It may be hard to believe, but October is here and it’s time for the 2017 models of all your favorite Mazda vehicles to begin to roll onto our dealership lot. One of the first vehicles to arrive was the 2017 Mazda CX-3. If you missed this SUV’s official debut last model year, now would be a great time to get on board. The 2017 Mazda CX-3 is a stylish compact SUV with excellent fuel economy, sporty handling, and a boatload of in-cabin features, making it an excellent choice for Baltimore, MD drivers.
The first thing you’ll notice about this new Mazda SUV is just how sleek and stylish it is. The five-passenger SUV boasts the tall ride height of a crossover combined with an aerodynamic and sleek shape. It comes in three different trims -- Sport, Touring, and Grand Touring -- with the base Sport being a great choice for budget-minded buyers. This affordable trim comes standard with push-button ignition, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, Bluetooth phone and audio, a rearview camera, voice controls, and a 7-inch touchscreen interface with a rotary control knob. On the audio front, drivers are treated to a six-speaker sound system with a CD player, a USB port, an auxiliary audio jack, and Aha/Pandora/Stitcher internet radio.
Of course, moving up to the higher trims gets you even more luxuries. The top-of-the-line Grand Touring comes standard with upgraded instrumentation, a heads-up display, leather and synthetic suede upholstery, a navigation system, automatic climate control, steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters, and a seven-speaker Bose audio system with HD radio and satellite radio. Under the hood, you’ll find an efficient 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine rated at 146 horsepower and 146 lb-ft of torque.
