When you buy the 2024 Mazda3 from Fields Mazda of Asheville, you’ll have your choice of two eye-catching body styles: sedan or hatchback. No matter which model you choose, you’ll be getting a vehicle that provides a seamless blend of cabin elegance, premium style, and exciting performance. Here is an overview of the differences between the two body styles.
Exterior Styling
The most obvious difference between these two Mazda models lies in their exterior body styles. The sedan boasts a classic three-box design with a compact trunk, while the hatchback features a contemporary two-box design with a rounded-off rear. Both embody the signature Mazda Kodo design language, but only the hood and the headlights are common between the two. The front wing fenders and the doors are uniquely tailored to complement each body style.
Despite sharing a 107.3-inch wheelbase, the sedan has an overall length of 183.5 inches, while the hatchback is more compact at 175.6 inches. An additional difference lies on the rear of the vehicle, where the hatchback features a rear spoiler and a windshield wiper, whereas the sedan does not.
Interior Design and Cargo
Another difference between these two body styles lies in their interiors. Both body styles comfortably seat five passengers and feature a standard 60/40 split fold-down rear seatback with adjustable front and rear headrests. However, the sedan offers slightly more headroom and shoulder room than the hatchback. On the other hand, the versatile hatchback features 20.1 cubic feet of cargo volume with the second-row seats up, while the sedan offers 13.2 cubic feet.
