The 2026 Mazda3 is offered in two distinct body styles, each bringing the brand’s sharp handling and refined design to different kinds of drivers. The 2026 Mazda3 Sedan leans into sophistication and smooth daily driving, while the Mazda3 Hatchback delivers practical utility and athletic edge. Green Mazda is covering what sets each model apart and what features they share.
Sleek Proportions and Rear-Seat Comfort: The 2026 MAZDA3 Sedan
The 2026 Mazda3 Sedan offers the longer profile of the two at 183.5 inches, giving it a more traditional silhouette and roomier feel for rear passengers. Its tapered design improves rearward visibility, which comes in handy during highway merges and tight parking. The trunk holds 13.2 cubic feet, ideal for day-to-day needs. Preferred trims upgrade the cabin with available Greige leatherette and dual-zone climate control for elevated refinement.
Compact Size, Big Versatility: The 2026 MAZDA3 Hatchback
At just 175.6 inches long, the Mazda3 Hatchback is easy to maneuver around tight city streets or narrow driveways. Open the liftgate to access 20.1 cubic feet of space—enough for gear, groceries, or luggage. Folding the rear seats unlocks 47.1 cubic feet for bulkier hauls. Exclusive to the hatchback is the 2.5 S Premium trim with a six-speed manual transmission, combining sporty feel with everyday utility.
What They Share: Performance and Innovation
No matter the body style, the 2026 Mazda3 features a responsive 2.5-liter SKYACTIV®-G engine that delivers 186 horsepower with available turbocharged performance on select trims. Both versions offer available all-wheel drive and advanced driver-assistance features through the i-Activsense® suite. Wireless smartphone integration and the Mazda Connect™ infotainment system come standard, making every commute easier and more connected.
