THE NEW MAZDA LOGO WAS LONG OVERDUE

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

The new Mazda logo redesign aims to modernize the brand, shedding its dated 1990s emblem for a flatter, more angular version. This change aligns Mazda with recent trends in other car manufacturers over the past five years. This contemporary update is timely and sensible as part of Mazda's effort to move upmarket.
