NEW MAZDA 3 5-DOOR REVEALED

Like the Mazda 3 sedan that we’ve already seen, the new Mazda 3 hatchback has an unsettling front end that is so happy one wonders what it’s been smoking. Unlike the sedan, the hatchback features a sleek and appealing rear end that nearly makes up for all the offenses of the front.

Europe will be the first to spot the 3 at the Bologna Motor Show. Because of this, it is the 182-horsepower 2.2L diesel that will take centre stage. Read about the sedan here.
