About the Mazda Mazda3 BP
The fourth-generation Mazda3 (BP) marked a significant move upmarket for the brand, introducing the 'Kodo' design language in its most minimalist and sculptural form. The 2.0-litre e-Skyactiv G engine features a 24V mild-hybrid system and cylinder deactivation to improve efficiency without the use of a turbocharger. While it lacks the low-end punch of its turbocharged rivals, it rewards drivers with a linear power delivery and one of the best manual gearshifts in its class. The interior is widely praised for its premium materials and driver-centric ergonomics, often drawing comparisons to luxury German marques.
