Seems like Mazda wasn't even in the list. When the Mozilla site dropped I immeaditly searched for Mazda and either Mozilla didn't test them or Mazda don't collect any meaningful info. They are old school in many ways. This mentality sucks sometimes:

-their attempts at lowering fleet emissions is to just drop trucks and make all their cars use a series of efficient engines but not actually adopt EVs seriously until way down the line. This meets the goal(others get to the same number by selling gas guzzlers + compliance EVs) but is really against the grain.

Other times this old school mentality is good.

-insisting on not using touch screens so drivers dont get frustrated and can focus on the road

-sticking with traditional transmission instead of those god awful CVTs

-probably not adopting the infrastructure to make mass surveillance in their cars possible (or so I guess).
