You can count a delightful driving experience in the 2018 Mazda3, especially with its state-of-the-art SKYACTIV® TECHNOLOGY. The 2.0-liter, four-cylinder SKYACTIV®-G engine generates 155 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque, and for even greater performance, you can opt for the 2.5-liter, four-cylinder SKYACTIV®-G engine, which delivers 184 horsepower and 185 lb-ft of torque. Drivers have a choice of two transmissions: the SKYACTIV®-MT 6-speed manual or SKYACTIV®-DRIVE 6-speed automatic. Additionally, all Mazda3 models include G-Vectoring Control, which uses the engine to put a minute amount of weight on the front tires, which makes steering inputs more surefooted and improves stability.
