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. Stepping to the Preferred trim gets you a power moonroof, leatherette seats, and heated front seats that the trims below leave out. Its 2.5L I4 makes 186 horsepower and pairs with a six-speed automatic that shifts cleanly, and you'll see 29 mpg combined in mixed driving.
