Compact crossovers offer the versatility of a crossover with large cargo areas and ample passenger space but they offer fuel economy more in line with a sedan and feature fantastic handling. Crossovers have never been more popular so the choices can seem endless. Take a look at our 2017 Mazda CX-3 vs 2017 Nissan Juke comparison to see how these two compact crossovers compare in fuel economy, engine, interior volume and more.
The CX-3 is Mazda's entry-level offering in its crossover lineup and it debuted just last year so the 2017 model year is largely unchanged. The light curb weight and fuel-efficient engine gives the CX-3 31 mpg combined and for buyers that opt for the all-wheel drive, the CX-3 still delivers with 29 mpg combined. The 2017 Mazda CX-3 proves to be an affordable choice for buyers looking for a crossover that offers the best of both worlds.
