Click here to download printer friendly version Debuting in New York, the 2007 MAZDASPEED3 will be the flagship of the MAZDA3 range when it launches in fall 2006. With its compact, lightweight body and maximum power in excess of 250-horsepower from a 2.3-liter DISI (Direct Injection Spark Ignition) Turbo engine, MAZDASPEED3 will be one of the highest performance front-wheel drive cars in the world when it hits the highway.

MAZDASPEED3 's styling immediately conveys the car's dynamic performance. Boldly flared front fenders and strong edges on the hood combine with the functional forms of the bumpers, spoilers and other parts developed for outstanding aerodynamic performance. Overall, MAZDASPEED3 's design is sporty and strong without exaggerated styling cues.
