The Mazda CX-3 is poised to do battle in the hottest segment in the market today, the sub-compact SUV market and it has a tall order to stand against. You have the ever-versatile Honda HRV with its Magic Seats and peppy 1.8 iVTEC engine.

The best selling yet getting old in the tooth Ford Ecosport which recently got a much-needed face-lift, and the rugged and off-road capable Subaru XV, or perhaps would like to take the quirky route and go for the funky Nissan Juke and Hyundai Kona.

Does the Mazda CX-3 have what it takes to capture the hearts and minds of the market?

The large grill and slanted thin headlamps are connected by sharp angular creases around the body

You really can't fault the Mazda CX-3 for how it looks. It conforms to Mazda’s current “Kodo” design language which in Mazda-speak means “Soul of Motion”, a design inspired by the moment a sword strikes in the ancient Japanese art of Kendo.

What that means is that the design abounds with graceful yet energetic lines that complement the body of the car creating the effect of flowing water around the car’s body lines.

The large grill and slanted thin headlamps are connected by sharp angular creases around the body to the pinched rear hatch. Beautifully rendered side panels are reinforced with matte-black plastic cladding that molds into the bulging side fenders adding to its masculine yet sporty appeal.

Far from quirky designs from Hyundai and Nissan, this is but it keeps the design interesting and engaging.

2019 Mazda CX-3 – Review and Road Test

You’ve got a lone 2-liter engine mustering 148 horses to pull its svelte weight and 192 Nm of torque. On par with current offerings from other companies, I’d say.

Pair that to the only transmission option available, a 6-speed automatic with manual mode on tap, it does hinder the CX-3’s versatility a tad, but with recent testing.

 It’s been found that the transmission is willing to step down almost instantaneously when called upon to do light over-taking and climbing up hills and such.

The Mazda CX-3 gives you an air of sportiness and quality

Fuel economy is a hallmark of Mazda vehicles, thanks to their proprietary SKYACTIVE technology. This utilizes advancements to the internal combustion engine, increasing the compression ratio, ensuring a much more efficient burn during the combustion process.

The Mazda CX-3 achieves a phenomenal 8-9 km/l even in heavy, bumper to bumper traffic. Highway figures fare much better, of course, thanks to having more gears to play with thanks to that 6-Speed Automatic Transmission.

Keeping things stable are Macpherson struts in the front paired with torsion beam axle at the back. It would have been ideal if we had independent suspension all around, but the Mazda CX-3 keeps things planted in such a way that you wouldn’t even notice this disparity.

Mazda blessed the CX-3 with G-Vectoring control system, a gyroscope mechanism found also in the CX-5 that keeps the body and the cabin planted as straight as possible during hard cornering. No other Sub-compact SUV even comes close to the Mazda CX-3 in this regard.

Beautifully rendered side panels are reinforced with matte-black plastic cladding

Inside the cabin, Mazda CX-3 2019 gives you an air of sportiness and quality, thanks in part to Mazda’s minimal approach to interior design. Premium materials abound the cabin with leather and fabric inserts in just the right places and this comes standard across the variants.

A 7-inch touchscreen LCD serves as the central hub of your infotainment system. It supports Bluetooth which is always a welcome feature. What does rain on our parade though is the apparent lack of standard smartphone integration, Mazda does offer the Android Auto and Apple Carplay for a hefty fee.

Taking a gander at the CX-3 will be worth your time

The Mazda CX-3 gives a compelling proposition to car buyers in this segment. Some may argue that the price encroaches entry level Pick-up Truck-Based SUV’s or even Compact SUVs but comparing this to those segments misses the point entirely.

People looking at this market want a sub-compact vehicle that expresses their personality, myself included but in a raised platform. Hot hatch-lovers want to avoid floods too. If you’ve ever said to yourself that you wanted that new HRV or Subaru XV, maybe taking a gander at the CX-3 will be worth your time.
