first dedicated EV slips to 2029 after ~50% EV spend cut.

Mazda’s EV pivot reads bearish—its dedicated EV platform is pushed to 2029 and EV spend through 2030 is cut nearly 50%.

Mazda is delaying its first dedicated EV platform to at least 2029 while sharply reducing battery-electric investment through 2030 from about 1.5 trillion yen to roughly 830 billion yen (about a ~50% reduction). The pause may help near-term capital allocation, but the KOL expects this could make Mazda “too late to the EV party,” especially versus peers ramping faster.
