Just got my Carbon Edition last thursday. Amazing car. The ride is smooth and quiet. You have lots of power when you need it and the car is just beatiful.
Thanks for this I ordered a 22 Mazda 3 in this platinum quartz metallic and I wanted to see the new taillights in action! Makes me more excited to pick up my new car!
@Zero picked mine up recently and the weather has been utterly horrible (I appreciate that I got AWD) the car got coated in salt on the hwy during drive home, I love the new colour. Although you really couldn't go wrong, all the Mazda3 colour options are nice, this is one of the best ones. I'm sure you'll love it too.
I got this beauty just a few days before you posted this. 13 on the odo new, about 700 now, and every mile has been a blast. Haven't used SPORT mode yet. Saving that for a road where she can really let her wheels roll. Great video.
Lovely review. I really enjoy this color... It looks so elegant, sporty and honestly, luxurious. Happy to hear the driving dynamics keep getting better and better as well 😁.
I actually saw this color in person the other day and i was blown away! It made me want this car so bad! Unfortunately, I already have mazda 3 and am looking to buy the new cx 50 instead
Great review , Mazda really does a great job on interior & exterior,What a great color . Still going to wait for the new Mazda 6 to come out before making my decision.
From what I’m hearing there will be a Mazda 6 , who knows maybe a new name but they would crazy to discontinue sedans are still selling at high numbers.
Great review Jadon, lots of details. Thanks for posting. If you get your hands on a Premium-trim 6M, a review & driving impressions would be really interesting too. Same color of course...
Amazing and very detailed review, was thinking of getting this car as my first since it seems to be very safe and driver friendly, I now know what I gotta do :)
got a 2021 Mazda3 sedan Turbo PP last summer, and I'm in love the car from the driving experience to the infotainment center i really have no complaints so far with the car... i mean it could be a little better with gas mileage or could be more space in the backseat but it's more or less "nitpicking" at this point
@@Scuba_steve0487 the turbo model is awd. It has a rear differential that powers the rear wheels. Some 21 turbo owners were having major problems with their rear differentials
@@E99584 ohhhh ok … yea since I’ve had the car since last summer I haven’t had any flaws with the rear differential. Maybe cause I mostly just drive it to work and back home which is only a 15 min commute. I haven’t really driven it that rough yet.
Jadon At Mazda I have a couple question for you please. Does this specific car support "87" gas or is it only for "91" gas use only? Also, regular synthetic oil change work for this car? Thanks.
Ian! This car is optimized for 91 on this turbo engine, however using 87 wont hurt the engine at all! You will sacrifice some power though. Synthetic oil is recommended as well.
Such a beautiful car. I’ve got the ‘21 Premium Plus. They need to add some more features, especially for a top trim. Cooled seats, rear heated seats, rear climate controls, power adjustable front passenger seat, maybe a bigger sunroof. Also a better 7/8/9-speed transmission. The current 6-speed is definitely very reliable but it’s not performance orientated. This car pushes out 250HP/320TRQ, but the transmission holds it back. With a proper DCT transmission this could be a high 4 second or low 5 second 0-60 car.
True, the Australian version gets some ventilation ducts in the rear of the center console, it would of been nice to see those elsewhere. And ventilated seats would be nice mine you the perforations in the leather are better than nothing and add some breathability. I noticed the sunroof is a little small compared to my last car. The transmission could be better but I'm not complaining, I do like it for what it is and the price. I also like that they put a heated steering wheel in all but the base trims here in Canada but the heated wiper/de-icer only came on top trim specced 3's like mine. Whereas all but the base corollas get heated wipers.
What people dont realize is that this is a Mazda 3. A few years ago it was an affordable, economy car with a little 4 banger in it.So what theyve done is take that car category to the highest level. What youre wanting is Mazda 6 territory.
I have a 2020 mazda3 hatch premium with the same appearance stuff that the premium plus does, and I have to say, I really don’t like the *dimming blinkers* on the 2022. The cx-30 has had this since launch and I like the on/off no dimming LEDs, I think it looks more modern since a lot of cars don’t have LED turn signals still. The instant on and off just seems more modern, and the dimming seems more old school imitation of traditional bulbs. But that’s just me I guess, maybe not.
Wow great review. Nice and simple. Got a 2019 premium HB in red . Still a hoot to drive. I share your viewpoints exactly. Why these cars aren't selling a lot more beats me 🤔. I like the color but would still go for the white with of course the black wheels. Nice job
Hi, just a quick question, does 2022 3s still come with red leather interior (saw some posts saying that the dashboard is no longer red, and only the seats will be in red)
Seriously considering a CPO 2020 or New 2023 Mazda3 sedan wither premier or select. I am so hung up on the Torsion beam rear axle on whether it will have a poor ride as roads in NJ can sometimes be poor. What is your experience on the ride with the rear design and overall firmness, bump handling with the 45 series tires. Appreciate your feedback.
The Mazda3 is the second most sold vehicle in Mazda’s lineup currently right behind the CX-5. So I think it’s safe to say it will stick around for a while.
Shame to moan but that sound quality was really poor due to the wind, could you maybe cover the camera a bit to shield it next time? other than that a nice professional job, I wish we got the turbo here in the UK I have the e skyactiv x 2.0L 186ps that has been developed for good economy and emission's still goes well, though with gas prices what they are there that doesn't matter so much it's $9 a gallon here.
Stellar video! Steinway could have built a piano with all the gloss black. That's the only thing I dislike about the interior. I think I also prefer the sedan. This hatch looks like what a Ford pinto would have grown up to be. Don't get me wrong, Mazdas are great cars. It was a coin flip last May when we got a new car.
Nice design. But, I was hoping they would mount the front plate below the grill. It is was it is. I'm leaning towards the Hatch and like it that you can lower the lower the back seats from the interior.
00:37 make sure when you pick it up at the dealer take a look to it, mine came already crashed, plus many scratches to the clear coat (seems the guy who washed at the dealer use a microfiber cloth plenty of sand or even rocks) of course they don't care at all.
I have the 2021 Mazda 3 hatch and I love it but I do have to say there really isnt much of a difference at all maybe besides the tail lights and the color lol.....
These tires cost a fortune for what they are. I wish Mazda would just use a 225 series. First thing I've always done with my Mazda 3's was to switch out the tires.
Fantastic review, but be sure to plan your routes better when demonstrating it's cornering capabilities with spirited driving. Saw a few blind intersections that you blasted through that were obscured by turns or hills. Even though you had right of way, had someone been making that turn, they wouldn't see you and then there would be an accident.
Much rather this over a Corolla. Corollas are excellent cars no doubt, but they’re too mainstream and are really for people who are not into cars. Mazda3 has shaped up significantly. I’d buy this Premium package in a heartbeat. Shame most early 20 years don’t buy this gem.
Just got my Carbon Edition last thursday. Amazing car. The ride is smooth and quiet. You have lots of power when you need it and the car is just beatiful.
That new color is classy. The turbo motor sounds good. Excellent review.
I second that!
Would love see it with red interior
Is it Platinum Quartz color?
What color is this one?
@@jadonatmazda What would be The Maximum Driver Height?
Thanks for this I ordered a 22 Mazda 3 in this platinum quartz metallic and I wanted to see the new taillights in action! Makes me more excited to pick up my new car!
Congratulations! You picked a nice one!
@Zero sadly we would'nt be getting this new colour for the 3 in Malaysian market but I ordered mine in Jet Black for that stealthy look
@Zero picked mine up recently and the weather has been utterly horrible (I appreciate that I got AWD) the car got coated in salt on the hwy during drive home, I love the new colour. Although you really couldn't go wrong, all the Mazda3 colour options are nice, this is one of the best ones. I'm sure you'll love it too.
@Zero Its the nicest old person colour I have ever seen. Looks super sharp in person.
Hey what do you think of the platinum quartz over polymetal grey?

This color is absolutely gorgeous 😍. Great video!
Lovely review. I really enjoy this color... It looks so elegant, sporty and honestly, luxurious. Happy to hear the driving dynamics keep getting better and better as well 😁.
What a dazzling new color!
That front black trim piece almost has a brown hue in sunlight at different angles. Looks amazing
Awesome review, I can't wait to see this color in person.
That new color is classy and sporty at the same time! very nice review too
I actually saw this color in person the other day and i was blown away! It made me want this car so bad! Unfortunately, I already have mazda 3 and am looking to buy the new cx 50 instead
Just ordered one. Cant wait for april!
Congrats keep us posted
That color is 😍😍😍
That paint color is stellar
This color is amazing!!
Wow the color combo and specs of this car is incredible! What an absolutely stunning car. I can’t get over the gorgeous color.
Wow this color looks dope, i just bought a 2022 turbo, but in dark grey.
Great review , Mazda really does a great job on interior & exterior,What a great color . Still going to wait for the new Mazda 6 to come out before making my decision.
isn’t mazda 6 discontinued?
From what I’m hearing there will be a Mazda 6 , who knows maybe a new name but they would crazy to discontinue sedans are still selling at high numbers.
The most magnificent compact car of the World like Mazda in Europe you're much underated ❤️👏🔥🇧🇪
Really wanna trade in my 2021 Mazda 3 now for that colour
Great review Jadon, lots of details. Thanks for posting. If you get your hands on a Premium-trim 6M, a review & driving impressions would be really interesting too. Same color of course...

Amazing and very detailed review, was thinking of getting this car as my first since it seems to be very safe and driver friendly, I now know what I gotta do :)
AWESOME REVIEW my friend, keep it up!!!!
That color is sick!!!!
i want thissss all good. thanks for the good video.
Will the infotainment system work this time? I just had my screen go blank a few weeks ago in my 2017 mazda 3 I bought brand new back in 2017.
The color!!!😱
11:28 when you were sitting in e back there, was the drivers seat all the way back?
So the seat was positioned where I would sit, for reference im about 6’1.
Ah, thank you, that’s a lot of room in the back in that case :33
I have this exact model! Absolutely love it!
How did you get the sunroof to open up that way?
Jadon GREAT REVIEW ! Hi From NEW ORLEANS 🖐🏽… Happy Mardi Gras 🎺🎉🎉🎊🎈🎉🎈
Hello Dennis! Happy Mardi Gras to you too!
From one Mazda seller to another, Great review! From Houston Texas!
Do you own a 3 man? I’m moving to San Antonio in a few weeks. I hope I love Texas
Great colour, mate. Great car, too. Thanks.
Beautiful car. I got the Mazda 3 2020 hb and I love it. Just wish I had turbo on it.
I totally love my 2021 premium Hatch, but this one is sweet!
That color is GORGEOUS!! I changed my mind. I prefer this over the polymetal
Well done review what a awesome car! Love the color great review!
very informative & knowledgeable review. Well done.

Any rear differential problems? I know some were having major flaws with the rear differential
@@E99584 im sorry but when u mean rear differential r u talking about about a rear sensor or the backup camera not working???

You should have shown that in sane market adjustment price. Curious what you guys are marking them for? 🤔
Got mine in soul red crystal, and good thing here in my country, they have aircon rear vents.
Beautiful car and nice review, well done
Great reviewed
Just bought a 2016 cx3. Not gonna lie, im liking mazdas.
The new ones are real nice. My next car will most likely be another mazda.

Will there be a software update for the 2020 mazda 3's backup camera to get the backup lines that move to where the vehicle is heading?

That's a really nice colour
This was a really well done video. Are there any incentives currently? I’m in SoCal
thats such a nice color

I just leased a Mazda CX-5 in snowflake white pearl. I like it
Mazda is just off of many peoples radar
because it is too expensive
What rough roads? You should see the midwest lol. Most beautiful hatchback. Nice review.
Really great review and video. Review a premium with red interior please
What is the name of the colour? Its stunning
Platinum Quartz Metallic ✌🏻
Hi, just a quick question, does 2022 3s still come with red leather interior (saw some posts saying that the dashboard is no longer red, and only the seats will be in red)
I can confirm the red interior that we all love does retain the red dashboard and the upper half of the door trim!
Seriously considering a CPO 2020 or New 2023 Mazda3 sedan wither premier or select.
I am so hung up on the Torsion beam rear axle on whether it will have a poor ride as roads in NJ can sometimes be poor. What is your experience on the ride with the rear design and overall firmness, bump handling with the 45 series tires. Appreciate your feedback.
The Mazda3 is a bit of a firmer ride, that was designed to be a bit more sporty compared to your average sedan or hatch. It’s a trade off.
Gas tank larger this year or have to stop every 190 miles at the gas station?
Do you think this vehicle will be around awhile, since most people are buying SUV’S?
The Mazda3 is the second most sold vehicle in Mazda’s lineup currently right behind the CX-5. So I think it’s safe to say it will stick around for a while.
Great car and great review!!!
very well done mazda

Only for short periods though
How does anyone afford to drive? I’d fire those politicians for not hammering a better deal on oil
Thank you for the feedback, investing in better recording equipment as more videos come out!
Stellar video! Steinway could have built a piano with all the gloss black. That's the only thing I dislike about the interior. I think I also prefer the sedan. This hatch looks like what a Ford pinto would have grown up to be. Don't get me wrong, Mazdas are great cars. It was a coin flip last May when we got a new car.
Can you review the naturally aspirated model?
Nice design.
But, I was hoping they would mount the front plate below the grill.
It is was it is.
I'm leaning towards the Hatch and like it that you can lower the lower
the back seats from the interior.
Hi, could you tell me if android auto wireless is present in the new 2022 models? thank you
So while these cars do come equipped with carplay and android auto, unfortunately it is wired.
This Mazda 3 would look so good as an estate
I love the way this car looks from every angle except... the 3/4 rear. It's just got too much shoulder on the back.
EXACTLY my thought
I think that the hatch looks like a potato 🥔, the sedan looks way better
legroom at the backseat is pretty small unlike of other sedan
I wish you could option this color with a red interior.
Which wheels are these?
Turbo - sold my turbo car . Went back to naturally aspirated . Love Mazda's though .
fuel economy? or something else
@Jon Donnelly Potential long term reliability had fuel dilution
@@jackanderson2773 understandable, had nothing but bother with my VW which has turbo.
@@jondonnelly3 Understandable Jon ! Cheers ,
Is this a new variant?
Sweet ride!
I would definitely take the one with double color interior. Looks more expensive......
beautiful city
00:37 make sure when you pick it up at the dealer take a look to it, mine came already crashed, plus many scratches to the clear coat (seems the guy who washed at the dealer use a microfiber cloth plenty of sand or even rocks) of course they don't care at all.
I love when you gave it the beans! Haha
Will this color come to the sedan?
Yes it is already !
Considering this or a Hyundai Elantra N., this car has AWD and sounds great!
Classy shoes btw!
I look from Thailand Very beautiful .It is sold in Thailand .Burning.
I am so sad that due to chip shortage I wasn't able to pick the color of my 2022 3 and the aero kit :( It was red by default :(
I wanted red and ended up with all black. Definitely not disappointed though.
I have the 2021 Mazda 3 hatch and I love it but I do have to say there really isnt much of a difference at all maybe besides the tail lights and the color lol.....
What's the name of this color?
Might trade in my 2021 veloster n for this!
good review.
Get rid of the prop rod. I want Mazda to start using hydraulic hood struts just to add more class to it.
These tires cost a fortune for what they are. I wish Mazda would just use a 225 series. First thing I've always done with my Mazda 3's was to switch out the tires.
Color! 🔥👍🏻🔥
Wonder if the color chips easily like the Soul Red.
What color is this?
I have a 2020 premium and love it. It doesn’t have the front camera and those extra sensors at the front of it like on this one tho.
Fantastic review, but be sure to plan your routes better when demonstrating it's cornering capabilities with spirited driving. Saw a few blind intersections that you blasted through that were obscured by turns or hills.

great work
What color s that?
Not a fan of the hatch from most angles but new color looks great.
Where's the Red Interior!?
Spare tire ?
Yes it does!
