Miles Overview
The Mazda3 is a compact car offered as both a sedan and a hatchback, positioned as a more premium alternative to mainstream rivals. Its competitors include the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, and Hyundai Elantra, but the Mazda3 leans more toward upscale feel and driving fun. The Mazda3 handles corners with poise and steering that feels direct, making it one of the more engaging cars in its class. Inside, the cabin is trimmed with soft-touch materials and a clean design that rivals more expensive cars. The hatchback body offers flexible cargo space, though rear-seat room is tighter than some rivals. Leatherette seats, a power moonroof, and a power driver's seat with memory are what the Preferred adds over the S and Select Sport trims. Its 2.5L I4 makes 186 horsepower and works with a six-speed automatic for a smooth, responsive feel on the road, returning 30 mpg combined.
