Mazda Chief Technology Officer Ichiro Hirose explains the ‘ multi-pathway ’ concept
Japan ’ s exciting vision for the future of mobility , a display that included the Mazda Iconic SP . When the topic of carbon neutrality came up , CEO Masahiro Moro discussed a concept called ‘ Multi-Pathway ’.
“ The big theme is carbon neutrality , which is driving the entire mobility transformation ,” he said .
“ But carbon neutrality is too big for an individual company to go after . It ’ s a joint effort . So , for the JMS and the G7 Hiroshima summit , we issued a statement about how we are approaching carbon neutrality as a whole industry , which we call multi-pathway .”
Multi-pathway means developing e-fuels , biofuels and liquid hydrogen , enhancing sustainability without sacrificing on quality . EVs like the Mazda 創 Arata , which was recently showcased to the Chinese EV market , embody the multi-pathway approach .
It means offering diverse solutions , acknowledging the paths that spring forth all around you and the responsibilities you bear in creating and walking down each one . This interconnected philosophy bears many similarities with approaches to Scope 3 .
