The Mazda Motor Europe team received support from BASF Coatings for colors and materials to capture the essence of its new concept car – Kiyora. In Japanese, the word kiyora means clean and pure.

Designers from the two companies collaborated closely to produce a blue-green color. The man in charge of this project for BASF Coatings is Stefan Richter, Key Account Manager OEM Aftersales for automotive refinish products.
