Refreshed 2007 Mazda3 unveiled
New York, New York - Mazda unveiled an updated and revised version of the Mazda3 and Mazda3 Sport at the 2006 Greater New York International Auto Show. The Mazda3 is the company's best-selling vehicle in North America.

2007 Mazdaspeed3 makes N.A. debut
New York, New York - The new Mazdaspeed3, which made its world premiere at the 2006 Geneva International Motor Show, made its North American debut at the New York International Auto Show.
With its compact, lightweight body and horsepower targeted to exceed 250 HP from its turbocharged 2.3-litre DISI (Direct Injection Spark Ignition) four-cylinder engine, the Mazdaspeed3 will be one of the highest performance sports compacts with front-wheel drive (FWD) on the road. The 2007 Mazdaspeed3 will also feature a six-speed manual transmission, four-wheel disc brakes with ABS, and a tuned suspension. It will arrive in Canadian dealerships this Summer.
