2015 Mazda three | fresh car sales price

Mazda has updated the popular Mazda3 sedan and hatch for 2015, with rear parking sensors now standard across the entire range and price reductions for most models.

Entry level Neo models miss out on a price drop, however pricing for the Maxx is diminished by $600; Touring and SP25 by $700; SP25 GT by $800; and SP25 Astina by $1150.

The top-spec turbodiesel XD Astina also sees its pricing dropped by $940.

On top of the now-standard rear parking sensors, the entry-level Neo also gains 16-inch alloys to substitute the previous steel wheels and hubcaps, but resumes to miss out on the standard reversing camera that comes with all other three models. Maxx and Touring models also receive front fog lamps.

Engine and transmission options remain unchanged, with Neo, Maxx and Touring models powered by a Two.0-litre four-cylinder engine and either a six-speed manual or six-speed torque converter automatic transmission.

SP25 models keep their Two.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine with six-speed manual or automatic tranmissions.

The XD Astina resumes as the only three available with the Two.2-litre four-cylinder turbodiesel engine, along with its choice of six-speed manual or automatic transmissions.

Every model with the exception of the fully-specced Astinas can have a factory-fitted Safety pack optioned, which adds blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert and autonomous emergency braking. On the Neo and Maxx the Safety pack also adds an auto-dimming rear view mirror which is standard further up the range.
