Officially official: Mazda finally reveals all-new 3 sedan

After launching the all-new Mazda 3 hatchback globally in five locations simultaneously less than a month ago, the Japanese carmaker has now revealed what the sedan version looks like.

Like the hatchback, the all-new Mazda 3 sedan\'s global engine lineup includes a newly developed 1.5-liter Skyactiv gasoline engine in addition to the 2.0- and 2.5-liter mills and 2.2-liter clean diesel powerplant. A hybrid electric version, exclusive to the sedan, will also be made available but only for Mazda\'s home country of Japan.

The good news for us is that, unlike the current-generation 3 which was launched here in 2012--three years after it had been introduced globally--we\'ll be getting Mazda\'s all-new compact offering in 2014, just a year after its global debut, as confirmed by the CEO of Mazda\'s Philippine-market distributor, Berjaya Auto Philippines\' Steven Tan.

So, what do you think of the all-new Mazda 3 sedan?
