Average monthly sales for Mazda 3 sedans in the next three months are expected to be 50% higher than previously expected due to the minor model change introduced yesterday, according to John Ray, managing director of Mazda Sales (Thailand) Co. More than 13,000 of the compact sedans have been sold locally since their debut in 2004 in Thailand.
