Mazda CX-3

The Mazda CX-3 is Mazda's answer to the increasingly popular crossover segment - a reasonably compact hatchback-style car with a raised ride height. It continues the usage of Mazda's KODO design language with aggressive, modern styling and comes in a handful of different versions, each with the 2.0L SKYACTIV engine. The top of the range models have AWD while the other two variants make do with sending the power through the front wheels. It's similar in size to the Mazda 3 hatchback but will appeal to drivers who are looking for a slightly higher ride. Those searching for something a little more roomy should check out the CX-5.
