1 / 6
2018 Mazda Mazda3
Best first car
PROS
Ride and Handling
The handling of the car is fantastic. Nimble and fast, handles the roads of Ottawa greatly, and is just a fun car to drive.
Seat Comfort
The seats are very nice and comfortable. The cabin noise can be a bit loud, but all entirely manageable.
Technology and Entertainment
The infotainment system is slightly outdated (given that it is a 2018 model, makes sense that it would be outdated in todays standards) but overall, the safety features like the collision detection, ABS, sensors and whatnot are all handy when having this vehicle. Because it is my first car, I really enjoy being able to know nearly precisely what is going on under the hood.
Interior Space
I like having a small car. I'm not planning to be driving my entire family in one go, so I enjoy having a smaller car. The trunk has lots of space as well and, given that the backseats can fold down, even more space can be made available.
Value
I found the value to be ever so slightly inflated, but given its condition, and milage, it does make sense for the value.
Fuel Economy
Overall, I have found that the car is decently fuel efficient. I do think it is slightly overzealous about how many kilometres it has compared to the fuel level but overall, it is very accurate. Given my current driving habits, I only have to refill the car every 2 weeks or so, just slightly after half a tank.
Styling
It's a simple car, but as my first ever car, I don't think I need all sorts of bells and whistles for a first time personal vehicle. The car just looks nice as well. I can't really describe it.
Reliability
The cars maintenance is good given the price point. I haven't had issues with the vehicle other than after picking up the car, there were some issues with the breaks. Shortly learning that the incorrect break disc was fitted to the car which caused it to make noise. After getting that replaced, the car runs well.
CONS
Seat Comfort
Previously mentioned, the cabin noise can be a little much at times, but its survivable.
Technology and Entertainment
infotainment is a bit old, but better than nothing.
Value
Like I mentioned in the previous "Pros" section, I do think that the cost of the vehicle against the market was slightly above what it should have been, but given the state of the car, low mileage and whatnot, it does slightly redeem itself in that way.
Fuel Economy
Fuel efficiency isn't perfect, but enough where it'll last me for 2 weeks on one fill, and it going to half a tank before refilling.

The lines are clean and attractive.
