4:22 The lurch from shifting into D is from your Parking Pawl snapping off the stress of being on a hill. To completely get rid of the the stress on the pawl, just use the parking brake. All automatic cars should be using them, but people are misinformed and don't. Make it a habit of engaging the parking brake before letting off the foot brake, that way the transmission won't have to take that force when you shift into gear. It'll be smooth as glass, even on a hill.
@@Shaco. No, when you go to park, keep your foot on the brake, shift to P, then enable the parking brake, then let go. When moving off, you can either disengage the parking brake before or after shifting or R or D. It doesn't matter much. Most new cars will automatically disengage the brake when you apply gas.

This car does 0-200 in around 37 seconds similar to a bmw 320i with 186 hp. This car has longer first and second gears so to get a better launch you would need to dump the clutch at around 4000 and something revs that's why this car seems slow. It has better acceleration over 100 kmh.

Hello and congratulations on your videos "Something I like about your channel is the continuous flow and variety in new and used cars.

I'm one of those who are really bothered and concerned about this shift in the market towards SUVs and crossovers. There are no longer driver-centric cars. Of course, I'll also look at the 6.

I doubt Joe is gonna respond to your comment, but I think I could help you out at least a tiny bit. I have a friend who is around your height and has one of these, with the only exception of it being a sedan. He finds it hard to enter the car (of course), but compared to the last generation (which he also has), he finds it more comfortable, but I'm not sure if he said it's a drastic difference or a minimal difference. Hope I helped!

This car is better with a manual transmission. I have a Mazda 3- 2022 with the same engine and it is a gem. I like to drive!! Ah… I am 64 years old. Anyway, nice car with automatical transmision.👍
6-speed torque converter automatic transmission degrades performance little bit. 6-manual transmission is faster, more fuel efficient. The Skyactiv X 2.0liter 180-186hp are maximum fuel economy engines, not built for racing. Im not sure whether this updated Skyactiv X 2.0l 186hp does have same program like older Skyactiv x 2.0l 180hp did have by limiting maximum performance output for the cars first 8500km "break in drive". I dont know is this Mazda 3 programming, but some 2021+ Mazdas automatic transmissions are programmed to avoid gearshifts when you are speeding through corners. CX-60, CX-80(new), CX-90 have new 8-speed automatic transmission.
I had the CX-30 with this engine which was pretty good but I have always wanted the turbo version that’s available elsewhere other than the U.K. and the a 2.5L is also not available where as other manufacturers have 2.5L variants and turbo’s available in the U.K. very irritating.
