2012 MAZDA MAZDA3 i Sport Sedan 4D Standard Features
2012 MAZDA MAZDA3
KBB.com Review
Kbb.com Expert Rating
Great gas mileage and an enthusiast-oriented chassis are fused with a premium interior and dynamite styling to form the 2012 Mazda3 sedan and hatchback. If you thought you couldn’t have all this in a small affordable car, Mazda just proved you wrong.
If your next car must have all-wheel drive (AWD), the Subaru Impreza or Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart are better choices. Smartphones are killing in-dash (and on-windshield) navigation systems, and the Mazda3’s tiny hard to use view screen won’t convince you to ask for a reprieve.
