2019 MAZDA3 HATCHBACK QUICK TAKES

The 2019 Mazda3 sets a new milestone as the first production model to lead Mazda into a bold new era.

A completely new design approach was taken when styling the sedan and hatchback, each embodying strikingly different personalities.

2019 Volkswagen Arteon Review

Volkswagen has a new halo model and no it’s not a W8 or a Phaeton. They’ve named it the Arteon and it picks up where the CC left off, offering VW shoppers a more stylish alternative to the Passat. MSRP of this one with no options is $42,790.  It’s a car I’d be happy to drive every day and with 4MOTION it’s a perfect year-round family car with some flair. https://testdrivenow.com/2019-volkswagen-arteon/
