Who buys this

CX-3 2.0 Active Edition Auto FWD makes the most sense for an owner whose route and budget agree with engine of 2-litre Naturally Aspirated Petrol

City

Highway
For national-road use in the CX-3 2.0 Active Edition Auto FWD, test its 2.0 litre in-line 4 cylinder with 115 kw and 206 nm, 6-speed auto, fwd. Run CX-3 2.0 Active Edition Auto FWD at legal cruising speed, include a hill and a safe overtake, and see whether the driver can remain relaxed after an hour. The interaction between a power output of 115 kW @ 6000 rpm, a 6-Speed Automatic transmission and a 6-Speed Auto transmission is more informative than maximum speed
Off-Road
The CX-3 2.0 Active Edition Auto FWD remains bound by this model's published clearance, driven wheels and tyre specification. For CX-3 2.0 Active Edition Auto FWD, the sensible check is the exact fwd arrangement, tyre specification, load and protection underneath
