The exterior of the new CX-3 is almost identical to the 2018 model. However, this is no bad thing as the CX-3 remains one of the most appealing and attractive vehicles in its segment. Subtle changes include a new front grille, additional chrome accents, Piano black elements, and the addition of Crystal premium paint.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, the 2019 CX-3 gets revised LED taillights and 18-inch wheels.<\/p>\n

Most of the changes enjoyed by the 2019 CX-3 are limited to the interior. For example, an electronic parking brake has been fitted. The Japanese firm claims that this \u201callows for a significant increase in storage place.\u201d We’re not so sure about the word ‘significant’ in that statement but nevertheless, some customers may be pleased to have a new button to play with…<\/p>\n

In all seriousness, the electronic parking brake has allowed Mazda to fit an armrest and relocate the cupholders.<\/p>\n

A better engine<\/strong><\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Mazda says the CX-3 receives a refined SKYACTIV-G 2.0-liter petrol engine. This powertrain delivers 148 hp and 148 lb-ft of torque and is said to be more fuel efficient than the outgoing one. Mazda’s G-Vectoring Control is also featured, allowing for better steering.<\/p>\n

Inside, there is some extra leather in the cabin, and redesigned seats promising to offer improved support. Additional changes include suede-like material on the dashboard and door panels as well as red louver accents around the air vents. Rear seat passengers also get a center armrest with built-in cupholders.<\/p>\n

Sales of the 2019 Mazda CX-3 will start in spring 2018.<\/p>\n
