Yes the CX 3 is a car disguised as an SUV. I previously drove a 2013 Dodge Dart SXT and the list of ways the the CX 3 out performs the Dart is endless. Mazda is a Japanese company but you would never know by driving the CX 3. The CX 3 drives closer to an Audi A4 or BMW 3 Series than a Honda or Toyota but is priced closer to Honda or Toyota. Keep up the good work Mazda.

I own a 2017 CX-3 Grand Touring. With the exception of an amazingly annoying center armrest that squeaks, the little CUV is amazing. Performance wise, it has more than ample pick up, and borders on too much power for such a small frame. The ride is good, nice and stiff. The interior is nothing less than artwork. The seats are comfortable, and I installed Google Play, as I wanted more than the OEM system could give. The car is small, and you do sacrifice back seat and boot space for the "impossible not to look at" curves. With research, I knew that going into it. I am a single, and carry few passengers. So, that's no concern for me. The back can more than adaquately accommodate one adult, or two small children (human or furry) comfortably. All in all, from my perspective, Mazda is still creating 'zoom-zoom'. I'm not sure what all these other folks have been driving.
