2010 Mazda MAZDASPEED3 Overview
Reminiscent of the MAZDA3, the redesigned 2010 MAZDASPEED3 is a sporty yet stylish hatchback that takes the term speed to a whole new level. Loaded with just enough safety technologies as to not interfere with the actual driving experience, the 2010 MAZDASPEED3 allows you to take control of your own driving destiny.
Still powered by a 263-horsepower, 2.3-liter turbo engine mated to a six-speed manual transmission with overdrive, the new MAZDASPEED3 has one of the strongest engines in its class and is one of the most powerful front-wheel-drive performance cars under $25,000. EPA-estimated fuel ratings are a mediocre 18 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on the highway. Compared to the competition— Volkswagen GTI, Chevrolet Cobalt SS and Mini Cooper S JCW—the 2010 MAZDASPEED3 hatchback features one of the most powerful engines in its class. It boasts a stylish new design for the 2010 model year and a new engine scoop to further enhance engine performance.
The 2010 MAZDASPEED3 sits on 18-inch wheels and features a distinctive and slightly menacing front grille. But the improvements start with a hood that now features an intercooler scoop to improve charge air cooling, provide consistent engine output and enhance fuel efficiency. Large dual exhaust tips and a roof-mounted rear spoiler decorate the rear.
As for safety, the 2010 MAZDASPEED3’s structure has been stiffened through the use of high-strength steel, which allows for a firmer suspension without compromising ride comfort. Brake assist, which shortens stopping distance by immediately applying full brake pressure upon the moment of hesitation, has been upgraded from mechanical to a new electronically controlled system. Steering response has also been improved through a more rigidly mounted steering rack.
Standard features include illuminated vanity mirrors, LED gauges, aluminum pedals and dual-zone climate control. An available MAZDASPEED3 Tech Package offers advanced keyless entry, push-button start, a compact full-color navigation system, Sirius Satellite Radio, 6-CD changer, and a BOSE Centerpoint surround sound stereo system.
Zoom-zoom gets a facelift and retains its awesome power with the newly redesigned 2010 MAZDASPEED3 hatchback.
