DESIGN

Retaining the strong character lines of Mazda’s Kodo – Soul of Motion design language, the refreshed Mazda3 Speed features a new grille and bezel design which are complemented by cat-like LED headlights and distinctive fog lights. The flowing yet muscular silhouette exudes a sportier look with red-painted brake calipers peeking out between the spokes of 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels. This play of red on black is echoed in the body kit, with the side skirt, front lip and rear skirt painted in brilliant black, but with the front and rear kits sporting dramatic red accents.

When you open the doors, a brushed aluminum scuff plate embossed with the Mazda3 logo adds another layer of distinction. The interior trim level is satisfyingly upscale, with black leather upholstery for the seats, door trim, steering wheel, and shift knob. Storage compartments are well-positioned to keep knick-knacks and other personal items neatly organized inside the cabin.

HARDWARE

The secret behind Mazda’s recent automotive successes is its vaunted Skyactiv technology, integrating advances in engine, transmission, body and chassis, as well as vehicle dynamics, to deliver improvements in fuel efficiency, car control, safety and overall driving pleasure.

The Mazda3 Speed is powered by a 2.0-liter DOHC engine mated to a six-speed automatic transmission that produces maximum output of 153 ps at 6,000 rpm and up to 200 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. The suspension system consists of front McPherson struts and rear multi-link beams, while brakes are ventilated discs for the front and solid discs for the rear.
