Compact sedans are easier to park in crowded lots and exude adult sophistication. Two top sellers are the 2025 Mazda3 and the 2025 Toyota Corolla. Both seem similarly sleek and well-designed at first glance, which you should overlook. Instead, compare their features in the following table and the Mazda3 comes out on top.
The 2025 Mazda3 gives you more of what you want in a car, such as greater performance at 250 horsepower and higher ground clearance of 5.5 inches. You’ll carry more with a greater cargo volume of 13.2 cubic feet. When you opt for the highest trim level, you’re rewarded with a 12-speaker premium audio system.
