Over the years, there have been lots of different Mazda used cars, from hatchbacks and saloons to SUVs and even Le Mans race cars, but it didn’t do this completely alone, having entered into strategic partnerships with Toyota, Nissan, Isuzu, Suzuki and Ford. 

Standout Mazda features

Standard used Mazda features often include a touchscreen infotainment system and climate control, while higher-spec models may also include features such as a heads-up display, heated seats and a panoramic sunroof.  

Exclusive to these cars are features such as the Mazda Connect infotainment system, G-Vectoring Control – which uses the car’s brakes to subtly adjust the car's torque during cornering, improving handling – and i-Activsense, which includes a host of safety features.  

Some of these include airbags, an anti-lock braking system, electronic stability control, traction control and driver attention alert systems.
