With a 22 per cent recorder year-on-year-rise in 2015, Mazda arrived at the prestigious Fleet Show with an award-winning range and record sales.

Colin Oliver, fleet operations manager at professional services firm PwC that runs user-chooser fleet of about 1,750 vehicles, emerged from driving Mazda CX-3 1.5-liter SKYACTIV-D with CO2 emissions as low as 105g/km and exceptional fuel economy as 70.6pg had something to say:
