One of the scariest feelings while driving is feeling your wheels slipping underneath you, grasping for any kind of traction and finding nothing solid to hold onto. It’s moments like these that make us wish we had an advanced all-wheel-drive system backing us up. That’s where the Mazda CX-3 with available predictive AWD comes in. This confident crossover has what it takes to go across the Yukon from Yellowknife to Alaska without losing its grip. Check out the video below!
i-ACTIV all-wheel-drive (AWD) is a system that features sensors that check road conditions 200 times every second, so it can sense and respond to changing road conditions to provide the safest, most capable ride possible. It monitors things like outside temperature, torque required to turn the front wheels, and the load on the engine to calculate the perfect amount of torque to send to each wheel to prevent slippage, but not so much as to waste fuel. i-ACTIV AWD predicts when slippage will occur, and corrects things before that happens, keeping you and yours safer in even the most unforgiving driving conditions.
As pro snowboarder Brad Martin makes his way across the Yukon in the outstanding SUV crossover, the Mazda CX-3, you’ll get an idea of exactly how far you can go when you’ve got a Mazda vehicle and i-ACTIV predictive AWD backing you up. Here at Budd Baer Mazda, we may be quite a ways away from the Yukon, but we’ve got our own unfavorable road conditions to deal with. If you’re shopping for a new vehicle, do yourself a favor and short list the CX-3. It’s got everything you need to go boldly into whatever comes next.
