It’s more aggressive looking; it’s even got a hood-scoop that could scare the pants off other high-performance hatchbacks; however, it still carries the same ol’ 263-hp 2.3L DISI Turbo 4-cylinder. Yes, we’re talking about the 2010 Mazdaspeed3 (like you couldn’t already tell by the pictures and the title).
Word on the street is that Ford is considering the Focus RS for the U.S. market. Of course, that makes our wandering little minds wonder if Ford will be kind enough to share its 305-hp 2.5L 5-cylinder Duratec engine with the next-generation Mazdaspeed3.
Until then, let’s just enjoy the bold styling and the hood-scoop.
Make the jump for the press release and the high res image gallery.
