Autozam Is a sub brand of Mazda for their economy cars and Kei cars, this is one of their kei cars, Suzuki designed the car and provided the drivetrain for it too, Mazda just took over the design. This car was supposed to compete with the Suzuki Cappuccino and Honda Beat. These three cars were considered the ABC Kei cars, the AZ-1 was the last of trio and production lasted two years because of the stock market crash in Japan, Mazda no longer saw a reason to continue production therefore making this the shortest production run out of the three and making it rare.
The fact it had gullwing doors also made it rare.
(Suzuki did make a rebadged version called the Suzuki Cara but badges and the front bumper changed)

Mazda did make a Mazda-Speed version which added a sporty hood, front bumper and spoiler, also upgraded the suspension and differential

Mazda Two (M2) also made a version which included a different hood, front bumper and spoiler.
Other than that I'm not sure what was done to it, could have had some engine tuning but I'm not sure, not much information online about the M2 1015 version or Mazda Two itself.
