Great question! Currently, the Mazda 3 doesn't have a dedicated hybrid model, but Mazda has hinted at plans to introduce more hybrid technology across their lineup in the future. However, it's the Mazda CX-50 that offers a hybrid variant, combining Mazda’s efficient design with hybrid technology to enhance fuel economy and reduce emissions. Mazda’s strategy has been to start introducing hybrid and electrified models more heavily with their SUV lineup, which includes the CX-50, rather than the Mazda 3. Keep an eye out, though-Mazda’s push for hybrid options might expand to the Mazda 3 in upcoming model years as part of their evolving eco-friendly strategy!
I just got a Mazda 3 its a nice car however not fan to fact there no option for touch screen on sat nav and the the controls use it are clunky and time consuming to use
The Mazda 3's infotainment system does take a bit of getting used to, especially with the rotary controller instead of a touchscreen. Mazda designed it this way to minimize distraction, aiming to keep drivers’ eyes on the road. It can feel clunky at first, but once you get the hang of it, it tends to be quite intuitive. Hopefully, the sleek design and performance of the car make up for it! Thanks for sharing your thoughts-it’s always great to hear different perspectives!
@@RidetheEast I prefer touch screen me and my father spent whole hour with it yesterday and concluded it's clunky using the wheel search letters for for addresses and locations. My father was going to buy a Mazda 3 as well however he couldn't as he relies heavily on sat nav for delivery and he is not strong knowledge person when it comes to this way putting address in search he needs something that is easy use like touch screen and fast duo jobs and delivering hot food. It's not practical I hope Mazda changes this as I'll be resulting in using my mobile over this system
I totally understand-using the rotary dial to enter addresses can be a bit time-consuming, especially if you're used to a touchscreen. Mazda opted for this setup to reduce distractions, but I get how it might feel clunky if you're relying on it for quick navigation, especially for deliveries! Many drivers do end up using their phones instead for the ease of touchscreen input. Hopefully, Mazda considers adding a touchscreen in future models for people who want that faster option. Appreciate you sharing this feedback
Yeah brooo use a glove to open that car :)))))))))))))).. Is a masterpiece
This car really is a masterpiece-you wouldn’t want to leave even a single fingerprint on it! 😄
Isn’t there also a hybrid model too? Or was that the cx-50?

191 hp ( not 186)
Good catch! You’re absolutely right-it's 191 hp, not 186. Thanks for pointing that out!
