The Skyactiv-Vehicle Architecture responds to the driver’s every intention, while the available i-Activ AWD system has a suite of proactive features to help drivers read the road effortlessly.

Advanced Safety

Mazda takes everybody’s safety seriously, and new innovations make safe driving simple. The i-Activ AWD system uses 27 sensors to monitor driving conditions 200 times a second. 

The Mazda3 can tell if a back wheel needs more torque due to road slippage, and it will supply the torque just when needed. It can also tell if it’s raining, and the vehicle’s windshield wipers turn on automatically.

The suite of i-Activesense safety features alert drivers to hazards so they can avoid them or lessen the impact when a collision is unavoidable. It doesn’t matter what Mazda3 trim you get. They all come with important features, like:

- Advanced Blind Spot Monitoring

- Rear Cross Traffic Alert

- Automatic on/off headlights

- Rain-sensing windshield wipers

Stay in touch via text, email, or the phone, and easily listen to all your music. The 7-inch colour touchscreen is very responsive, and you can control it through buttons located conveniently on the steering wheel. When you play your favourite songs in the Mazda3, the strategically-located Bose speakers will make them sound better than ever.
