Fuel Economy. Performance. Together.


Mazda's philosophy is that if it's not worth driving, it's not worth building.

So in the quest for better environmental performance, the goal was to reduce fuel consumption and emissions without compromising driving performance. To get there, Mazda started with a clean sheet of paper and engineered every major component of the automobile to work together in efficient harmony.
The result is something revolutionary.


It takes the combustion engine to a whole new level.

When equipped with the SKYACTIV®-G gasoline engine and SKYACTIV®-Drive automatic transmission, the 2012 Mazda3 i 4-Door delivers up to an EPA-rated 40 mpg highway?. (Actual results may vary.)

The SKYACTIV®-Drive Transmission is not only extremely important in improving fuel economy, it also plays a major role in driving performance. Combining the best features of all transmissions, as well as a control module "brain" made that possible.

The SKYACTIV®-Body and SKYACTIV®-ChassisExcess weight isn't just a problem for fitness instructors; too many pounds can impede fuel economy and driving performance. By exercising our engineering muscles, we were able to slim down our SKYACTIV® Body and Chassis, but still improve driving attributes and efficiency.

SKYACTIV®-MT six-speed manual transmission With its compact size and enhanced gear structure, is smaller and lighter. It was also engineered to deliver the light and crisp shift feel of the Mazda MX-5 Miata.

2012 Mazda3 with SKYACTIV® TECHNOLOGY can travel more than 500 highway miles on a single fill-up*, meaning the exhilarating performance goes on and on.

*Driving range based on 14.5 gallon fuel capacity and 39 highway mpg for Mazda3 i 5-door models with automatic transmission.
