2010 Mazda3 Hatch






Looking kind of Vibe-ish, the Mazda3 hatch looks a little better than its sedan sibling, but that's not saying a whole lot. My issues are mostly with the front of the car. Especially from the side, I don't see how that front fender's sculpting fits in with the rest of the design.


Regardless its appearance, the Mazda3 is a tremendously accomplished vehicle and it will continue to ride a wave of success whether or not it is the best looking in its class. From an equipment level, the 3 improves upon its predecessor with available features like dual zone climate control and adaptive bi-xenon headlights. I just wished the darn thing looked better.


My all time favorite small Mazda hatch has to be the European 323f circa 1993-1996.
