Mazda is named after Ahura Mazda, the Iranian-Zoroastrian God of intelligence, wisdom and harmony. Since the company was founded in 1920, it has built a reputation for creating efficient, sporty vehicles that are fun to drive. It's also famous for creating the rotary engine, which uses fewer moving parts than a traditional piston-based engine and features in several Mazda models, including the 1969 Luce R130 coupe.

The Mazda MX-5 Roadster has been listed as the best-selling two-seater car in the Guinness Book of World Records several times. It was also used to make history in 2022, breaking the record for the largest parade of Mazda cars with 707 MX-5s.

Brake discs spin with your car's wheels, while brake pads push on the discs to slow the vehicle. Due to the friction involved, these components wear down over time.

Typically, brake pads last between 25,000 to 65,000 miles, while discs usually last more than 50,000 miles. Learn more about how brakes work here.
