I could not be more pleased with my Mazda 3. The quality is as good as any “premier” marque, the style and design are without peer, and this car has a quick and solid attitude. The Mazda 3 reminds me of another “3” series from about 20 years ago-before they lost their way. I recommend this vehicle to all my “car” friends. The best value in the sedan market today!

Absolutely love this vehicle, I have owned over 7 vehicles and working at a dealer I get to test drive many brands and models. Mazda 3 hatchback I own it’s right there, I honestly have not find anything to complain about, just perhaps not going for the Turbo model (I own the S with Select package).

2024 Mazda 3 2.5 S Premium 4dr Hatchback (2.5L 4cyl 6M)
2 of 3 people found this review helpful

Purchased Platinum Quartz 6 speed manual Premium Hatchback in mid -June 2024. Live in coastal Maine where driving the 6 spd on predominantly country roads is a real joy. Great, flat cornering, good comfort/handling balance and much more quiet on highway than Civic Hatch. A little tire impact harshness on bad roads will be improved by a more premium tire(Contis) than the mediocre OE Toyos. Took an 1800 mile road trip loaded for camping and air bnb'ing...plenty of space. Have averaged 41.17 mpg for 3100 miles...and this included hours in stop and go commuting traffic around Toronto, CAN. Country driving 43-44mpg! Seat memory settings for the 2(6'4"; 5'4") drivers is sweet! The paint color really compliments the hatchback shape. Last chance to shift-your-own fun to drive efficient hatch!

It’s ok but with issues.

The vehicle as a whole, decent. The issues I am experiencing are the door seals that run across the top of the front doors started to sag. Brought car to dealership to fix the issue and it was fine for about a year. Seals started sagging again and are now getting hung up on the rear door seals and causing the front doors to stick when opening. The paint is also very thin and is easily subject to chipping from the smallest particle of road debris. I’m rather disappointed that I bought this car. Probably will not be buying another Mazda if these issues continue after warranty runs out.

This car is simply fabulous in the premium plus trim, great power, and great comfort and convenience. Well worth the money....still awesome after 5000 miles.
