Car Reviews 2026 Mazda3

Since its introduction in 2004, the Mazda 3 had been a really big hit for young buyers like the Scion tC, but the Mazda 3 has a more European feel to it, as well as the looks. Six years later, the 3 had been redesigned with an appealing exterior for both the sedan and the hatchback (I am more of the hatchback). However, the front end which has face-lifted air dam that looked kind of like a…smiling face? I thought I had been getting mixed opinions about that front area, so I thought that I would take a look at the car for myself. The Mazda 3’s interior had been getting some minor changes too. As far as the MazdaSpeed 3? That is a whole other ball game. The Mazda 3, whether it is the first generation, or the current, is still and always will be the #1 hit for the young buyers who are comparing the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. The 2010 Mazda 3 comes with two engines for both the sedan and the hatchback. The 2.0-liter inline-4 produces 148 horsepower at 6500 rpm, and 132 lb-ft. of torque at 4500 rpm, while the new engine, the 2.5-liter inline-4, which was bumped up this year came with 167 horsepower at 6000 rpm, and 168 lb-ft. of torque at 4000 rpm.

Straight-line acceleration is pretty average for a compact car, but seeming that one of the engines has a 2.5-liter, the more powerful “s” trim goes from 0-60 mph in just 7.5 seconds. I really loved the 2.5-liter s trim, because it had pretty much everything I was looking for, well, everything except for a missing USB port for my iPhone or iPod, and the performance of this trim suits up to my expectations. I would discuss all of the trims for both the Mazda 3 2.0 and the 2.5, but I would not want to bore anyone, so I will keep this short. The “i” level of the Mazda 3 comes with cloth seats, basic power windows, door locks, air conditioning with an in-cabin filter (standard on i Touring through s Sport), manually-adjusted seats with height adjustment, and a rear-window defroster. The “i” level also comes standard with the 2.0-liter engine, which I have mentioned earlier. The i Touring package all the way to the s Grand Touring comes with standard Bluetooth and dual automatic climate controls with an integrated dust and pollen filter. The Grand Touring however, is the only model that comes with Category:Home › Home • Will higher gasoline prices mean lower sales for new cars? — part 2 • Will higher gasoline prices mean lower sales for new cars? — part 1 • Should the crew of the Sea Shepherd board whaling ships? • Which makes a better pet: A dog or a cat? — part 13 • Grandparents: Can blogging chronicle your genealogy? • Which makes a better pet: A dog or a cat? — part 12 • Are teachers unions the cause of public school problems today? • Which makes a better pet: A dog or a cat? — part 11
