2020 Mazda 3 Sedan Experience https://youtu.be/_yNyX12KdVk

The third box, if you will - what is basically a sedan boot - makes the 3 Sedan a serious contender in the compact sedan market.
It did lose that fat third pillar that makes the Mazda3 hatch so alluring, but Mazda managed to make the 3 Sedan 3.2 inches longer compared with its predecessor. That’s huge. Especially considering it gained an inch longer wheelbase and just a tad in width. No, it is not a large car, but with some more inches in length and 0.4 lower roof, I am sure the new Mazda 3 Sedan will look far more grown up and serious compared with its predecessor. Noted, it was a fine piece of design too.
Finally, the rear end, which differs the most compared with the hatch and with the Mazda 3 Sedan predecessor takes some striking styling cues such as the small lip spoiler, seems to have a larger rear windshield compared with the hatch, and sports basically the same taillights. No wonder there really. Plus, the rear bumper has been completely painted.
Mazda seems to have found a narrow market niche just between the conventionality of basic models and exclusiveness of the premium ones. It has been there for years, and the interior of its cars shows this philosophy the best. The inside of the Mazda 3 Sedan features a nicely laid out hardware with a simplistic design, fine materials, subtle color theme, and the latest in terms of infotainment and technology.
This, in return, massively reduced the NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) levels. It is harder for vibrations to travel through the structure and actually be noticeable in the cabin if one increases rigidity. This was achieved with even more structural enhancements front-to-back, in addition to those Mazda developed for the previous model. Another novel approach is the integration of the so-called “two-wall” structure under the carpets and floor insulation. In essence, the metal structure of the Mazda 3 Sedan is separated from the carpets and flooring in the cabin with a small cavity. It’s quite impressive and additionally lowers the NVH levels inside the cabin. More soundproofing material is, it seems, mandatory. The Mazda3 Sedan got that too.
