Head-turning style, sporty driving dynamics, and a cozy interior make the 2025 Mazda3 feel a class above other sedans. The Mazda3 is also outfitted with smart features to keep you comfortable, safe, and connected on every drive.

6 Smart Features of the 2025 Mazda3

1. G-Vectoring Control Plus

The Mazda3 is smooth and balanced in corners, thanks to the standard G-Vectoring Control Plus system. When the wheels turn, this clever feature adjusts the engine torque and braking power, improving weight distribution and overall ride quality. The standard powertrain includes a 2.5L four-cylinder that makes 191 horsepower, a six-speed automatic, and front-wheel drive. A 2.5L turbo-four engine with 250 horsepower is available, paired with all-wheel drive for a sportier drive.

2. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Integration

The standard 8.8-inch infotainment display comes standard with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, allowing you to stream content, get directions, and send messages. You’ll also get Bluetooth for audio streaming and hands-free calls, plus steering-wheel controls for extra convenience. The Turbo trims step up to a 10.25-inch center display with wireless smartphone integration, making it easier to sync your phone. Alexa Built-in, HD Radio, and SiriusXM satellite radio are all available if you want more entertainment options.

3. i-Activsense Safety Technologies

Standard safety equipment on the Mazda3 includes smart brake support, which applies automatic brakes when there’s a risk of a forward collision. Lane-keep assist, lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go are also standard. The Mazda3 is equipped with a rearview monitor, and a more advanced 360-degree camera is available to help you navigate tight parking spots easily.

4. Adaptive Front Lighting System

The available adaptive front lighting system enhances visibility at night and on winding roads. When cornering, it senses the steering wheel angle and swivels the headlight beam in that direction to light up more of the road instead of just pointing straight. This increases safety and makes it easier to spot obstacles in your path.

5. Online Navigation System

Available on the top-spec 2.5 Turbo Premium Plus, the online navigation system lets you set destinations and get directions right on the center display. When venturing off the road on your adventures, the system maps out the trails on the screen, so you can take on unfamiliar routes without worry.

6. Auto-Dimming Rearview Mirror

Driving at night is easier on the eyes, thanks to the available auto-dimming rearview mirror that comes with a stylish frameless design. The mirror automatically darkens when bright headlights shine from behind, reducing glare and improving visibility. There’s a standard day/night rearview mirror that does the same thing, but you have to flip the switch manually.
