Are you inspired by stylish design? Excited by the promise of a spirited drive? Feel assured by superior craftsmanship and insightful engineering? You can have all this and more in a new Mazda3. Available in Hatch or Sedan, the new Mazda3 features more of that special feeling we call Zoom-Zoom. Available in a number of trim levels including: Neo, Maxx, Maxx Sport and SP23. Enhanced styling is only the beginning. Re-designed front and rear bumpers accentuate the evocative styling of the Mazda3 and newly designed alloy wheels combine with a fresh colour palette for an excitingly stylish new look.

Performance you can feel. The 2.0L engine in Neo, Maxx and Maxx Sport gains an electronic throttle and Sequential Valve Timing (S-VT), for enhanced power, responsiveness and improved fuel economy.

The 2.3L engine in the SP23 also benefits from an electronic throttle and is now mated to two new transmissions; either a 6-speed manual or 5-speed Activematic with paddle shift control for spirited driving and improved fuel economy.

Equipment levels are given a boost. Cruise control is now standard on Maxx and above while the Mazda3's audio system now features an auxiliary input (3.5mm stereo) in the centre armrest console along with an additional 12V power outlet so you can plug in your MP3 player for enhanced aural clarity.

Safety is always a top priority.

And now all new Mazda3's feature ABS with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) and Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) as standard. Innovative new safety technologies are also available across the range with Dynamic Stability Control available as part of the optional Safety Pack on Neo, as a stand alone option on Maxx, Maxx Sport and SP23 and standard on SP23 Luxury Pack.
