Overview

The Mazda3 is a compact sedan, with a hatchback body style also sold in the UAE. It uses Mazda's KODO design language, 2.0L Skyactiv-G petrol power, a 4-wheel independent suspension and optional i-Activsense driver aids.

Pros

  • Award-winning KODO design
  • Sedan starts at AED 79,000
  • Choice of sedan or hatchback body
  • Manual or automatic transmission available
  • Wide colour palette (9 hatchback, 11 sedan)

Cons

  • Hatchback costs considerably more (from AED 110,000)
  • Power, economy and cargo figures are not published on the official UAE pages
  • Warranty terms are not shown on the model pages
  • i-Activsense is only 'available', so it may not be standard on the base trim

SWOT

Strengths

  • Distinctive, award-winning design
  • Engaging handling from a 4-wheel independent suspension
  • Established Galadari dealer and service network across the UAE

Weaknesses

  • No official power, torque or fuel economy figures on the UAE pages
  • Safety tech is optional rather than standard
  • Hatchback pricing is much higher than the sedan

Opportunities

  • Current Special Offers and Owner Offers are listed on the Mazda UAE site
  • Leasing and fleet options are available through Mazda UAE

Threats

  • Many rival compact sedans and crossovers compete at similar prices
  • Mazda's own CX-30 and CX-3 crossovers start at AED 95,000 and AED 79,000 and may draw buyers away
