If I think you mean that Mazda is banking that other countries will still want gas cars, that's a pretty realistic point. For example, countries like India and some South American countries don't have as stringent safety standards. I think that Tata Nano cost a few grand in India but when they were looking at bringing it stateside the price ballooned to over ten grand because of all of the additional safety features needed to make it NHTSA compliant.
