Compact cars are a blast to drive and economical to own. Unlike large sedans, they can get you where you want to go on less gas and often come with a lower car payment. These types of vehicles have the potential to be versatile, pleasing everyone from single individuals to those with families. Drivers in Bloomingdale, Kinnelon, and Butler love owning compact cars such as the 2015 Dodge Dart and the 2015 Mazda3.
With multiple model options on the market this year, you may have trouble choosing the best vehicle for your lifestyle. At Precision CJDR, we believe it's important to give drivers the facts so they can pick the compact sedan that successfully meets their wants and needs. Here are the pros and cons of two top competitors in the compact sedan class: the 2015 Dodge Dart and the 2015 Mazda 3.Â
First Impressions
The exterior of a vehicle will always be the first area judged. Many drivers won't even waste their time going for a test drive if they don't like the way a car looks. Lucky for you, both the 2015 Dodge Dart and the 2015 Mazda3 have been beautifully crafted.
If you're looking for a car with that obvious sporty edge, you'll immediately fall in love with the exterior of the Mazda3. Mazda is known for creative, eye-catching sculpting and contemporary designs. Mazda has replaced the juvenile grille found on previous Mazda3 models with a five-point grille and edgy headlamps.
If you're a Dodge fan and love sporty models, you'll appreciate the design of the compact Dodge Dart. This vehicle clearly resembles its siblings, straying from the traditional appearance of small sedans. This is a compact car with a huge attitude. The 2015 Dodge Dart has received top marks from professionals for its attractive exterior appearance.
Performance
The feisty 2015 Mazda3 puts on a great performance. The engine options are part of an all-new, redesigned selection known as SkyActiv. You may select between a 2.0- or 2.5-liter inline, four-cylinder engine with a six-speed automatic or a six-speed manual transmission. No matter what you choose, the options will work together well.
The downfall to the Mazda3 is handling. It simply doesn't meet the agility capabilities that Mazda has produce in previous models.
The 2015 Dodge Dart gives buyers plenty of options. You can go with the more economical 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, the turbocharged 1.4-liter MultiAir engine, or the leading favorite, a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that puts out an impressive 184 horsepower. And with all of this power, it still gets remarks for being agile and thrilling to drive.
In this head-to-head competition, the choice is yours. If you're a driver in the areas of Bloomingdale, Kinnelon, or Butler and would like to schedule a test drive of the 2015 Dodge Dart, contact Precision CJDR today!
