MAZDA FAMILIA

(Redirected from Mazda Protege)

The 'Mazda Familia' was Mazda's subcompact/compact car family, also known as the 'Mazda 323' in Europe, North America, New Zealand and Australia, and later known as the 'Mazda GLC' then 'Mazda Protegé' in North America, produced in Japan between 1976 and 2003. The first Familias were styled by Italy's Giugiaro and shown in 1963 as the Mazda 1000 Berlina. The next generation (joined by the Wankel-powered R100 version) were among the first Mazda cars sold in the United States. 10,589,052 examples of this car were sold worldwide.
Later Familias appeared with a succession of names around the world, including '1000', '1200', and '1300', '800', '808', and '818', 'Mizer', 'GLC', '323' and 'Protegé' ''(sic)''.
In the United States it was originally known as the 'GLC', then the '323', then finally from 1990 on as the 'Protegé'. In South Africa it was known as the 'Etude'. The Ford/Mazda/Volvo C1 platform-based 'Mazda3' replaced this platform for 2004, though Mazda still contributed much to the project.
323s were built in Hiroshima, Japan, although they were also assembled in Taiwan, Malaysia, South Africa, Colombia and New Zealand.
In North America the 323/Protegé was typically more expensive than its entry-level competitors such as the Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic, partly due to its manufacture in Japan, which is perhaps one reason that it is not as ubiquitous as those cars. A perennial favorite of US car magazines, the model is well regarded for its spirited handling. It was also the first small Japanese car to cross over to the EPA "compact" class way back in 1986 (followed by the Mirage in 1989, Corolla in 1993, Sentra in 2000 and Civic in 2001).
It formed the basis of the Ford Laser and Meteor
in Asia, Australia and other markets, (known as the Mercury Tracer in the United States) and from 1991, the Ford Escort in North America.

1964


The first production Familia appeared in October 1963, and was a commercial two-door wagon called the 'Familia Van'. It was joined in 1964 with a sedan, and was later sold in other markets as the '800'. Both were powered by a 782 cc aluminum inline 4 engine.
The Familia received a larger 985 cc engine for 1965, and a coupe variant was introduced as well.


1967


The new Familia appeared in 1967 with a 987 cc engine. It was sold as the 'Mazda 1000' in some markets. It also formed the basis for the Mazda R100 rotary car. A larger 1169 cc I4 engine came along later, becoming the 'Mazda 1200' for export.
The 1970 Familia featured a 1.3 L TC engine and new styling. It was exported as the 'Mazda 1300' and 'Mazda 818'.
Engines:

★ 1968-1973 - 987 cc I4, 50 hp (37 kW)/56 ft·lbf (77 N·m)

★ 1968-1970 - 1.2 L (1169 cc) I4, 58 hp (43 kW)/69 ft·lbf (94 N·m)

★ 1970-1973 - 1.3 L (1272 cc) ''TC'' I4, 2 barrel, 69 hp (51 kW)/67 ft·lbf (92 N·m)
1200 (USA)

The "1200" was offered in the United States in 1971 and again in 1973. The 1971 version was the first piston-powered Familia sold in the United States and arrived alongside its rotary R100 in 2- and 4-door forms. It was replaced by the 808 the next year. The name returned for 1973 as the base-model economy Mazda. The company focused on performance for two more years, dropping the economy car, then returned with the Mizer in 1976.
Engines:

★ 1971, 1973 - 1.2 L (1169 cc) I4, 58 hp (43 kW)/69 ft·lbf (94 N·m)


1973


The 1973 Familia 'Preso' featured a 1272 cc engine. It was sold as the 'Mazda 808' in some export markets such as New Zealand and Australia and 'Mazda 818' in many others (presumably due to the usage of numbers with a middle zero by Peugeot for its automotive models).
This generation was available in coupe, sedan, and station wagon forms. Engines were inline 4 cylinders and included a 1272 cc, a 1490 cc, and a 1586 cc option.
Engines:

★ 1973-1976 - 987 cc I4, 50 hp (37 kW)/56 ft·lbf (77 N·m)

★ 1970-1973 - 1.3 L (1272 cc) ''TC'' I4, 2 barrel, 69 hp (51 kW)/67 ft·lbf (92 N·m)

★ 1973-1976 - 1.6 L (1586 cc) I4, 80 hp (60 kW)/91 ft·lbf (124 N·m)
Mizer (USA)

For 1976 and 1977, the 1.3 L version was sold as the 'Mazda Mizer' in the United States.
Engines:

★ 1976-1977 - 1.3 L (1272 cc) ''TC'' I4, 2 barrel, 69 hp (51 kW)/67 ft·lbf (92 N·m)
808 (USA)

The 'Mazda 808' was sold in 1972 and 1973 (on the previous platform), then updated and sold through 1977. This name was given only to the 1.6 L version of the Familia.
The 808 cost $2997, which was some $200 above the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. The car came with a "pleasant" 4-speed manual or 3-speed automatic transmission.
Engines:

★ 1972-1977 - 1.6 L (1590 cc) ''1600'' I4, 1-barrel, 70 hp (52 kW)/82 ft·lbf (111 N·m)


1977


Mazda Familia 1977-80

The 'Great Little Car' or 'GLC' debuted for 1977 as a standout in the rear wheel drive subcompact crowd, replacing the 818/Mizer. There was a choice of hatchbacks and station wagon bodies, both available with a 3 or 5 door bodystyle. Three Mazda engines were on offer, the 985 cc PC, 1272 cc TC, or 1416 cc UC. It shared many parts with the older 'Mazda RX-3'.
In South Africa a 1600 cc model was available - however this model did not utilize a Mazda engine. In order to satisfy that country's local content regulations, a Mitsubishi Saturn 1.6 litre unit was utilized.
The range was replaced in 1980, however the station wagon models continued in production until 1985. In 1981 a facelift was given to the wagon range, to give a front end treatment similar to Mazda's front-wheel drive 323/Familia range.
The 'Mazda 323' name appeared for the first time on export models.
Engines:

★ 1977-1980 - 1.0 L (985 cc) ''PC'', 45 hp (33 kW)/51 ft·lbf (69 N·m)

★ 1977-1980 - 1.3 L (1272 cc) ''TC'', 60 hp (44 kW)

★ 1977-1980 - 1.4 L (1415 cc) ''UC'', 70 hp (52 kW)
GLC (USA)

For the United States, the GLC was only offered with one engine at a time. The new GLC overlapped with the old-style Mizer for part of 1977 and was produced through 1980 before being replaced by the next-generation GLC.
The first 'Mazda GLC' was a version of the fourth-generation Japan-market Mazda Familia.
It was available in several body variants:

★ Five-door four-seat hatch.

★ Three-door four-seat hatch.

★ Five-door four-seat station wagon.

★ Three-door four-seat station wagon.

★ Three-door two-seat van with an extended roof profile.
Several of these were available in several trim levels.
Engines:

★ 1.0 L PC, 45 hp (33.6 kW)/51 ft·lbf (69 N·m)

★ 1.3 L TC (1977-1978)

★ 1.4 L UC (1979-1980)
Still later, a five-speed manual gearbox was introduced as an alternative to the original four-speed manual gearbox, and at the same time the original 7 in (17.8 cm) round sealed beam headlights were replaced with square sealed beam units on all models except the van, together with a general styling and mechanical upgrade. A three-speed automatic gearbox was also available throughout the model run.
Production of the van variant only continued after 1980 (still with round headlights), as there was no front wheel drive replacement.


1980


The 1980 Familia was entirely new - it was Mazda's first front-engine, front wheel drive subcompact car. It had been developed with some input from Ford, and had a twin called the Ford Laser (and Ford Meteor, for its four-door model in Australia). The 1.4 L UC engine was dropped, and offered the newer 1.3 L E3 and 1.5 L E5 as options.
Engines:

★ 1980-1985 - 1.1 L (1071 cc) ''E1'', 1 barrel, 55 hp (40 kW)/58 ft·lbf (79 N·m)

★ 1980-1985 - 1.3 L (1296 cc) ''E3'', 2 barrel, 68 hp (50 kW)/70 ft·lbf (95 N·m)

★ 1980-1985 - 1.5 L (1490 cc) ''E5'', 2 barrel, 75 hp (55 kW)/85 ft·lbf (116 N·m)

★ 1980-1985 - 1.5 L (1490 cc) ''E5S'', 2x2 barrel, 85 hp (63 kW)/88 ft·lbf (120 N·m)
GLC (USA)

The second-generation American GLC appeared in 1981. It was only offered with a single engine (the 2 barrel 1.5 L) and lasted through 1985, after which it was replaced by the next-generation Mazda 323.
The 1980 323 featured a 1.5 L engine, and was front wheel drive. It was available as a hatchback and sedan. The 1980 Carol/323 was the first front-engine, front-wheel drive vehicle from Mazda since the rare R130. A station wagon version, which was simply a facelifted version of the previous rear-drive model, was also sold. The 323 was ''Wheels'' magazine's Car of the Year for 1980.
The 1980 Mazda GLC Manufactured 04/1980 was rear wheel drive. It was not the 323 model.
Engine options:

★ 1980-1987 - 1.1 L ''E1'' I4, 55 hp (41 kW) and 79 N·m (58 ft·lbf)

★ 1980-1987 - 1.3 L ''E3'' I4, 60 hp (44 kW) and 95 N·m (70 ft·lbf)

★ 1980-1987 - 1.5 L ''E5'' I4, 75 hp (56 kW) and 116 N·m (86 ft·lbf)

★ 1981-1985 - 1.5 L (1490 cc) ''E5'', 2 barrel, 75 hp (55 kW)/85 ft·lbf (116 N·m)

1985


The 1985 Familia featured many updates. It was available as a hatchback or sedan only for the first year, a wagon being added for 1986.
As before, it spawned a Ford Laser twin sold in the Asia-Pacific. The Laser sedan and wagon were nearly identical to the Familia but with a Ford grille. By contrast the Laser hatchback models used panels completely different to the Familia's, yet was styled similar.
The Familia/323 formed the basis of the 1991 Ford Escort and Mercury Tracer. In 1991, the South African-made model was exported to the United Kingdom as the Sao Penza. For many years, it continued in South Africa in hatchback and pickup truck (Branded Ford Bantam and Mazda Rustler)forms under the Mazda and Ford brands as entry-level models. This generation was sold through the 1989 model year in the United States. The wagon continued alongside the succeeding generation in most markets until 1995, with a new grille and lights.
The model remained in production in South Africa until 2003, as an entry level model, also being sold as the Ford Tonic, and was briefly sold in the UK as the Sao Penza. A locally designed pick-up called the Rustler was also produced, and sold as the Ford Bantam.
A rare cabriolet version was also produced in both Mazda 323 and Ford Laser (323 panels from firewall back) forms. This was not a conversion, as it was actually a factory built model designed to be a cabriolet from the outset.
Engines:

★ 1985-1986 - 1.1 L (1071 cc) ''E1'', 2 barrel, 8-valve, 55 hp (40 kW)/59 ft·lbf (80 N·m)

Mazda 323 Sedan (USDM)

1989


This generation of Familia had hatchback, sedan and wagon (carried over from 1985) variants, which shared no body panels — a policy that may have led to Mazda's financial difficulties in the 1990s. The Familia Astina was a 5-door fastback version of this Familia, sold as the 323F or 323 Astina elsewhere.
The 1989/1990 'BG' Familia was available in hatchback or sedan formats, with front- or all-wheel drive and a 1.3 L, 1.5 L, 1.6 L, or 1.8 L gas or 1.7 L diesel engine. In North America, the 323 sedan became the ProtegĂ©, while the 323 hatchback remained the same name. The ProtegĂ© was in competition with the Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic, while the 323 hatchback competed with the Geo Metro and Toyota Tercel.
The 'GT' model, only sold in Canada in 1990, 1991 and 1993, came with the 1.8  BP engine also found on the 1994-97 Mazda Miata. It borrowed the interior from the GTX model, and had all factory options including a rear trunk spoiler not available in America. Ford also had a twin called the Laser in the Asian Pacific for this generation, but sold it in the United States as the Escort. It no longer resembled the Mazda versions externally.
The 'JDM GTX' model featured all wheel drive and a turbocharged 1.8 L BP engine. In the U.S. the Protege came with a 1.8 L non-turbo, with the AWD. In 1992, the rare JDM 'GT-R' version was added featuring a number of performance enhancements over the GTX model: a stronger gearbox (G5M-R), sodium filled valve stems, an aggressive front bumper and bonnet vents, and an upgraded turbo.
In Japan, the 5-door hatchback, featuring a distinct front end with pop-up headlights, was sold as the 'Mazda Familia Astina' and 'Eunos 100'. Trim lines in Japan included ''Clair'', ''Interplay'', ''Supreme'', and ''GT-X''.
The car donated its mechanicals/Unibody to the 1991-1996 Ford Escort and Mercury Tracer and 1994-1997 Kia Sephia in North America, as well as the Ford Laser in Australia and South Africa.
In America, the LX version of the Protegé became known for its vast interior room (for its class), sporty handling, and revvy 125 horsepower engine. LX models also had 14-inch wheels, front and rear disc brakes, and dual stabilizer bars.
Production of the 1994 model ended on May 24, 1994.
Engines:

★ 1989-1991 - 1.6 L (1598 cc) ''B6'', 1 barrel, 16-valve, 87 hp (64 kW)/92 ft·lbf (125 N·m)

★ 1989-1994 - 1.8 L (1840 cc) ''BP'', FI, 16-valve DOHC, 125 hp (96 kW)/118 ft·lbf (160 N·m)

1994


The 1995 'BH' model was available internationally (The 'BH' model was released for the Japanese Domestic Market the previous year, in 1994) with both front wheel drive and all wheel drive. Production of this generation started on August 8, 1994, and ceased on June 18, 1998.
However, Japan did see an unusual model with this generation after 1995, with the cancellation of the 1985-generation station wagon. The 'Mazda Familia Van' offered after this year was a rebadged Nissan Sunny California, which was essentially the station wagon version of the Nissan Sunny.
This generation of Familia grew considerably, with the four-door sedan's wheelbase only a few millimetres short of the then-current Toyota Camry, a mid-size car.
The rare North American ES model is the only Protegé that came with the Miata's 1.8-liter twin-cam engine (though the internals were not the same), 4-wheel disc brakes, and dual stabilizer bars.
Engines:

★ 1994-1998 - 1.5 L (1489 cc) ''Z5'', FI, 16-valve DOHC, 89 hp (66 kW)/97 ft·lbf (132 N·m)

★ 1994-1996 - 1.8 L (1840 cc) ''B8'', 114 hp (84 kW)/115 ft·lbf (157 N·m)

★ 1994-1996 - 2.0 L (1995 cc) ''KF'' V6, FI, 24-valve DOHC, 144 hp (106 kW)/132 ft·lbf (180 N·m)

★ 1995-1999 - 1.3 L (1324 cc) ''B3'', 1 barrel, 74 hp (54 kW)/77 ft·lbf (105 N·m)

★ 1995-1999 - 1.8 L (1840 cc) ''BP'', FI, 16-valve DOHC, 131 hp (96 kW)/118 ft·lbf (160 N·m)

★ 1995-1999 - 2.0 L (1998 cc) ''RF'', Diesel, 8-valve, 71 hp (52 kW)/94 ft·lbf (128 N·m)
Models:

★ 4-door sedan (called the ProtegĂ© in the US)

★ 3-door hatchback ('Familia Neo' in Japan, '323c' in Europe 'Laser Lynx')

★ A tall wagon, called the 'Familia Van', was also available in Japan. In South Africa, this model was known as the 'Mazda Etude'.
323F/Astina/Lantis

A five door hatchback and four door sedan, both featuring pillarless doors and distinct sheetmetal from other 323s was sold in Japan as the 'Mazda Lantis', in Australia and South Africa as the 'Mazda 323 Astina', in Colombia as the 'Mazda Allegro' and in Europe as the 'Mazda 323f'. They were built on platforms distinct from the other '323's. The bodyshape was designed by former Porsche designers. The 'Lantis' was on the CB, a minor update of the CA that underpinned the luxury Mazda Xedos 6 and Eunos 500. The European '323f' was designated BA, but was actually almost identical to the CB, and had little to do with other B platforms. These models were sold with the 1.5 L and 1.8 L engines seen in the rest of the 323 range, as well as a 2.0 L V6 shared with the Eunos 500.
Familia Neo/323c/Laser Lynx

The Familia Neo started production for the Japanese Domestic Market in 1994. Ford released a rebadged version which was mechanicly the same although different bumpers, headlights and bonnet were fitted, badged as the Ford Laser-Lynx in Japan and Australia. This model was only availble as the Ford Laser-Lynx in the Australian market, as Mazda already had the 323 Astina Hatch filling the gap for a hatchback in the mazda range. Oddly enough to contradict this, Mazda Australia also offered two 323 sedans, the Astina/Lantis hardtop and the 323 Protege until production of both models ceased in 1998. This was released new in New Zealand as the Mazda 323 Neo. It featured a glass rear hatch, much like the Honda CR-X. Aesthetically the Familia Neo was very close in looks to a Mazda Lantis/323F and equated to a 2 door version and also shared the Lantis suspension. The top spec Mazda Neo was fitted with a DOHC 1800 cc BP engine which produced around 100kw, this was the same engine fitted to the base model Mazda Lantis. It was also sold for a single year (1995) in Canada as '323 Neo GS'. In Europe it was named Mazda 323 C (stand for coupe) and it was equipped with 1.3 L SOHC (75 PS), 1.5 L DOHC 16V (88 PS), and 1.8 L DOHC 16V (115 PS) engine.
There was a MAZDASPEED touring kit released in Asia for Familia 96-98:


1995-1996 Mazda Protege LX (US)

1997-1998 Mazda Protege ES (US)

Mazda 323F

1995 Mazda 323 (Canada)





1999


A redesigned ninth-generation ''BJ'' Familia was introduced on June 9, 1998 as a 1999 model. Body styles were the sedan, 5-door 'S-Wagon' (sold as the 'Protegé5' in the United States and Canada), 3-door hatchback, and traditional 5-door ''Wagon''. A ''4EC'' automatic transmission and two 5-speed manual transmissions are available (the manual is better for the performance oriented person). All wheel drive is optional.
The 1999 BJ platform was updated with a 4-door sedan or 5-door hatchback chassis based on the larger Mazda 626 and more engine choices. The Japanese Mazda Familia again got all wheel drive as an option. In America, the ES's engine was still 1.8 liters large but was a shrunken version of the 626's engine rather than the Miata's more exciting motor. Disc brakes on the ES were also lost.
The 'Familia Van' and 'Familia Business Wagon' were introduced for 2000, and continued to be supplied by Nissan under an OEM deal, based on the Wingroad.
The entire line was updated for 2001 with sharper styling, a revised suspension, and a new audio system.
A 2.0 L gas engine appeared in 2001 on the Japanese market Sport 20. An tall wagon version of the Familia called the 'Mazda Premacy' was also available, and which was sold in Japan as the 'Ford Ixion'. In 1999, Ford of Japan ceased to market Mazda-based models, and the Ford Laser, along with the Ixion, Telstar and Festiva, was dropped.
For the 2001 model year in North America, Mazda introduced the limited-edition 'ProtegĂ© MP3' featuring a new sport-tuned suspension, 17 in wheels, 10 hp (7.5 kW) extra for a total of 140 hp (104 kW), and a 450-watt Kenwood MP3 stereo. Only 1500 were produced. 2001 also saw ProtegĂ©s getting a sharper face lift, the ES getting its rear disc brakes back and a stiffer suspension, and the 1.8 L engine growing to 2.0 L.
2002 saw the introduction of a station wagon version called ProtegĂ©5. All Proteges got the 2.0 L engine this year.
In 2003, Mazdaspeed introduced the 'Mazdaspeed ProtegĂ©', an update to the ProtegĂ© MP3 that had a 170 hp (127 kW)/160 ft·lbf (217 N·m) turbocharged engine, 17 in wheels, larger four-wheel disc brakes, and a Kenwood stereo system that included an amplifier, and 8 inch sub. Mazda then followed with a mid year change dubbed the "2003.5." This model included a different aero-kit, darker painted wheels, and custom interior pieces. In total, there were only 4,750 Mazdaspeed ProtegĂ© models produced. This was the last year for the production of the ProtegĂ©. ES models got a manumatic transmission.
This generation went into production on September 29, 1998, and the very last model rolled off the assembly line on October 2, 2003. It remains in production in Taiwan, where it is also badged as the 'Ford Activa', which, unlike the 'Ford Laser', has no styling changes from the 323, except for the badges. (In Southeast Asia, a version of the last Laser is still assembled in Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines as the 'Ford Lynx'.) This Generation is also still in production as at 2007, in Some South American countries (Ecuador,Colombia and Venezuela), badged as The Mazda Allegro. Each Allegro keep in the styling of the last generation 323/Protege/Astina/Familia.
In Colombia, production of the Mazda 323 continued well until 2003, built by its local subsidiary, the Compañía Colombiana Automotriz. The 323 remains to this day one of the most successful cars made in the country and many models made across the years can still be seen in the streets of most Colombian and Andean cities. Oddly enough, the "boxy" look that characterized the vehicle during the 1980s and the early 1990s remained until production's end due to the demand of the local market for the car's lines.
