For drivers who live in areas that get significant snowfall during the winter months, having a vehicle that can handle slippery, snowy road conditions is essential. From all-wheel drive to advanced stability control systems, Mazda vehicles provide the capability and confidence you need to navigate winter weather safely.
i-ACTIV All-Wheel Drive for Enhanced Traction
One of the key features that makes Mazda vehicles so adept at handling snowy conditions is the available i-ACTIV all-wheel drive system. This innovative technology monitors road conditions and automatically adjusts power distribution to the wheels that need it most. By sending torque to the wheels with the most grip, i-ACTIV AWD helps maintain traction and stability on slick surfaces. If you frequently drive in the snow in the Omaha area, the all-wheel drive system in a Mazda can provide extra peace of mind.
G-Vectoring Control for Stability and Responsiveness
G-Vectoring Control is another advanced feature in Mazda vehicles that enhances performance in snowy driving conditions. This system works by subtly adjusting engine torque in response to steering input, which helps to optimize vehicle weight transfer and improve stability. The result is more precise and responsive handling, even on slippery winter roads. G-Vectoring Control works seamlessly in the background to provide a more engaging and controlled driving experience.
High Ground Clearance to Navigate Deep Snow
Mazda's SUV and crossover lineup, including the Mazda CX-3, Mazda CX-30, Mazda CX-5 and Mazda CX-9, offer a higher ground clearance than typical passenger cars. This is beneficial for driving through deep snow, as it lessens the chances of getting stuck or "bottoming out". More ground clearance allows the vehicle to better clear snowy obstacles in the road. If you deal with unplowed streets or deep snow drifts in the winter, choosing a Mazda SUV or crossover may be a smart choice.
Cold Weather Comfort Features
In addition to mechanical features that improve drivability in the snow, Mazda vehicles also offer a range of comfort and convenience features to make winter driving more pleasant. Available heated front seats provide quick warmth on chilly mornings, while the heated steering wheel keeps your hands toasty. Dual-zone automatic climate control allows you and your passengers to set your ideal cabin temperature.
