I read in a recent interview with Mazda’s CEO, Masahiro Moro, that the company plans to launch its first electric-vehicle-only model in 2027. This is part of their efforts to speed up their electrification and catch up with their global rivals. While they did start selling an electric model of the MX-30 sport utility vehicle…
Mazda is ready to make some changes to its lineup. The Japanese automaker announced that the CX-9 will no longer be available after the 2023 model year. The Mazda CX-9 has been around since 2007 and served as a three-row option, but alas, its replacement is the recently released 2024 Mazda CX-90. Mazda is discontinuing…
If you’re in the market for a compact car that offers a premium driving experience, the 2023 Mazda 3 is definitely worth considering. Although it’s priced similarly to other compacts, the 3 aims to compete with more luxurious cars and, in many ways, it succeeds. Available as either a sedan or a hatchback, both versions…
The Mazda3 has a rich history, dating back four decades to its predecessors in the form of a station wagon or a coupe, such as the GLC, 323, and Protegé. Nowadays, the 2019 Mazda3 comes in the form of a bold hatchback or a sleek sedan. But despite all the changes and advancements, Mazda’s driving…

There are very few things that stir emotions in people like cars do, and even fewer things that car people can unanimously agree on. The Mazda MX-5 Miata is one of those things, and its long track record of top-down, corner-hugging fun is just part of the equation. The New England Motor Press Association (NEMPA)…
The current-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata has been around for quite some time now. The ND era was introduced in 2014 for the 2015 model year, and we are now getting a glimpse of what could be the NE model. Despite the camouflaged face, which appears to be smiling, it’s important to focus on what’s happening…
Regarding entry-level compact sedans or hatchbacks, the Mazda 3 is a name that often gets overshadowed by competitors like the Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla. The Japanese automaker recently introduced new technology, driver assist features, and premium interior upgrades. The Mazda 3’s latest features can increase the popularity of the hatchback/sedan. Still, the real question…
The new CX-50 by Mazda is making waves in the compact SUV segment, but how does it compare to the CX-5, which is already a popular choice? Some see it as a sibling rivalry within the Mazda family, but the company has clarified that both models hold a firm position in their auxiliary Two SUVs…
