Mazda CX-3 2018
Carsguide Contributing Journalist Andrew Chesterton had this to say at the time: With the obvious exception of Two and a Half Men, things are usually popular for reason, and that is they're good. And the CX-3 deserves to be duking it out for the top sales spots in the segment. It's a city car, of course, and so it shines brightest in the urban jungle, but its stylish design and top-class safety offering are pretty sizeable selling points for Australias's city dwellers.Â
