Challenge

Mazda Motors Germany sought to upgrade its digital presence by equipping its national network of dealers with modern websites.  

Each website needed to be quickly deployable, easy to maintain by the dealers themselves, and centrally manageable by Mazda’s headquarters. Balancing individuality and consistency across dozens of websites required a flexible yet structured content management solution.

Process 

Discover

We gathered insights from Mazda HQ and dealers to understand technical needs and user expectations. 

Our goal was to uncover user needs, technical requirements, and business goals. 

Define

We mapped out the system architecture, selecting TYPO3 as the flexible CMS backbone with a guided interface. 

Avenga’s experts shaped a scalable architecture aligning brand standards and dealer autonomy. 

Develop

We customized TYPO3 with PHP 7 and integrated it with a React SPA frontend, ensuring smooth API communication. 

Our developers engineered tailored solutions, delivering a fast platform ready for modular growth. 

Deliver

We launched an intuitive system enabling fast dealer site setup with centralized content control for Mazda HQ. 

The solution involved extending a CMS platform via APIs, enabling three core components to work in harmony: a consumer-facing frontend, a guided UI for dealer onboarding, central CMS access for Mazda HQ.

Partnering with Avenga the client received a usable and easy-to-set-up dealer website.  

  • Dealers can now launch their own branded websites in minutes using the guided interface. 
  • Content from Mazda HQ is automatically synchronized, ensuring consistency while allowing local customization. 
  • TYPO3’s advanced flexibility enabled modular content reuse, speeding up content deployment across all sites. 
  • The user experience—both for Mazda’s customers and its dealers—has been significantly enhanced.
