It arrived two weeks before the local launch of the first generation Mazda Premacy. The Taiwanese market Ford Ixion MAV features exclusively designed front and rear with Ford's design identity and was launched in Taiwan in 1999. Due to the fact that Mazda was controlled by Ford Lio Ho from 1998, Ford models were able to be launched at an earlier date before equivalent Mazda models were launched, and at a more competitive price with better specifications. The Ford Ixion is a redesign of the first generation Premacy/Mazda5, designed by Ford Lio Ho in Taiwan. The first generation Premacy was also manufactured by China's FAW Haima Automobile where it is called the Haima Freema until it was replaced by the second generation Freema based on the same platform. The Taiwanese Ixion (later the Ixion MAV) was built until 2005. This generation Premacy was also sold in some Asian markets as the Ford Ixion, from 1999 until 2003. The second and third row seats could be folded and removed as on many other minivans. It was available with either front or all-wheel drive and was equipped with four-speed automatic transmission. When released in April 1999, the Mazda Premacy was one of the least expensive seven-seaters available on the market. The first generation Mazda Premacy was unveiled on 9 March 1999 at the Geneva Motor Show. The first generation Premacy was a two- or three-row, five- or seven-passenger vehicle, while the second generation adds a third row of seats for up to six passengers in American form, and seven passengers outside the United States. Ford Lio Ho in Taiwan, which assembles Mazda5 for the local market, adapted a re-badged version as the Ford i-Max from 2007 until 2011. The second generation onward is sold outside Japan as the Mazda5. A rebadged version was sold by Ford in a few Asian markets (including Japan) as the Ford Ixion or Ixion MAV. The first generation Premacy was built in Japan and exported to Europe and Asia. The Mazda Premacy ( Japanese: マツダ・プレマシー, Hepburn: Matsuda Puremashī) is a passenger minivan that was built by the Japanese manufacturer Mazda from 1999 to 2018.
