The newest [Mazda](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cx50) [car commercials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/you-are-how-you-car) are pretty neat, taking the viewer on a journey through a scrapbook where the Mazda car is the key component. I actually really enjoyed this commercial (for once...). It was inventive and demonstrated a unique approach to car ownership--rather than a car looking sleek and going really fast through a cityscape.

The commercial sees the car go through birthdays, beach days with friends, city living and [various travels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travel-changed-me), mimicking the progression of an actual life which makes it a commercial to which many consumers can relate.
