2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh I prefer my instrument panels compact.

Not the car for me... 2012 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons NCDurmguy Rear visibility is AWFUL. I can barely see the road with my rear-view mirror, and I'm 6'1". Side view is also not good due to massive rear pillars; difficult to change lanes, and backing out of parking spaces is an adventure. Large thick A-Pillars don't help either. |

2014 Mazda3 - Mazda adds up-market refinement. It works. 2014 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons acetech09 Although the sleek hatchback looks great, it did limit the rear visibility somewhat. However, that's the only issue - otherwise the car has great natural visibility, augmented by a plethora of safety gadgets. |

2014 Hyundai Elantra GT Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh The Elantra GT's swoopy styling has an all-too-common downside. Compared to those in the Elantra Touring, the new car's instrument panel is much deeper (visually distancing the driver from the road) and its windows are smaller. The Focus's instrument panel is nearly as deep, but that in the redesigned Mazda... Comparison vehicle: 2014 Mazda Mazda3 |

2005 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons Member5872 Visibility is mediocre. Not awful, but it could be better. This is definitely a tradeoff for looks. The seats are great (if you like firm), but I think a tall person would have a problem. I'm only 5'9" and I drive with the seat all the way back, which seems... |

2013 Ford Focus ST Review Official TrueDelta review by Michael Karesh If I could change one thing about the Focus ST, it would be the view forward from the driver seat. The instrument panel is tall and very deep. A lower, shallower instrument panel beneath a less steeply raked windshield would enable a more direct, more intimate connection between the driver,...

2006 Mazda Mazda3 Pros and Cons jrexplore The driving position is acceptable only for a shorter person with the seat cranked up. Taller people have to lower the seat for headroom, which puts the seat too close to the floor. The front pillars at the windshield corners obstruct forward vision a bit |
