Somewhere at the corner of innovation and practicality sits a sedan that covers all grounds. Some may say it’s all in the name, but true automotive experts know that’s simply not the case. When it comes to understanding what car shoppers want the most, few brands actually get it right. For those that do, there are sure to be a plethora of loyal consumers waiting outside their doors. So the duel begins between the 2017 Mazda Mazda3 vs 2017 Honda Civic.
For two sedans that offer as much as these two do, it’s amazing that they both start out at under $20,000. Sure, Mazda and Honda could probably get away with charging a bit more given their reputations, but value is a high commodity in the auto business. You might think that the Mazda3, which has a lower MSRP, has less to offer than the Civic, but you’d be wrong. Just take a look at the comparisons below.
