Why it stands out

The 2016 Mazda CX-3 stands out as Mazda’s second subcompact SUV and as the smaller crossover that was already on sale before the CX-30 arrived. In Canada, it was introduced in 2016 and later discontinued after the 2022 model year, which gives it a clear place in Mazda’s crossover history. For buyers, its appeal was tied to Mazda’s familiar focus on a sporty driving experience and a premium-feeling cabin, while the available safety and driver-assistance equipment helped broaden its everyday usefulness.

At launch, the CX-3 was offered with a 2.0-litre four-cylinder Skyactiv-G engine producing 155 hp and 150 lb-ft of torque. The buying guide also notes that used CX-3 pricing starts at about $15,000 in Canada, with at least $20,000 recommended for one with fewer than 100,000 kilometres. Its main drawbacks were also straightforward: the rear seat is cramped and cargo space is limited, so it suits buyers who value compact size and Mazda character more than outright practicality.
