# Mazda CX-3

Model years 2018–2021

The Mazda CX-3 is an SUV or crossover nameplate from Mazda, designed for passenger comfort, cargo utility and everyday driving. Across its model years, powertrain, drivetrain, passenger space, cargo capacity, towing capability and equipment can vary substantially. Shoppers should compare the exact year and trim because specifications, features, recalls, known problems and ownership costs can change over time.
