2016 Mazda CX-3 |
The new compact crossover SUV is the fifth model in Mazda's line-up of new-generation vehicles that feature the full range of SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY and KODO-Soul of Motion design.
With global launches starting from Japan in the spring of 2015, the CX-3 is set to become a core model in the automaker's line-up.
The all-new compact crossover SUV offers all the essentials people look for in a car; a design of overwhelming quality and style, packaging developed solely with the customer's ease-of-use in mind, and the responsive driving feel that Mazda strives for in every model.
The CX-3 was developed to suit the customer's creative lifestyle in any scene, from inner-city driving to enjoying the great outdoors.
The powertrain line-up includes the SKYACTIV-D 1.5-liter clean diesel engine and SKYACTIV-G 2.0-liter gasoline engine, depending on the market.
Along with Mazda's new-generation AWD system, each engine option delivers powerful and linear driving performance and outstanding environmental performance.
To enhance the customer's driving pleasure, the model also offers a wide range of Mazda's latest technologies, including the Mazda Connect car connectivity system*1 and i-ACTIVSENSE advanced safety features.
Based on Mazda Proactive Safety, every effort is dedicated to minimising the risks that can lead to an accident and maximising the range of conditions in which the driver can drive safely and confidently. Active safety measures to help identify potential risks early on and reduce any chance of damage or injury include the adoption of Mazda's i-ACTIVSENSE advanced safety technologies. These enable the driver to enjoy every outing, whether driving on city streets, on the motorway, or on winding roads.
Passive safety features build on Mazda's high-strength SKYACTIV-Body. Dedicated effort went into providing optimum occupant safety, including the seatbelts and airbag system, and also toward helping protect pedestrians. The result is truly excellent safety performance, and the Mazda CX-3 is fully capable of earning high-level safety ratings in collision tests around the world.
