I love this car! The sports edition truly has a significant power increase, it is a very smooth ride, and great on gas (except when using sport mode). My only complaint is the room inside the car. I so not recommend this vehicle if you have young children, especially in car seats. Front seats must be more than halfway pushed up just to get my 2 year old into her car seat. My largest complaint: the area on either side of the front seats. It is absolutely impossible to get my mobile phone, even a piece of paper without parking the vehicle, putting seat in back-most position, and going underneath the front of the seat, or vice versa. If I was still young, single, and without child, it would be my most favorite car to date.

An extraordinarily supreme car.
Great car, very easy to drive, clutch is like butter. Easy to maintain and good quality parts make this car the best economy car you can buy. Do not go with a Nissan or Hyundai because Mazda blows them out of the water with it is state of the art performance. The experience is one of a kind and you'll find out once you take one for a test drive.

If you want a affordable, reliable car that is great on gas choose Mazda!
Performance and reliability is 100% great!! I love using sport mode to get up to high speeds quicker when getting on the highway. Having hands free Bluetooth to receive calls and text messages is much safer than being on the phone. The interior is beautiful, I love the screen. Lots of USB ports for charging!! You can buy a pre downloaded USB GPS to plug into the port that will actually load on to the screen GPS directions to get to a destination!! It also has very easy cruise control that you can adjust speeds with just a press of a button on the steering wheel!!

Sleek and sporty Mazda sport.
My car is great overall. Problems I would say deal with touch screen. It is a little small and the touch feature does not always work correctly. The tire pressure light is also difficult to take off. It gets great gas mileage and very comfy. It has leatherette and is very easy to clean. I got the blue and it actually sparkles when in the sun. It is a sleek, sporty car that any guy or girl would enjoy.

Mazda 3 is awesome! Best car yet.
No problems. I have 21k miles and nothing has broken. I've only gone in to get the filters and oil changed. It is very comfortable it reminds me of a BMW make. The seat warmers are awesome! The leather seats are very comfortable and modern. The sound system is great too I play my music all the time.

Great speakers, features (such as lane change alert), and smoothness.
I am in love with my mazda3 vehicle. It is smooth, it is gorgeous, and so luxury for their price ranges. I got it about 2 years ago and unfortunately, involved in a hit and run. After having it get fixed up, it still runs like a charm. The speakers are great, adjusted the sound to how I like it, and the optional passenger a/c where they can adjust their temperature on their side is wonderful. And the best part, it only takes around $17 to fill up my tank! My blue Mazda 3 with black interior is a beauty. I would not trade it for anything else.

My fourth Mazda but may be changing my opinion with the 2018 model.
This is my fourth Mazda. The first three I had were wonderful but my current 2018 model has been in the shop more than my other 3 put together. It might be a lemon with problems that vary. I bought it with under 50 miles on it so I am the only owner. It might just be the 2018 model because I loved my previous grand touring models. I cannot fully describe the pesky problems. They have been more of nuisance problems rather than major issues. This Mazda had changed my opinion and when I get another new car, I think I'll be looking at other makes and not stick with Mazda.
Va M
on June 4, 2021
The Mazda 3 is the best first car I could have gotten.
The gas management on this vehicle is great. Even though it is a sports car, the gas tank full lasts me more than a week. The vehicle is very smooth in acceleration and it is very comfortable to drive. The added GPS card provides a stable map feature.
Aaron W
on June 1, 2021
Mazda 3 hatchback is a safe and reliable car.
I feel safe driving in the car. It is smooth and gas efficiency is good. It is reliable for any road trip. I feel comfort knowing that it is really secure. CarPlay is also great! When I want to move faster, there is a sport mode and I turn it on, so I travel fast!
Erin E
on May 31, 2021
Fun, sporty and reliable car!
The only downside to this vehicle is the gas mileage is not great; I feel like I am always getting gas. This car has been reliable for the 1.5 years I have owned it. The best feature is the sport mode switch that makes the vehicle quicker and makes driving on the highway easier.
Anna R
on May 29, 2021
This car absolutely fits me perfectly.
Great car for gas mileage and economy. The price point is wonderful and I was able to get the highest trim level, the grand touring, and all the bells and whistles too. It is very comfortable as well. It is a car that I can see out if easily. I am 5’3” and have no trouble seeing over the hood and behind me. I love the Bluetooth and the sound system is great. One thing I really like about the Mazda 3 is the pop up display above the steering wheel on the dash. It reads out the current speed limit, my speed, the cruise control information and any street signs around. The controls for the sound system are very unique. I love the toggles and knobs for controlling the sound system. You do not even have to raise your arm up. For such a small car there is a huge amount of room. Amazing what I can transport.
jessica G
on May 14, 2021
Great affordable vehicle.
Fabulous car I commute over 100 miles per day for work. I love the infotainment system on this car and the hands free functionality. Car drives very smoothly and has lots of great safety features such as lane keep assist and blind spot monitoring as well as smart city brake support. The only downside would be the fuel mileage and the fact the wheels have nitrogen plugs instead of air.
Carly C
on May 8, 2021
Love this modern vehicle!
This car has amazing safety features. I really enjoy the sporty look. It is very comfortable and spacious considering it is a sedan. I enjoy the sound system and the apple car play! Nice trunk space and visibility. I would recommend this car to anyone looking for something safe and new.
Dorothy O
on May 4, 2021
My Mazda 3 is the best car I have ever driven!
I love my mazda3 because it is. Easy to drive has a great safety rating and good gas mileage. Some of my favorite accessories include the cruise control that maintains a safe distance without me having to touch my brake or turn the cruise off. I like the high beam headlight feature that dims when approaching a car and brightens automatically after the. Car passes me. I like the brake assist. I drive a car with a 6 speed manual transmission and it really does “zoom ”!
Rose D
on April 19, 2021
Mazda 3 sports edition, complete with blue iSport engine and Bose sound.
It is amazing. Best car I have ever owned. The drive is smooth and my iSport engine is super fast! The steering is incredibly reliable and under control. Making it safer to drive. It is comfortable to ride in along with a killer sound system! It comes with Bose speakers. Great gas mileage. Can be used as a automatic or manual drive. One nice thing is economy mode. It saves even more on fuel.
kylie M
on April 18, 2021
Reliable, safe, and comfortable.
I am not a flashy car person, I just want a car that is comfortable and will not leave me stranded anywhere. The mazda3 is easy to drive, has great safety features, is comfortable, and has not had any issues so far. This is all I need out of a car, therefore I really like this car.
Tim S
on April 16, 2021
All-around good vehicle, very reliable and fun to drive.
Very reliable car, good cargo space, good mileage. Also has a rear view camera, which is a real plus. Very quiet interior as well. Smooth ride and good handling. Good visibility front and back. Comfortable seating and easy seat adjustability. Good cornering and performance.

Mazda 3 touring: pros and cons.
Very reliable. Runs very smoothly. Highly recommend as a first time car for new drivers. It was the first car that was purchased for me after I got my driver's license. Up until then I had only driven a Honda pilot. It is a very good size and the safety features are unbelievably reliable and accurate.
Carolina T
on April 11, 2021
Good mechanically but lousy finishes.
Mechanically seems sound. Finished are cheap, paid by has chipped and the interior never looks clean. The USB ports do not keep an iPhone charged using GSP. Seat is too low and not adequately padded. Difficult to clean interior of front and back windshields.
Bekah K
on April 1, 2021
Best vehicle on the market for me.
This is my second Mazda vehicle. Out all of the brands, I love Mazda because their cars are great quality. I have never had an issue with any of my cars. The overall performance is the most satisfactory. You literally feel like your driving on the smoothest surface.
Bruce K
on April 1, 2021
Best vehicle we have owned: no problems whatsoever! Other people love our car.
Mazda 3 touring is an outstanding vehicle. Great gas mileage, newest technology. CarPlay Bluetooth and hands free siri commands. Outstanding interior space and trunk storage. Great color millennium red. And cruise control. Outstanding Bose speakers with high quality sound.3 speed automatic transmission.
Eugene M
on April 1, 2021
Mazda 3 what I like and dislike.
I am a big person who fits nicely. The car has good power and amenities. The radio and sound controls are a bit complicated and it always goes to a default that I don't know how to change. I love the side view mirrors and warnings of approaching vehicles from rear.
Alexander B
on March 30, 2021
Compact car with ample storage and comfortable quiet ride.
Comfortable easy driving car, has ample trunk space in a small package. It is very good on gas mileage and the infotainment screen is well positioned. It can comfortably fit 5 people. It looks pretty and makes you happy. The engine is very reliable and you will not have to worry about your car breaking down on you.
Michelle E
on March 25, 2021
My vehicle is very fitting with what I use it for getting me to and from work.
My car at the moment needs an oil change along with a alignment, the mileage could be better but for the most park it does take me a long way, the heated seats are a blessing in the winter. The sports mode in the car is one of my favorite features along with the radio controls being in the center console.
Connor P
on March 20, 2021
Mazda is functional and sporty. It offers what you need while not compromising.
The Mazda 3 is a comfortable and fun ride. It can navigate city streets, make good time down highways, maneuver well, and is an amazingly comfortable ride. The leather interior, rear view camera, and blind spot monitoring are vehicle features that I absolutely love having. The ride in the Mazda 3 is superior to all other vehicles I have. It feels like gliding on air. The car also is incredibly durable and has very few issues. I have had very few issues and many of which are not related to the vehicle. However, sometimes the front display has issues when turning on the vehicle, and it often will get very hot in the vehicle after being left on the sun because of the black interior.
Hannah T
on March 17, 2021
The Mazda3 is reliable. It has a responsive break system, good mileage if you're willing to drive less than 70 mph on the freeway, and has preemptive warning systems for blind spots and upcoming maintenance.
The Mazda is reliable and fuel efficient. It's an acceptable size, with an acceptable sized trunk space. Sound does travel from the outside into the car a bit, and I frequently wonder if my door is not closed properly or the windows aren't closed, due to the sound.
Abbey S
on March 16, 2021
My car gets great gas mileage on the interstate.
My car is on the smaller side. It includes a large backup camera, blind spot monitoring, and Bluetooth. I do believe it will be to small for a family, but is perfect for just a couple of people.
Robert B
on March 14, 2021
Fun to drive and an easy ride to enjoy.
So far so good. The transmission is really fun how it is a auto and also in clutchless manual. It drives exactly like a manual in it. The body is nice, Mazdas are high quality vehicles. Parts get a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. So far after 3 years no major repairs, only minor maintenance. The oil is the expensive kind but it lasts twice as long between oil changes. The air monitoring and maintenance warning lights are a bit confusing. Otherwise still loving this vehicle.
Kelly B
on March 12, 2021
Mazda 3 - the best car ever.
Performance is great, it handles super on the two lane curvy roads around my house and the pick up rate on the interstate is awesome. The gas mileage is super. I love the accessories it has like the heated seats and the lane change indicators. I have gotten almost 40,000 miles on my first set of tires and they’re just now starting to show signs of wear. The cruise control and the adjustable seats work great in my car. If I could add anything to it I would add a sun/moonroof and a CD player. I can honestly say I love my car and will probably buy another Mazda when I get a new car. I am considering the c-3 and possibly a crossover.
Abby K
on March 8, 2021
Everything I love about the Mazda 3.
Drives great. I have never had a single problem with it. Very comfortable and has all the newest features including apple carplay which I use all the time. It also projects your speed onto a plastic thing that pops out of the top of your dashboard. This is super handy because you do not have to look down to see how fast you're going you see it while you are looking at the road. Overall it is an amazing car and I would recommend it to anyone.
Hannah B
on March 6, 2021
Excellent quality but downsides to model.
Keys locked car from inside twice. Nice leather seating and safety features. Nice wheels. Wish it were a v6 though. Also wish I was given 2019 as grill is better looking. Not a huge back seat so not a ton of room in the back. Overall excellent quality for MSRP. It gets 30 miles to the gallon which is also great.
Beth S
on March 5, 2021
The exact car I wanted for less than I expected.
A fantastic car. Has all the bells and whistles of much more expensive cars for way less. Easy and comfortable to drive. I am not the best at basic upkeep on cars and I have yet to have any problems. Fantastic on gas, even having to drive in stop and go rush hour traffic.
Teresa D
on March 4, 2021
My car is a great piece of machinery. I like the fact that it is stick shift.
It is a stick shift so I like that the gears are on the dashboard & it lets me know when & to change to. It is very comfortable & suited for a young crowd. Even with that being said anyone can drive this car. This car is reliable & the parts are not costly to fix.
Ashley S
on March 3, 2021
Goes faster than you expect.
I really love how driving a Mazda feels, it is very sporty and does not feel like it is dragging on. It is not loud and I Haven't found anything to be upset about. It is pretty comfortable, especially with the heated seats in the winter, and has plenty of space for luggage and friends sitting in the backseat. It has a lot of horsepower and is overall just a fun car to drive.
Kathy S
on March 3, 2021
What I like and dislike about my Mazda.
It drives so smoothly and you can change it to sport mode to accelerate more quickly really fast. The only thing I do not like is that there is no cup holders in between the back seats. They are on the doors and the headlights are not automatic which is a bummer because sometimes I switch them on and I do not notice I didn't do it all the way so they're in fact not on.
Nikki S
on March 3, 2021
This car accommodates everyone.
This car is so lovely to drive. It is sleek with a powerful engine. It handles turns easily. The dash is modern with several features. I loved the Mazda 3 so much that I bought a newer model when it came out. If you get a hatchback, just know you can fit much more than you think. I was able to get a brand new water heater and several sheets of plywood in the back.
Marcia G
on February 28, 2021
Affordable reliable fun and attractive vehicle.
Car performs great. Very impressive range of features come standard with the vehicle. The gas mileage is excellent. Maintenance to this point has been very straightforward and affordable. Vehicle itself is very reliable - the sport mode really does improve the handling of the vehicle.
Tanner W
on February 23, 2021
The vehicle overall is very quick and comfortable. No problems at all.
It is very comfortable for a tall person. It is a fast car. The car is very low to the ground which can be good and bad in its own way. Very comfortable on long car rides. I love the telescopic steering wheel. The gas mileage is extremely good. Even when in sport mode.
Kayla B
on February 23, 2021
This car is completely worth its price.
This car is very amazing and high-tech. It has a screen where you can view the music, navigation, etc. The seats are comfortable and the style is simply amazing.
Presten C
on February 21, 2021
It has a nice dash cluster.
It is a little small for a car seat in the back seats. Overall it is very economical. Great on gas mileage. And comfortable and smooth ride. I would definitely recommend a Mazda brand car for your next vehicle purchase. I would love to buy another one in the future.
Brianne B

2018 Mazda 3 sport feature, good but not great.
No problems so far. Reliability is great I never have to worry about getting to and from work. Comfort is good. I wish it had leather seats, the features are standard. Normal turn knobs. The ax is great and powerful. Performance of turning is great, wish it got off the line a little quicker.
Jill C
on February 16, 2021
I have a sport mode switch, and love the dash lighting.
I'm not a fan of some of the interior trim, but has a great dash and screen on dash. Car has great pick up with easy maintenance. Wish it had more digital features in the base model. Great for road trips, bucket seats are comfortable for long trips, has good gas mileage.
Emily D
on February 3, 2021
Great value for the price!
No problems, performance good, reliable, comfortable, tons of safety features such as blind spot, traffic emergency braking, skyactiv technology. Has fake leather seats. It is a 4-cylinder but I would prefer a v6 for the improved pick-up. Small and compact.
William M
on February 2, 2021
The Mazda 3 is a great car!
The Mazda 3 is a great sporty car. I love its style, and it handles very well. The driving position is very comfortable, but there is not enough room in the back seat for others. The 2.5 liter engine is very smooth, but it could use a bit more power. Maybe I will get a turbo in my next car.
Lauren H
on February 1, 2021
The Mazda 3 gt is a fun cute car.
I wish the vehicle had more useful features such as tire pressure display (can see what the pressure is in each tire rather than just the pressure light on). I would like to have the touch screen be touch screen the full time (touch screen deactivates when driving). Those are the only two issues I have with the car.
Shona J
on January 31, 2021
Mazda touring drives fast.
Nice a small. Trunk is roomy and has protective cover for items in the trunk. For a small car it is roomy and can hold 4 to 5 people comfortably. It has a sports drive feature which is nice for wanting more speed and edge. Great on mileage. This car takes premium gas and drives very different when cheap gas is used.
Shauna V
on January 29, 2021
Comfortable, sporty ride with smooth handling. Great features.
I have the Mazda 3 hatchback and I LOVE this vehicle. It is sporty, light, stable, and comfortable. I am petite in size and I finally feel like I have found a car that fits me.
Kyle P

2018 mazda3 hatchback grand touring.
The car drives smooth and performs as expected. So far the car has been reliable and dependable. It gets great gas mileage as long as you stay close to the speed limit. The infotainment system is relatively easy to use, with a rotary dial being the primary mode of navigation. However, the system can be very laggy and glitchy upon start up of the vehicle.
Teresa S
on January 25, 2021
Very sleek and you feel like your in a race car.
Very comfortable. Hugs corners like no other car I have owned. The radio and sound system are not very good. You can hear the road and cars too much. Not thrilled that the seats are vinyl and hope they hold up. If you are old school you will not like that there is no CD player. The doors are not very heavy so they do not close very well. The biggest disappointment is hearing outside noise.
Kelsey R
on January 24, 2021
My mazda3 is my favorite car that I have owned!
I love my mazda3! It has been extremely reliable and is surprisingly roomy while also being a smaller car. Gas mileage is pretty standard and I appreciate that it gives me detailed information about my driving (I.E. Avg speed, mpg). The heated seats in the winter make all the difference and I am genuinely surprised at how quickly the car warms up, even in freezing temperatures. Handles extremely well in the snow and ice. The Bose speakers make the sound system top notch and really make for a nice driving/listening experience.
Britney P
on January 24, 2021
Mazda3 gt s drives like a luxury sedan for an extremely affordable price.
The Mazda three grand touring sport is the most comfortable car I have ever leased and by far my favorite. It handles exquisitely and is a dream to drive. With multiple adjustment features, the Mazda 3 seamlessly provides comfortability for all different body shapes and sizes. The sport feature is a plus, but the blind spot monitoring is a key feature which other cars are missing and is crucial to avoiding accidents in high volume traffic areas like New York and Los Angeles.
Nicholas P
on January 14, 2021
Personal review on my Mazda 3.
The vehicle is a great car. If you get it manual it is very easy to learn on. I would recommend this car to anyone who is looking for a good reliable car. Never had any issue with the car it is a very good car to consider when buying. It is a smooth ride and very comfortable. If you like taking long trips this is a great car for that as well.
Wei W
on January 12, 2021
A low price quiet running car.
2018 Mazda 3 is a low cost car. A new car cost less than $19,000 when every cost was considered. Even through the low price, it is a high performance car, running extremely quietly. I even forgot to turn off the engine since I did not notice that the engine was running.
Daniel L

2018 mazda3 hatchback grand touring.
Purchased a new 2018 mazda3 grand touring hatchback in 2019 for a great price. My previous car was a 2001, so this was a significant upgrade. The assisted cruise control and sound system are especially noticeable. I tend to listen to my music on a low volume but when turned up the bass comes alive without drowning out the vocals. The gas mileage is also an improvement at about 35 mpg. Considering upgrading to a new model to get the all wheel drive.
Hannah S
on January 3, 2021
All around a+ vehicle, highly recommend.
I absolutely love this car. Out of all the cars I have driven, it is one of my favorites. It is a really smooth ride, great miles to gallon. My mom used to drive a 3 hour round trip to and from work and would still barely use a whole tank in a week. The leather seats are so nice and I know people who live in hot climates are not fans of leather because your legs will stick to it but it is just so soft and smooth that is not an issue I face. There’s also heaters in the seats which is incredible in the winter! The features that detect other cars are amazing too, beeping when you want to switch lanes to let you know there’s another car or if you are swerving and do not realize it. This car is such a smooth ride you can go 90 in it and not even realize it because it rides like a dream!
Nick V
on December 30, 2020
Comfortable personal vehicle.
My Mazda is comfortable and includes all the convenient features I would want. Premium audio, a simple entertainment system, advanced safety technology, and great mileage and performance. I am happy with how the vehicle drives over short and long trips. My only improvement would be to better integrate personal devices with the entertainment system similar to fords car sync.
Matt D
on December 30, 2020
Mazda 3 car review, great sound system.
The Mazda 3 I really have no issues with, it is very quick with a option to go in sports mode, performs really well on the road, the interior is comfortable and it has a pretty nice sound system. The cars exterior design is sleek and preferably my favorite.
Sarah P
on December 28, 2020
Mazda touring 3 is a great car.
I personally do not like small cars. So this is not my dream car. But gas mileage is amazing. The sensors and backup camera are great. I love how smooth and fast the car is. The car has amazing stock speakers. And Bluetooth is easy to hook up too. Overall it is a great car.
Laci C
on December 25, 2020
Fun to drive, sporty shape, speedy car.
It is sporty and easy to drive. I like the Bluetooth capabilities. The car is comfortable and is small enough for all my city driving and parking. It reaches speed quickly. This car has a roomy trunk for all of my kid equipment. It is very economical on gas too.
Gabriela G
on December 22, 2020
Push to start button. Leather interior. Coloring detail. Trunk space.
My vehicle is the most amazing in the industry. From starting at the dealership to taking my car home I have been nothing but happy. From the leather interior to the snowflake white pearl exterior. I have a smart city brake system which at a low speed will stop if there is something left in from of me and the abs system which is also amazing. The best feature has to be the push button start.
Shawn K
on December 20, 2020
It is fun to drive and was a great deal.
This car has great gas mileage, was extremely affordable and is a good value for the money. I will need to purchase another vehicle in 2 years and I would like to buy another one in silver. It is economical but sporty at the same and drives really well. I am very impressed with the Mazda 3. It is my second Mazda and like I said soon I will be ready to buy my third.
Lori M
on December 16, 2020
Fun sporty but practical car.
Great performance. Smooth ride. Updated interior features. Good gas mileage. Comfortable seats with good air conditioning and heat features. Apple car play is a definite plus and adds hands free controls of phone and text. Love the hatchback with room for lots of items.
William S
on December 13, 2020
The Mazda 3 is a great car!
I really love my Mazda 3. It is a sporty car with great handling and sufficient power. I think that it is a very stylish car and I consider it to be very attractive. It is only drawback is lack of legroom in the back seat. I currently have a three year lease. After this lease, I have to decide whether I will get the same model or the turbo versions.
Angela E
on December 12, 2020
Mazda 3 affordable reliable car with great gas mileage.
Love the way the car handles, affordable, great gas mileage, no problems with maintenance. Does have problems with the clock and connection to cell phone. Car is comfortable but could use arm rests and large cup holders and a cup holder for rear passengers.
Allison G
on December 12, 2020
Mazda 3 overall great vehicle.
My vehicle has been the most reliable vehicle I have had in my entire time owning a car. I have had no issues with the vehicle at all in 3 years of owning it, however recently I have noticed a small issue with my a/c system in which air blows on full blast for approximately 2 seconds randomly, then shuts off. This happens once every few days when I am driving. Other than this minor issue, the car has been absolutely perfect.
Jennifer H
on December 11, 2020
It has an automatic braking system which is good when in stop and go traffic.
I like the way the mazda3 drives and maneuvers. I like the side mirror indicators and automatic lights and wipers. I do not like that it does not have ac vents in the back seat. I also do not like that there is no CD player.
Monica D
on December 8, 2020
Got what I wanted and for a great price that didn't break my bank
I love my Mazda. It checked off all the boxes I needed and was a great price. The only thing I'd change is a different make because I'm used to driving bigger cars. But all in all I love it and haven't had any problems this far with it. I'd recommend to anyone who needs a car! Especially in the blue color!
Amber M
on December 5, 2020
It is extremely safe and efficient.
I love the great gas mileage, luxury features, sports car look and comfort. I dislike how loud the exhaust can be.
Sarah R
on December 4, 2020
An affordable, yet luxurious car.
The Mazda 3 is a great car. The drive is smooth and quiet. The only negative attribute that I have found so far has been the Bluetooth connection. I have trouble connecting my phone to my car for music nearly once a week. I have to then connect and disconnect the Bluetooth multiple times before it will work. The Mazda 3 is a spacious car and gets great gas mileage. I highly recommend it.
Zach F

White Mazda 3 with black rims.
I actually love driving my Mazda 3 sedan. It drives smoothly, has great gas mileage, and it sporty and looks great. I have a white car with black leather inside and black rims and I think it looks great with the Mazda 3. Most people who ride in it are pretty impressed. I would say for the price it is 100% worth it, I never have any mechanical issues or anything. Super reliable.
Dan C
on December 2, 2020
Mazda 3: Sporty with Great Looks!
No problems, good gas mileage and you don't have to use premium gas so gas is pretty cheap, quick and nimble with great looks. Entertainment center is easy to use and can be upgraded to android auto. Six speed manual has great pickup. Backup camera takes up the full screen and is very clear.
Meagan N
on December 1, 2020
Gas efficient car, unique features.
It is a smooth riding car that is great on mileage. It has a unique touch screen feature that is enabled only when you are in park, and has a control panel below the gear shift for whenever you need to navigate the screen while driving. The controls on the steering wheel are easy to find when you want to set cruise control or skip a song on your music (if not on the radio). It is a very reliable car that will get you where you need to be.
Colleen M
on November 26, 2020
Makes it difficult to listen to music.
I do not like how the radio turns on and you have to hit except to say that you know will not play with the radio while driving. Then it takes forever to load the stations or Pandora or Bluetooth or whatever else you have it connected to. Then it turns off sometimes by itself.
Heather H

It is leatherette seating, so looks like leather but not really, adding a more sophisticated touch to the car.
The vehicle is extremely sleek, and extremely beautiful to drive. It has a smooth drive, and very good function. The smart start button is also very convenient. Not the most powerful car, but still good enough for needs.

Best Car Under $25,000 and lots of fun
So far so good! There are a couple weird things but overall I enjoy the vehicle. It's quick enough, reliable enough, and very attractive and a good value. I just wish that the screen showed the entire name of the songs on the XM!

Cannot recommend highly enough.
Nothing but positive reviews. The vehicle feels comfortable to drive and I feel completely safe. The safety features are great, the gas mileage is good, the vehicle is reliable, and it just feels good to drive. A wonderful car for anyone and everyone.

Great car with great features.
As of right now, there are no issues with the mazda3. The car handles well, has good acceleration, and is fun to drive. It gets decent city gas mileage and great highway gas mileage. I enjoy the touring package features. The electronic control system was pretty intuitive and easy to learn. I would have preferred cloth seats over the leather seats. I enjoy the amount of cargo space in the hatchback.

Great choice for our family.
I have had no issues with my mazda3 and love that it was available in a manual transmission. So much fun to drive and a good value. It fits my family of four easily with plenty of trunk space. We looked at several other vehicles before landing on the mazda3 and am very glad we bought it.

The dashboard touchscreen is really cool looking
No vehicle problems at all. The car runs great. The suspension handles bumpy roads perfectly. I love the technology inside the car and appreciate the Apple CarPlay and Android integration. It makes it so much easier. The car also has great gas mileage, back up camera and lane assistance which is amazing. It is so cool. Plus the car looks great and sleek on the outside.

Mazda 3 is the best car to own
This is the best car I've ever been in. It doesn't look huge but there is so much room on the inside. The Bluetooth connects automatically making it a quick and easy process. The only downside is that there are no seat warmers so it gets a little chilly during winter months. The air comes on quick and same with the heat when it's needed. The trunk is really big. A lot of space to keep things.

One of the best vehicles you will ever own!
This is an extremely reliable. This car has never done me wrong. Love the features and the ride of the car. It is very smooth and it has great acceleration. Speeds up with ease and no loud noise. Love this car and will drive it till the wheels fall off!

Mazda 3 hatch, an absolute joy to drive.
No problems yet. Very reliable. Great drive-ability, lovely handling and acceleration and braking feel, just a great car overall. Fuel efficient, no tech or mechanical problems through 10,000 miles. An absolute joy to drive, always fun to take out, and the best car I have ever owned.

The most important thing others should know about my car is that it is mine.
I got it a few days ago and love everything about it. It has a TV, comfortable seats, and drives smooth. I look forward to its continued use.

Sporty sedan with comfortable and detailed interior.
Comfortable, quality, and reliable. The seats are comfortable, and spacious. The performance is exactly what you would expect. The only thing I would change is the size of the gas tank, and the lack of specific information on simple warnings such as low tire pressure, but does not identify which tire or how low.

Amazing car would recommend to anyone.
I love my car and it is the perfect car for me. Even the base model has so many nice features, and is so comfortable. I love the touch screen and how the controls are located closer to where your hands rest. The sport mode is great and makes the ride more fun. I recommend this car to someone who has a long commute as it is great on gas.

The color and sports mode.
Car is very comfy and I am currently getting on average 29.6 mpg which saves me money on gas. One thing I hate though is how low it is to the ground. My car has leather seats, sports mode, and hatchback. Highly suggest Mazda. I am really happy with my lease and will most likely upgrade to a newer model of my car when my lease is up.

Depend on your transportation.
I drove off the lot with my car close to the time it had been delivered to the seller. It's running. Its has had problems that was repaired by me or the company. I am going to fix the back seat. The removal of it was not did right. It had battery cable problem while I was far from home which was repaired on the spot.

Built in screen for android auto play which has GPS and voice commands built.
It's a fast car. Great for the city and long drives. The tank hold 12 gallons of gas. And gets around 25 mpg inner city and more on the highway. Decent trunk room but it doesn't replace a hatchback. The car is fairly low to the ground so be away of high sidewalks and bumps in the road.

Extra features are amazing in the Mazda 3.
I love the features that the car comes with such as the berlin and blinking lights on the side mirrors to let you know if a vehicle is beside or behind you in your blind spot. I also love the reverse screen instead of relying on overlooking my shoulder to reverse. It runs very well in all weather and the heated seats feature is amazing as well.

Mazda 3 2018 sport- great buy for the value.
Very good value for the price. Not a huge amount of power but just enough that it can be quite fun to drive. Ability to manually shift is a nice thing to play around with but not many reasons to leave it on all the time. Speaker system sounds great for a base model. Dashboard display is a wonderful addition, as well as the controls on the center console.

Best car I have ever had and driven.
The most reliable car I have ever owned and also the easiest car to operate. Gas and mileage is wonderful, I do not go through all the gas super fast like I have with my other cars. The car also drives very smoothly and I have not had any problems with it at all. For the price, the features, and the easy operation, this car is the best.

Collision detection, sports mode and built in backup camera makes this ride fun.
This years model is an upgrade from the 2016 version. It is more reliable battery allows for smoother operation of all electronic functions. The camera is of high quality and reliability. There is an issue with the windshield being rather weak and easily cracks. The sports mode does little more than give additional torque for faster acceleration. It features a collision detection which alerts driver of any potential hazards in front. It becomes less useful when the sensitivity is increased as it becomes too sensitive and detects things too far away.

Good for couple and cute and crazy.
Good for short trips with spouse. Maintenance cost is more. Not suitable for family and long trips. Very good at look wise.Easy to maintain. More fuel cost. Economically suggested to average income people. If you have a family with kid not recommendable. Go for high end.

Mazdas are a great value!
Mazdas are very affordable and reliable. The Mazda 3 hatchback is compact yet spacious. The ride is smooth and comfortable. The basic features are really all the essential ones you’d need. Aside from a few recalls, I have never had any problems with any of my Mazdas.

It is very comfortable and fast.
It would be nice if there was more room in the back. Wish I had chosen a different color because when the car sits in the sun the interior is extremely hot. The fact that it is keyless has me worried that it will cost a lot of money in the future.

Great look and comfort level, smooth to drive.
Starting problem as it automatic start without key, gives good mileage with amazing comfort level. Good look both interior and exterior with amazing features of reverse mirror, music and sound system. I have had a great experience with this car except for the starting issues at times not frequently so this is still okay with me.

This car is fast, nice looking, and very fun to drive.
It is reliable and slick. I very much love the interior especially. The black leather looks and maintains very well. The only issue is that if you live in a hot part of the country, it tends to get very hot. The car has a sport mode feature that is a lot of fun. The trunk space is not too bad either. I love the screen on the dashboard, and the fact that it is compatible with CarPlay.

The automatic break of the Mazda 6.
Excellent car. It drives smoothly, and the wheel is tight enough where you feel like you have control but not too tight where you have to put muscle in it. The automatic break is great as it stops before you come too close to hitting anything. Also every time you come near hitting a curb a light pops on notifying you.
