Continuing to raise its profile as one of the best choices in the C segment, Mazda3 hatchback and sedan model lineup has been further refined with the new and powerful Euro 6-compliant, 105hp (78kW) SKYACTIV-D 1.5 turbodiesel.
As any vehicle enthusiast will tell you, this upgrade significantly increases Mazda3’s competitiveness in the segment. But not only that: the new engine also features low compression ratio of 14:8:1 and distinctive variable turbine geometry turbocharger. What it does is to generate CO2 emissions as low as 99g/km and to return average fuel economy from just 3.8l/100km.
And as expected, this is just one aspect of the overall improvement. Along with the precise SKYACTIV technology, the vehicle also catches the eye with KODO – Soul of Motion design. With its innovative, lightweight and ultra-stiff body construction, the Mazda3 remains one of the lightest and most elegant vehicles in the whole C-segment.
