View

Following the official debut of the older sibling the all-new 2017 Mazda6 in the United Kingdom, the new and hot Mazda3 is also present on the market with a lot of interesting updates, especially from a technological point of view.

Once it will arrive in dealerships this October, the 2017 Mazda3 will cost £17,995 in the entry-level and £24,195 in the top of the line variant.

For the base price, you get an extremely hot and sexy design style with updated grille and front fog light bezel, adding new side mirrors with wraparound turn indicators, revised rear bumper and a few more.

The gorgeous look is also given by the wide color palette, with the Machine Grey Mica to be one of the most impressive. In case you want more goodies to come with that color, then you will have to through in some extra cash, but you will get 16-inch alloys.

Moving inside, the cabin hosts the latest high-tech tweaks along with the highest-end materials surrounding the entire area. We are dealing here with leather steering wheel, leather seats, switch panels, handle bezels on the doors, updated electric parking brake and so on.

In the engine department, the all-new Mzda3 comes with the same SkyActiv-G technology also found on the Mazda6, which adds more precision to the car`s handling.

The 2017 Mazda3 can be had with a 2.0-liter SkyActiv-G petrol engine, with two configurations, 120 horsepower and 163 horsepower, respectively, while the 1.5-liter SkyActiv-D diesel is available with 104 horsepower. A higher 2.20liter is also making its way underneath, with 148 horsepower.
