I bought a 2014 Mazda 3s Grand touring I absolutely love it. I feel like the engineers at Mazda make cars to drive and not only that enjoyable to drive. The 184 horsepower engine has enough pep to get you moving, but also 37 miles per gallon helps you on the highway. The car is also very lightweight and maneuverable and is just a pleasure to drive....

Mazda MAZDA3 Overview
The Mazda3 entered its second generation in mid-2008, with 2010 model year cars getting an extensive facelift as well as a new 2.5-liter, 165-hp, 167 lb-ft inline four-cylinder engine for all s trims. The new smiling grille has gotten a mixed reception, but improved braking feel courtesy of a new vacuum booster should make everyone happy. A longer options list now includes memory for driver’s seat and mirror settings, dual-zone climate control, and steering-linked headlamps, all of which are somewhat hard to find at the Mazda3’s price point.
The Mazda3 lineup for 2010 begins with the SV (“special value”) sedan and moves up through Sport, Touring, and Grand Touring trims, with the Touring available only as a sedan with the smaller engine, the Sport available in either body style with either engine, and the Grand Touring offered in both body styles, but only with the larger engine. The 2.0-liter engine in all i trims continues from the past generation, producing 144 hp and 132 lb-ft of torque. All Mazda3s run on regular gasoline, and the smaller engine gets estimated mileage of 25/33 mpg with the manual and 24/33 with the automatic. The new larger engine gets rated at 21/29 with the manual and 22/29 with the automatic.
Owners seem very pleased with 2010 Mazda3s, particularly its handling and ride. Some small gripes have been heard regarding the manual transmission’s long throws, the power output of the smaller engine, and the car’s ergonomics for tall drivers, but overall, the Mazda3 continues to sell well and make owners happy.
We haven’t heard any forecasts regarding future versions of the Mazda3, but no doubt the reception of 2010’s changes will have a large impact on future versions.
The “wicked-fun, wallet-smart” Mazda3 has carried the torch for Mazda’s “zoom zoom” mantra for the past few years, not to mention being one of the company’s best sellers ever. It debuted for the 2004 model year as a replacement for the Protegé, and has throughout its production been available as a sedan or hatchback. Targeted at shoppers looking for an inexpensive but fun-to-drive compact, the Mazda3 competes with the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla, but costs less than both. It gets kudos for its sharp handling, performance, and amenities, with some considering it a value-priced competitor to European sport sedans and hatches for its driving dynamics and interior. The car has earned good, not great, fuel efficiency and safety scores, but that hasn’t hurt it, as the Mazda3 has won a bunch of awards worldwide since its introduction, including a number of best of the year or best in class awards in its debut year as well as a Car & Driver 10Best Award for 2010.
Originally offered in only two trims, the Mazda3 lineup has expanded over the years, with the high-performance MazdaSpeed3 hatchback arriving as a separate model in mid-2006 for the 2007 model year. As it has from the beginning, a 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder powers i trims, while s cars feature a 2.3-liter four (all hatchbacks get the larger engine). Updates over the years have generally focused on exterior styling tweaks and minor efficiency improvements, although 2007 saw more change than usual, with the chassis getting reinforced for added stiffness, the suspension tweaked to improve steering, and the addition of an Auxiliary jack to the factory stereo. The addition of standard ABS and side curtain airbags, which had been optional in higher-end trims, improved safety scores in 2008.
While the Mazda3 has now entered its second generation, all years and versions share quite a bit under the skin, including tight, sporty handling and a more luxurious interior than the car’s original price and segment would suggest. As noted above, the Mazda3 arrived in 2004, and it won a number of awards around the world that year, with many praising its handling, interior, and value as exceptional. In the eyes of most critics and the general public, each year since has seen improvements.
The 2.0-liter four that powers 2010 i trims has lasted the life of this model, though it got variable valve timing to improve its output in 2006. That year the larger engine received the PZEV certification the smaller engine already had for sale in California. The 2007 model year saw some cosmetic changes to the exterior as well as chassis and suspension improvements for better steering and a new vacuum booster for better brake feel. Traction and stability control were offered as optional upgrades in 2007 as well. ABS and side-curtain airbags became standard across the lineup in 2008 and improved the car’s safety ratings.
The Mazda3 has consistently struck automotive journalists and car buyers as a good value and has appeared on many lists over the years as one of the best options in the compact family sedan and hatchback classes. Anyone eager to take full advantage of the car’s exceptional handling will be more pleased with the larger engine, while anyone eager to minimize gas expenses will prefer the smaller. A full suite of airbags and traction/stability control are worthwhile additions on earlier cars, and very tall drivers should definitely test-drive first to make sure they’re comfortable, but most owners are very happy with their Mazda3, regardless of year.

Review
by JoshGood little car, personally didnt like the interior as much as other hatchbacks, it felt more enclosed. The instrument cluster had a different setup, I wasnt a fan of the tiny tachometer. But it does have good acceleration, decent ride for its size, and great handling. If you can stay reserved and not have too much fun, its good on gas as well. -
Review
by GeneA really nice ride for a small car. Plus the interior is classy w/o being trashy. I like the no-touch screen feature and the fact that the screen is mounted high but not that idiotic tombstone look EVERYONES using for now (even the Mazda 6- eyeroll) in order to set up the next look that will be much more subtle and maybe even behind or on the steer...
