Mazda stores its power for the 2019 CX-3 in a 2.0-liter inline-4 engine that is now able to spin out 148 of hp and 146 lb-ft of torque after mating with a 6-speed automatic transmission. It is a powertrain combination that is just enough for a family car to run about the cities and highways without a hitch while everyone can enjoy the ride even after a day long drive.
