The 2021 Mazda3 100th Anniversary Edition has leather seats and an eye-catching Garnet red and black colour scheme that stretches to the carpet and floor mats. This trim also boasts subtle luxury design elements, like an auto-dimming, frame-less rearview mirror. 

The 10-way power-adjustable driver's chair with memory feature and the leather-wrapped steering wheel add to the 100th Anniversary Edition's premium feel. However, all 2021 Mazda3 models have heated seats, rear row vents, and easily-accessible USB ports and electrical outlets.

The 100th Anniversary Edition has additional high-tech elements. It offers the Home Link Wireless Control System and a windshield-projected Active Driving Display (ADD).

2021 mazda3 okanagan bc best pricesThe 2021 Mazda3 has a full range of safety tools for Okanagan, BC car owners. This compact vehicle uses the proprietary i-Activesense suite of features to provide secure, accident-free driving.

The 2021 Mazda3 GS, for example, has blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, radar cruise control with stop and go functions, and smart braking for forward collision avoidance. These are standard on this and all higher-level trims. 

GS, GT, GT Turbo, and 100th Anniversary models have other useful safety components. Automatic high-beam control helps adjust headlamp intensity. The state-of-the-art driver attention alert (DAA) system and forward obstruction warning ensure that Mazda3 motorists remain awake and aware of any potential dangers. 

While these tech-related traits come standard, the GS and its sister trims also cover the basics. Front and side-curtain airbags are in all models, as are three-point belts for every passenger, child-seat anchors, and rear door safety locks. Furthermore, Mazda3s have a theft-response system that includes an engine immobilizer. 


Some of the high-tech safety tools, including traffic jam assistance, road sign recognition, and 360-degree surround view, are part of the optional premium package. 

If you would like to see the i-Activesense suite of auto protection innovations for yourself, contact our Okanagan, BC dealership today to inquire about the 2021 Mazda3.

2021 mazda3 for sale in okanagan bcThe 2021 Mazda3 uses a minimalist design approach to create a spacious and welcoming interior. Other vehicles in the compact class have a difficult time matching the stylish, tech-rich cabin of this car. 

The 2021 Mazda3 100th Anniversary Edition is a prime example of these superior interiors. This trim boasts a Garnet red colour scheme with matching carpet, mats, and leather upholstery. The push-button start, 8.8-inch Mazda Connect user interface, seven-inch vehicle information display, and steering-wheel-mounted controls put everything the driver needs within easy reach. 

The inside of the 2021 Mazda3 100 owes its premium feel to elements such as a Bose sound system, a frame-less rearview mirror, heated seats, and leather accents. The acoustics keep the cabin quiet and peaceful regardless of the conditions on the road outside. 

Meanwhile, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility and Bluetooth connectivity make it possible to enhance the already attractive infotainment menu in the 2021 Mazda3 100th Anniversary Edition. 


Passengers will appreciate the design and tech. However, the 2.5L turbocharged engine, six-speed automatic transmission with manual mode and paddle shifter, and standard iActiv 4x4 will please drivers who want something more than the regular, non-noteworthy compact car experience. 

If you would like to see the interior of the 2021 Mazda3 100th Anniversary Edition for yourself, contact our Kelowna, BC dealership today to inquire about availability, check financing options, or schedule a test drive.

2021 mazda3 at kelowna bc dealershipThe 2021 Mazda3 GT offers a 2.5L four-cylinder Skyactiv engine, which provides 186 hp and 186 lb.-ft of torque. When paired with the optional AWD, the fuel economy is 7.0 L/100 km on the highway and 9.3 L/100 km in the city.

One variation of the trim, available at our Kelowna, BC dealership, includes an exciting upgrade. This particular 2021 Mazda3 GT comes with a turbocharged 2.5L I-4. After adding the extra muscle, the car gets 250 hp and 320 lb.-ft of torque. 

Even using this enhancement and a 4x4 drivetrain, the 2021 Mazda3 GT with Turbo is still frugal when it comes to fuel consumption, getting 7.5 L/100 km on the open road. 

A six-speed automatic transmission is standard on the GT Turbo, but drivers also get a manual mode and paddle shifters. Heated front seats, a Bose sound system, leather-trimmed upholstery, and a navigation screen round out this attractive package. 

Furthermore, the Mazda3 GT with Turbo successfully merges sporty performance and good looks. It has 18-inch alloy wheels, a moon roof featuring a one-touch-open system, and front and rear signature lighting.

2021 mazda3 for sale okanagan bcThe 2021 Mazda3 GS is a compact vehicle that comfortably seats five. Like other small cars, this one has practical traits. Its fuel economy is 6.4 L/100 km on the highway, and its Skyactiv-G 2.0L four-cylinder engine produces a respectable 155 hp. It also has a standard six-speed manual transmission. 

Though it is quite pragmatic in many ways, the 2021 Mazda3 offers exciting enhancements. For example, shoppers can opt for a 2.5L I-4 engine that increases the horsepower to 186. Though front-wheel drive is standard, 4x4 is available, as is a six-speed automatic shifter. 

These extras can create a performance-oriented car that can handle adverse weather conditions. However, they do not cancel out the practicality. Even with the 2.5L engine and AWD, the 2021 Mazda3 GS gets 7.0 L/100 km on the highway. 

There are plenty of safety features, as well. The Mazda3 protects passengers with blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-path alert, and Smart City Brake Support, which stops the vehicle automatically to avoid collisions. Traditional elements like front and side airbags, three-point belts, and child-seat anchors are standard on all trims.
