Review: 2017 Mazda CX-3 AWD Activ
Mazda is on a roll and everything they make from the diminutive Mazda2 to the iconic MX-5 drive like winners. As impervious as they seem, they’ll have to stumble at one point as praises for KODO and Skyactiv can’t go on forever. And though it’s more of a misstep than an outright fall, it has finally happened and it’s with the CX-3. To be fair, it’s unequivocally the best to drive in its segment; heck it’s even more captivating than most crossovers a segment up. Yet, taken in the greater context of the Mazda automotive universe, the CX-3 feels more of a good story than a great one.

All-New Mazda 3, CX-5 Launching Very Soon

In an interview with the website, Ford Group Philippines Assistant Vice President for Communications, Anika Salceda-Wycoco said that the all-new Mazda 3 will be available later this year, but won't be assembled in the Philippines.
The rumor mill is currently speculating that the all-new Mazda 3 along with the CX-5 compact crossover could be made available as early as the First to Second Quarter of 2012 given that Mazda is now running out their inventory of the current 3. In fact, in the latest price list, only the 1.6 S and 1.6 V (both four door models) are the only ones available.
According to Top Gear Philippines's, the Mazda 3 is currently being assembled in Thailand, so it's pretty much certain that the Philippines's supply of the 3 will come from there. Meanwhile, the CX-5 is currently only being assembled in Japan.

Mazda Philippines Introduces 2023 CX-3 With More Competitive Pricing, Features (w/ Specs)
Barely a year after they refreshed the CX-3 sub-compact SUV, Mazda Philippines is doing detail changes for the 2023 model year which sees them discontinuing one variant, while adding a new one in its place. Either way, they’ve made it more affordable or better loaded than before.

First Drive: 2016 Mazda CX-3 2.0 FWD
There are two ways you can make a successful small crossover: you can simply do what the others are doing, perhaps improve a thing or two in the recipe, or you can take an entirely different approach and chart your own path. There’s no question which direction Mazda is taking with its CX-3. Like how they’ve weaved their magic in the compact car segment with the Mazda3 and the sub-compact car segment with the Mazda2, the CX-3 focuses on the brand’s two key strengths: great to drive and look good doing so.

With the Pricing of the Mazda CX-30 Revealed, It Might Mean the End of the CX-3
With the launch of the Mazda CX-30, there’s been a lot of confusion as to its positioning: will it or won’t it replace the CX-3? Though officially, the CX-3 lives on for now, we may have a clearer picture now for smaller markets such as the Philippines given that Mazda has finally revealed the prices of the CX-30 in its home market of Japan. And quite frankly, things don’t look so good for the CX-3.

2017 Honda HR-V EL vs 2017 Mazda CX-3 Sport 2WD
Objectively, Honda created the sub-compact crossover segment in the Philippines back in 1999. At first, buyers didn’t warm up to something smaller than a compact crossover, but fast forward to today and they’re considered vogue. They’re a foil to the diesel-powered SUVs, providing more style, driving fun, and urban maneuverability while still giving that added ground clearance that people crave nowadays. More than anything, they’re now seen as the compact sedan’s more fashionable alternative. And while you can buy a Honda Civic or Mazda3 for this sort of money, one can argue that going for either HR-V and the CX-3 is a visible sign that you’ve finally made it. The question is: which one is the fashion leader and which is the fashion follower?

3 Ways the Mazda CX-3 is a Cut Above the Competition
If there was one word to describe the Mazda CX-3, it would be head-turner. I had the privilege of a one-week experience with the compact beauty and I kid you not — it literally made heads turn, everywhere I took it. Perhaps it was because of the eye-catching Soul Red variant. Or, it could also be because you don’t see much of the CX-3 on the road. And why is that? Keeping that final point in mind, I took to the streets and found out three ways the CX-3 is a cut above the competition.

UPDATED: Mazda Philippines Confirms CX-3 Will Arrive by End of 2016

This is positive news for those in the market for a sporty subcompact crossover after Mazda Philippines initially said it would be difficult to get any allocation from Japan. Now, it says it has secured inventory, albeit severely limited.

Review: 2012 Mazda3 2.0 R

Admittedly,
when the curtains were pulled off the all-new Mazda3, the reception was a bit
lackluster. Given the first-generation 3 collected numerous accolades and was
for a time, the Philippines’s best-selling compact car, expectations for the
new model was stratospherically high. Plus, since its arrival was a full two
years (and a facelift) behind schedule, everyone was expecting to be blown
away. Rumors circulated about the possibility of having a 2.0-liter hatchback,
a manual transmission option, and even the arrival of the mythical Mazdaspeed3.

Mazda Gives the CX-3 A New Engine and Polymetal Gray Color for 2021
UPDATE: See Mazda Philippines response below (05/21).
The introduction of the CX-30 crossover has somewhat muddled the positioning of the smaller (and much older) CX-3, especially since the gap in pricing doesn’t really amount to much. Well, Mazda seems to have understood the problem and will start to offer the CX-3 with a brand-new engine for 2021 helping it confidently slot below the CX-30 in both price and positioning.

Mazda Philippines Launches CX-5 and Mazda3
It’s been a while since we’ve heard
something exciting from Mazda. The brand of ‘zoom-zoom’ has been quiet, not
being able to launch a significant vehicle since the CX-7 several years ago.
But you know what they say: patience is a virtue. And over the weekend’s Mazda Revolution event, Mazda has
unveiled two promising all-new vehicles for the local market: the CX-5
crossover and the all-new Mazda3.

2012 Mazda 3: Zoom-Zoom at a Price
 |
| Photo by Ulysses Ang |
Now, if you can't wait for an additional week, here's what we've learned about Mazda's new compact car. First, the bad news: the entry-level variant of the all-new Mazda 3 is priced at a not-so-affordable P 999,000. That's right--if you were dreaming of a P 780,000 Mazda 3 like before, you're not going to get one this time around. Still, the P 999,000 (the 1.6L Sedan) comes reasonably loaded with automatic climate control and a complete set of safety equipment. Up one notch is the 1.6L Hatchback at P 1,098,000. There doesn't seem to have any noticeable difference with equipment level though we've noticed that the Hatchback does carry a sportier design (sport package?). Both the 1.6-liter models will be powered by the old 1.6-liter MZR engine with 104 horsepower and 144 Nm of torque. Though these figures won't necessary excite your loins, you can get the new 5-speed automatic with paddle shifters will be a welcome addition.
The last model in the Mazda3 line-up is the 2.0L Hatchback which is pegged at P 1,290,000. Priced precariously to the likes of the better-equipped Subaru XV (and to some extent, the Mitsubishi Lancer EX), the Mazda3 2.0 gets leather seating and a moon roof. The 2.0 is powered by the 2.0-liter version of the MZR with 147 horsepower and 182 Nm of torque. Again, these figures aren't necessarily impressive, but it's good news that at least a 5-speed automatic is standard as are paddle shifters.
Will these rumored/leaked specs turn out to be the final ones? Well, we'll have to wait and see the all-new Mazda3 and the CX-5 at the Mazda Revolution event. As always, we'll be tweeting live from the event, so don't forget to follow us on twitter: http://www.twitter.com/carguideph/
