Updated Ford Ranger based pickup has entered production.
Mazda has officially unveiled the 2016 Mazda BT-50 (facelift) pickup following several leaks over the last month.
Changes are modest with the front-end donning headlights with a darker tint and a new twin slat grille revised with a chrome border. Though an image has not been released, the rear combination lamp is new with a twin-deck design, and so is the alloy wheel design.
Mazda has not spoken about the interior but says it is designed "to give a higher-quality feel". A rearview camera has been added to the equipment.
The 2016 Mazda BT-50 could feature the same 2.2-liter four-cylinder turbodiesel engine rated at 160 PS and 385 Nm, along with the new 3.2-liter five-cylinder diesel engine generating 200 PS and 470 Nm, borrowing its mechanical carriage from the updated Ford Ranger that has just gone on sale in Thailand.
