You may not know that Mazda attempted a Lexus-style subbrand of its own in the early 1990s. The A4's seven-speed dual-clutch automatic provides crisper and quicker shifts than the 3's conventional automatic, and the Audi outruns the Mazda to 60 mph by 0.8 second and through the quartermile by 0.6 second despite the A4 being 313 pounds heavier. Mazda has yet to introduce an included maintenance program or a concierge service, but we wouldn't expect it to given that Mazda still charges mainstream prices for its vehicles.
