2014 Mazda MAZDA3 S Long-Term Road Test


Going with the larger four-cylinder engine in the Mazda 3 means slightly decreased mileage, but the performance payoff is worth it.

I think I'd get the 2.0. I have it in my 2013 and it's powerful enough. And the 2014 is lighter and has more low-end torque thanks to the 4-2-1 exhaust manifold they couldn't fit in the 2012-13.
If I had $26K I was willing to put into a compact hatch, I'm getting a GTI.
