Mazda’s stunning Shinari concept car will make its debut down under during the Australian International Motor Show in Melbourne from July 1–10.

The Shinari Concept has already traveled to Shanghai, Los Angeles and Geneva, it’s now the turn of the Australian public to get close to Shinari, which embodies design elements that will make their way into future Mazda vehicles.

Shinari is a four-door, four-seater sports coupe which perfectly expresses Mazda’s KODO (Japanese for Soul of Motion) design theme. It was created by Ikuo Maeda in his new role as Mazda’s global director of design.

“This is a concept that truly captures KODO design and provides an insight into the future direction for Mazda design,” said Mazda Australia Managing Director, Doug Dickson. “It is really exciting to have SHINARI in Australia for the first time and to give the Australian public the opportunity to see this truly stunning vehicle up close and in the metal.”
