The Mazda 3 is a reliable car with a modern design and a front air intake reminiscent of the Mazda 6. It offers an enjoyable drive thanks to its precise steering and rigid rear suspension, which give it good stability on local roads. The powerful engines (1.5 turbo and 2.0-liter) provide good acceleration and reasonable fuel consumption, though it is not as economical as competing hybrids.
