2010-13 Mazda 3
No wonder the Mazda 3 is the brand's best-selling car. This model boasts a stable ride, solid cabin appointments, a versatile hatchback body style, and a fun-to-drive character unmatched by most [...]
2011-14 Mazda 2
Mazda's entry-level car succeeds as a refined, fun-to-drive hatchback, with a cabin ambiance that belies its new-car price. Acceleration is far from quick, and it's not quite as versatile as some [...]
