2000 Mazda Protege

sedan 234,157 silver automatic

2000 mazda protege review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. One of the best cars in its class. introductionthe mazda protege is as roomy as many of the more-expensive mid-size cars. The makeover included a new body style with a distinctly european look, a tough new frame, two new engines and a new transmission. It resulted in a vehicle that was hailed in many quarters as the best in its class. the changes shone even more in the context of the previous protege, which was so fundamentally sound and aesthetically pleasing that mazda could have gone a few more years without an overhaul. Mazda's decision to plow ahead with luxury-car styling, comfort, and roominess in an economy car raised the bar for its competitors. for 2000, mazda has improved the protege even more with a number of refinements. They include optional side-impact air bags for the front seats and an optional anti-lock braking system with electronic brake force distribution -- a stability-control system commonly found on much higher-end cars. A 4-speed automatic transmission can be added as an $800 option. the protege es is powered by a 1. 8-liter, 4-cylinder, 122-horsepower engine that is essentially a slimmed-down version of the 2. 0-liter engine that powers mazda's 626 midsize sedan. Protege es comes with bigger front disc brakes and a higher level of standard equipment. protege competitors include the top-line toyota corolla le, with a 1. 8-liter engine and manual transmission at a base price of $15,068. The top-line honda civic ex sedan, with a 1. 6-liter engine and manual transmission, is steeper, with a base price of $16,830. walkaroundwe drove the top-line es. The $15,040 base price includes such standard features as power windows, door locks and exterior mirrors, tilt steering column, rear defogger, power rack-and-pinion steering, cruise control, and 60/40-split fold-down rear seats. Along with the $450 delivery charge, that kicked the total price up to $17,870. the redesigned protege is based on the narrow-platform version of the mazda 626 sedan that is sold in japan and europe. Mazda's designers have made no secret of the fact that they drew their styling inspiration from european cars. The protege's rounded corners, sculpted hood line and clean, uncluttered shape suggests a variation on bmw's corporate look. The compact, chrome-accented grille, the distinctive front badging, the monochromatic body-side moldings, and the recessed door handles enhance that feeling. We love the big, bold wraparound tail lamps. In fact the protege is as roomy as many of the longer, wider and pricier mid-size sedans. Front-seat roominess is comparable to that of a honda civic ex sedan. the rear seats are also roomy. Mazda's engineers cleverly mounted the front-seat tracks in a way that yielded more space for rear-seat passengers, whose knees are now mercifully spared from being scrunched up against the back of the driver's seat. just as important, the interior controls are easy to operate. The stereo is placed higher up on the dashboard than on many cars, which allows drivers to flip stations and fast forward to favorite tracks with just a quick glance away from the road. we applaud the sturdy grab handles above the rear passenger windows. The seats are comfortable and supportive, though we found it a bit hard to turn the knob to adjust the angle of the driver's seatback. Rear-seat headroom is limited; at 5-feet, 11-inches, my hair brushed the headliner. driving impressionwhen mazda redesigned the protege in 1999, designers in hiroshima made a number of chassis-strengthening improvements. They increased the bending strength by 22 percent and torsional (twisting) rigidity by 12 percent. Protege's crash protection also has been improved by the addition of side-impact reinforcements. Not all compact cars handle snow particularly well, but the protege was able to plow its way out of a foot of snow -- with no prior shoveling. The car also offered good acceleration whether starting from a standstill or pulling out of corners. When coupled with the 5-speed manual transmission, the 1. 8-liter powerplant will offer even better thrust in passing situations. the protege's brakes -- disc in the front and drums in the rear -- bring the car to a quick, stable stop under hard braking. They showed no evidence of fading or locking-up prematurely. Optional abs allows the driver to maintain control of steering during panic stops. road noise and engine noise can be a problem with small cars, especially on the freeway, but mazda has expertly damped it out, making the protege one of the quietest cars in its class. It seems quieter than the $21,400 infiniti g20. summaryautomakers seeking to fill the bottom end of their product lines have come a long way from the spartan econoboxes of the past two decades. The mazda protege is a prime example of ever-increasing levels of refinement in base offerings. For years, the honda civic and toyota corolla have been the kingpins of the economy car market and with good reason: they offer high-quality, reliable transportation. but even before it was redesigned, the mazda protege was a durable, refined offering that could compete with those standard bearers. Mazda's faith in the quality of its product can be seen in its warranty: 50,000 miles compared to the 36,000-mile coverage offered by most carmakers. And one full year after its redesign, continual refinements and a touch of style maintain the protege's status as a seductive alternative. model lineupprotege dx 11,970), protege lx 13,245), protege es 15,040). assembled inhiroshima, japan. options as testedautomatic transmission 800); es premium package 1580) includes power moonroof, front side-impact air bags, carpeted floor mats, abs. model testedprotege es 15,040).
