3 MPS

Are you the type of person who experiences 0 to 100 km/h in 6.1 seconds and can't wipe the smile off your face? Then you'll probably get New Generation Mazda3 MPS. The super sporty, aggressive body that makes it look ready to pounce doesn't appeal to the faint hearted. The performance it delivers is for those who can handle it.

If you're a true MPS driver, you'd know that the new bonnet scoop is only a hint at the power underneath. And that inter-cooling, direct injection and turbo charge is a potent combination, capable of pumping out 190kW and a massive 380Nm of torque from a 2.3 litre four-cylinder engine. You'd also get the fact that scorching power is nothing without the precision of torque-sensing limited slip differential and sports suspension.

If you get the grunt, you'd also appreciate that it comes with the kind of premium, advanced features you don't see everyday, such as satellite navigation, Bluetooth® connectivity and Smart keyless entry with push-button start. The refined, driver-centric, interior makes this rare beast a beauty equipped for serious driving. If that's where you'd rather be sitting right now, then you definitely get it.
