Used 2025 Mazda Mazda3 2.5 s Carbon

The Mazda 3 is a mainstream compact sedan that punches above its weight. It can almost pass for a premium-class compact, as its top trim levels boast elegantly furnished interiors lined with materials that exude a sense of luxury that rivals like the Hyundai Elantra and Honda Civic just cannot equal. Offered as a four-door sedan or a five-door hatchback, the hatch is positioned as the more upscale model of the two. Despite being several inches shorter in overall length than the sedan, the five-door costs more. Power comes from a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, either with or without a turbocharger, mated to a six-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission. However, manual gearboxes are limited to nonturbo models with front-wheel drive. All-wheel drive is offered, but only with the six-speed automatic transmission. As is the Mazda norm, the 3 delights its driver with its balance. It's fun to drive yet dispenses its agility with a comfortably smooth ride. Its elegant exterior and plush interior combine to create a delectable compact that has far more allure than you'd expect for the price.
