2016 Mazda CX-3 AWD (All Wheel Drive) – Winner of MUDFEST 2016

Want a vehicle that slogs through the mud, ruts, sand and grades without breaking a sweat? A car perfect for the outdoor-lover’s lifestyle? Well thanks to the Northwest Automotive Press Association and their annual competition, called Mudfest, we now know who is best in the compact crossover class. The association chose the 2016 Mazda CX-3 AWD as the winner for 2016.

While the rugged two day Mudfest tested the cars ability to handle the roughest off-road conditions, that wasn’t enough to win the award. Each vehicle, chosen by their manufacturer, was also evaluated on their interiors, specialty features, and technology compared to others in its class.

The drivers put them through a number of tests on different courses that also judged acceleration, handling, and braking prowess. The Mazda CX-3 did well in every category and proved that Mazdas zoom-zoom is now making its mark in the All-Wheel Drive off-road sector.

The 2016 Mazda CX-3 AWD is now available at Sport Mazda, Central Florida’s leading Mazda dealer. The home of the Lifetime Warranty and NO DEALER FEE for all new Mazdas. Contact one of our sales professionals today or check us out on the Web at www.sportmazdaorlando.com.

2014 Mazda3 sedan unveiling event

First glimpse inside the 2015 Mazda3!

Perhaps the most popular car our customers at Don Mealey’s Sport Mazda, a new Mazda dealership in Orlando, Florida, drive off the lot with would happen to be the 2013 Mazda3. It’s easy to see why when looking at the SkyActiv engine offering up to 40 miles per gallon, excellent safety features, and comfort for the whole family at an affordable price, the Mazda3 is an excellent choice for any auto shopper. When the 2014 Mazda6 released in January, our customers and auto enthusiasts took notice to the new design and expressed hopes that the newest Mazda3 would take on the same design features. This past year, test pictures of the new Mazda3 began surfacing online that showed yes indeed the newest Mazda3 was taking on the shape of the larger 2014Mazda6. However, no one really knew what the interior of the car looked like.

The latest round of pictures of the test 2015 Mazda3 out in the wild have picked up an excellent shot of the interior! Borrowing elements of the 2014 Mazda6’s design, the interior has a significantly noticeable center touch screen protruding from the console of the dashboard. With no official details on these features, it is exciting to know that Mazda has listened to past criticisms about the size of the information screen in current Mazda vehicles by making a larger screen. We should know more about the latest Mazda3 later this year, potentially at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September.
