The Mazda Capella was a mid-size car built by Mazda from 1970 until 2002 and sold in export markets as the Mazda 626, with earlier cars called the 616 and 618. It was introduced in May 1970 as an intermediate step between the smaller Familia and the larger Luce, with 1.5 and 1.6 litre four-cylinder overhead-camshaft engines. The first generation was also offered with a Wankel rotary engine, known in Japan as the Capella Rotary and abroad as the Mazda RX-2, which gave Japanese buyers a road tax advantage over a larger piston engine. It was assembled in New Zealand and South Africa, shared its platform with the Ford Telstar and Probe, and was named after the bright star in the constellation Auriga. The Mazda6, sold in Japan as the Atenza, succeeded it in 2002.
