Available in a 4-door sedan or hatchback style, the Mazda 3
is available in both the 3i and 3s models. With the 5-door hatchback option,
the Mazda3 can accommodate 5 passengers comfortably while allowing for plenty
of cargo room accessible by the hatchback. The 3i comes with a 2.0L 4-cylinder
engine while the 3s comes in the 2.5L 4-cylinder engine. The 2.5L Skyactiv-G
powered 2016 Mazda3 boasts up to a EPA-estimated 37 highway MPG without
compromising performance with 184-hp. The baseline Mazda3 i Sport model starts
at $600 less than the 2015 Mazda3. All of the 2016 Mazda3 models now come
standard with a rearview camera.
Mazda has also introduced a new Popular Equipment package for 2016 Touring models that adds an auto-dimming mirror, dual-zone climate control, Bose surround sound with nine speakers, and four months of satellite radio, all for $1100. On all trim levels higher than the baseline Mazda3i Sport, automatic headlights, automatic wipers and a sunroof come standard. Starting as low as $18,665 the Mazda3 is a truly affordable family car.
