Seeing the Ferrari Purosangue reminds one of the Mazda 3 Hatchback

Maybe it's just my mind jumping from one thought to another, but the Ferrari Purosangue actually reminds me of the Mazda 3 Hatchback.

These are two completely unrelated cars—one is an SUV, the other a hatchback; one has a wheelbase of over 3 meters, the other only 2725mm; one is from a super luxury brand, the other from a mass-market brand.

Ferrari is great; they make the fastest cars. But in my mind, brands like Mazda are even greater, as they allow more people to drive beautiful and fun-to-drive cars, just like the Mazda 3 Hatchback.

Among Japanese car brands, Mazda has the most luxury potential, at least in terms of design, and even their website is impressive, haha…

The entire body of the Mazda 3 Hatchback makes it feel like the cabin is being pushed back, even the second-row windows are smaller. This is all just to make the front end longer, and that’s something I want to praise about the Mazda 3 Hatchback.



Moreover, Mazda's cars have a unified, harmonious aesthetic. Whether it's the exterior or interior, the soft lines look very comfortable. I’m not afraid to say it—BMW and Benz designs are not as good as Mazda's, because Mazda's designers know how to restrain unnecessary ideas.

The design of the Mazda 3 Hatchback’s center console screen is also great. It's not just a screen sitting on top of the dashboard; its position is perfect. When you're driving the Mazda 3 Hatchback, you only need to glance left to clearly see the content on the 8.8-inch screen.

Fortunately, the Mazda 3 Hatchback is equipped with the SKYACTIV-G 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, which delivers a maximum horsepower of 162PS and a maximum torque of 213Nm. Paired with the SKYACTIV-DRIVE 6AT transmission, driving it is already a lot of fun.

Without the burden of a trunk, the Mazda 3 Hatchback's body becomes more agile. With the help of G-Vectoring Control Plus, the car stays very stable during turns, giving the driver more confidence than a Corolla or Civic.

Of course, the Mazda 3 Hatchback lacks space, so it's more suitable for those who drive alone frequently or for families of two for the foreseeable future. Otherwise, you'd have to buy a second car to take care of family needs.

Perodua Traz VS Ativa, which one is more worth buying?

Traz, as a newly launched mid-sized SUV, offers more spacious room and mainstream power compared to small SUVs, but its pricing appears slightly higher than that of Ativa. Ativa, on the other hand, is Perodua's long-time best-selling small SUV with more affordable pricing and a balanced combination of power and tech features.

Perodua Traz VS Toyota Yaris Cross, where does the Traz fall short?

Before the official launch of the Perodua Traz, market expectations were actually very high because it shares the same DNGA platform as the Toyota Yaris Cross. However, sharing the same platform does not equate to the same experience, and the Traz's final performance has indeed been disappointing. Perhaps it is precisely because of the delayed launch that it has almost no competitiveness in the current competitive environment.

Will the Toyota Yaris Cross come to Malaysia? If it comes, how much will it sell for?

The launch of Perodua Traz indicates that the market size of small SUVs in Malaysia has been expanding in recent years. However, the question naturally shifts back to Toyota. As a brand with the most comprehensive product line and a strong foundation in both the SUV and hybrid sectors, will Toyota choose the Yaris Cross to participate in this small SUV competition?

Why is the Toyota Sienna so popular with so many people?

In Malaysia, most family MPVs choose Toyota Alphard, Vellfire, or Kia Carnival. These models each have their advantages in luxury, space, or brand influence, but models that truly balance large space, multifunctional practicality, fuel efficiency, and reliability are rarely seen.
