If you’re looking for a compact SUV, you have a wide variety of models to choose from these days. However, if you’re searching for just the right vehicle in this class, we can help you out at Baglier Mazda.

In two very important categories – tech and safety – you can see why the Mazda CX-3 far outshines competitors like the Toyota RAV4 

Tech Standoff

The Mazda CX-3 comes with an assortment of standard tech features, including Bluetooth® connectivity, a six-speaker stereo system, Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay® integration, voice recognition, and a USB port. You will also get a very user-friendly infotainment system with a seven-inch touchscreen.

The Toyota RAV4 has many of the same features, but some critics think that its infotainment system can be a little cumbersome to use.   

Battle of the Safety Features  

The Mazda brand is synonymous with safety, and the Mazda CX-3 has numerous built-in components to keep you and your passengers safe. These include:  

  • Rear cross-traffic alert 
  • Rain-sensing windshield wipers 
  • Rearview camera 
  • Adaptive LED headlights 
  • Forward collision warning 
  • Day and night pedestrian detection  
  • Lane departure warning 
  • Blind spot monitoring 
  • Adaptive cruise control 
  • Automatic high-beam headlights  

Some of the same safety features can be found in the Toyota RAV4. However, if you want rear cross-traffic alert or blind spot monitoring, you will need to upgrade to a more expensive model.

In these two categories, it’s pretty clear that the Mazda CX-3 is the superior SUV. If you’d like to learn more about this model and everything it has to offer, come on down to Baglier Mazda in Butler. You can also get behind the wheel of this Mazda SUV for a test drive!
