2018 MAZDA CX-3: MAZDA CELEBRATES 50 YEARS

Since the Mazda CX-3 first arrived just a few short years ago, it’s taken the compact crossover market by storm with its drivability, overall good looks, and interior comfort and style. The Mazda CX-3 has always boasted superior handling, gorgeous exterior design, and practicality. And this latest model sticks to all that and more

The 2018 Mazda CX-3 remains largely unchanged from the previous year, which is definitely not a bad thing. However, this is a very special edition now available as Mazda celebrates 50 years being in Canada.

To help celebrate Mazda’s 50thAnniversary, a special edition 2018 Mazda CX-3 is now available. On top of all the already amazing features found in Mazda’s compact crossover, this CX-3 50th also comes equipped with a specially tune Bose stereo system, leatherette-trimmed upholstery, advanced keyless entry system, and standard i-ACTIV AWD.

The regular 2018 Mazda CX-3 is just as appealing with its long list of features and amenities. It doesn’t matter which CX-3 model you decide to drive home with, you’re going to get their fabulous SKYACTIV-G 2.0L 4-cylinder engine that’s good for 146 horsepower and the same amount of torque. There are two drivetrain options: FWD and AWD, which are optional for all trim levels. However, only the base FWD GX can be paired with a 6-speed manual, the other trims only have the SKYACTIV-Drive 6-speed automatic.

Step inside the 2018 Mazda CX-3 and you will discover a well-appointed and comfortable space. Mazda’s onboard MAZDA CONNECT system is easy to use. Features such as satellite radio, Bluetooth capability, voice recognition, and navigation are standard. HD Radio, aha, Stitcher is available, and your CX-3 can even read your text messages out to you if you so desire.

Safety features on the 2018 Mazda CX-3 include available Smart City Brake System that detects objects and/or cars in front and will give a warning then apply the brakes if need be to prevent a collision.
