THE NEXT GENERATION IS HERE
Mazda 3 embodies two characters. Sporty curves elicit a sense of excitement and freedom in the Hatch. Sleek and elegant proportions give the impression of a single, dignified brushstroke in the Sedan.
CRAFTSMANSHIP MEETS EMOTION
Wherever you’re headed, discover life’s experiences while settled in the cabin of the Mazda3. Meticulously crafted by the Mazda Takumi––artisans and craftsmen who hone their skills for years, even decades, to achieve mastery. Materials and finishes selectively chosen by them––tailored just for you. From designer to driver, this connection creates a formidable bond between you and your Mazda.
A SMOOTHER DRIVE
Skyactiv-Vehicle Dynamics with G-Vectoring Control Plus is a highly efficient vehicle movement control system that works by subtly adjusting power delivery and shifting vehicle weight upon turn entry and throughout the turn. This allows the driver to achieve a smoother, less fatiguing drive.
BEAUTY THROUGH SUBTRACTION
Contours that capture movement, even at a standstill. Simplified essential characteristics that embrace the Japanese philosophy of “less is more.” This is the compelling evolution in our design aesthetic. Reflections of light across its surface create more complex and intriguing shapes. Poised and dignified, it beckons to be driven.
Features
Exhilaration has always run in the Mazda3 family. And the latest Mazda3 continues this legacy.
DESIGN
Liberating the Spirits
A design that liberates the spirit. With sensuous, free-flowing curved surfaces that reflect your ever-changing surroundings, evoking powerful emotions of freedom and self-expression.
Elevated Design
Opening up a world beyond conventions, where only you set the limits to your imagination and what you can achieve. It’s design elevated to a provoking work of art.
Emotional and Practical
Inside, the cabin invites you to get in and go, with every detail considered and centered on you to give both emotional and practical satisfaction.
Safety
i-ACTIVSENSE® SAFETY TECHNOLOGY
Confidence-building reassurance for the driver, and an enjoyable driving experience for all occupants. These are the fundamental aims of Mazda Proactive Safety. And with these twin goals, Mazda expanded the concept of safety, taking it beyond the conventional thinking on advanced safety technologies to also include the driving position, information layout, visibility, and driving dynamics.
CRUISING & TRAFFIC SUPPORT (CTS)
CTS helps reduce driver fatigue when in traffic jams on the highway. When engaged, CTS automatically controls vehicle speed to keep a suitable distance from the vehicle ahead, and also assists with steering torque to maintain proper lane position through bends
Lane-keep Assist System (LAS)
A forward sensing camera detects lane markings and assists the steering to keep you in lane. The system also alerts you when it judges an unintended lane departure is imminent by vibrating the steering wheel or with an audible alarm. When the system determines lane departure is intentional (use of turn signals, etc) steering assistance is cancelled and no warnings are given. The system operates at speeds above approximately 60km/h.
DRIVER MONITORING
Inattention and fatigue are common causes of accidents. Driver Monitoring’s infrared camera and LED mounted in the centre display constantly check the driver for drowsiness, inattention and fatigue at two levels: Attention (onset of inattention or drowsiness) and Caution (increased levels).
FRONT CROSS TRAFFIC A LERT (FCTA)
When entering a T junction, collisions with vehicles approaching from the front left and right blind spots can easily occur. FCTA uses front side radars to monitor these front diagonal blind spots and warn the driver of approaching vehicles.
SMART BRAKE SUPPORT [REAR]
When reversing, low objects behind the vehicle are hard, or even impossible, to see from the driver’s seat. SBS-R’s rear-facing ultrasonic sensor detects such obstacles behind the vehicle when reversing at speeds between approximately 2 and 8 km/h
Performance
COMFORT IN COMMAND
Your driving position affects every interaction you have with the car. It’s where driving pleasure begins, and it’s one more place where Mazda puts the focus on you to assure natural posture and ultimate ease of operation
HUMAN-MACHINE INTERFACE (HMI)
Knowledge is power, but poorly presented information results in stress and confusion. So Mazda’s HMI is entirely human-centric in its design, keeping you informed while leaving you free to concentrate on driving.
Technology
SKYACTIV-VEHICLE ARCHITECTURE
From the time we learn to walk, we learn to control our centre of gravity — and thus our balance — entirely without conscious thought. It becomes as natural as breathing. And it is the inspiration for Mazda’s Skyactiv-Vehicle Architecture, aimed at enabling you to fully maintain your balance even inside the vehicle
G-VECTORING CONTROL PLUS (GVC PLUS)
GVC Plus is one more way Mazda’s human-centric engineering makes vehicle movement more responsive, more confidenceinspiring and just more comfortable.
