Test drive Mazda Mazda 3 (Axela) Sedan since 2009 sedan

The first test drive of the new Mazda 3: From Veliky Novgorod to Pskov

akhana of a new generation of Mazda 3 waited for all the masters who had already managed to be related to the three -year -old three -year -old year. However, a fresh car will delight not only loyal fans, but also many other lovers of iron horses. To check whether the new Mazda 3 domestic conditions is worthy, the Russian representative office of the company invited Finamauto.ru on the roads of the Novgorod and Pskov provinces.
The differences between the new treshka and the previous version are cardinal. An updated pretty shell was filled with a cocktail of electronic functions that are really necessary and pleasant and improved dynamic characteristics.
So, about everything in order. Many have already seen the face of a new three -three, and I still doubt that the multipliers of Disney studio have not put their hand to external design. The corners of the radiator lattice are upturned, and the shape of the headlights resembles a cheerful squint of the eyes.
If you follow the body changes over the past few years, then you can notice the emerging tendency of vision of the car by artists: the car should always move, even when it is. Well, or at least create such a feeling. Here, the treshka was no exception, her forms became more clear, sports and dynamic. Moreover, both the sedan and the hatchback look equally good. However, for my taste, the appearance of the latter is much more advantageous.
 
Changed headlights that do not protrude and are inscribed in the contours of the body, as well as other innovations improved the aerodynamic characteristics of the car. The frontal resistance coefficient in the sedan is now 0.28, at the moment one of the best in the classroom.
In the filling, options were added that create additional comfort to the driver and passengers. This number includes the backlight of the mirrors in the sunscreen, a compartment for documents in a glove box, a two-zone climate control, heating the seats has become three-level, the trunk opens with a small button outside. Even if the car is very dirty, only one finger will have to stain. And finally, you can listen to disks in mp3 format! Previously, only licensed CDs were supported in Mazda 3, and a small mp3 in Europe is considered pirate.
The updated salon is very different from the previous one. The branded blue-red backlight has been preserved, but the torpedo has become more sports. All elements have become more sporty corners became sharper, and the components of the decoration themselves have become larger. The number of information displays increased to two, and both of them were taken to the second floor. By the way, there was an option to color the salon in light beige. The tissue upholstery of the seats is in harmony with the same color of the lower half of the plastic in the cabin. However, in such a contrasting version, some defects in the assembly on the same doors are noticeable. In some places, the gaps when docking the parts are several millimeters. At the same time, the quality of the front panel and materials at decent praise levels.
 
The review from the car is good, and emergency situations related to the driver’s low awareness of the situation on the road will not cause. The landing is shallow, but does not put the driver for public display the golden mean. By the way, in the maximum configuration there is an electronic adjustment of the driver's seat.
Feedback on the steering wheel allows you to completely feel the car at all reasonable speeds. The driver will not have any problems either with a sharp maneuver from a place or during rebuilding in a stormy stream.
The new generation sports suspension became more comfortable, and she was able to brighten up the uneven track of the Great Novgorod Pskov. The engines remained the same 1.6 liters with 105 horses and a two -liter, hundred -fifty -strong power. During the test, I managed to feel both options with automatic transmission. 105 forces paired with a machine gun on the highway, of course, a little insecure set of speed during overtaking makes adrenaline produce in the body. On the two -liter version, the same maneuvers are made many times easier. The driver’s confidence in the car is the best quality in the car.
Continuing the tradition that appeared with the new Mazda 2, the new treshka became more economical and closer to nature. CO2 emissions are reduced, and fuel consumption in the mixed cycle is 6.5 l /100 km for minimum configuration and 7.6 liters per 100 km in a two -liter machine. Such indicators were achieved not only due to the modification of the engines themselves, but also to reduce the mass of the car.
Summing up, without crafty, we can say that the new generation of Mazda 3, is really new from all sides. And in this context, the new is really the best.
