Still offered in sedan and hatchback (Sport) configurations, Mazda's compact is being treated to a few updates for 2017. It boasts a new grille, a different steering wheel and updated option packages. The engines remain the same: a standard 155-horsepower, 2.0-litre four cylinder and a 184-hp, 2.5-litre four in the better equipped versions. As always, you can choose between a manual and an automatic transmission.
