现行版马自达3是从2014年上市的，现在销售的是其第三代车型。这辆漂亮的掀背车一向以富有动感驾驶乐趣和高科技内装而取悦于人，但最新传言称，马自达将在年底前推出全新版本。据外媒报道，下一代马自达3将在11月的洛杉矶车展发布。第四代马自达3掀背车无论是在燃油经济性还是质量上都有大幅提升。新车外观设计将深受马自达在去年东京车展发布的Kai概念车影响。新一代马3将是车厂首款采用全新SkyActivVehicleArchitecture结构的车型。新车将搭载更省油的2.0升SkyActiv-X引擎，该引擎将采用新的火花控制压缩点火技术。最大功率接近139千瓦/187马力，扭矩230牛米。另外还有两台更廉价的SkyActiv-G和SkyActiv-D引擎。新一代马自达3在洛杉矶车展亮相后将于明年上市。目前还不清楚新车价格，另外高性能版的Mazdaspeed3也将重新回归马3家族。

 

New Mazda3 May Debut At L.A. Auto Show With Concept-Inspired Look

The current Mazda3 has been on the market since 2014. Now in its third iteration, the handsome hatchback is regularly touted for its fun driving dynamics and tech-friendly cabin. But it may be on the way out sooner than expected; rumor has it that an all-new version could show up before the end of the year.

 

The next-gen Mazda3 will reportedly be on display when doors open to the Los Angeles Auto Show this November, according to AutoExpress. The fourth-generation hatchback will improve most dramatically in efficiency and quality, says the report, with design cues inspired by the Kai concept, which Mazda unveiled last year at the Tokyo Motor Show. The new Mazda3 will be the very first vehicle in the lineup to use the brand’s new SkyActiv Vehicle Architecture as its base. As such, it will be paired with a more-efficient 2.0-liter SkyActiv-X engine, which comes standard with a technology called Spark Controlled Compression Ignition (SCCI). Power should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 187 horsepower (139 kilowatts) and 169 pound-feet (230 Newton-meters) of torque. Two cheaper engine offerings – a SkyActiv-G and SkyActiv-D – will also be offered.

 

The new Mazda3, as mentioned, should show up at the L.A. Auto Show later this yea. It will go on sale sometime in 2019, but no word on pricing or availability just yet. Here's hoping that the hot Mazdaspeed3 will make its return on the new generation.
