The vehicle is quite agile and has excellent feedback despite its electric power steering.
Interior materials are aesthetically impressive for the price segment and have good ergonomics and tactile feedback. Most elements feel solid and well built.
The vehicle is priced very well in its segment considering its strengths and overall quality.
Well laid out dash and radio controls. The GT package adds leather which is a nice touch.
Not much insulation from road noise - can be annoying at highway speeds.
Sub par for the segment driving under mixed city/highway conditions. Really tanks in the winter.
Ride can be rough and choppy over challenging road surfaces due to the OEM suspension tuning.
Mazda dealer service is awful and incredibly expensive. I do most of my own work due to this issue.
Not for everyone - the HB can appear a bit chunky at certain angles. Not a deal breaker, but this is not the best looking car in the segment.
