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.

Loving my car so far.
This is an attractive sporty looking CUV. It's on the small side but has AWD and plenty of great features and is high in safety rankings. My insurance agent even commented about the great safety ratings. It's got great handling and is easy to drive.

Perfect sized SUV
Finally: a reasonably priced SUV: perfect in size, performance, beauty & cost ~ my only concern is the lack of a power rear hatch - difficult to find release for rear hatch.

CX3/5/9 Mazda did well!!!!!
I've owned a 2008 CX9 AWD, 2012 CX5 FWD, 2016 CX3 AWD and now a 2019 CX3 FWD. Loyal Mazda customer and just love this line. If I could afford it I would have a CX5 AWD with the special reserve package. Currently I have a 19 CX3 FWD Grand Touring with premium package and love it. Only thing I wish I would have changed is I would have kept the AWD. Mazda's AWD vehicles are amazing on snow and ice.

CX-3 Reviewed
Over all, I keep appreciating the smooth response and supurb gas mileage. Compared to Prius, this car probably gets comparable mpg and no charging charges. Thanks in kind to its Sky-Active system this vehicle coasts along at speed, providing smooth response and barely noticeable shifting, unless in sport mode and things get a little loud. I cannot understate my driving pleasure behind the steering wheel of this car. Once you get used to operating a computer stick on the center console and finger pushing ease of the interactive screen; or better yet and most appreciated, voice control, this car is a breeze to operate. Relaxing and fun combined -- my outlook from this car -- everything is up front and forward. This car reminds me of my Miata that I drive in summer. But CX-3 gas mileage is actually a tad better. That's good for a car that weighs about eight-hundred pounds more. Sadly, you can't drive Miata in winter with success you'll have with this gem, driving in all seasons and weather. My GT CX-3 with its leather seats warmed feels even better than some more expensive cars. Despite all winter has thus thrown at it, the car has handled well in all weather driving. Inside feels spacious (wide) for a sub compact car. I enjoy the gauges and configuration. The sun roof sealed the deal. What I most enjoy about CX-3 is its affordability on all levels. For pure sport performance, the entry level is more than ample -- delivering kick-the-snot -- performance that improves with higher revs. In fact, you may never properly appreciate CX-3 until you take it into sport mode, where paddles play into the equation. Then its performance closely matches a tiny rocket. GT-X-3 is the model you want if you wish everything that can be added to it, including AWD (All-wheel-drive), complete climate control and capped with a sunroof. The car becomes luxurious with those accommodations including Blue Tooth and interactive accident communication as added insurance. Add up all that package and it amounts to about half of what you might spend on an upscale car that may have less standard equipment. At this level, it performs very much as a luxury vehicle and yet leaving one dollar wise and financially ahead. Handling is one word I'd use to emphasize this car's performance. I enjoy driving compact but comfortable vehicles. CX-3 matches both for me.

Great car for the money
This car is fun to drive. It handles nicely and gives a good ride. The seats are comfy and it has plenty of rear carrying space to meet my needs. This car has a couple of issues I’m not wild about. There is little room for car seats in the rear passenger seat. Also, it is hard to see over the hood. My husband is 6’1” and even he can’t see over the hood.

Please read
Cx3 from Mazda drives nice. Somethings that usually make trips and driving easier isn’t so easy on the newest Mazda’s. The cup holders aren’t at reach and steady so if you don’t drink the night it may work out for you.. I’ve had to go back and get Zurich done cause they take 15mins and really don’t do it. I also have had a crack in the dash where the sewing is, don’t know how since I just bought it but they replaced it. The car fluid, cold is always on when I turn it on and I live in Florida! I’ve never had that problem and I always get new vehicles! Also no CD player and you control the dash by the middle.. buttons, knobs, are Above the cup holders in the middle, door storage is useless and truck smaller then a car.. You also have no privacy! Everyone can see. Seats don’t do down all the way. It has caps not rims... This car is 21,000. Cruise control is different and takes time to get use too which really you don’t. Safety is A+, back window is very small, Askedmazda for a starter, they told me to download a app! I’d recommend Hyundai Elantra! Mazda is push start with no button on the door to open, but one key whole in the passenger...
