Mazda will get into the luxury car market with the launch of the new Mazda 9 in 2010. The Mazda 9 will feature the same Nagare (”flow) styling and will feature sliced glasshouse that meets the tailgate seamlessly, echoing the shape of a classic coupe and offering maximum space.

Mazda considers a new 929 (9, as it would be known under the current naming scheme) is a requisite in the US market and would likely be financially viable overseas where Mazda is booming.
