2023 Mazda CX-3 Maxx Sport DK

Let’s not beat around the bush: the Kia Stonic is the car equivalent of a 19-year-old apprentice who just bought his first gym singlet and now reckons he’s an influencer. It’s trying to be one of the big dogs — talks tough, wears flashy shoes, but can’t reverse park without three attempts and a prayer.

You look at it and think, "Aw yeah, cute."
Then you drive it and think, "Oh. That’s all you’ve got?"

It’s small. It’s twitchy. It’s about as confident on the road as someone getting their P plates on a rainy night in Balga.

Now look across the lot — there’s the Mazda CX-3 Maxx Sport.
It’s not here for a popularity contest. It’s here to get you from Karrinyup to Kalgoorlie with your pride (and shock absorbers) intact.

CX-3 isn’t trying to be cool.
It is cool — the type of car that’s done its time, put in the work, and doesn’t rattle like a tin roof in a Fremantle storm.

Let’s line them up:
Kia Stonic:

1.4L engine that feels like it’s reading off cue cards.

Suspension tuned for Korean footpaths, not WA potholes.

An interior so plastic it crackles in the sun and squeaks every time you hit a speed bump in Midland.

Mazda CX-3 Maxx Sport:

2.0L Skyactiv engine — smooth, responsive, and doesn’t whinge when you ask it to overtake a caravan.

Solid build that actually feels like someone took pride in their work.

A cabin that’s comfortable, clean, and doesn’t make you feel like you’ve stepped into a microwave-safe lunchbox.

And here’s the real kicker — the CX-3 doesn’t pretend.

It’s not showing off. It’s not asking for likes.
It’s just sitting there, waiting for the next trip down to Yallingup, the next run to the footy, the next Bunnings run where you accidentally spend $400 and still forget the thing you came for.

The Stonic? It’s the sort of car you buy if you’ve never driven outside your postcode.
The CX-3? That’s the car you take when you don’t know where you’re headed — but you know it’s gonna be a good time.

So yeah, you can get the Stonic.
But you’ll be wishing you’d bought the Mazda the first time you hit gravel and the Kia starts sounding like it’s broadcasting AM radio from 1994.

CX-3 Maxx Sport: Grown-up power, built to last, and actually up for a proper WA weekend.
