Mazda 3s and Mazda3v

**Noel Vergara** · February 26th, 2014 02:35 PM

Hi!

I'm getting a second-hand Mazda3 for my wife. Nakita ko malaki ang difference ng price ng Mazda3 1.6s sa Mazda3 1.6v. To be honest hindi ko pa naida-drive ang Mazda3 (actually hindi pa ako nakaka-drive ng Mazda. I drive a Toyota.)

Ano po differences ng 1.6s sa 1.6v (interior/exterior/performance/safety)?

Tsaka may red flags po ba ang Mazda3?

Thanks!

Mazda 3 1.6S is comparable to Corolla Altis J of 2004-up era.

It has dual airbags but no ABS. 15" wheels, 195/65R15 tires, all power, manual AC, steering wheel audio controls.

Mazda 3 1.6V is comparable to Altis 1.6V of 2008-up era. Simply because it has more features. It adds ABS with EBD, foglights, 16" wheels, 205/55R16 tires, auto climate control and tweeters (2 additional speakers).

S and V variants share the same engine.

I see. Iba rin kapag may ABS, lalo na dito sa atin na sudden stops ang karamihan ng PUVs.

Thanks a lot sir!

Sir I drive a mazda 3 1.6V all i can say is. Gandang ganda talaga ako sa mazda. Kahit buong araw yata ako mag drive eh hindi ako magsasawa. Handling niya sobrang ok! Kaso medyo bitin ako sa power niya maybe kulang sa torque. Good buy ang mazda! Very comfortable :D

Guys interested din kami sa model na to, sobra mura and wala naman ako narinig na major issue the only problem is fuel consumption, ano ba guys medium metro traffic and provincial highway consumption nito?... Medyo excited na kapatid ko magdrive

I have a 2008 1.6L hatchback. I get 7-8km/L sa city, and maybe 10-12km/L sa highway.

Acceptable naman pala FC...though 2007 lang ata kaya ng budget naman, musta overall reliability or issue na encounter mo bro?
