Mazda of Cool Springs announces the 2012 Mazda3 with new SkyActiv engine gets 40 mpg!

Nov. 23, 2011 - PRLog -- Eschewing the forced-induction route that many of its competitors are starting to roll out, Mazda is trying to squeeze the most out of a naturally aspirated internal combustion engine with already-known technology.

The new SkyActiv 2.0-liter takes advantage of direct injection, a high compression ratio, and weight reduction to help the compact 3 hit that all-important 40 mpg number. From behind the wheel, it's still clear that this is a small-displacement four-cylinder making at most 155 hp, but the six-speed automatic, which is also new, does wonders to make the 3 feel peppier off the line.

The transmission's upshifts are Lexus-creamy, and its downshifts are relatively non-intrusive, especially if you use the manu-matic shift gate. The gearbox stays in the highest ratio possible at all times, often requiring a double-downshift under acceleration. The brakes on the updated 2012 model seem to be taking a page from the sportier Mazdaspeed3 with their strong stopping power.  

That said, the Mazda 3 is still one of the best cars to drive in the compact class, and with the new engine, compact-car buyers can have fuel efficiency without giving up the fun factor.
