9:39 I actually appreciate that Mazda created minimalistic, nontouch and small screen infotainment. The center of a car should be driving experience and not infotainment. And also there will be less distraction with smaller screen. With Mazda I would just like it a little lower so it does not distract the drivers view and having smaller bezel. And not only that, Mazda supports HD audio files (FLAC) with Bose system so it really shows how much they care about people enjoying driving the car.

[@HeikkiHeiskanen]

Yeah, I would prefer there to not be any infotainment at all. So the mazda way is absolutely fantastic imo.

Honestly yeah. I had a 15 crosstrek and the screen was huge but I really only ever looked at it to turn on the Bluetooth or the camera backing up.

I couldn’t agree more. The screens are placed in a way that your eyes travel less distance from the road. It’s a safety thing in essence and driving experience benefit if you think about it. Godspeed

[@JimHawdon]

Bigger screen might be better though for reading faster. That’s probably the only improvement.

The Mazda3 ditched the touch screen for safety purposes. They also pushed the screen way forward to minimize your glance travel from the road.

[@schwenda3727]

Also, they're Just about THE only NON luxury brand to give you the German style control knob last I checked (i.e. i drive & whatever Merc & Audi have). Not only that but literally across their entire lineup (I believe the bigger nissans have something similar, but most likely NOT available on SL/platinum Rogue/sentras/altimas/etc). Even the subcompact enterprise lot econobox Yaris iA sedans (which is literally just a badge engineered Mazda 2) has the control knob. And I certainly can't be the only person here that'd rather have that knob rather than getting your presumably dirty hands all over the screen and it starts looking disgusting just within the week alone. Granted it IS a pain in the ass to change radio stations unless you're going through the favorites. Especially outta town; Keep forgetting the buttons DON'T "seek" through each station, but rather only the preselected favorites.

Hey Doug, I've noticed in a few videos that you mention the missing pocket on the driver seat is cost cutting. The actual reason for that is not to disturb the driver, especially in family cars, kids tend to put too many stuff in there and yank on that thing for no reason thus moving the seat and bothering the driver, so some automakers decided to completely remove it. That's why its always the one on the driver seat missing

[@WorksOnMyComputer]

Nah its cost cutting. Many brands do it. If that makes you feel better to make up a story around it, ok.

I think both reasons makes sense tbf, but it’s probably more on cost cutting, but the excuse given is so it doesn’t unnecessarily disturb the driver. You can get it after all as an upgrade.

@Some Guy If you're saying you need to "floor it" to reach 140 km/h, then in my opinion that is probably an incorrect statement. In my 2015 Mazda 2 (90hp) (Demio in US?), flooring it is only needed to go above 160 km/h and the top speed I reached was 184 km/h. I've found the amount of torque of the Mazda engines to be very good above 3.000 rpm. Interestingly enough, as I reached 180 km/h or so, the car advised me to shift from 5th to 4th gear, but I didn't really dare as I was afraid I'd go over the rpm limit. :D

I bought my 2020 Mazda3 a few weeks ago, and I really like it. It has a sleek elegant design, inside and out, and it performs really well too. I purchased the Select trim, which is just one step up from the Base model, about $21,357 not including sales tax and doc fees. The Select trim has all the safety features I was looking for, including rear cross traffic alert, lane assist, auto cruise control, Apple car play, and more. Other manufacturers force you to purchase more expensive trim levels to get these features. As for the infotainment center, I find the sound system much better than my 2018 toyota, my trade in. I like it without having to touch the screen, which happens to be plenty big enough, because I find it easy to navigate, and it doesn’t get my fingerprints all over it. To avoid having to scroll through all the radio stations, simply create a favorites list, and this will make it much easier to skip to your next station. One last thing. The Mazda3 has a Sport mode, which I really like a lot because it helps me to zip around traffic and it’s also a lot of fun to drive.

They were good reliable cars mechanically, but they had severe problems with rust and perforation

[@mrheyfuckoff1]

They are still extremely common here in Australia. Mazda is loved in this country, lots of teenagers get used 3’s as their first car.

Yup had a 2005 Mazda 3 and it was good mechanically but the fenders started bubbling and rusting off

[@CSavardDaigle]

Does it have the panoramic floor?

Still have my 2004 Mazda 3 sedan, 235,000 plus miles, No Rust (NONE) mechanically sound. Runs so well, can’t get rid of this car. Take care of the car, it takes care of you. May purchase this new M3. Would like to see a turbo on that 2.5L..., would kick up the fun factor...

The small storage cubby on the left of the steering wheel is actually very useful for me personally, I use it to store my Garage remote, it feels like a place designed for it

[@sachinnair1613]

What about the sun visor? That's where I always kept my garage clicker

[@wizg3356]

I just use it to store coins so that when you need a shopping cart, u can just use that

My garage remote fits here perfectly once I remove the clip from it. All I have to do is open the door and press the button without even removing it.

[@mattb9748]

​@@sachinnair1613where it not only clutters the interior like it's 1982, but it's also an invitation for someone to break into your car in the driveway and use your remote to open your garage. At least with the cubby it's out of sight and less of a temptation.

6 out of 10 for styling.. what competitor is even close?

[@imachavel]

I am no car expert and do not mean to generalize at all but to me just about any car wether it is acura, alfa romeo, audi, bentley, bmw, bugatti, Cadillac, chevy, Dodge, Ford, honda, jaguar, jeep, lamborghini, Lexus, mazda, Mercedes, nissan, peugeot, porsche, ultima, Toyota, ultima, Volkswagon or what have you that has around 450 horse power and is an all wheel drive version wether car or SUV is going to be about the best driving experience you can get. Too much lower in specs and you get cheap and unreliable too much higher and you get towards the range of vastly expensive and inpractical and further geared towards performance over features and luxury and reliability. I love engineering and try and keep up with all the newest cars with what practically passes for jet engines under the hood but for every day driving how can you beat AWD with 450 horse power? It is not like in the 1970s either where every car manufacturer aside from their F1 series practically made only 1 type of car that was known for just one type of driver. Just about every car company now has a low end sedan, higher end drop top roadster, SUV, or high end sports line up. If you have a favorite car manufacturer and look for AWD between 400-500 horse power chances are you will not be disappointed. I personally like Lexus, that is my preference.

[@MrJKS247]

He should base the scores on cars in the same class.

@@JBD915 it shares the same scale as the fancy supercars. If it gets an 8, what about cars like Lamborghini, Ferrari, Bugatti ....... Personally I think it's amazing this car gets a 6 for styling as a normal compact car.

[@pleasingsnail7048]

The Mazda 3 isn't that good looking. It's lack of enticing angles makes it just look like a blob. Nothing is special about it. Used to think the Civic looked tacky but I'd take that over this styling

oh maaaan i just made that commnt and then i scrolled down a bit and saw this comment, would you mind if i dont delete my comment?

[@millennial_weeb2382]

9:45 That’s the point? It’s an intentional design, the screen is not mean’t to be touched & the farther away it is, the easier it is to keep in-view while you drive decreasing distraction. Also since the screen is further away it dosen’t need to be as big to actually see & read what is there. So your problem with the screen is subjective, you just personally want a touchscreen & don’t like being limited. Though then again the Dougscore itself is subjective so you can have it.

[@jj_cars99]

Drawback is longer distraction

[@millennial_weeb2382]

@@jj_cars99 How are you distracted when you never have to take your eyes off the road to interact with it? You literally don’t know what you’re talking about and won’t even get the opportunity to even test drive a current model year vehicle. Stop. The. Cap.

[@jj_cars99]

@@millennial_weeb2382 Let me explain. Even if the infotainment system is at a far distance, the way you control it is finicky. You're having to navigate to the menus using a dial or touchpad and also you look at the road at the same time. This makes distracting driving even longer than a non-touchscreen one.

[@jasper4871]

Have a Mazda 3. Love not having to look at screen for more than a glance - can’t stand touch screens, but just personal preference. Also think it’s great how small the screen is - doesn’t take over interior.

[@FoxPerformance326]

I think you've been harsh with it... 6 for styling, would rather give a 7 / 3 for fun factor, would give a 4 / 6 for quality, would give a 8 considering reliability and materials...

[@connorking984]

Get spent the whole video praising it then gave it avg scores

Why does anyone even watch the Doug score part? It’s completely arbitrary and predictable. Merc-AMGs/expensive shit get high scores, normal cars get low scores. Doug has a rich asshole bias.

[@huupie2303]

[@thelinux]

You can switch between your favorite radio stations by the press of one button: either on the steering wheel (next / previous), or by pushing the small wheel dial sidewards. Hold the star-button to add a station to your favorites. I personally love that they've gone small and non-touch screen with the infotainment. Especially while driving I much prefer using the nice-feeling dial over tapping on some tablet. But of course that's a matter of opinion. Great review!

[@zylo999]

That's what really annoys me about Doug. He claims to read the manual and explore the car but people keep correcting him on his nitpicks and half baked criticisms.

Scotty says that speaker is an overpriced piece of crap. I tend to believe him

[@ccllvn]

Ass Eater2000 if the speaker isn't crap then why is it a generic Chinese speaker sold as "Bohm" on Amazon and Alibaba for $40? For that price it might be ok, but they market it at 200 dollars and make you think you get a deal paying $90 for it....
