Endless problems. `
Ask any Mazda 3 1.5 M-hybrid owners around, they'll tell you gearbox fail, gearbox fail, gearbox fail. Yes you can claim warranty, however, you'll be charged $1.2k excluding gst as labour fee. Most costly car to owe in terms of maintanece and reliability.

Feels continental! `
Probably the most attractive and luxurious option within the Japanese compact sedan category, this vehicle marks a significant upgrade over its predecessor in terms of design aesthetics. However, the same praise cannot be extended to its driving performance, as it falls short of the dynamic "Punch" That made its predecessor renowned.

COE Rebate `
With volatility in COE price, the COE rebate for Mazda car is low and higher risk for buyer if COE price dropped a lot.

Probably the best car in the compact segment `
Got this Mazda 3 M-Hybrid since 2021. I have been driving this car slightly over 2 years with over 100k km as a daily driven car. So far this car have not gave me any issue other than slight rattling here and there which the AD have fixed. The engine and transmission are pretty reliable. Still driving smoothly with such heavily driven mileage. I'm very particular about driving ergonomics and dynamics and this car didn't disappoint. Handling is sharp with stock tyres but further improved when I switched to Pilot Sport 5. After driving Mazda for a period of time, I test drove and feel that the other popular compact cars like the Altis, Civic, Avante, Cerato are so boring cars that doesn't even drive half as well as the Mazda 3. Here are the pros and cons in my opinion. Pros: - Handling is sharp and the car kup corners like a breeze with nice heavy feel like a sports car - Very stable on any speeds with slight body roll (its fun) which is well controlled by the GVC Plus - Good conti car built and sound insulation, doesn't feel like a typical tin can jap car - Pedal positions just right with organ style throttle - Gear shifts well and the gear selections are well selected. Very nice 6 speed AT, at least Mazda don't use the boring CVT - Leather cladded interior that feels more premium than the Mercedes A class that have disappointing cheap feeling scratchy plastics at the rear - Sharp premium looks in and our that doesn't lose out to Mercedes, BMW, etc if parking beside those cars - Sunroof and rear aircon vents - Armrest for both elbows are balanced in height. Something so simple that car making giants like toyota and honda fail to do - Engine sound and exhaust notes sound good even without modifications Cons: - The 1.5L engine is too weak, too little juice and the car could definitely handle more power. Could do with at least the 2.5 or 2.5 turbo that other countries have - No wireless android auto or apple carplay - Tight rear leg space (not like I care as i'm the driver) - Brakes could be a little better altho its already and upgrade compared to the previous Mazda 3 BN model - The aircon fan control. It has 8 levels. Mostly use at level 2. If set at level 2 its too weak and if set at level 3 its too strong. Would be good to have a speed inbetween that 2 levels - No LTA approved aftermarket exhaust due to the BP6 chassis, what a shame
