2026 MAZDA3 Hatchback

The 2026 Mazda3 Hatchback is a compact hatchback that blends athletic driving dynamics with the cargo flexibility that Sarasota drivers need for everyday life. As the only hatchback in the Mazda lineup, it appeals to those who appreciate the fuel economy and style of a sedan but want the added utility of a rear liftgate and fold-down cargo area.


 

 


Customizing Your Sarasota Driving Experience

The 2026 Mazda3 Hatchback lineup spans six distinct configurations, starting with the 2.5 S and scaling through the 2.5 S Select Sport, 2.5 S Preferred, 2.5 S Carbon Edition, 2.5 S Premium, and the range-topping 2.5 Turbo Premium Plus. Each trim brings meaningful upgrades in comfort, technology, and performance, ensuring that Tampa drivers can find a setup that fits their local priorities and personal style perfectly.

Advanced Tech for Palmetto Commuters

Standard safety features include Blind Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Departure Warning System, and Lane-keep Assist across every trim. Inside the cabin, Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay® integration come standard, alongside Bluetooth® hands-free connectivity and an infotainment system voice command for effortless control on the go.

Versatile Interior Space for Brandon Families

The Mazda3 Hatchback seats five passengers with generous legroom and a thoughtfully designed cockpit. Up to 20.1 cubic feet of cargo space sits behind the rear seats, and the standard 60/40 split fold-down rear seatback expands your hauling options for Palmetto errands and road trips alike.

Elevate Your Ellenton Style

A low, wide stance and bold proportions give the Mazda3 Hatchback an unmistakable presence on the road. Standard LED daytime running lights and auto on/off headlights enhance visibility, while available exterior upgrades such as 18-inch alloy wheels and a power-sliding glass moonroof further elevate the design.

Performance Bradenton Drivers Expect

Two SKYACTIV® Technology engines power the lineup. Non-turbo trims produce 186 hp and 186 lb-ft of torque from a 2.5L 4-cylinder, while the 2.5 Turbo Premium Plus delivers up to 250 hp with 93 octane fuel. Front-wheel drive is standard on most trims, and i-ACTIV AWD® comes standard on the Carbon Edition and Turbo Premium Plus.
