Following in the footsteps of larger Mazda SUVs the CX-3 offers great performance and value.  It features a taller profile than most others in it's class, which provides more of a real SUV feel, rather than a slightly larger compact car.  The zippy 2.0 liter 4-cylinder engine provides plenty of pep, along with a very efficient 29 mpg in the city.  The suspension and handling gives a great nearly sports car-like feel. 

Safety options available on the CX-3 that aren't available on most competitors include blind-spot monitoring and lane-departure warning, while a backup camera is standard.  There is plenty of cargo space, with nearly 15 cubic feet with all of the seats in place, and over 44 cubic feat with the rear seats folded down.
