The first generation was a heavily modified 3rd generation Mazda Carol.[3] It has a 52-58 hp 660 cc gasoline engine.[2] It has a 30-40 L fuel tank.[2] The car started out with 3 doors; however, in 1999 Mitsuoka changed it into a 5-door car based on the 4th generation Mazda Carol and then 1st generation Mira Gino in 2002.[1] The price ranges from 911,000 yen to 1,359,750 yen.[2] Mitsuoka described the Ray as "like a dignified and graceful flower."[4]

Reception
The Mitsuoka Ray received mixed reviews, earning a place on the Ugliest Cars in Britain list due to problems with quality and design.[4] However, it was chosen the most attractive car in Australia.[citation needed]
