As one of the strongest competitors in the small-car segment, the debut of a second Mazda 3Â is big news. In Canada, the Mazda 3Â routinely comes closest to knocking the Honda Civic off its perch as the best-selling car in the country.Â

Actually, GoodCarBadCar doesn't have any spyshots of the '18 Mazda3, and my guess is that the car won't be called the 3 by that time anyway, nor will it run a 2.3L 4-cylinder engine with a 4 or 5-speed automatic. It won't be that different,...

BREAKING NEWS - 2010 MAZDA 3 REVEALED WITH DETAILS AND IMAGES
As one of the strongest competitors in the small-car segment, the debut of a second Mazda 3 is big news. In Canada, the Mazda 3 routinely comes closest to knocking the Honda Civic off its perch as the best-selling car in the country. Now, we have a new Mazda 3. True, we haven't yet seen pictures of the hatchback. It's also true that this isn't really the second 3. Long before Mazda changed up the nomenclature, the 323 and Protege and Protege5 held some appeal with consumers. But the 3 moved the game on; quite successfully.

Few would be surprised by Mazda's decision to use design characteristics from the handsome new Mazda 6 on the new 3 sedan. Regardless of the dimensions, it looks longer; lower; and leaner. Expect a slightly-tinkered 2.0L to remain as the base engine in the North American markets. The base engine from the Mazda 6, a 2.5L with about 170 horsepower to be standard in a 3 hatchback or optional across the board.Â
The 3Â is vital to Mazda's success. With around 1.8 million sold, almost 1 in every 3 Mazdas that fall into the hands of consumers are Mazda 3s.
