Overview
Mazda has a long history of building its own diesel engines, with the exception of a few units that were built under license.
The Perkins 200 series engines were manufactured by licensee Toyo Kogo for use in automotive and other applications. Perkins 4. 135, 4. 154, and 4. 182 manufactured replacement engine parts are used interchangeably in the Mazda S2, XA, and HA engines, respectively.
