Those looking to purchase our iconic 2022 Mazda3 might run into a tough decision when it comes to the two major body styles available: the 2022 Mazda3 Sedan and Mazda3 Hatchback. While these two models share a ton of features, there are some big differences in terms of performance and design that separate these cars into two distinct categories. To help you better compare the two, our team at Medlin Mazda has crafted this short guide.

Shape And Cargo Space

The biggest differences between these two 2022 Mazda models are their body shape and the amount of space each provides. The 2022 Mazda3 Hatchback is larger, consisting of two major sections with a wide-open cargo hold for your valuables and gear. On the other hand, the 2022 Mazda3 Sedan is split into three sections for a slimmer design that doesn’t quite have the amount of space as the Hatchback does.

You’ll only get about 13.2 cubic feet of cargo space with the Mazda3 Sedan, while the Mazda3 Hatchback expands this storage to an impressive 20.1 cubic feet of space. Those looking to carry just the essentials with them might be more suited to the Mazda sedan, while those looking for frequent weekend trips should take a look at the hatchback model.

Performance Comparison

Another major difference between these new Mazda vehicles is the powertrain in the base models. The Mazda3 Sedan comes standard with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine capable of pumping out 155 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque, while the Mazda3 Hatchback impresses with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with VVT that can produce 186 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque. If you’re looking for performance above all else, the 2022 Mazda3 Hatchback is for you.
