2021 Subaru Impreza vs. 2021 Mazda 3
The 2021 Subaru Impreza has a lot of great things to offer to its avid followers. Expect a spacious, well-designed cabin inside. This also has a reliable set of infotainment features. It now comes standard with the all-wheel drive configuration too.
In the case of the 2021 Mazda 3, the ride boasts of sharp handling. It has a potent engine lineup too. It is praised by some who have seen it because of its cabin design. There is a standard four-cylinder, 2.0-liter engine waiting for you inside.
Design & Style
The 2021 Subaru Impreza knows how to impress in terms of design and style. This compact car is unexpectedly spacious inside, both in terms of cabin and cargo space. The ride starts with 20.8 cubic feet of space when all seats are being used by passengers. Fold the rear seat and it opens up to 55.3 cubic feet of floor space. Its cloth-upholstered cabin is made even more comfortable by its well-cushioned seats. Soft-touch surfaces adorn the cabin as well.
The 2021 version of the Mazda 3 is short in terms of cabin space, since the area only opens up 13.2 cubic feet when all seats are being used. Two adults will find the front seats comfortable, but the back seats are best left for three kids instead. The ride uses soft-touch materials. However, it does not really impress when compared to what you see in the Impreza.
Technology & Safety
The 2021 Subaru Impreza has an impressive technology list that will truly entertain its users during short or long trips. It has a readable 6.5-inch touch screen that is capable of responding quickly to user inputs. The ride is also gifted with physical knobs for audio and climate controls. Other features include smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth, USB port, and four speakers. There is a rearview camera forming part of the standard safety feature list. There are other available features that you will definitely watch out for.
The 2021 Mazda 3, on the other hand, counts on a simply laid out 8.8-inch touch screen display for the functions of its infotainment interface. It may have eight speakers, voice command, HD radio, Bluetooth, and two USB ports, but it failed to included Android Auto and Apple CarPlay in its standard technologies. Aside from the rearview camera, it also has automatic high-beam headlights, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, driver attention monitoring, and adaptive cruise control.
Performance
The 2021 Subaru Impreza gets its power from a four-cylinder, 2.0-liter engine that can reach up to 152 horsepower. Its counterpart in the Mazda 3 can reach a result of 155 horsepower, but this one works sluggishly at times, and generates noise when you step on the brakes.
The Bottom Line
Built solidly with the right materials from the inside to the outside, the 2021 Subaru Impreza is one great car that a family of five will love. The 2021 Mazda 3 may have some great attributes too, but it fails to topple down its Subaru counterpart.
