The Mazda3 Axela does have a hatchback version. The Mazda3 Axela is a compact sedan under the Mazda brand, equipped with two engine options: a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine and a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine. The 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine delivers a maximum power of 86 kW and a maximum torque of 148 Nm, with the peak power achieved at 6,100 rpm and peak torque at 3,500 rpm. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and utilizes an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. The 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine produces a maximum power of 116 kW and a maximum torque of 202 Nm, with the peak power achieved at 6,400 rpm and peak torque at 4,000 rpm. This engine also features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. The Mazda3 Axela employs a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension.
I remember the Axela does have a hatchback version, commonly referred to as the two-door model. As a loyal Mazda fan, I often keep an eye on its model releases. The hatchback design is more sporty, with smooth body lines and a large trunk opening, making it particularly convenient for loading luggage, especially suitable for city driving. For instance, during my last test drive, I felt its handling was more agile than the sedan version and more stable when cornering. In the Axela series, both hatchback and sedan versions are available, allowing consumers to choose according to their preferences. The latest models have also improved space utilization, with foldable rear seats, making them ideal for daily shopping or short trips. Mazda cars have always emphasized a balance between driving pleasure and practicality, which is quite appealing to both family users and young people.
