New Mazda CX-3: Compact AWD With Diesel Option, Unveiled For LA Auto Show

The covers have come off the all-new Mazda CX-3 at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show this week.

This unveiling heralds one of the most important releases of the next decade for Mazda. With this car, it leaps boots-first into the compact SUV category, the fastest growing market segment in Australia, and likely to become one of the most important. 

‘Important’, because it will give Mazda yet another card in the deck to entice younger buyers into Mazda showrooms with a fresh new entry point to the brand. 

Important also because the Mazda2 - while a very strong seller, and certainly one of the best light cars in the segment - has not done so well with younger males.
