The 2020 Mazda CX-3: Is It Fated To Die?
We review the 2020 Mazda CX-3 and wonder about its future. Does it have one? Maybe…
The arrival of the CX-3 in the Mazda lineup for the 2016 model-year was an expected event. The fledgling sub-compact SUV segment was then absorbing quantities of new products, and the Japanese automaker was just joining the fray. What was more surprising was the model’s format.
The new CX-3 slotted in below the CX-5 – no surprise there. But Mazda gave it dimensions that placed in between the Mazda2 and the Mazda3, which led many to wonder about the actual difference between the newbie and the 3, in particular. Other than the former getting available AWD, not then possible with the 3, it offered consumers pretty much the same thing as the latter’s hatchback version.
Any difference in cargo space, for instance, was negligible. When seated inside, you’d have been hard-pressed to tell one from the other.
