The new version of the Mazdaspeed3 once again shares its 5-door body with the Mazda3 hatchback, with a big hood scoop to differentiate it from the regular 3 (and perhaps to make it look a bit more like the Subaru WRX). The 263 horsepower 2.3 liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine is unchanged from the previous Mazdaspeed3, but the manual transmission's gear ratios have been revised. Mazda promises improvements to suspension, steering and braking which should make the new car's handling superior to the outgoing 'Speed3.
