2014 Mazda Mazda3 Customer Reviews

Pros

• Fuel Economy

  best fuel economy in any vehicle ive come across. only cost about 40 to fill up from E in california. averaging 33.2 mpg.

• Ride and Handling

  everyones thats rode in it says its very comfortable and very smooth. i agree. the handling is amazing as well. easy to turn and fits it smaller spaces.

• Cost to Maintain

  pretty easy to maintain. cost of maintenance is pretty low.

Cons

• Cost to Maintain

  quite loud in the cab but not unbearable. could be better.

• Interior Space

  a small vehicle so small interior space is expected. especially in the back. with people in driver and passenger seat. its not so comfortable in the back. the only downside to this vehicle i believe.

Pros

• Reliability

  I’m never worried it won’t get me where I need to be.

• Fuel Economy

  in this economy, it is a huge plus to not spend a fortune each week getting fuel

• Interior Space

  it is a small car with a roomy interior

Cons

• Weather Versatility

  it is light weight and not all wheel drive

Pros

• Fuel Economy

  It gets great mileage - and you can use the info button to scroll through details about your current or average mpg - or see how many more miles you can keep going on the current tank.

• Cargo Space

  Rear seats, and the cover for the way back offer lots of options for managing cargo. For a little car there's a lot of room!

• Technology and Entertainment

  Great sound! Great GPS - the display is large and easy to see yet not in the way. It automatically zooms and recedes and provides detail about gas and roadside amenities.

Cons

Pros

• Ride and Handling

  Drives like a dream. Love that pickup!

• Cargo Space

  WOWWWWWW

• Styling

  Looks good bruh!

Cons

• Technology and Entertainment

  Wish it had a more updated infotainment system, but hey it's a 2014 and I got a great deal on it. Wish my Android Auto worked on "older" cars so my phone/bluetooth would display on the screen (rather than having to use my phone directly), but I can definitely live without the most updated fancy entertainment system in my car.

• Styling

  I suppose I wish my car had darker seat fabric to avoid stains, but I can get some seat covers to do the trick.

Pros

  30+mpg

Cons

  not the best in snow..it's made light for the fuel economy.. worth the trade off.

Cons

Pros

• Ride and Handling

  Very comfortable with decent steering feel.

• Interior Space

  Feels like a much larger car inside.

  A lot of features loaded into a relatively inexpensive vehicle.

Cons

• Braking

  Feedback through the pedal feels vague and you often have to apply more brake pressure than you might think to get the car slowed from higher speeds.
