2010 Mazda3 s Sport 5-Door - December 2009 Four Seasons Review - Automobile Magazine
Even as the miles wore on during two recent road trips, our Mazda 3 remained comfortable and engaging.

Even as the miles wore on during two recent road trips, our Mazda 3 remained comfortable and engaging. During a Thanksgiving trip to Boston, assistant editor David Zenlea found the seats supportive over the long haul while the 3's chassis soaked up bumps and kept the drive lively. Having made the same trip two weeks earlier in our long-term BMW 7-series, Zenlea made the surprising assessment that the 3 was "significantly more enjoyable." His only gripe during the1600-mile drive was the navigation system that failed to warn him about standstill traffic near the Canadian border costing him hours and forcing him into a hotel for the night.inline_mediumwraptextright25452041/reviews/12_month_car_reviews/0912_2010_mazda3_s_sport_5_door_december_update0910_01_z+2010_mazda3_s_sport+front_three_quarter_view.jpgTrue

2008 Mazda Kiyora – By Design

2008 Mazda Kiyora - By Design
2008 Mazda Kiyora - Mazda Concept Car Design - Automobile Magazine
The Kiyora is a full-out dream car, as far from production as the long-ago Cadillac Cyclone and just as wonderful in its own way.

Make no mistake, the Mazda Kiyora is not a concept car. At least, not as the term is typically used these days, when what is presented as an idea about the future is in fact a hastily restyled upcoming production car, presented to prepare public opinion in advance: "Wow, the new Thingamajig came from the Chimera concept car." No way will we see versions of the Kiyora on the streets anytime soon. Or ever.

2010 Mazda Tribute GT Review

Stay connected Subscribe to our RSS feed
Families need compact SUVs. This category is mostly filled with vehicles that offer plenty of room for two or three kids, that can load up enough groceries for a week and that can get through the snowy season with relative ease. And they also must not cost a fortune, because if you have small kids like me, you know how much it costs to keep them happy. Full story...

2010 Mazdaspeed3 Review

Stay connected Subscribe to our RSS feed
I'm young, dumb and full of... well, you know, residual teenage angst. I may not like video games or online poker but I surely do appreciate fast cars. I don't got much money so I can't go out and buy myself an Audi R8, a Porsche Cayman (although I would sell everything I own to make a small down-payment for one) or even a Chevrolet Camaro. So when I get to drive cars that are quick, snappy and affordable, I tend to get excited. Full story...

2010 Mazda 3 vs MazdaSpeed 3 – Comparison

2010 Mazda 3 vs MazdaSpeed 3 - Mazda Sports Hatchback Review - Automobile Magazine
A bright red Mazdaspeed 3 recently showed up at the Automobile Magazine HQ, giving us the perfect chance to compare it side-by-side and back-to-back with our long term Mazda 3s Grand Touring hatchback.

Like Rusty, I'm close to the target demographic of the Mazdaspeed 3. I've certainly sung its praises in the pages of Automobile and on these Web pages, and all of that has been well-deserved. But if given the choice, I'd put my own money towards the base Mazda 3 without a second's hesitation.inline_mediumwraptextright26071454/reviews/editors_notebook/0911_2010_mazda3_vs_mazdaspeed30911_08_z+2010_mazda3_vS_mazdaspeed3+front_three_quarter_view.jpgTrue

Unlike the Fiesta, the Mazda2 will only be available as a four-door hatchback.

Ford may be throwing a party for its new Fiesta at the 2009 Los Angeles auto show, but it's not the only automaker introducing a subcompact hatchback into North America. In fact, Mazda's using the same venue to launch its 2011 Mazda 2 into the New World.inline_mediumwraptextright31530639/features/news/0912_2011_mazda_mazda20912_06_z+2011_mazda_mazda2+front_three_quarter_view.jpgTrue

As winter approaches, we've now fit our Mazda 3 with Continental ExtremeWinterContact winter tires.

As winter approaches, we've now fit our Mazda 3 with Continental ExtremeWinterContact winter tires in preparation for the snow, slush, and ice storms that we're sure to receive. Our new tires match the stock rubber in size at 205/50TR-17 and sell for $114 each. We're used to making compromises to ride and handling when fitting our cars with snow tires, and the Continentals are no exception. The 3's sharp steering is dulled, handling is less confident, and the ride significantly choppier. "I noticed a lot more torque steer while accelerating, and the Mazda wandered on the highway, requiring significantly more corrections than when it was on the stock all-season tires," commented copy editor Rusty Blackwell. On the other hand, we're expecting these tires to be quite grippy once the snow starts flying.inline_mediumwraptextright26071445/reviews/12_month_car_reviews/0911_2010_mazda3_s_sport_5_door_november_update0911_03_z+2010_mazda3_vS_mazdaspeed3+head_to_head.jpgTrue

(Irvine, CA) The long-anticipated 2011 Mazda2 will make its North American debut at the 2009 Los Angeles Auto Show next month. Designed and engineered by Mazda, and already an award-winner in countries all over the world, the Mazda2 brings a level of style and driving dynamics to the North American subcompact segment that no other competitor can offer. The vehicle will be sold in the U.S. and Canada beginning in late 2010. Full story...
