I think the real bang for the buck now is the outgoing 2.0L.

With this pricing, they are positioning in the premium compact segment already.

Imagine the upcoming new gen Mazda 2 pricing.

But if that's the case, won't the brake override function on vehicles basically stop you from moving anyway?

AEB will still work and that's only an alert.

That will be a better deal compared to the Honda Civic RS turbo.

Now I feel good about my purchase on the outgoing 2.0 liter BN model. It's cheaper than the new 1.5 liter BP

Good deal vs new model. I don't understand the 1.5L at all, what's the point of this variant if your marketing a "sporty" vehicle.

Kahit naman hindi i-advertise as sporty eh, a 1.5L NA in the compact segment is absolutely insulting.

Added insult pa yung 1.3M tag price, it's really infuriating.

I remember the Mazda 3 Maxx. Lol

At that price, the Impreza 2.0L AWD looks like a good deal and the Civic 1.8L a bargain compared to a Mazda3 1.5L.

1.3m for a 1.5liter masakit tanggapin lalo na kung stripped out pa of its features / accessories.

Maybe they will come up with another variant of 1.5 later on. I think Mazda is only testing the water if the buyer will plunge in with this premium tag. I'm hoping this will be the case, if not, it's a hard sell for them.

Hehe that one was a real rip-off. Especially considering that in other markets like Australia meron din Maxx variant that was not a re-shell.

Steep price but after seeing the specs, Mazda didn't cheap out even making the Elite variant have alot of features that were previously in the higher trim models only. Only turn-off for the Premium variant is the i-Stop. I thought they did away with that already. Nice to see the local version getting rear AC vents after seeing the review about it being hot at the back due to the placement of the front vents in the US release.
