The steering was tight but nice, and even though it sat a bit lower than I'd like, it was a nice ride overall. Much better than the Subaru Impreza I had test driven just an hour before. The hatch has bad visibility, not gonna lie about that, but I think it is a great car.

Mazda are getting it right in so many ways. I looked at Toyota and just can't handle their styling. Mazda is doing wonderful interiors now - punching above the price level. Really looking forward to seeing how the new Active X engine is going to behave. I've driven Audis for years but as their prices go up, their options becoming far too expensive and numerous - (ie) you have to spend a fortune to get the car feeling it is well equipped. So Mazda may well be on my car shopping list and my partner's list too.

Nowadays their performance ‘pedigree’ boils down to tight handling and a nice 6 speed manual. Both of which they got rid of this gen. Seriously, torsion beam? Fucking really????

Jake AWD is a desperate gimmick imo. There are very few instances where AWD is noticeably better than FWD with equivalent tires. All AWD does is add an expensive and complicated drivetrain to an unreliable brand, with a platform based on the old Ford Focus. As far as this whole electric craze, it’s just for show and publicity. 99.78% sold in the US are gasoline, doesn’t look like anyone is walking away from that anytime soon.

As a current owner of a Mazda6 Signature and a previous owner of a Mazda3, Mazda is doing amazing things with their interior. The car is still super fun to drive, but sitting inside the car is just pure bliss. Especially the white interior, just so serene and holy hell is it comfortable. Also, you can steer the Mazda6 with like one, maybe 2 fingers, max when just cruising

The torsion beam was needed, the hatches in particular chew through rear strut mounts with the independent setup in the older gens. And once you see how much sheet metal they added on the hatch vs previous gens, you can see why torsion beam was needed.

I bought the new mazda hatchback a month ago and put about 600 miles on it and it's just gorgeous. I drove an Audi A3 before and you can't even compare it. The skyactive X engine that'll arrive in fall with AWD and almost 200HP for under 30k and all those features and quality is beyond everything you'll get from Mercedes, Audi, BMW or VW for this amount of money. An A-Class with similar tech-features will come at about 10-15k more!

@@leonardotorres9388 I totally agree! I owned both the 2004 Mazda 3 (new) and later the 2004 Mazda RX8 (used) and at the time I thought especially the 3's interior and entertainment controls were best in-class. They still have a charm that I feel the more neutral 2019 Mazda 3 dash and controls lack. Not that the 2019 isn't nice! It's just more in the direction of BMW which is rather bland IMHO. (I've owned Mazda 3/RX8, BMW M Roadster, as well as Corvette, Camaro, Impala, Infiniti G37, and others, so I'd like to think I'm not a blind fan boy of any one brand). My last four cars were $55-72k range but I'd feel comfortable in a 19 Mazda 3 in all ways except probably the engine would be a little let down for me. I've always had Mazda in the back of my mind, if only they could step up on the horsepower.

Fantastic review guys. Looks like there’ll be a new Mazda3 in my life (here in Australia) some time soon. Release is in April, and, as a bonus, the Aussie spec cars handle even better than American and Euro spec cars, although we probably won’t get AWD as an option. We also get rear air vents, probably a concession to our unbelievably hot summers. Btw, the Elantra restyle looks like it was done by a five year old. What were they thinking?

nice intro. at first, I thought you were going to do a scene from "The Jerk" (1979), featuring Steve Martin where he is standing on the side of the road trying to hitch a ride. A pick-up truck pulls up a stops and Steve's character asks, "How far you going?" The pick-up driver says, "To the end of the fence." (about 50' from where Steve's character is standing). Steve's character agrees, and says, "Ok, thanks", and gets in the truck. The truck pulls forward about the 50' to the end of the fence and says, "We're here" and Steve's character gets out. Maybe next time...

As someone who owned a 2012 6 and now a 2019 CX-5 and 2020 3, cant say enough about Mazda. Very underrated company. They don't sell a lot of cars mainly due to brand ignorance and lack of dealer networks, but they're definitely quality and reliable. Never had a single issue with either of them with a combined milage of over 300k that required a trip back to the dealership or shop. Just do basic DIY maintenance and they seem to run forever. That aside confused in the video stated the Mazda doesn't have lane keep assist. Is that something specific to the Canadian market? All trims of 3 for the 4th gen got that here in the States. Mines only a mid-trim (Preferred) and it has it.

I bought a 2018 Elantra which I think looks much better than the 2019. But I really wanted it for the fuel economy and cheap maintenance. It has the same drive train and atkinson cycle 2.0L engine as the 2019. I like the idea of having a larger engine that's detuned a little making less power compared to example a smaller 1.5L GDI turbo that has more parts to break or service and is being pushed harder to make power. The 2.0L in the Elantra is also an MPI so no GDI carbon build up issues or high pressure expensive injectors. The list goes on with the Elantra with things like rear drum brakes that should last 150'000km with non-agressive driving and are protected from road debris which is an issue for rear disc brake cars if you drive in winter or dirt roads a lot, traditional 6 speed automatic planatary gear transmission which feels great and should be more reliable than a CVT for example. I've found that I can drive mine faster than average people on the roads and still get 7-8L per 100km fuel economy which is great. The infotainment with Hyundai/Kia is better than any other car I've been in, plus Android auto works flawlessly and the touch screen is large and very responsive with well designed software. So I'm happy for long term with this car.
