Review: 2022 Mazda BT-50 4x4
The nameplate may not enjoy the same recall as its competitors, but the Mazda B-Series has had a very long history—one that dates back all the way to 1961. This makes its lineage one of the longest in the pickup truck segment predating the Toyota Hilux (1968), Mitsubishi L200 (1978), Ford Ranger (1983), and Nissan Navara (1985). Now, one could argue that the reason why it hasn’t been a household name is that it was made by three different companies throughout its 61-year history.
