Walser Mazda has a very important announcement for Mazda drivers in the Burnsville area! The answer to drivers' demand for superb fuel economy, heart-rate accelerating power, and stop-in-your tracks style, the 2012 MAZDA3 SkyActiv, will be available, starting THIS month.

Like the 2011 variant, the 2012 model will be available in both sedan and hatchback models. The MAZDA3 SkyActiv's sporty, sleek, sophisticated style is characterized by a recognizable urban edge that really sets it apart from competing 4-door and 5-door models. Perhaps the most obvious change from the 2011 model is reflected in the 2012 model's full name: MAZDA3 SkyActiv. SkyActive reflects a complete powertrain redesign. We're talking everything from the engine to the transmission.

So, how have the new engine and transmission impacted fuel economy and power? In a word: Phenomenally.

The new 2012 MAZDA3 SkyActiv delivers 40 mpg on the highway (an increase of about 7 mpg) and a healthy little boost in horsepower and torque really help the 2012 model live up to the "Zoom. Zoom" tagline.

After just a month on the market, the MAZDA3 SkyActiv is already garnering rave reviews from new owners. For example, on kkb.com, "Sdmcub", from Florida, says, "We needed a new car, but wanted something under $30k that was engaging to Drive and still offered value. We looked at the MazdaSpeed 3, the...WRX,...GTI...and...C30. After driving them all and optioning them all with everything we wanted the Mazda cap up as the best Value overall. All 3 of the others went over $30k...We have now had the MazdaSpeed 3 for 6 months and I'm excitingly happy with this 'Toy Racer' it's very fun to drive, it handles like a slot car, it's quick and gets good MPG..."¹

Remember those are an owner's words, not ours. Of course, while we're extremely proud to carry a car that has earned such a glowing review (there are plenty more where this one came from), we understand you'll have to experience the 2012 MAZDA3 for yourself to know just how right "Sdmcub" is.
