2015 Mazda CX-3 starting price revealed in newsletter - Malaysia
Now expected to be launched in Q4 2015.
An alleged company newsletter has revealed the starting price of the 2015 Mazda CX-3 for the Malaysian market, which starts at RM 120,000 [INR 20.5 Lakhs]. This is inline with the pricing posted by a local Mazda dealer on Facebook, claiming that the Mazda CX-3 will start from RM 120,000- 130,000.
Older Malaysian reports have suggested that the Mazda CX-3 will be available in a single trim, which will be packed with many features such as six airbags, LED taillamps, and a head-up display as standard. It would source power from a 2.0-litre SkyActiv-G direct injection petrol engine delivering 150 hp and 204 Nm through a 6-speed automatic transmission.
Later on, a leaked set of tentative specifications revealed that Mazda is also bringing the CX-3 powered by the new 1.5 litre SkyActiv-D engine, which generates 104 hp and 270 Nm of torque to only the front wheels (the petrol will be 2WD only, too) via a six-speed auto transmission. At the moment, Bermaz Motors, representatives of Mazda in Malaysia, have not confirmed the diesel variant for launch.
