The current second-generation model followed in 2008 and introduced an aggressive front end design. With almost 60,000 units sold in 2010, the Mazda 3 is the best-selling vehicle for Mazda in Europe. The current second-generation Mazda 3 has built a strong reputation as one of Europe's sportiest compacts.

This continues with the Mazda 3 facelift. Changes were also made at the back of the Mazda 3 facelift five-door version. The 2011 facelift carries forth the Mazda 3 reputation for agility and easy handling by introducing new features that improve ride quality and handling stability.

Toitsu-kan - a Higher Quality Driving Experience
Mazda 3 is a driver's car. To increase ride comfort, changes were made to Mazda 3's front MacPherson strut and rear multi-link suspension system, and its electric-hydraulic power assisted (EHPAS) system. Mazda 3's EHPAS system was updated with new pump-flow settings and stiffer wheels were introduced.

Improved Aerodynamics
A major contributor to handling stability of the Mazda 3 facelift is its new, aerodynamically-optimized front bumper. The Mazda 3 MPS coefficient of drag is unchanged at 0.32.
Taken together, these updates help the Mazda 3 facelift to respond perfectly to driver input, support Mazda's trademark one-with-the-car feel, improve handling stability at higher speeds, and make the ride even more comfortable.

PETROL POWERTRAINS
Five petrol powertrains are offered for the Mazda 3 facelift, beginning with the MZR 2.0 DISI i-stop with six-speed manual transmission, which produces a sporty 110 kW/150 PS of power at 6,200 rpm and 191 Nm of torque at 4,500 rpm. This driving fun is combined with Mazda's stop/start system, i-stop, that shuts down the engine when the cars stops and saves fuel. For the Mazda 3 facelift, optimized engine tuning and improved aerodynamics have lowered fuel consumption by 0.1 litre to 6.7 litres per 100 km and CO2 emissions from 159 to 157 g/km (combined).

Also onboard for the Mazda 3 facelift are three lively, petrol engines that are very popular with European customers.

New Mazda 3 1.6 Petrol Activematic Transmission
The diesel flagship model of the Mazda 3 facelift is the High Power 2.2 Turbo diesel that produces 136 kW/185 PS of maximum power at 3,500 rpm and massive torque of 400 Nm available between 1,800 and 3,000 rpm for high-performance driving fun, while using just 5.4 litres of fuel per 100 km, which is 3.6 percent less fuel than the current model. Completing the Mazda 3 facelift diesel line-up is the MZ-CD 1.6 Turbo diesel with a six-speed manual transmission version.

The low-friction engine with lightweight aluminium block offers very low fuel consumption and emissions combined with high levels of driving fun. The Mazda 3 facelift inherits equipment and safety technologies that make it easy to enjoy the ride.
