2024 Mazda3 2.5 TURBO Premium + // Mazda Money // German PERFORMANCE - 0-60 + Road Test

[@CrunchyTire]

I have the 2022 2.5l Turbo PP hatchback for 2.5 years now. I drove it across the entire country on a 14,000 mile trip over 3 months and I couldn't wait to keep driving. Plus I've moved apartments twice with it. I got the cargo roof rack and box too so I can move a ton of stuff or even hook a ladder on it. The turbo still gets good gas mileage. Its a great car.

The sedan looks so nice. I would take that over the hatch in a heartbeat.

the hatchback kind of looks like a shoe, but it grows on you. But more importantly, THE SPACE. You can fit a lot of stuff in the car for its size. A hatchback is like a small truck with good gas mileage, especially when you add the roof rack. The thing about looks is this: When Im driving it I cant see the outside. The features and usability are what matter. Looks come after that. But it still looks good lol.

This turbo or the NA 2.5 with the manual trans? I have the 2024 manual hatch and love it but have yet to drive the turbo but now I'm thinking I'll take one out for a test drive just to weigh the pros/cons and see what the extra power is all about. All things being equal I'd take a hatch over a sedan.

The turbo comes in the highest trim which is full of semi smart features, which require an automatic transmission. It can be shifted into manual mode though, and it has little shifter paddles on the steering wheel which is cool. While I would prefer manual, I wouldn't trade it for all the modern features on the car.
