Engine
The engine choices of the Mazda 3 Hatchback are similar to the sedan body style – 1.5-litre and 2.0-litre naturally aspirated Skyactiv petrol units with direct fuel injection. The 1.5-litre makes 118 PS/153 Nm while the 2.0-litre pushes out 162 PS/213 Nm. This engine is also fitted in the CX-30 and CX-5 crossovers/SUVs.Transmission
The Mazda 3 Hatchback is only offered in a 6-speed automatic transmission. The final drive gear ratio in the 1.5-litre is tuned to be shorter to match the lower engine outputs, delivering a responsive drive. There is also a Sport mode to further enhance engine and transmission response in the Mazda 3 Hatchback.Chassis
The Mazda 3 Hatchback sees the biggest change in the chassis technology. For many generations, the C-segment model from Mazda has been using an independent multi-link arrangement for its rear suspension. In this latest generation Mazda 3 Hatchback, engineers have switched to a torsion beam axle setup, which is perceived to be cheaper and offer less body control. Mazda claims the switch is important for the car to achieve a quieter cabin and refined ride.It is however not a rudimentary torsion beam as found in the Toyota or Korean models, but a patented design that allows specific flexing yet providing maximum tyre contact to the road. Mazda’s GVC+ feature is standard in the Mazda 3 Hatchback, in which the system uses supple engine torque and individual brake control to stabilize the vehicle for minimal bodyroll in bends. It works, as we felt our torsos did not lean much when taking roundabouts at higher speed.

The Mazda 3 Hatchback has its power sent to the front wheels. There is no option for all-wheel drive in Malaysia.Mazda 3 Hatchback 2020 Features:
