How Does the Design of the 2018 Mazda CX-3 Compare to the 2018 Toyota RAV4?

The exterior designs of the new 2018 Mazda CX-3 and the 2018 Toyota RAV4 offer very different impressions. While the Toyota small SUV goes bold with sharp lines that look like they belong in the latest street-racing movie, the new 2018 Mazda CX-3 offers a clean, refined, and cultivated look that is sure to impress even the staunchest critics. Of course, there's more than looks to consider when choosing your next new small SUV. You may have noticed that the new Mazda CX-3 comes with a far more affordable price tag than the Toyota RAV4, but what do you get for your money? Aluminum alloy wheels are standard on the Mazda CX-3, but you'll have to pay more for alloy wheels on the Toyota. You'll also get a larger touchscreen, integrated telematics with automatic emergency 911 notification, and push-button start as standard equipment in the Mazda small SUV. These features and others will cost even more as upgrades on higher trim levels in the new Toyota RAV4. When you look at the facts, there's no doubt that the new Mazda CX-3 is designed to give you much more for your money.

How Does the Performance of the 2018 Mazda CX-3 Compare to the 2018 Toyota RAV4?

When you look at the performance numbers for the exciting new 2018 Mazda CX-3 and the 2018 Toyota RAV4, it may seem like the Toyota is more powerful. However, an extra 30 horsepower isn't much for a vehicle that carries around an additional 650 pounds. While additional weight makes the small SUV from Toyota less responsive at the throttle, it also makes it far less efficient than the new Mazda CX-3. You'll enjoy up to an impressive 34 MPG behind the wheel of the new Mazda small SUV compared to just 29 in the Toyota RAV4. Combine this superior efficiency to the far more affordable price tag, and you're getting a lot more performance for the money when you choose the new Mazda CX-3. In fact, the price difference is so significant, that you can get a top-of-the-line Mazda CX-3 for a similar price as a base model Toyota RAV4. Whether it's your budget or excitement behind the wheel, you'll enjoy more performance from the new 2018 Mazda CX-3.

How Does the Safety of the 2018 Mazda CX-3 Compare to the 2018 Toyota RAV4?

Safety on today's roads is perhaps the most important part of choosing your next new small SUV, and we again see that you get a lot more for the money in a new Mazda CX-3. The folks over at the Toyota dealership will want to brag about the standard driver assist technology that comes with the new Toyota RAV4. However, they won't want to say much about the similar technology that's available with the new Mazda CX-3. The difference is that engineers at Mazda believe you should have the choice of whether to pay for driver assist technology. If technology like Smart City Brake Support®, i-ACTIVSENSE®, and more is something that will make you feel more comfortable behind the wheel, you can get a new Mazda CX-3 loaded with such driver assist technology and still spend less than you would for a base model Toyota RAV4. Come see us for a test drive to learn more of the safety advantages that come with a new Mazda small SUV.
