So far so good!

It is really fitting my needs and in a beautiful package with great gas milage! A couple minor things I noticed are that the navigation system is not as nice as the Waze app where it will direct me on a path that has the least traffic or if a road is closed, Waze won't try to make me take that way. Also, I can not guarantee the speed limit it shows me is up to date.

Great car small size

I'm 5 feet tall and cars tend to be too big. Not my Mazda CX3! It's luxury, comfort, fun to drive. And, I get tons of compliments on it!

Efficient and Handles Great

Bought this car from Herzog-Meier for my wife and she loves it. I like the efficiency and handling of this car. Just passed the 5k mark and look forward to years with this car.

Has a signifant glitch .

After deceleration it cuts off throttle function (goes dead) until you lift completely off the gas and return, where normal function returns. This happens at any speed (20 mph thru 70 an the freeway.)

Awesome little car/Suv

This car is truly a dream come true to drive, drives and has the built quality of a BMW for a fraction of the cost. I have only had a few days but its comfy and suits my needs.

Feeling very safe. Sturdy on the road. Comfortable

The car is comfortable. Drives well in the rain on the interstate at 65 - 70 miles per hour. Great gas mileage. Well insulated. Luxurious and comfortable. Seats very accommodating for back and leg support for long ride

Absolutely ecstatic

So first, I want everyone to understand I'm comparing from the view point of 2006 Sentra to a 2019 cx-3. This car is exactly what I wanted and effortlessly/instantly met all my needs. There are a lot of reviews online that say the car is to slow or the car is to small or the backseat doesnt have enough room etc etc etc. This car, in my opinion, is the perfect size for someone who is a car person but wants an SUV. The awd is very noticable when accelerating (again this is coming from someone who has never had an awd vehicle). The ride of the vehicle is very smooth contrary to how "stiff" the vehicle is as told by online reviews. The vehicle is just comfortable, that's the best way for me to put it. It doesnt take effort to maneuver this vehicle at all. All in all I am very very happy with my purchase. Again these are all my personal opinions and others may not agree. At the end of the day go test drive one and make the call yourself but I think you see what I'm saying when I say this is an amazing vehicle.
