Mazda North American Operations (MNAO) has debuted the next phase of its brand campaign, 'Feel Alive'. Aiming to evoke feelings of wonder and inspiration, the new spot titled, 'Dream Bigger,' will officially launch the all-new 2019 Mazda3, the brand’s next generation product. The spot aired during the NCAA Championship game.

'Dream Bigger' was conceived by Mazda North American Operations and Garage Team Mazda. The team took a refined and humanistic approach to the campaign, differentiating it from traditional auto commercials. Adding to the inspirational tone, musical artist Haley Reinhardt artfully covered ‘Dreams’ by The Cranberries, bringing the song to life in a new and modern way.

'Dream Bigger' builds on the 'Feel Alive' foundation by demonstrating how Mazda helps customers achieve their goals by being a source of inspiration and enrichment, and uplifting them to feel alive. The initial launch film features the all-new Mazda3, a vehicle that aims to attract younger, more premium-minded buyers looking for a means to express their professional and personal aspirations.
