Mazda will be heading to the 2014 edition of the Tokyo Auto Salon (TAS) in the second week of January with a group of racing, tuned and pre-production concept cars, some of which will be familiar to those of you who followed the brand’s presence at this year’s SEMA Show in November.

The ones we are referring to are the “Axela Sport Mazda Design Concept 2014” and “Atenza Sedan Mazda Design Concept 2014”, which are more or less the same as the SEMA Show Mazda3 and Mazda6 ClubSport studies respectively, with different paint jobs.

Other cars to be found at Mazda’s TAS stand will be the North American Mazda6 Skyactiv-D diesel-powered racer from the Grand AM GX series, and three pre-production studies, the Mazda6 estate-based “Atenza Wagon Mazda Design Concept 2014”, Mazda3 sedan-based “Axela Sedan Mazda Design Concept 2014”, and the “CX-5 Mazda Design Concept 2014”, all featuring mild aero modifications and bespoke wheel setups.
