All new Mazda3 makes a grand foray in Oman

Built on the excellent driving dynamics that helped make its predecessor, Mazda's best selling vehicle worldwide, Mazda3's all new 2010 model has got the fresh new appeal that is bound to sweep you of your feet and right into it.

Available in four door sedan and five door hatchback models, the Mazda3 has already won the praises of millions at the 2008 Los Angeles Auto Show and Bologna Motor Show in Italy where it first made its international debut.

"Aimed at the young at heart who love to drive and are technologically savvy, the new Mazda3 is a completely original car from bumper to bumper and is still the most engaging car in its class. Both versions feature top class environmental and safety performance, and offer evolved sporty driving performance, dynamic styling elements and a high-quality interior,"

says S Kasthurirengan, CEO, TAC.

Apart from its rich expression and emotional styling, another unique feature about the Mazda3, is that its performance has been enhanced as well.

The 16 valve, 1.6 ltr DOHC SVT four cylinder engine comes with 4 speed Activematic transmission. Moreover, the all new Mazda3 is also available in a new diverse line up of 9 highly expressive colours such as Celestial Blue Mica, Olympic Gold Metallic, Aluminium Metallic and Graphite Mica, etc.

Annurag Chawla, Head of Marketing & Communications, TAC, points out:

"The Mazda3 is the first Mazda model to exceed its annual production volume for four consecutive years since it commenced production. And this exhilaration of 'Zoom-Zoom' handling and performance is now available in yet another striking sedan and sporty hatchback body style. Whatever your expectation, the new generation Mazda3 will truly exceed it!"

Though the Mazda3's have always been quite comfortable its materials have been improved for that luxurious feel and also available in beige colour.

Moreover, the Mazda3 is larger in every dimension, and its seats have been redesigned with longer cushions and taller backrests that are more supportive.

The new Mazda3 also aims for a cut above feel, with soft touch surfaces and the best in-built equipments ever. Available new features include a push button start and keyless entry system, dual zone climate control, bi xenon head lamps, 16 inch alloys, auto headlamps, rain sensing wipers and a new CD and MP3 player which will excite the musically inclined youth of today.

Amongst the several new features are also cruise control and Multi Information Display (MID). "Built in strict accordance with Mazda's long term vision of "Sustainable Zoom-Zoom", harmony between driving pleasure on the one hand and environmental friendliness and safety on the other, the all-new Mazda3 fully embodies Mazda's firm resolve to build cars that 'look inviting to drive, are fun to drive, and make you want to drive them again'," says Paul Valiyaveetil, Business Manager, Passenger Cars and LCVs, TAC.
