Mazda Motor Corporation has introduced a bold new body colour, Navy Blue Mica, set to make its debut on the all-new CX-5 before being rolled out across the brand’s wider range.

The company hopes this refined shade will become the definitive navy tone for years to come.

Blue has long been part of Mazda’s identity. In the 1970s, “Mazda Blue” was adopted as the corporate symbol colour, and a blue hue was chosen to launch the first generation of the CX-5. Over the decades, Mazda has offered more than 150 colours featuring the word “blue,” each resonating with customers worldwide for its versatility and connection to everyday life.

The newly developed Navy Blue Mica builds on the legacy of “Deep Crystal Blue Mica,” delivering a modern interpretation of navy with enhanced visual depth. Designed to combine vivid highlights with rich, elegant shadows, the colour reflects Mazda’s commitment to precision and clarity. Engineers achieved this effect by carefully blending different mica particles and arranging them horizontally, ensuring high contrast and texture definition in all weather conditions.

Guided by the philosophy that colour is integral to a vehicle’s form, Mazda continues to pursue designs that embody dynamic energy and elevate the “joy of driving.” With Navy Blue Mica, the brand aims to spark excitement in every journey and bring a sense of vitality to daily life.
