The 2015 Mazda Flair HS works best as an urban commuter rather than an all-purpose performance hatchback. Its compact dimensions, CVT, low fuel consumption, and surprisingly useful cabin make it well suited to Colombo and other congested Sri Lankan areas.
The 2017 Model 3 remains significant because it demonstrated that an electric sedan could combine substantial range, strong acceleration, and high energy efficiency without adopting unusual city-car proportions. The Long Range RWD version's original 310-mile EPA rating remains respectable even today.
