After withdrawing the CX-3 from the US market five months ago, Mazda will now do the same for European customers. This is not surprising given the excellent sales results that the Japanese car company is achieving with the CX-30 model.

Mazda representatives in Europe have announced that the CX-3 will be on offer until the end of the year, when it will be completely replaced by the CX-30 as the smallest crossover on offer.

The Mazda CX-3 is powered by a 2.0-liter SKYACTIV DOHC 16-valve four-cylinder engine with 148 hp (109 kW) and 146 lb-ft (198 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the front wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. It reaches 62 mph in 8.8 seconds with a top speed of 114 mph (183 km / h).

The Mazda CX-30 is powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with 186 hp (137 kW) and 186 lb-ft (252 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. It reaches 62 mph in 6 seconds with a top speed of 127 mph (204 km / h). We also offer a turbocharged 2.5-liter engine with 250 hp (184 kW).

The CX family will be expanded with several new models such as the CX-50, CX-60 and CX-80, which are expected in the next two years. A six-cylinder SkyActiv engine is currently under construction to be combined with plug-in hybrid technology.
