All-New 2019 Mazda3 Wins First Award: GAAMA ‘Biggest Bang For Your Buck’

Following its recent global reveal at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the all-new 2019 Mazda3 has picked up its first award. Members of the influential Greater Atlanta Automotive Media Association (GAAMA) voted the 2019 Mazda3 as their “Biggest Bang for Your Buck” vehicle at the 2019 Atlanta International Auto Show. “Mazda has strategically placed the Mazda3 in a class above,” said Daryl Killian, president of the Greater Atlanta Automotive Media Association. “With all-wheel drive, sedan and hatchback options, Mazda has removed any justifiable reason for consumers to look elsewhere and with a premium all-wheel drive model coming in under $30,000, why would they?” Having sold more than 6 million units since its 2003 debut, the all-new Mazda3 is a global strategic model that has driven Mazda’s growth from both a brand and business perspective. The 2019 Mazda3 sets a new milestone as the first production model to lead Mazda into a bold new era. Blending beautiful second generation Kodo design language and exhilarating driving dynamics, Mazda3 was developed to inspire and create an emotional bond with its customers in two very distinct ways. Despite sharing the Mazda3 moniker, the hatchback and sedan models have distinct personalities—the design of the hatchback is emotive, the sedan elegant. The all-new Mazda3 offers what few do in this segment—all-wheel drive. Combined with unique G-Vectoring Control Plus, the Mazda3 with i-Activ AWD performs exactly as the driver intends. Based on its philosophy of designing the car around the human being, Mazda has dramatically enhanced the car’s fundamental driving attributes such that accelerating, turning and braking feel completely natural to the driver. Other available features include windshield-projected, full-color Active Driving Display head-up unit, leather seats, power moonroof, signature front and rear LED lighting and Adaptive Front-lighting System. It also adds a BOSE® 12-speaker premium audio system as part of the preferred package, and paddle shifters when equipped with Skyactiv-Drive six-speed automatic transmission. “The automotive press has had glowing things to say about the sleek and elegant Mazda3 sedan and bold and powerful Mazda3 hatchback,” said Masahiro Moro, chairman and CEO of Mazda North American Operations and senior managing executive officer, Mazda Motor Corporation. “We’re honored to receive GAAMA’s ‘Biggest Bang for your Buck’ award as further affirmation that we are reimagining and designing cars people are excited to drive.” The 2019 Mazda3 is currently on sale starting at an MSRP of $21,000.

Mazda's Pre-Collision Safety Technology helps reduce the severity of a collision when one becomes unavoidable.

Pre-Collision Safety Technology SCBS (Smart City Brake Support) These systems automatically apply the brakes to reduce the severity of a collision. Rear-end collisions are the most common type of accident, and approximately 60% of these occur at relatively low speeds of 30km/h or less. more Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) helps the driver avoid frontal collisions while driving at the slow speeds common in urban areas or congested traffic. When driving at low speeds (approximately 4 - 30 km/h) a laser sensor mounted on the windsheild senses the car in front. If the system detects a risk of collision, it prepares the brake system to be ready to deliver maximum stopping power when the driver brakes. If the driver does not take evasive action such as braking or steering, the system simultaneously applies the brakes and reduces engine output, with the aim of avoiding the collision or reducing the severity of impact. Acceleration Control for AT This system stops the car from taking off suddenly when the driver mistakenly steps on the accelerator instead of the brake. This system curbs sudden acceleration when the driver steps on the accelerator by mistake, by unintentional pedal operation. The system comes into effect if the driver presses the accelerator pedal more than a prescribed amount when the vehicle is stopped and the laser sensor detects an obstacle in front. It checks sudden acceleration by curbing engine output while alerting the driver with an alarm and a warning light displayed on the meter display. Pre-Crash Safety Technologies are designed to reduce damage and/or injuries resulting from accidents. However each system has its limitations, and no safety system or combination of such systems can prevent all accidents. These systems are not a replacement for safe and attentive driving. Please drive carefully at all times and do not rely on technology to prevent an accident. Not all of these systems are available on all models or in all markets, so please contact your local Mazda dealer for details on availability. Please refer to your owners' manual for additional important system details, limitations and warnings.
