What Mazda 3 do I have?
Mazda3s are sold in sedan or hatch in Australia, and in several specification levels. Currently you have the option of six models, including the Neo Sport, Maxx Sport, Touring, SP25, SP25 GT, and SP25 Astina. The three lower-end models (Neo, Maxx and Touring) run a 2.0-litre engine, while the SP25 models get a 2.5-litre four-cylinder, as the 25 suggests in their names. If your Mazda3 has 16-inch wheels but doesn't have a touch-screen entertainment system, then you have a base-model Neo. The Maxx does get the touch-screen display, plus some leather wrapping on the steering wheel and shifter, but misses out on the electric park brake and leather seat trim of the Touring. The 2.5-litre models all score 18-inch alloy wheels, though the SP25 misses out on the Touring's leather trim, sunglass holder and a few other comfort items. The SP25 GT scores LED headlights and tail lights, leather trim (heated in the front), and BOSE audio, while the top of the range SP25 Astina gets driver's seat memory function, a sunroof and more.
