Design: inheriting the Mazda 3's established identity while making it more expressive
The design concept for the new Mazda 3 was "remaining faithful to an inherited identity while evolving the design to make it more expressive."

As a result, we achieved a powerful design that enhances recognition of Mazda's unique value.
