Mazda3 is a premium compact hatchback these days as the Japanese carmaker is shifting the brand upmarket. Mazda Premium philosophy is all about design, mastery, joyfullness, etc. If you’re into that I respect that, but I’m more interested in how it drives.

At launch in Europe Mazda3 is available with a 122 hp Skyactiv-G engine. Some markets also get a Skyactiv-G diesel. The fancy Skyactiv-X will be available later in the autumn of 2019. Mazda also uses a 24-volt M-Hybrid (or mild-hybrid) system.

Starting price: 23 000 euro
As tested: ~30 000 euro
