MAZDA officials played down the recent industry rush to make hybrids, vowing yesterday to boost fuel efficiency via cheaper methods such as reducing the weight of regular vehicles.

Seita Kanai, a Mazda Motor Corp director who oversees research and development, said even in 2015, the gasoline engine will account for nearly all autos globally with electric vehicles and hybrids making up a niche market.

He said improving the fuel-efficiency of gasoline engines, developing lighter car-bodies and reducing fuel consumption during idling are the challenges Mazda is taking up to make their models green.
