The Mazda Cosmo (マツダ・コスモ, Matsuda Kosumo) was an automobile produced by Mazda from 1967 to 1996. During its production run, the Cosmo served as a "halo" vehicle for Mazda, with the first Cosmo successfully launching the Mazda Wankel engine. The final generation of the Cosmo served as Mazda's flagship vehicle in Japan, sold as the Eunos Cosmo through its luxury Eunos division in Japan.
Mazda decided on the name "cosmo", reflecting international cultural fascination with the Space Race, Mazda wanted to showcase the Mazda Wankel engine as forward-thinking, with focus on future developments and technology.
