Mazda Motor Cooperation announces the release of the limited-production of Bongo Friendee "City Runner NAVI Edition." Equipped with a DVD navigation system with a back monitor, the City Runner NAVI Edition goes on sale today at Mazda and Mazda Anfini dealerships throughout Japan. The City Runner NAVI edition is based on 2WD inline four-cylinder 2.0-litter "RS-V Aero" with normal roof and V6 2.5-litter "RF-S Aero" with normal roof and "auto free top." The vehicle boasts a DVD navigation system with a back monitor, which attracts young and middle-aged families, and special decal for limited edition. A new body color Titanium Gray Metallic has been added to the normal roof type, to express its individuality and cool style. Besides, the "auto free top" type, which creates a loft area over the roof, is adopted with a spring up seat to create more spacious cargo area when the seat is unfolded. With the equipment, the "City Runner" is affordably priced, with only a 100,000 yen increase from the base model. Sales volume of this edition is limited to 1,000 units. Mazda envisions the production of V6 2.5-litter gasoline engine-model Bongo Friendee to come to an end in August 2002.
