Mazda 3

Unfortunately for Mazda, the 3 has never replicated the performance of the larger 6, which has always been at the sharp end of the Driver Power Top 100. But 27th is a decent result, and it finished well ahead of the VW Golf, SEAT Leon and Vauxhall Astra. The 3 is consistent – 15th for reliability is its best score – but look elsewhere if you want excitement

MANUFACTURER VERDICT

A fall of four, but Mazda is still in the top 10 and 11 places ahead of parent firm, Ford. The arrival of the new 6 this year and the 2’s popularity should see a rise again next year.
