A genuine driver's car, offering new levels of performance and handling to make every drive an experience to remember.

A powerful, all - aluminium 2 - litre engine mated with a 5 - speed manual transmission delivers exciting, flexible response that meets any driving style and all driving conditions.

And the ultra - rigid body and carefully - tuned suspension give sure handling to match the exhilarating performance. Plus large front disk brakes with booster give positive, fade - resistant stopping power. It all adds up to a superbly- balanced class - leading package that redefines the sports compact, offering power to spare, and handling and braking that keep you firmly in control.

For the young and trendy, they will find the Mazda3 quite entertaining with a 6cd Mp3 player fitted in dash for ultimate driving entertainment with surround sound.

The ambience of the lighting when driving in the evening is second to none, given the blue and red combination of lighting on the cockpit.
