|---|---|---|---|
| The Mazda TAKERI concept car embodies Mazda’s “KODO – Soul of Motion” design theme in a midsize sedan with styling that reflects a sense of speed and excitement. TAKERI comes with the full-range of Mazda’s breakthrough SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY, including the next-generation SKYACTIV-D clean diesel engine ― which will be introduced to Japan in the CX-5 ― mated with Mazda’s unique i-stop idling stop system. It also features a revolutionary regenerative braking system that uses a large-capacity capacitor to significantly improve driving performance and fuel economy. TAKERI is the perfect showcase of Mazda’s drive toward emotional design, driving pleasure and environmental performance, all wrapped up in a midsize sedan. |  |

| i-ELOOP | |||
| The i-ELOOP regenerative braking system represents Step Two of Mazda’s technology development vision, the Building Block Strategy. The moment the driver lifts off the accelerator pedal a variable voltage alternator begins generating electricity at up to 25V before storing it in an Electric Double Layer Capacitor (ELDC). This electricity is used to power the vehicle’s electrical systems, such as the air conditioner, at times when he accelerator is depressed or when i-stop is functioning. As long as there is sufficient charge stored in the capacitor and battery, the system removes the need for the engine and alternator to generate electricity. As a result, engine power is increased by around 10% and fuel economy is enhanced. |  |
