The MRCC with Stop & Go function
system is designed to maintain
headway control

ahead according to your vehicle's
speed using a front radar sensor to
detect the distance to the vehicle
ahead and a preset vehicle speed
without you having to use the
accelerator or brake pedals.

the vehicle ahead detected by the
Mazda Radar Cruise Control
(MRCC) system.
Additionally, if your vehicle starts
closing in on the vehicle ahead such as
if the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly, a
warning sound and a warning
indication in the display are activated
simultaneously to alert you to maintain
a sufficient distance between the
vehicles.
If the vehicle ahead stops while you are
following behind it, your vehicle will
stop and be held stopped
automatically (stop hold control), and
headway control will resume when you
resume driving the vehicle such as by
