2021 Mazda CX-3
Mazda CX-3
Overview: Was the Mazda CX-3 a Good Crossover?
Slotting below the CX-5 as Mazda’s entry-level SUV, the subcompact CX-3 debuted for 2016 with sporty handling and premium furnishings relative to its modest size. Efficient four-cylinder power, engaging road manners, and an upscale cabin deliver driving joy for those not needing expansive space. Discontinued after the 2021 model year in the U.S. market, the stylish CX-3 left a legacy of providing a taste of Mazda’s signature zoom-zoom character to buyers on a budget. Shoppers sacrificing utility for performance will find excellent value in a used Mazda CX-3. Bargain Mazda CX-3 prices and the automaker’s reputation for reliability make it an affordable way to join the crossover ranks.
Note: Equipment, features, and trims can vary by model year. Always confirm these details when looking for used Mazda CX-3 cars for sale.

Key Features
The Mazda CX-3 offered:
- Subcompact crossover SUV body style
- 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine
- Six-speed automatic transmission
- Front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive
Trims
Mazda CX-3 trims range from the base Sport to the mid-range Touring and top-tier Grand Touring. For 2020 and 2021, Mazda offered the CX-3 only in the Sport trim.
Comfort, Technology & Cargo
Front-seat occupants will find ample comfort and supportive seating. However, the CX-3’s diminutive size means a tight second row and modest cargo room. The CX-3 features Mazda Connect infotainment and available driver-assist aids.
How It Drives
The Skyactiv four-cylinder engine delivers willing but not overwhelming acceleration and excellent fuel economy (up to 34 mpg). Where this crossover shines is crisp handling and confident road manners, especially when equipped with all-wheel drive. The CX-3 is ideal for weekend adventures, grocery getting, and daily commutes.
Safety
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gives the Mazda CX-3 a five-star overall safety rating. However, the agency issued an advisory that side impact protection may be insufficient for rear seat passengers.
Reviews
According to Kelley Blue Book, Mazda CX-3 reviews averaged 4.5 (out of 5.0). Owners cited reliability, value, and styling as the CX-3’s best qualities.

FAQs
Is a Mazda CX-3 a reliable car?
Yes, the CX-3 is a dependable used car purchase. Few trouble reports are on file with NHTSA or carcomplaints.com.
Why was the Mazda CX-3 discontinued?
Mazda ended CX-3 sales after the 2021 model year, replacing the model with the slightly larger CX-30. Likely reasons include declining interest in tiny crossovers and the CX-3’s cramped packaging.
Is it worth buying a Mazda CX-3?
Yes, for the right buyer. Shoppers focused on driving dynamics will enjoy a used CX-3 over other pint-sized crossovers. However, tight interior space limits practicality compared to larger rivals.
Is the Mazda CX-3 or CX-30 bigger?
The Mazda CX-30 offers more interior and cargo volume since it slots in size between the CX-3 and CX-5. Other small Mazdas include the Mazda2, Mazda3, and MX-5 Miata. The Mazda6 is a midsize sedan.
