Captivating Exterior

When it comes to the Mazda3, the proof is in the details. A variety of cultivated elements makes a big difference while allowing you to express yourself. Often, the first aspect of a vehicle to capture attention is its exterior paint color. Choose from a palette of eight shades, including:

• Snowflake White
• Machine Gray
• Soul Red Crystal
• Platinum Quartz
• Deep Crystal Blue
• Jet Black

Beyond its hue, the Mazda3’s exterior continues to impress with its front grille and standard 16-inch alloy wheels. Available accents like Black Metallic alloy wheels and Black side mirrors entice you to take a walk on the dark side. Not to worry, its LED headlights, daytime running lights, and combination taillights will ensure you’re not left in the dark, helping you see and be seen at all times.

Sophisticated Interior

The Mazda3’s driver-centric cockpit is designed with the human body in mind and puts you, quite literally, in the lap of luxury. Upholstery options include cloth-, leatherette-, or leather-trimmed sport seats in distinctive shades like Greige, Black, and Red. The Multifunction Commander control keeps everything at your fingertips while Push Button Start makes take-off instantaneous.

Available features like the 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with 2-position memory and dual-zone automatic climate control system up the ante in the comfort department. Speaking of comfort, everyone on board will be able to stretch out in the Mazda3 thanks to its spacious interior:

Have luggage, a laptop, or some golf clubs to stow in the trunk? Even with all seats upright and occupied, the Mazda3 provides 13.2 cubic feet of cargo volume.

Powerful Performance

In the Mazda3, you’ll have access to up to 250 horsepower (HP) depending on which of its two engines you choose. Both powertrains pair with a Skyactiv®-Drive 6-speed electronically controlled sport automatic transmission.

The Mazda3 comes standard with front-wheel drive (FWD) and makes available i-Activ AWD® (all-wheel drive) that sends torque to the wheels with the most grip to optimize traction in any weather or road conditions. Additionally, G-Vectoring Control Plus adjusts the torque and braking to deliver a seamless drive.

Efficient Engines

You’re certain to enjoy driving the Mazda3 and will want to know that you can keep the party going without making frequent pit stops. All trims of the Mazda3 yield impressive fuel efficiency, varying just ever-so-slightly among its five trims.

Aiding your vehicle’s fuel economy is Mazda’s innovative and fully integrated Skyactiv® technology. It helps the engine, transmission, and body of your vehicle work cooperatively. The result? Optimal performance and effortless handling without compromising efficiency.

Innovative Infotainment

Maintaining connectivity is a primary desire for us all, and that need for relationship continues even when you’re traveling. The Mazda3 equips a full complement of features to keep you connected to your contacts and provide easy access to your apps, maps, and playlists:

Of course, the most important technologies are those that help protect you and everyone else on board. The Mazda3’s i-Activsense® suite of standard and available safety features serves as that extra set of eyes to help you avoid or mitigate collisions. These systems include:
