The Mazda3 is loved around the world for its combination of peppy handling, responsiveness and sporty style, and its affordable price. The improvements made to the 2020 model are sure to excite any Mazda3 devotees, and turn non-believers into diehard fans.

Let’s take a look at all the reasons why the 2020 Mazda3 will blow you away.

Skyactiv-Vehicle Architecture

The 2020 Mazda3 is built with the auto manufacturer’s patented Skyactiv-Vehicle Architecture, which responds effortlessly and naturally to the driver’s every intention behind the wheel. Mazda is known for its design philosophy Janba Ittai, a Japanese phrase loosely translating to "horse and rider as one."

It’s through the Skyactiv-Vehicle Architecture that the driver feels supremely connected to their car, as if it knows what you want to do before you do it. This human-centred design philosophy is based on the human body’s innate ability to balance itself, and makes driving more comfortable and less tiring.

Visit your local Mazda dealer to build your dream vehicle by choosing exactly which trim and which options you’d like on your new Mazda3, and look out for Skyactiv-Vehicle Architecture.

i-Activ All Wheel Drive

For the first time, Mazda’s i-Activ safety features are available in the Mazda3! The i-Activ system uses 27 sensors to constantly monitor road and driving conditions, and enables the vehicle itself to respond accordingly.

For example, if the system determines that roads are slippery due to ice or rain and more torque is needed for the rear wheel, it can send additional power specifically to that wheel right at the moment it’s needed. This keeps you safe and stable no matter what the conditions, and it also does so in a way that’s particularly fuel-efficient for an All-Wheel Drive system.

i-Activsense Safety Features

This suite of available advanced features will effortlessly help to keep you, passengers and everybody on the road safer. You’ll love having safety like this, especially when driving with the family.

The vehicle itself helps you understand the proximity of road hazards so you can avoid them easily. Blind Spot Monitoring can identify when there’s a vehicle in your blind spot using radars to scan behind you. There will be an alert on the appropriate side-view mirror, so you can be extra safe when changing lanes.

Rear Cross Traffic Alert makes backing up a cinch, perfect for when exiting the driveway or a crowded parking lot. Downtown drivers will love Smart City Brake Support, which detects objects ahead at low speeds and automatically moves the brake pads closer to the discs to make stopping easier and safer.

This is perfect for driving in areas around pedestrians and cyclists and stop-and-go car traffic, as it makes driving less stressful and greatly reduces the odds of an accident occurring.

The Mazda3 has been popular for years, and the recent changes only add some of the most beloved features from other Mazda vehicles. As a result, no matter how much you loved the Mazda3, the new model is sure to blow you away.
