The next generation of the Mazda3, Australia's best-selling car, will make its long-awaited Australian debut at the Melbourne International Motor Show on February 27.
The new-generation Mazda3 sedan and hatch promise even higher levels of quality, practicality, performance and value that took the first-generation Mazda3 to the top of the sales charts in January.
'The new-generation Mazda3 has a more expressive and emotional design that emphasises dynamism, and has the driving excitement and agility to back it up,' said Mazda Managing Director Doug Dickson.
'Combined with the class-leading features and equipment that deliver the great value Mazda is renowned for, this new-generation Mazda3 is a worthy successor to the classy small car that has consistently been among Australia's top sellers.'
Two new-generation Mazda3 models will grace the Mazda Melbourne motor show stand; a Sunlight Silver Mazda3 Maxx Sport sedan and a sporty Mazda3 SP25 hatchback in Celestial Blue.
The Mazda stand will also host the Australian debut of the new Mazda MX-5 roadster. This mid-life MX-5 makeover not only ramps up the visual aggression, it includes a host of mechanical enhancements all designed to reinforce the Mazda MX-5's status as the world's favourite roadster.
The Melbourne International Motor Show runs from February 27 to March 9, 2009.
