Mazda launches the new 2017 Model Year Mazda3 in japan ready for world launch later in the year.

Mazda Motor Corporation has released an updated Mazda3, which goes on sale in Japan today.

Mazda’s new-generation lineup, which is designed to offer Jinba Ittai driving performance and an ideal driving position, got its start with the launch of Mazda CX-5 in 2012.

These products have been developed based on a human-centered development philosophy supported with research into human traits and sensations in order to ensure a pleasing driving feel.

The new Mazda3 features G-Vectoring Control (GVC), the first in a series of new SKYACTIV-VEHICLE DYNAMICS technologies that provide integrated control of the engine, transmission, chassis and body to enhance the car’s Jinba Ittai feel, and a range of other design and equipment updates.

“Mazda is striving to become an irreplaceable presence in the lives of our customers, to create a special bond with them and to be a ‘one-and-only’ brand they will choose again and again,” said Masamichi Kogai, Mazda’s President and CEO.

“In order to do that, we will continue updating our models with next-generation technologies based on our human-centered development philosophy, without concern for the timing of redesigns.”

The 2017 Mazda3 goes on sale in the U.S. later this year.
