Mazda 3 XD Astina 2016 review: snapshot
2016 Mazda3 XD Astina hatch
The diesel XD Astina is the top of the Mazda3 line-up, and kicks off at $39,290 for the hatchback-only trim level.
What we like
- Balance of looks and practicality
- More grunt but uses less fuel
- All safety kit included
What we don't
- Trade-off for larger wheels is a sharper ride
- Cabin is noisier than segment-benchmark Golf

The diesel XD Astina is the top of the Mazda3 line-up, and kicks off at $39,290 for the hatchback-only trim level.
This list price is $4250 more than the petrol SP25 Astina beneath it, and the XD Astina brings Alcantara inserts for the leather seats, a shadow chrome finish to the 18-inch alloys, red-outlined front grille, LED front foglamps, gloss black rear bumper insert, but misses out on the standard rear parking sensors found on all petrol models.
The XD Astina also scores the i-Eloop energy recovery system from the Mazda6, revised rear dampers and subtle augmentation of the exhaust note through the cabin speakers.
The XD Astina also brings the 129kW/420Nm 2.2-litre four cylinder turbodiesel engine, and is paired with the same six-speed manual and optional six-speed automatic that can be added for an extra $2000.
