We’re fortunate to live in a world filled with dazzling hand-held technology. Once, a car was considered a marvel of innovation. Today, cars are loaded with spectacular entertainment and safety technology inside them.
The best part of all is that you don’t need to pay an arm and a leg to get a vehicle loaded with such impressive features. Let’s take a look at some of the state-of-the-art technology found in today’s Mazdas.
Safety First
When modern technology helps to keep everybody on the road safer, you’ll simply drive with more confidence and less stress. New Mazdas keep drivers aware of road hazards in a few ways.
The Skyactiv Vehicle Architecture runs through the vehicle’s core, responding to the driver’s every intention. Mazdas can sense how a driver meant to steer because of the incredible sense of oneness between the driver, the vehicle, and the road. To feel this connection for yourself, visit a local dealership to book a test drive.
Mazda’s proactive set of safety features is known as i-Activsense alerts drivers to road hazards they can avoid and lessens the impact of an accident when avoiding one is impossible. Here’s a list of some of the advanced safety technology you can find the i-Activsense:
- Blind Spot Monitoring System
- Adaptive Front-Lighting System
- Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
- Lane Departure Warning System
- Smart City Brake Support
- Forward Warning Obstruction
- Smart Brake Support
Together, these features help keep everybody on the road safer, including pedestrians, cyclists, other drivers, and, of course, you and your passengers. You’ll understand who is near your vehicle sooner, as this technology essentially functions as eyes on the back of your head.
The new Mazda3 comes with even more features, like rain-sensing windshield wipers and lights that automatically come on at dusk when twilight lighting can be tricky for everyone. No matter what season it is or what the weather is like, you’ll be safer in a Mazda.
Entertainment Galore
Advanced technology isn’t only for protection; it’s also for fun! Connecting your smartphone to the vehicle has never been easier, making listening to music or navigation simple and safe.
Use a voice-activated system or steering-mounted controls to control your phone. Getting directions is easy, and you’ll be in full compliance with the law. Chat with friends and relatives, get directions, or listen to your favorite music on a Bose sound system.
Mazda has produced some of the quietest cabins in their history, and when the only thing breaking this silence is strategically-placed Bose speakers, you’ll get a sonic experience you won’t soon forget. From the high-hats to the deep thud of the bass, every instrument will ring clear and true at low and high volumes.
Sometimes you need to stand back and consider how far technology has come in such a short time. If you tried to explain to someone ten years ago that a Mazda would have this level of innovation, you could excuse them for being skeptical. So if you’re looking for an affordable vehicle with technology to keep you safe, entertained, and connected on the go, pick a Mazda.
