Redesigned Mazda3 Wins AJAC Canadian Car of the Year

The all-new and completely redesigned Mazda3 has taken home its most prestigious award yet, the 2020 Canadian Car of the Year award handed out by the Automotive Journalists Association of Canada.


"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 2020 Mazda3 follows the changes made to the 3 last year. The popular compact was completely redesigned and features exclusive and advanced features such as available all-wheel drive, a rare feature in this segment.


"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."
