Car leasing: the 2016 Mazda 3
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2016 Mazda 3; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars is not a leasing company. You can rent month to month and stop at the end of any booking. This page sets out the 2016 Mazda 3 for buyers, in plain words.
What to check on the 3
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
Reading the spec sheet
It runs the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Fuel use is rated 7.1 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 21 litres. Expect about $11.01 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Room inside
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. In plain terms, its 623 litres of luggage space hold bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Who it is for
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
Rent it for a week first
If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Drive the 3 on your commute before you commit to it. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
What it costs to run
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $110.10 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.01 in fuel.
Year and trim
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2016 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Let us know
A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
Rent it for a week before you buy
