Mazda Atenza Gr.3
Mazda's Atenza Gr.3 brings the brand's rotary racing legacy into the modern turbocharged era, pairing a lightweight 1,280 kg chassis with front-engine rear-wheel-drive balance that rewards smooth, precise inputs over aggressive throttle work. Its relatively modest power output makes it exceptionally forgiving on tight technical circuits where mechanical grip and driver finesse matter more than raw acceleration, particularly excelling at tracks like Suzuka and Spa where mid-corner stability and consistent cornering speed translate to competitive lap times.
