	First Drive: 2002 Mazda Protegé5 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The Mazda gets a 2.0-liter 130-horsepower engine, which is sufficient to move the 5's 2,716 pounds with reasonable authority while meeting ultra-low emission vehicle standards.
		Rear seat accommodations are similar to those in the Protegé, which means legroom is somewhat sparse when taller occupants are sitting in the front seats.
		Mazda is targeting college-educated buyers in their early 30s with the Protegé5, which is estimated to account for just 10 percent of Protegé sales in 2002.

	1999 Mazda Protege new car reviews including vehicle histories, MSRP prices, invoice prices, ride and handling ...
		Protege is a competitor in the very large -- approximately 2 million units sold a year -- Compact Sedan segment of the car market.
		Protege accounts for 25% of Mazda's sales volume in the U.S. thus strong sales performance is critical to Mazda's survival and growth.
		Mazda feels that if they can win over these younger buyers with the Protege giving them a positive experience, they may keep them in Mazda cars for many years as their needs and finances evolve.

	Mazda Protege Test- Sport Compact Car Magazine
		The Mazdaspeed Protegé gives up 73 hp and a 100 lb-ft of torque to the overendowed SRT-4, and yet it was surprisingly close to nudging the Dodge out of the top spot.
		Hustling the Mazdaspeed Protegé down a twisty road elicits the same slack-jawed amazement once reserved for the Integra Type R. A suspension with this kind of unflappable poise and consistent controllability is very rare.
		The Mazdaspeed Protegé's crowning jewel is the Tochigi Fuji Sangyo conical ring torque-sensing limited-slip differential.

	First Drive: 2001 Mazda Protegé MP3 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Mazda's new MP3, which is based on the Protegé ES 2.0 Sedan, fits right into this slot with an out-the-door price of $18,500.
		This is the first factory application of an in-dash MP3 player, and it's hooked up to a 180-watt four-channel head unit driving six speakers (5x7-inch two-way speakers in all four doors and a set of 6x9-inch three-ways in the rear shelf) and a 100-watt 10-inch subwoofer mounted in the trunk.
		Obviously, Mazda needed to include some snazzy detailing to attract Echo Boomers to the MP3 so they could hear the thumping stereo and thus be enticed to drive the car fast through some curves and subsequently write the company a check.

		Mazda's interpretation, the MPV, allows seven passengers to travel in comfort, with power-opening windows for both front and second-row passengers, convenient storage bins up front and a cavernous 54.6 cubic feet of storage space in back with the third-row bench folded flat into the floor.

		Mazdas are enjoying a reputation as thrifty and reliable, especially as they reach mileage levels where other cars are hidden behind tall fences, sharing parking space with tall weeds.
		Now Mazda has defined their interior modeling process as "OptiSpace,"and while all companies do this in some form, it is especially successful on the new Protegé.
		The Protégé is important to Mazda, as it is their bread-and-butter car.

		Well, at least its new Protegé, which has been redesigned for the 2001 model year, may actually warrant the use of the word "zoom." The car that has previously been shunned by the enthusiast market and therefore the aftermarket has just stood up to be counted.
		The handling of the Protegé was improved thanks to 16-inch wheels, a speed-sensitive steering system, and revised suspension pickup points and stiffer subframing, which results in crisp turn-in and stable road holding.
		The redesigned Protegé is the first step to becoming worthy of the word “zoom.” The only negative: The Protegé’s low-speed crash worthiness has been compromised in the new version.

		Mazda also added a metal support yoke to the steering gear mechanism for greater rigidity and while that does add some accuracy to the system, it also transmits a bit more vibration through the wheel and to the driver’s arms.
		Sometime this spring, they’ll add the Protegé 5, which is a short-coupled sport wagon version emboldened with even sportier trim (a three-spoke steering wheel and a deep front fascia with oversize driving lights) but carrying the ES’ drivetrain.

	Is Mazda the solution to Ford's troubles? - Autoblog
		Mazda certainly has one thing down over its controlling company...it KNOWS what it is. For Ford, that is something that hasn't been with them since the late sixties or earlier.
		Mazda's zoom-zoom approach is profitable, but it's not something that can be implemented on the grand-scale at which Ford operates.
		Mazda is a "sporty" brand (Mazda is to Ford as Pontiac is to GMC) and should be allowed to make sporty cars.

	Mazda Protegé - - Car and Driver - March 2001
		If the previous Protegé ES was, as we asserted, "a disciplined machine, with quick, sure suspension responses," then its successor is even more so, which should help it hang onto its title as lord of the flies, at least for the time being.
		The foregoing applies to the ES and LX 2.0 editions of the Protegé more than the base DX and LX, by the way.
		In addition to the familiar Protegé sedans, Mazda is adding the Protegé 5, a five-door hatchback version of the ES enhanced by a racier front fascia and ground-effects rocker panels.

		Finally they decamped, and the Protegé and I spent some adult time together.
		The Protegé doesn't boast eye-popping horsepower or killer performance equipment, but it benefits from a combination of smart, sporty packaging and a relatively light frame.
		The 16-inch tires are about the largest you'll find on a compact, and they help keep the car on your intended path, even on tight curves at energetic speeds.
