Introduction
The Mazdaspeed3 is a true "hot-hatch", featuring a 263-hp, turbocharged, 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine. It comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission, limited-slip differential, stability and traction control and 215/45YR18 tires. Side- and head-protection airbags are standard. There are two versions of the Mazdaspeed3, Sport and Grand Touring, the latter adds rain-sensing windshield wipers, xenon headlights, Bose audio, leather seats and an optional navigation system to the extensive list of standard equipment. The Mazdaspeed3 carries over from 2008 with no changes.
