STYLE AND SAFETY UPDATES FOR MAZDA’S SMALL VEHICLES

Updates to the record-breaking Mazda CX-3 and much-loved Mazda2 will bring safer small car driving to 2025.

Mazda’s strategy for continuous improvement will see base grades boosted with advanced i-Activsense safety technologies, while styling enhancements will fine-tune appeal across both models.

The ever-popular Mazda CX-3 continues to best its own sales records and lead the light SUV pack. For 2025, its winning formula is refined, shifting its entry point to the Pure grade. Picking up 18-inch gun metal machined alloy wheels, Pure adds Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) and Smart Brake Support (SBS) to boost its existing autonomous emergency braking technology suite.

The Mazda CX-3 Evolve will also introduce those technologies, plus fog lamps and advanced keyless entry. A sportier look is achieved with 18-inch black machined alloy wheels and black leatherette seat trim, which is newly added to the console and doors.

At the top end, the GT SP replaces the Touring SP model grade, adding 18-inch black alloys and the 7-speaker Bose® premium audio system. Akari also introduces new 18-inch bright finish alloys.

The Mazda2 range will be consolidated for 2025, with Evolve replacing Pure as the entry point and welcoming MRCC, SBS and new 16-inch black metallic alloys.

Mazda Australia Managing Director, Vinesh Bhindi, said the update adds even more value to Mazda’s important small-vehicle stable.

“These updates boost the safety and style credentials that we know continue to draw customers to both Mazda CX-3 and Mazda2, which remain highly important models for our business.”
