Looks like MotorTrend has the first US review that I've seen:
2016 Mazda CX-3 First Drive - Motor Trend
One thing I noticed in this is that they have confirmed that the engine is a "2.0-liter I-4 making 146 hp and 146 lb-ft of torque". So it sounds like we're getting the slightly detuned engine here too. Also of note "Mazda expects front-drive CX-3s to best the HR-V in fuel economy, so expect to see the cute-ute to net as much as 29/36 mpg city/highway for front-drive models."
It also mentions that it won't be going on sale until the fall. No specific date is mentioned. Also "projected starting price of around $20,000 and topping out near $30,000".
