2016 Mazda Mazda3 consumer reviews

I guess we are now a Mazda family. My dad's first car was Mazda GLC (back in the 80's) He currently owns a CX 5 and Now I own a Mazda 3. Mazda lives up to is name - Zoom Zoom all the way. Great CAR!!!

I finally pulled the trigger and replaced my west coast sports car for a winter-safe vehicle. I went with the Mazda3 Hatchback instead of a giant SUV because I am used to the little 2 seater and I am pleased with my decision. It doesn’t have the pickup that the 6 cylinder has but it’s still a fun ride and my puppy is thrilled to have a back seat! Way better gas mileage, room for my stuff and the ability to get somewhere in snow. I am happy!

I very recently bought this used car, and I'm very happy - Looks good with lots of bells & whistles! The only thing I would have hoped for was a radio that had buttons to set for my favorite stations. As I bounce around stations constantly, I can't just push a different button, I need to scroll down the list to change the station, which is distracting. That said, it's a minor thing - this is a great car!

This car has never let me down. I have driven it all over the U.S. so it has mostly highway miles and not local miles. Great gas mileage and has a sporty feel with the sunroof open. Also, a zippy little engine that performs well on the highway. Toyota used to be my favorite but Mazda won me over with this car.

I purchased a Pre-Owned 2016 Mazda 3 Sport with a 2.0L engine, with a few electronic options and under 18k miles. I previously had a truck with a V6 engine, and I’m impressed with the horsepower generated with the 2.0L engine. The acceleration is great as well as the safety and electronic features.

Excellent gas mileage and reliability. I never had any problems starting or driving the car. For a car with little horsepower, it keeps up with cars on the freeway and comes with all the style of an Audi or higher end vehicle.

Very quick and handling is to die for. A little road noise, but nice stereo to cover that up. Controls are easy to learn, & many features you wouldn’t expect on a car like this. Outside styling is impressive as well. Don’t test drive - you WILL buy it

This car is meeting all my needs so far, and is a very nice looking upgrade from what I used to drive. The ride is very smooth, which I love.

I am a short person, so the low lying design of the car doesn't bother me as it does some of my taller passengers, but I can't stand the blind spots when I turn to check when changing lanes. The high tech blind spot monitoring system does not do the job -- there have been several times when I thought it clear to change lanes and a car comes up from behind. I bought the car new in 2016 and love everything about the car, especially the gas mileage, but I would not buy this car again or recommend it due to the danger of the blind spots...

Love this car, just purchased Grand Touring Mazda 3. Handles great, good pickup, sleek style, comfortable leather seats. Awesome Bose stereo system and great built in navigator.
