The 2024 Mazda3 has quietly made its way into Australian showrooms, offering small-car buyers hatchback and sedan alternatives to the sales-hogging SUV. As such, the Japanese model continues to find itself going head to head with the Toyota Corolla and Kia Cerato.

So, what's changed with the Mazda3? Well, it's no longer available with a manual transmission nor a mild-hybrid powertrain, including the brand's SkyActiv-X flagship. That said, multimedia has received a big update, with certain variants getting a larger touchscreen and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, among other new features.

In this expert review, CarsGuide Contributing Journalist Byron Mathioudakis gets behind the wheel of the updated Mazda3's Evolve SP G25 to see if it's really considering over that SUV. After all, while it might not look like it, the current-generation model is getting older.
