Cukur our MY version is better than this

I've gotten the catalogue from a Mazda dealer today haven't test driven the new GVC yet. Can anyone confirm that the car has lane keep assist where the steering steers automatically to keep the car in the lane?

I know there was LDW before where it only warns but having the steering assist seems to be something new.

Edit: apologies for the sideways photo

The brochure didn't say it would steer, it mentioned nudges and audio alert.

Correct me if i'm wrong.

Is this 'Lane Departure Warning' and 'Lane Keeping Assist' really important?  If you don't intend to fall asleep at the wheel why do you need them?

Personally I think it's just passive system helping out

A good and alert driver would probably never trigger the warning.

I personally think it is very useful. I've had a loan car from my friend who has the Ford Ranger Wildtrak which comes with Active Cruise Control and Lane Assist, I've tested the functions quite deliberately going off the lane and the steering steers back into the lane. It's really a beautiful system to use on highways. Roads on modern countries raised
reflective lane markers which lane assist isn't needed, however in Malaysia don't spend money on these life saving things.

Both are very important especially on long drives. With tiredness and momentarily lapse in concentration the car can help steer back into lane can help prevent accidents, it happens even to the best of us. No one intends to fall asleep behind the wheel, but if it does happen this will help.

Yah.. Though, been reading that most complain that mileage limit needs to be increased.. Say free service to 100km and five years or unlimited mileage.. Something like that..  we are humans after all.. Want moooarr!

Edit: Seven years or unlimited mileage warranty.. 

Sounds like haven't had to drive consistently with such features.. Let me ask.. Do you require airbags or even an airbag? Cuz a good and alert driver would never trigger their deployment. 

ACC, LDW & LKA are "active" systems and the idea is that they assist and not drive the car entirely.. Guess what, I've never been in an accident where my airbags deployed, however, I have been in slight bumper to bumper action and had to repair/repaint. Active safety systems such as the above and or the likes of SCBS and SBS will assist in preventing those rare times where someone accidentally or purposely breaks hard in front of you. Alternatively, say you have to apply the brakes in an emergency and the car behind you gets stopped by these systems cuz the car reacts faster than the driver of the vehicle. Thereby saving both car drivers some headache.. That's why they are important.

All GVC Mazda3 will be delivering around 3rd-4th week of this month.

Book early to avoid any disappointment, as stocks are limited.

For those who want without GVC (cheaper by a 10k++), there's limited stocks of

GLS (Highspec) Alum & GL (Mid Spec) Grey / White left

Mazda 3 GVC doesn't come in Soul Red, period

As for limited stocks, it mean for this & early next month delivery, for those who wants the car fast for earlier Zoom zoom enjoyment

I agree ... My previous post was more on wishful thinking.. But hey, should they decide to do so? Fine with me.. IMO, the Skyactive engine is quite reliable and I'm rather more concerned with build quality. Then there's that noisy arm bush problem that seems to plague their vehicles.. I'm eyeing the CX-5 and that along with leather issues, seem to be the major problem. Hoping all these are resolved in the 2017 models.
Haha.. Very true.. Preventing accidents will reduce some traffic jams, cuz either a lane or two is blocked or as we know, people simply slowing down to take a long peek.. 
Probably an overused marketing speak... I'm immune to such now and take my own sweet time... I don't reckon cars are flying off the shelves at Mazda like at say Honda.

If you are thinking of upsizing the rim, just get a proper aftermarket 17 inch rims from konig, advanti, enkei, etc. Get original, not replica for your safety and product longevity.

18 inch tyre prices are quite a jump compared to 17 inch.

why you want to downsize?

Think so, as Malaysia regulations not allowed anymore.

It probably don't have due to regulation but you can add in a plug and play accessory to have the doors lock when you step on the brake or put the gear into D.
