That sounded like a plausible idea, so I took it upon myself to knock out a brief translation (aided by the abso-freaking-lutely awesome folks at InterTran, because while I recognize the language as Finnish, I sure don't speak it).

As it turns out, the ad looks like it might be for a display of some sort, perhaps akin to an auto show: the headline reads, roughly "Welcome the New Toyota Avensis!", while the lower left-hand corner lists the times on Saturday and Sunday when folks can go check it out, or "welcome" it, as it were.
Curiously, however, the remainder of the text espousing the prices and sales points of the Mazda 6 are all seemingly accurate, and reference the correct car.
Looks like it's just a case of a typesetter over at the ol' Helsingin Sanomat who went temporarily numb from the neck up.
Happens to the best of us.



EDIT:
Oooh. Jimi, with the one-minute sneak while I was proofreading.

Re: Toyota Ad!
Yes, we like to call that the QB sneak. Touchdown!

Maybe this'll teach a lesson about those novel-length posts you make!

Just playin' mofo.
