mazda 3 turning circle Page 5

You want tight turns without the three-point shuffle? The Mazda 3 does about 10.6 m kerb-to-kerb in most recent models, which is neat enough for suburban cul-de-sacs and tight shopping-centre ramps. Older generations hover around ~10.4–10.6 m, and bigger wheels or specific trims can nudge that by a whisker. It’s not London taxi tight, but it won’t embarrass itself dodging rogue wheelie bins. For parallel parks, it’s more “flick and done” than “sweaty-palmed ballet.” Key spec: ~10.6 m kerb-to-kerb. Consult official documentation for exact figures.
