Why it stands out

The 2017 Mazda CX-3 stands out as a small crossover that was designed to bring Mazda’s sporty character into a compact, city-friendly package. It was Mazda’s second subcompact SUV, and it did not immediately replace the smaller CX-3 that had been around since 2016. For buyers, that means the CX-3’s appeal was rooted in its size and its role as an accessible entry point into Mazda’s crossover range.

What made it distinctive was the way Mazda equipped it from the start. The GX trim included 16-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, keyless entry, and an 8.8-inch infotainment screen running Mazda Connect software with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It also came with the 2.0-litre engine and was offered with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. Higher trims added more comfort and convenience, including dual-zone automatic climate control, rear air vents, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, available leatherette upholstery, a power moonroof, and, on the GT, features such as a Bose 12-speaker audio system, a head-up display, leather seats, a power liftgate, and LED Signature illumination headlights and taillights.

The 2017 Mazda CX-3 also had a strong safety and efficiency story for its class. Its available safety and driver-assistance features included adaptive cruise control with stop and go, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, and a driver attention alert. Fuel economy for the 2020 Mazda CX-30 was listed as low as 8.1 L/100 km combined with the smaller engine and front-wheel drive, though the CX-3 itself is also described as having a cramped back seat and not much cargo space, so practicality was not its strongest suit.
