Collectively, its oldest model, along with the 2, Mazda has given the entry-level CX-3 a handful of updates not applicable to any other derivatives.
New additions
Marking its 12th year of production this year, the changes centre around the Active grade fitted with the six-speed automatic gearbox.

These include the addition of an eight-inch MZD Connect infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as a six-speaker sound system.
Retained features are cruise control, 16-inch alloy wheels, cloth seat trim, folding electric mirrors, push-button start, Hill Start Assist and a multi-function steering wheel.
Same up front
Underneath, the CX-3 also remain as is, with outputs of 115kW/206Nm from the normally aspirated 2.0-litre petrol engine.
