February 03 2020,
The Mazda3 has been crowned Canadian Car of the Year once more by the Automotive Journalists Association of Canada. The news was announced at the Canadian International Auto Show held in Toronto in February.
"The Mazda3 is not new to the title of Canadian Car of the Year and is among the most enduring nameplates in these awards," said Stephanie Wallcraft, AJAC President. "With the collective weight of AJAC members and their rigorous evaluations behind it, Canadians can be assured that the 2020 Mazda3 is among the very best vehicles available in our market today."
The AJAC Canadian Car of the Year is one of the most prestigious awards a new vehicle can win, and certainly the most prestigious in Canada. Starting at $18,000 the new 2020 Mazda3 features a wide range of advantages including being one of the few compact cars to offer all-wheel drive.
"The all-new Mazda3 is an incredible engineering feat made possible by our passionate engineers and designers, and the addition of all-wheel drive to this car brings it even more in line with the needs and wants of Canadian consumers," said David Klan, President & CEO, Mazda Canada. "We are honoured and humbled to accept this award for the Mazda3, which is such an important part of our portfolio and is the first product to launch our new-generation of vehicles that are elevating the Mazda brand to a premium position."
