Sedan Reviews

Mid-size sedans aren't at the top of many shopping lists these days, but if any car can change that, it's the Mazda 6 GT.

The A3 Sedan is a small four-door saloon and sits between the Sportback and Cabriolet with a list price starting at $41,900.That price will get you into the 1.4 TFSI grade which comes with xenon headlights with LED running lights, leather upholstery, dual-zone climate control, a 7.0-inch touchscreen with sat nav, reversing camera, multimedia system with voice control, eight-speaker stereo, Bluetooth connectivity, CD player, front and rear parking sensors, paddle shifters, rear view camera and 17-inch alloy wheels.The next grade up is the $48,000 2.0 TFSI Sport which adds leather sports front seats, aluminium door sills, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and 17-inch alloys (with a different design).The 2.0 TFSI quattro S line lists for $51,600 and brings in lowered sports suspension, 18-inch alloys and LED headlights.The grade naming hints at the engine sizes – the 1.4 TFSI has a 1.4-litre four-cylinder making 110kW/250Nm; the 2.0 TFSI Sport has 2.0-litre four-cylinder making 140kW/320Nm, while the 2.0 TFSI quattro S line has the same engine but is all-wheel drive – the other two are front-wheel drives.All engines are turbo-petrols – there is no diesel.The amount of safety equipment increases as you step up through the grades but all A3s have a maximum five-star ANCAP rating and AEB as standard.

If you're looking for a small sedan, you're not alone. Despite the fact the main focus in the small car segment seems to revolve around five-door hatchbacks, four-door sedans such as the Hyundai Elantra still play a decent role in meeting the needs of buyers.The Elantra may not play the same critical role the i30 hatch does for Hyundai, but it still competes against some established players, such as the Mazda 3, Toyota Corolla and Subaru Impreza.And this one is the most affordable version, the 2018 Hyundai Elantra Active, which offers a lot for buyers who are on a tight budget and need a spacious small sedan.
