Hi guys, i'm planning to buy new car and looking for suv. I dont know which one better either Mazda Cx3 or Honda HRV. Can you guys give me some opinion regarding both cars and which one much more worth it. I used myvi for 9 years and now planning to change to new car. So i'm the type will use the car for a long2 time before by new one.

Mazda CX3

HRV is spacious and overall is practical. CX3 is a performance car but interior space is smaller. maintenance wise, of course Honda has cheaper spare parts, CX3 is CBU so the spare parts also expensive.

very depending on what you want and need. if it's for family used, go for HRV, if it's for the driving experience, go for CX3.

i would recommend CRV but it's fugly
while CX3 is impractical and small

might as well wait for X50 next year

Err nope.

Anyway TS, HRV is a practical family car whereas CX3 is more of a lifestyle car - people buy it for the design and driving pleasure and less about the practicality. Just sit in the rear seats of both cars and you'll see what I mean.

Single = CX3
Family and need fit 4 get sedan better. More comfort ride.

Just go take a test drive. Salesman definitely want to sell you cars so just visit them and have a look for yourself.

Like the other guy mentioned above, sit in the rear passenger seat of each car so you know how your passengers feel.

Can't bring my parents in CX3. Definitely will complain.

If you can wait longer, CX30 is likely going to be brought into Malaysia next year.. but might also come with a hefty price increase since that seems to be what Mazda is heading towards.

For the price why don't X70? Good future family car also

there is alot more options ,, like X70 , borgward BX5 , nissan kicks and future proton X50 and perodua D58L/ D55L

Mostly my work need me to travel a lot. Weekdays KL-SEREMBAN-KL. Looks like on fuel wise CX3 much save. Currently single and all i have just took my parents for makan2 or visiting relative.

want to wait for X50 but too long, just got into accident last week and really need car to move around.

I'm currently single and the only family members will ride in my car are my parents. But my job more likely to meet people and need to have a good first impressions. Before this always put my car far away before met someone LOL.


I'm between single and family LOL

since u r single work need to meet people
get a used bmw f30 320d/320i/330i or merc c200/c250/a250/cla than

i seriously cant bring myself to recommend CX3 for it price/value..RM120k? madness
but it sure looks handsome

I also thinking about my parents are they will comfort in CX3, but HRV the design not really nice but seems practical. CX30 too long too wait, really need to buy in this two week as just got into accident last week and dont have any vehicle to move around as my work really needs me to travel a lot.

Isn't it too big? And i sceptical a bit about malaysian production car. Sorry for my attitude.

never heard of borgward and nissan kicks. will do some more research

between those two brands, i more prefer audi looks like TRANSPORTER lol, but cant afford to have continental cars. afraid hearing about the maintenance T.T

Mazda car do look good and nice to drive. If you want your car to look good and comfortable, you can look into sedan car instead of crossover. It's depending on your budget as well. with RM 130K, you can get decent sedan like Civic, Altis, or Cerato.

forget abt cx3 and hr-v. consider the subaru xv instead.

im curious too.. which is the best bang for buck between CX-3, HR-V, XV and ASX?

anyone can elaborate in terms of performance, resale value and fc

all of these models price range is kinda similar

cx3 and hrv considered ladies' cars. xv is safer (awd) and can be taken off-road with no problems. very suitable for young men with spirit of adventure.

ASX is AWD too.. why u prefer XV than ASX?

Boxer engine. Great driving experience.

those are just hearsay
continental car perfect for hway drive like u need

ASX is old...old car

Rather buy CX5 than CX3 for the space.

Cx5 diesel is great

This price.. get Kia sportage, modern Kia is very good

Follow your heart not brain

The CX-3 is a fun car to drive, build quality is so much better than HR-V plus 3 years free service. You can just walk in to service your car, compared to 1 week advance booking at Honda.

Its a poor man's mini

The Mazda is the better mini suv of the 2 if you don’t need space.

Hrv isn’t bad but it lacks in every department other than space.
