Miles Overview
The 2012 Mazda3 is Mazda's compact car, offered as a sedan or hatchback, and it's the one that makes the class feel a bit more fun than the rest. It's genuinely enjoyable to drive, with quick steering and a willing chassis that makes it feel zippy around town and on the highway. The cabin is well laid out and comfortable up front, though rear legroom is tight and the hatchback's cargo area is modest. Some owners mention the windshield cracking easily from small impacts and a tire pressure light that can act up, but these aren't widespread. The I Sport is the one to pick if you want Mazda's fun-to-drive character without the cost of the I Touring's extras. Its 2.0L I4 makes 148 horsepower and works with a five-speed automatic, which is fine for daily driving but not as quick as the optional six-speed manual. The I Sport comes on 16-inch steel wheels with plastic covers, so the ride is a bit softer than the I Touring's alloy-wheel setup.
