The exterior is completely redesigned with slimmer headlights, a new honeycomb grille and a sleeker, more masculine appearence.
The interior too has been updated. The dashboard is more symmetrical but still driver focused. Mazda claims better ergonomics all around. The 7 inch colour touchscreen display and MZD CONNECT has been repositioned to be less of a distraction to the driver. Material selection has been improved with more soft touch, genuine leather, as well as wood and metal trim.

Adaptive LED headlights, Adaptive front lighting system, Smart City Brake System, Lane Departure Warning System, Blind Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Keeping Assist System, Driver Attention Alert.
