Necro with speculation:

This would indicate putting R&D money in a cheaper more efficient powerplant that may scale up throughout the line rather than a cheaper lighter chassis, but of course, they can do both (*mazda shaved ~200 lbs. off the 3 while dropping the price >$1k and giving it a motor that was only a year or two old).

obligatory fuck yeah not another boring VAG I4

Edit: Healthy amount of skepticism here, just opinions based off noises, but it really reminds me of an STI...
