Mazda 3
The Mazda 3 was brought to the market in 2003 and is still being made by the Mazda Corporation in their Hofu plant in Japan. It can be classified like a compact car and it was the replacement for the 323 class of cars.The Mazda 3 is categorized in the compact class of cars where there are two body styles, the five door hatchback and 4 door sedan that happen to be built good FF layout. Your body is dependant on the C1 platform from Ford. There’s also a different platform employed for a sports vehicle trim which is called the Mazdaspeed 3 There are many engines intended for this model. There are seven different engines ranging from auto 1.4 L approximately both the.3 L version, all have four cylinders. In addition there are three different transmissions which can be chosen from. Two are automatic transmissions and either a Four or five speed may be chosen and the third is a 5 speed manual transmission.The new Mazda 3 MPS now employs three highly rigid steering gear mount bushings as opposed to the two suited for the first sort model. The device also features electro-hydraulic power assisted steering (EHPAS), which adjusts control prior to vehicle speed and steering angle to appreciate precise, solid response for an outstanding feel to tire operation. Control is set for further accurate a reaction to vehicle speed, providing a lighter feeling at slower speeds and a firmer, confidence-inspiring feeling at higher speeds. Steering is direct and sharp at just 2.7 turns from lock to lock.

Mazda 2
Mazda 2
The new-look Mazda 2 is set to be a huge hit thanks to its bold, sexier curves. The supermini is also lighter, quieter and returns an impressive 47mpg. We reckon it's a makeover that our own Trinny and Susannah would be proud of.
But Mazda frequently refuse to follow the motoring herd, which is why their new 2 model is a refreshing return to nimble superminis as we used to know them.

The Mazda 2 proves that small can still be beautiful, cheeky and, in the case of this Mazda, sporty as well. It's a striking little bundle of curves and sharp flowing lines that make it one of the best-looking cars of its kind, alongside the Fiat Grande Punto and Vauxhall Corsa.

The new 2 is actually 40mm shorter at 3,885mm, and lighter, weighing in at just 955kg - and that's despite the fact it is wider than the previous model.

Mazda's calorie-counting engineers have put the 2 on a crash diet at motoring's very own Fat Club, stripping weight across the car right down to a tiny 98g from the door-mounted speakers.
Forget every second counts - every gram counts here. And that weight loss helps in the all- important battle to improve fuel economy, with the 1.3litre petrol returning 52mpg and the 1.5litre 47mpg, while the 1.4 turbo diesel will return in excess of 60mpg.The lightness and more compact size also means that the 2 Handling and ride comfort have been another priority.
