Mazda's Essential Car Care program
The Educator appreciation program is an offshoot of the
Mazda Essential Car Care Program
introduced in 2020 for healthcare workers. The company invested enough money in the program to make it available nationwide and help keep healthcare workers’ vehicles in top shape while they continued the fight against COVID-19.
Mazda is currently rising in popularity
Mazda's popularity was rising before the pandemic, and it seems to have pulled ahead during the last year. Whether it has to do with the reliability and affordability of the Mazda brand, the changes to their advertising techniques, or their commitment to keeping essential workers on the road is unclear.
A combination of the price, safety and the new awards Mazda is racking up may be contributing to its popularity. However, it is still not within the top ten of auto manufacturers. Mazda is making a move that will help ensure its continued increase in rankings and safety while complying with future regulations.
Mazda is going to be releasing its first fully
electric car
, the 2022 MX-30. The company also has plans to add electric components to every vehicle by 2030. In a report by Autotrader
, the company expects 25% of its models will be electric while the other 75% will have a hybrid by the end of 2030.Mazda's generous move to assist healthcare workers and teachers in this time of uncertainty is inspiring. Educators do a lot to help our young people develop along the path to adulthood and even beyond.
