Mazda 2 Maxx 3-door hatch (2008)

30 Jan 2009 5:26 PM

Shame the spunky, new-age Mazda 2 Maxx doesn't come with direct iPod connectivity. You do get a 3.5mm auxiliary jack and an MP3-capable six CD changer.

Chrysler Grand Voyager Limited (2008)

01 Mar 2009 11:54 PM

The original people mover has now grown in size and has all the trinkets of a business class flight, including an DVD entertainment system for rear seat passengers. Shame then that's 300C inspired styling is just plain blocky and the quality highly suspect.

Mazda 2 Neo 3-door hatch (2008)

30 Jan 2009 5:23 PM

Smaller and lighter than the previous model, the Mazda 2 is a revelation for small cars, and for cars in general. There's not much tech on the inside, save maybe the 3.5mm auxiliary input for your MP3 player.
