My Mazda3 SKYACTIV review



Here's my latest review: 2012 Mazda3 i Grand Touring SKYACTIV. A heck of a deal considering all the stuff you get. Great driving dynamics and a 40 MPG rating. There were a few things I didn't like, though. Check it out:

How long were there 3 people in the car during the test drive ? 32 is not all that bad if 3 were in it for most of the test drive . Should be near 35 with just the driver .

Agreed. I would say they were in it 3/4 of the time.

It has an MMA mouthguard now.

Sharp looking car for sure.

Great review.

Odd that your taller companions felt cramped. I'm 6'4" and I feel there is room to spare in either front seat in the 3. Rear is always a tight squeeze unless the driver is super short.

Thanks.

You know, if just one of my passengers had said they weren't comfortable, I would've written it off. But to have three say that? I thought it was worth noting.
