The hatch looks much prettier and sexier than sedan. For me Mazda 3 is for someone who are very simple person but have a very high taste. I would buy this over the Civic. Good review Adrian!
The hatch looks too good...
Glad you enjoyed the video 😃
Accurate description.
And have good money too
I like how no one is talking about the way he explains the cars. Very detailed and concise.
I was surfing UA-cam for today's Mazda video's and came across this. It would be an understatement to say I was surprised by the content, quality and entertainment value of this piece.
We all know that there is much drivel and nonsensical content on UA-cam. Consequently, it is a pleasure to find something this engaging. And, yes, I "liked" it and subscribed.
Appreciate the support!
the type of review i would like to watch and listen, great work
Nice review, beautiful car and perfect editing
nice comment
I totally agree with all your comments about the new Mazda 3, it really true to its promise from the design and the driving dynamics. I just love this car specially the hatchback.👌 👌 😀 😀
Not sure if anybody got the joke at 8:00 but props for that excellent play on words if it was intentional. Good vid, keep it up!
I see you I subscribe. Great review with sufficient details about the car. Felt like it’s the Malaysia version of carwow
Appreciate the support!
You are right. The Mazda 3 won the World Car of the Year design award just this week. It’s simply an amazing design! It definitely stands out from all of it’s competitors.Thanks for the review!
Appreciate the support!
Very nice review, totally about the (highly pertinent) details, as you say before every video, Adrian!
I bought my first Mazda CX-5 almost a year ago, a 2013 which is the first iteration of the first generation with a clearly, often-felt underpowered engine -- but I still love the car.
I can't wait to buy newer models! I'm more of a sedan and hatchback guy because a CUV's height introduces too much body roll for me, however minimal compared to Toyotas and Hondas small CUVs, so I'll be looking toward the Mazda 6.
PS: I live in Michigan, a temperate zone U.S. state with a fair amount of snow in winter time, and find I don't need or desire all-wheel drive. Too much expense for what you get. I will be getting the best new, truly all-weather tires, probably Goodyear Weather Ready for my next sedan or hatchback to be used in ride-sharing.
Another great video. I enjoy all your videos. Thank you.
Appreciate it!
You just broke down why I love the look of these cars.Very nice review
Appreciate it!
Excellent & informative review 👍🏼
I got the 2020 hatchback in deep
Crystal blue! It’s beautiful!
you are very good at this, subbed even though I don't buy cars left and right, but mazda 3 is definitely my consideration as my first car
My dream car. Thanks for the review!
Hope your dream comes true! 😃
Don't lie. Last time you said your dream car was a Ferrari :P
Never expect silver would look good on a car till I see this 😱
We still prefer it in red though 🤭
Awesome Vid!
Terrific review!
i love how poetic this guy is with cars
I liked this Mazda review.
I like even more with the style of delivery, assertive, confidence and frank to Malaysian needs and wants in cars...
Thanks! 😃
Great content liked and subscribed from Oz
Well reviewed and explained. Lovely car. Looks sharp.
Glad you liked it!
Mazda has never failed 2 impress me with its design. RX7 efini, Lantis 323F, Cronos 626 & many more.. This new Mazda3 is just another jewel to their crown.
Well done bro.. ur quite impressive..
Yes, Mazda is on point with their design. Thanks! 😃
After your video I'm definitely lusting after the Mazda 3, it is beautiful especially in saloon (sedan) form. :-))
Awesome!
Damn this is one of the nicest, beautiful car I have ever seen. Patiently waiting for 2.5T to deliver before I pull the trigger.
The turbo sure looks sweet!

This channel deserves more views
Appreciate the support 😃
Subscribed right the way after watching a few videos hosted by Adrian. Smooth, practical, and informative! One question tho, how’s the cabin noise during both low and high speed?
Pls ignore my question. Found the answer on your website! Subscribed to your FB as well! Thank you!
Glad you found our website helpful! 😃
Very well explained on the car i really brought my mother to see the car and she loves it. Bought it on the spot after viewing the car for the liftback high plus. Definitely no regrets and price is worthy !
Glad to hear you're enjoying your new car!
How's the car doing so far? Might be getting one as well and am interested to know has there been any dissatisfaction thus far
I bought a used Mazda 2 as my first car, after driving my family’s Vios for 4 year. I absolutely love it! Hope I can get Mazda 3 one day
Awesome! The Mazda3 is a great upgrade 😃
Excellent review
I went from a Mazda 2 Skyactiv to this and loved it. I needed something a lil larger after my kid came along. I must say the interior is a touch above entry level European makes. Yea I’m looking at you A class. Many will berate the NA engine and limited space. There will always be haters and to them I say this ; Get an Audi RS Wagon if you don’t want to compromise on space or power. Loved the review btw.
Wow, that's a great upgrade, congratulations 😃
Do you have notes infornt of you when you talk ? All those details how do you remember it and still sound so natural. Haha. Thumbs up.
Purely from memory haha. Thanks!
Great video. Well detailed and exact to the point. Was just wondering how is the fuel economy of this car?
Great video man I’m definitely getting the hatchback now 👍
You should!
As you said “Bring Your Mother to test drive this car and She Will be like “THIS CAR GO WELL AA” “ - very true. My mother love the car!! Worth it
Official HerolAmy taking my mum this monday 🙏
Been living with one for quite some time. The attention to detail is superb. People need to test drive it before commenting on the torsion beam tbh.
Couldn't agree more!

Hi Adrian,
I hope you can do review about Honda Civic 2020 :)
We'll try to arrange!
The sedan is definitely swooning.
Good for you guys in Msia able to choose between 1.5 and 2.0 litre. Here in SG, we only get the weak 1.5 litre engine and with a high price of SGD$89k to $108k. Despite the wonderfully good looks, it is also the first Mazda with a premium selling price which is quite a put off.
Actually we tried the 1.5L Mazda3 and adore its nimble and rev happy engine, so we'd say you're not missing out on much 😃👍
The reality is that the building cost of the MAZDA 3 is expensive. Perhaps even more expensive than that of a BMW or Mercedes Benz. Those German cars may have established themselves as a luxury brand, that's why people (typical Malaysians) are willing pay for them to get recognize for their status. But Mazda, in typical Malaysians mind, are on the level of Toyota and Honda. With a sudden hike in this Mazda 3's price, people aren't willing to accept it. Of course things take time, it'll definitely be few years time for Mazda to establish itself as a luxury brand but now it's only for the ones who can really look beyond the badge to appreciate the details.
Good that you see it!
I know might be distracting, but it needs great ambient lighting like benz class to make it 11/10. and it doesn't cost a bomb for that add on.
I like Mazda 3 Sedan
Beautiful beast!
Indeed!
With what you said at the end regarding about it being not 20% more car than its rivals. Which car would you say would give the most value for money that is the rival?
Just noticed new Mazda 3 wiper blades can spray washer fluid directly from the moving wipers just like Mercedes Magic Vision Control.
I'd take this over its competition. Nice review 👌
Thanks! 😃
If every car were to be this beautiful i think fertility rate will definitely go low
Hahahaha
Lol. Hahaha. It so happens that ppl I know who drive Mazda are Single. Coincidence? Haha
@@Vin84_ thats only 1 ir a few bro
Hahaha good one
In Brunei, Hatchback is a SOLD OUT during this hari raya season!!! Sedan only few limited stock which make it more special to own.
Oh wow! Thanks for sharing!
Nice one..
You mentioned "Feel" alot in this review hahaha..anyway...i was sold, going to get the 2.0 Hatchback after MCO.
It's all about emotion this car, can't measure it based on the spec sheet! 😃
@@WapCar yup. totally understand...i own an Alfa 147....is all about the emotions
Nelson Hew bring me for a drive when u get it bro.
@@enzedaxe4001 which 1? Mazda 2.0 or Alfa 147 hehehehe
I got enough ringet, i got dollars. Good review.
Alright Adrian I subscribe.
Thanks!
my first choice but the price tag is not within my affordability.
i love this car.. it’s beautiful but it does need a hotter version. 0-60 below 7 seconds. i know acceleration isn’t everything but to make this car exciting and irresistible i think it’s necessary
FYI I thought that meter is analogue. So realistic. Not to forget the way Andrian telling about this car felt like this car have something good.
The meter is crazy right 😃 Thanks for the support!
All these while im so hype of proton x50, but to 1 incident where i happen to drove a test drive mazda 3.
Man...my brain told me proton x50 is best bang of bucks but my heart have force me to worship mazda 3
Hahaha "worship", we totally get what you mean 😃
Sure it's more expensive than many rival cars, but you get loads and loads of features and systems in the baseline version. In those other cars, you'd have to pay a lot extra to get the same level, so the price difference is actually not that large unless you're really looking only for a budget car.
That's true but in a price sensitive segment, buyer only look at "best bang for thier buck"
Hi Adrian would appreciate if could review the 1.5 version. Some of us may appreciate smaller rims, lesser rdtax cost & manual adjustment seats.
I own the Mazda 3 sedan for 6 months now and have not looked back since... It is really a driving pleasure both normal or sport mode. Adaptive cruise control is a heaven for a busy commute on a highway. And when you want to play, 130 km/h is easy with sport mode. The cons are, they're not a lot of population of this car. I can't even spot another Mazda 3 sedan for 5 months straight. Hence, you can't get much of the aftermarket parts available.
All in all, this is a great car. Packed with useful features and the latest technology you can't get within the price range of other brands in the same class.
Glad to hear that you're enjoying your Mazda 3!
Yes, I was lusting for the liftback in Soul Red and was ready to book the 2.0L version last month. Then came the Covid-19 pandemic, the MCO and the frightening thought of an impending recession and possibly salary cut. So, plan was shelved. Sorry Mazda. Oh well, maybe next time.....So it remains my dream to own the car which has been declared the World Car Design of the Year 2020 and runner-up to the World Car of the Year. Still dreaming....
Take care during these challenging times, hope your dream comes true!
Mazda care are a joy to drive regardless of models.The interior quality is so good although it may not have those digital clusters preferred by its rivals.
How about the fuel con compare to the civic or corolla ??
Civic most fuel efficient, 1.5 turbo + CVT
Add in running costs review as well.
5 Years free service from Bermaz Motor 😃
Beware, Mazda maintenance skeds state the timing chain never needs to be changed and although the Powertrain Control Module should tell you there is a problem, there have been a lot of CX3/5/7/9's with timing chain problems and ruined engines. Sked also states that the ATF shouldn't be changed unless there is a gearbox failure/component failure. Although the ATF is temp controlled by the radiator and the Transmission Control Module monitors the effects of oil degredation and controls gear changes speeds and timings to prevent slip and shock, there is no service or check interval. Gearboxes are expensive and many Mazda 6's have changed their ATF to prevent failures.
sigh, im driving a CX 5 KE, and I have been convincing myself to look at B-segment sedans (coz I could only afford those lol). But yet, every time i watch one video on the m3, I will just tell myself hold on to your CX-5, save up and get a m3 instead lol...
I love the Mazda 3 Liftback, but the price is a bit too high. It’s a beautiful piece of machinery to date, no doubt.
Now in my 30’s i find it car with sleek and behave design is more astonishing. Maybe due to hormonal change, “taste abah2” has kick in.
Civic Turbo definitely NOT gonna tapau this Mazda 3 as the civic cut off roughly at 208Km/h (I believe this is due to Honda want to jaga the CVT manja gearbox) and I'm sure that this Mazda 3 can speed beyond that
How was the 8 speaker setup?
Fantastic, the EQ settings can be tuned according to frequency
Why mazda not bring in 2.5l turbo to malaysia
If only they place ambient lights... Take my money
The hatchback looks even sexier in real life
Hi Adrian, I just bought a Mazda 3 sedan, coming from Honda City. I found the suspension is firm (or shall I say stiff)… is it just me or Mazda 3 suspension has such characteristic? Appreciate your advice.
how is the driving experience so far from your Mazda 3? Worth the price?
@@bakardream I love the exterior and interior of the car, power is sufficient for my driving habit, suspension is firmer but can be mitigated by using softer tyres like Michelin Primacy 4 with slightly lower tyre pressure, maintenance is free for 5 years so the price difference with its competitors like Honda Civic RS is not that much, with the premium feel worth the price difference. Paint is very susceptible to stone chipping so please put PPF once received the car. Minor glitches like driver seat side airbag and side mirror autofold malfunction are common but claimable. Overall a pleasurable driving experience. Very handsome car.
@@chongjiunkit3901 with the launch of latest civic RS vs. Mazda 3 sedan high plus, what would be your pick as your new car?
@@bakardream Exterior, interior, and build quality wise, Mazda 3… the driving experience part, let the expert car reviewer tell you 🙂
@@chongjiunkit3901 i boking Civic Fe but not get the car yet. And i think want to cancel civic and go for mazda 3 sedan. But until this stil thinking which one is the best. For me mazda 3 now is so handsome car but the space inside is small la for me and family.
I Agree. For Personal car I Will get the Liftback
Nice review, beautiful car. Great to hear someone talk about the driving emotions, etc. So many people just don't get it.
But a "family car"?? Seriously? Rear is no good for a family: Cramped, no ventilation, no connectivity, darkness, high window sills, bad visibility, etc and boot space among others means it is completely and utterly impractical for a family.
If only mazda provide more rear leg room for mazda 3 and maybe a lil bigger boot space
Bigger boot go for sedan
Sportier hatchback
This car appeals to those who want a product that is fine tuned to every single detail. It's not a car that will appeal to those who just want the numbers and to show or to "tapao whoever".
You don't put this next to a Honda Civic.
When you put this next to a Mercedes-Benz A-Class or 1-Series, then you'd see how much better built and to drive the Mazda 3 is compared to so called premium rivals.
Is it worth upgrading to mazda 3 hatchback from mazda 2? Which one is better mazda 3 hatchback or mazda cx30?
Mazda 3 is lower but more spacious. CX-30 is taller, easier to get in and out but smaller legroom. Both are also good upgrade, depends on what you need
I’ve noticed here in the states that the Mazda three is cheaper than the Honda Civic and the Toyota Corolla
how does it compare with vw golf r line
Prefer the sharp handling characteristic of the Mazda3 and the Golf's 1.4TSI doesn't that much faster than the 2.0 SkyActiv-G 😃
But the Golf is more spacious to be in.
The only thing noticeably bad/cheap about this car is the suspension. Other than that its a beautiful car loaded up with luxury.
Hey uhm got a deal for the Mazda 3 sedan 2.0 high showroom Model for 139k
Since It’s on the same price point with civic 1.5tcp (a bit cheaper la 135k)
Mazda or civic? Haha
Definitely go for the Mazda. CBU summore. The Civic is fraught with problems.
Go for MAZDA. Worth it!! Many features installed compared to Civic. Buy Red soul or latest colour!! Very UMPH!!!
So will we be seeing in another 20-30 years all these c segment will reach 200k price by logic of what most of the foreign manufacturers doing here at the moment.. car inflation.. while the value is depreciated over time.. 🤔
Hopefully those times don't come...
Only a child would pick one of them... I want both of it :D
😂
You got me on the first half... Not gonna lie 🤣
Right at 8:26, my google assistant came up.
What about the 1.5L liftback review. Is it a good car to own too? Thanks.
Decent performance for city driving, but will struggle at highway speeds. Features in the 1.5L is quite extensive too and the 16-inch wheels makes it more comfortable to ride in 😃
@@WapCar could you please clarify on the struggle at highway speeds? like at what speed and rpm does it feel not comfy? I usually drive at most at 120kmh
Anyone's Google assistant popped up when he said "hey Google"?
😆
Me too
@@Jerrytan188 🤣
mine came up too😂
Yes 😂
Petition for mazda malaysia to ckd this mazda 3 to lower their pricetag to 140k to 145k territory
Question is would you pay the price tag small car?? Resale value same to as ford.
The new-generation of SkyActiv Mazdas have pretty good resale value
The host didn't mention the hatchback C pillars way too thick and visibility is not good in this mazda 3 especially for rear seater.
The design looks thick but the cabin space visibility doesn't feel lacking. The C-HR felt more claustrophobic 😃
7:58 wait what LOL
A moment of silence for Adrian
I drive this car in Sarawak in daily basis. Before covid 19 of course. A lot of people ask me if this is prototype cause no one ever seen it. I laugh hard.
Such a gorgeous machine 😃
This versus the F20 LCI 118i/120i, which one drives better from your experience Adrian? Let's ignore everything else.
I prefer the driving dynamics of the Mazda 3, more sophisticated handling. The BMW is fun but too twitchy for my liking.
@@WapCar Thanks for the reply. Let me add another car to the comparison. What about this versus Toyota 86 versus F20 LCI 118i/120i?
The 86 is much, much sharper to drive, within the price range of the Mazda 3 too. 😃
how to judge the pricing when there's 0 mention on the I-activsense safety features this car has?
Subscribed. In my opinion, add 10k and buy the passat elegance b8.5 with 2.0 turbo 190hp 320nm of torque. Bigger space and power definately will eat this car.
Ahh the Passat is indeed a good option. But not sure if we can give up the handling of the Mazda 3 🤔
@@WapCar I have driven both the cars, passat HL and new mazda 3. The sophisticated handling will only outshine when you do hardcore touge at mountain roads otherwise both have decent handling. Otherwise in term of power passat is way more powerful than mazda 3 which is noticeable in daily driving and cruising. Space.. hmm mazda 3 rear space is even smaller than honda city whereas the passat is bigger than most c segments like civic and corolla
Yeap, the Passat handles quite well. The new 2.0TSI engine is also more fuel efficient too. Definitely the car to go for if space and practicality is your concern. 😃
Or buy a new Mazda 6 2.0 with less money.
@@enzedaxe4001 underspec, no advanced safety system, and 2.0na for d segment is gonna be heck slow
Im a simple man.
I see Adrian. I click. No homo.
Hahaha, thanks!
Do you prefer sedan or suv ?
SUVs over sedans 😃
@@WapCar ok tq very much for reply
