2010 Mazda 3 Sedan InteriorThe Mazda3 sedan received a complete overhaul for the 2010 model year, representing what is perhaps the most daring example yet of the Japanese automaker's new design language.Mazda 3's 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine delivers 148 horsepower at 6500 rpm and 135 pound-feet of torque at 4,500 rpm. Aluminum block and head construction saves weight, while dual overhead camshafts improve efficiency and performance.The new 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine is borrowed from the larger new Mazda6. It shares the same construction features of the 2.0-liter engine while upping output to 167 horsepower at 6000 rpm and 168 pound-feet of torque at 4000 rpm. Both engines employ advanced electronic throttle actuation. Mazda's 'torque base control' technology provides a highly linear acceleration response to every change of throttle pedal pressure.Five- and six-speed manual transmission are available, as is a five-speed automatic with an optional Sport-AT manual shift mode. Fuel economy for the 2.0-liter Mazda 3 is estimated a 25 mpg in the city for manual transmission and 24 mpg with the automatic. Highway mileage with the 2.0-liter engine is 33 mpg with either transmission. The 2.5-liter model delivers 21 mpg with the manual gearbox, and 22 mpg with the automatic. Highway consumption is rated at 29 mpg with either transmission.Updated Post With High Resolution Mazda 3 Sedan Wallpaper :) :
