Pre-Owned Mazda CX-3 vs. 2019 Mazda CX-3
Mazda is back this year with an all-new and exciting CX-3. The Mazda CX-3 has always been an attractive and reliable SUV, but the manufacturer has continued to improve on the styling and the performance year after year. That has accumulated in the 2019 model, which offers the best of the CX-3. Whether you want to lease or finance on your own, now is a great take advantage of some excellent offers.
You can still find a great deal on a pre-owned Mazda CX-3, but you may want to consider financing or leasing a 2019 model instead. Here’s a look at what’s different in the 2019 Mazda CX-3 compared to pre-owned models:
EXTERIOR
The 2019 Mazda CX-3 has gotten some exterior styling upgrades. The sleek SUV looks as great as ever, but it has a few more accents that make it look bolder and help it to stand out even more. In particular, the grille now has 11 bars instead of just seven, creating a more eye-catching look. Chrome accents underscore the grille on the lower bumper, and the fog lamps are surrounded by a piano-black casing with a shiny finish. You’ll see that same finish echoed on the side pillars, as well as the chrome accents from the bumper on the lower doors.
Overall, the new CX-3 looks like a more grown-up version of its previous self. You can see the same look and personality in the CX-3, but you can see many more details that create a more sophisticated impression.
INTERIOR
The Mazda CX-3 has always been a budget-friendly car. That’s why you can find so many great options for a pre-owned Mazda CX-3 that you can easily afford. Even if you are looking to buy or lease a 2019 model, you can find terms that will make the CX-3 affordable for you.
This year, the CX-3 is introducing some more luxury features, even while staying true to its affordable roots. You can now get full-leather seating by upgrading to the highest trim level in the 2019 model. The seating is accented by pleated piping and contrast stitching for an attractive look. The seats are also wider and firmer so that all passengers are more comfortable for wherever you’re headed.
Other upgrades for the 2019 model year include faux suede trim and body-color accents on the interior. The console has been redesigned so that there is an electronic parking brake instead of a hand brake, an integrated armrest, and more storage space. The changes make the space more comfortable and practical for the driver and the front passenger. The rear console also has built-in cupholders now.
You’ll find plenty of great features in pre-owned Mazda CX-3s, but these changes will improve your experience in the 2019 model.
UNDER THE HOOD
You’ll get the same great engine in the Mazda CX-3 as in the previous model, but it has been returned so that it provides a little more power. The 2019 Mazda CX-3 has a 2.0-liter engine that puts out 148 horsepower and 148 lb-ft of torque. Not only will you get more torque, which will make the drive feel more powerful, but you’ll also get more torque no matter what RPM you are at, ensuring that you get consistent performance. The retuned engine also delivers better fuel economy and reduces the amount of internal friction for fewer repairs.
Another upgrade under the hood is the G-Vectoring Control technology. The GVC technology controls chassis dynamics through engine timing, ensuring that you get more responsive steering and a smoother ride.
You’ll enjoy great performance in a pre-owned Mazda CX-3, as well, but you’ll definitely enjoy the most powerful and most capable ride in the 2019 model. Things almost always improve with time and advanced technology, and that proves to be the case in the performance offered by the new CX-3.
TECHNOLOGY
Most of the changes for the 2019 Mazda CX-3 are focused on the styling and performance. You’re going to find essentially the same great technology features that Mazda has offered for the past few years, such as an infotainment system with backup camera, a great sound system, and smart-phone streaming.
If you are looking at older, pre-owned Mazda CX-3 models, you may not find some of these more modern features. However, you can be sure that Mazda always delivers with some of the best comfort and convenience features for the year in which the model was released. Just know that if you want the best of the best, you’ll need to look at the 2019 model to get all the bells and whistles you want.
SAFETY
Mazda has always been known for creating safe cars that you’ll feel comfortable driving your whole family in, no matter where you need to go. The 2019 Mazda CX-3 is outfitted with a full suite of airbags and all of Mazda’s most current safety technology. You get even more options when you upgrade the trim level, helping you to avoid collisions through more cameras and more warnings.
Pre-owned models are built safely, but they don’t benefit from all the technology we have available now. They are built sturdy, and they come with airbags and other features to protect you and your family in case of an accident. You’ll just get much more when you opt for the latest model.
