2019 Mazda CX-3 Goes On Sale This Month For $20,390

Mazda recently introduced the 2019 CX-3 at the New York Auto Show and now the company has revealed the updated model will be priced from $20,390.

Set to go on sale in the United States later this month, the 2019 CX-3 is $280 more expensive than its predecessor. Despite the modest price increase, the model comes with a number of improvements including redesigned front seats, a newly standard electronic parking brake and a new rear armrest with integrated cup holders. The center console and center armrest have also been redesigned and Mazda says this results in “significantly greater storage space.”

Besides the interior updates, the 2019 CX-3 has a new grille, updated taillights and restyled wheels. There’s also higher quality materials and improved sound insulation.

The entry-level CX-3 Sport comes equipped with fabric seats and a push-button ignition.

The package also adds automatic high beam headlights, a lane departure warning system, rain-sensing wipers and LED lighting units. Other notable additions include an automatic climate control system and an active driving display.
