2023 MAZDA3 Sedan shown with available features.
At World Car Mazda New Braunfels, you can find a diverse selection of models to choose from. If efficiency and accommodation are your main priorities, the 2023 Mazda3 Sedan will be the ride for you! This compact car can be found at our location, so let us tell you more about it.
Interior
These days, our vehicles tend to be a home away from home, which is why we can't get enough of the Mazda3 Sedan's interior features. A dual-zone automatic climate control system is available on certain trim levels, allowing you and your copilot to adjust your designated areas to your preferred temperature. Driving home at night doesn't have to be a hassle, thanks to the available auto-dimming rearview mirror. This upgrade comes with a HomeLink®1 universal transceiver, so opening up your garage door or security gate can be done all from the driver's seat. To enjoy your drives to Purgatory Creek Natural Area for a day out in the sun, be sure to set the mood with the help of standard Pandora® internet radio integration!
Safety
Wherever your wanderlust leads you, it's pertinent that you remain safe at all times. Thankfully, the 2023 Mazda3 Sedan is prepared to assist with features like the Lane Departure Warning System2. In the event you start veering out of your intended path while out on streets like Airport Highway, this technology will make you aware of the situation. Taking it a step further is Lane-keep Assist3, which can nudge you back to the center. These innovations are both standard, as is Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop and Go4. With it, you'll be able to maintain a preset distance from the motorist ahead of you in order to prevent fender benders. Let us not forget the multitude of airbags5 that have been strategically placed throughout the cabin, which will be ready to deploy if you're involved in a collision.
Performance
The Mazda3 Sedan also goes above and beyond in the way of performance, so don't hesitate to put it to the test during your drives around San Marcos. Kicking this off on a high note is a standard SKYACTIV®-G 2.5L 4-cylinder engine, which cranks out 191 horsepower and 186 lb.-ft. of torque. For unbridled force, you can upgrade to the optional SKYACTIV®-G 2.5L Dynamic Pressure Turbo system to gain access to 250 horsepower and 320 lb.-ft. of torque. This car is also equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission, so accelerating will be a breeze. The base powertrain flaunts an estimated 28/37/31 MPG city/hwy/combined6 fuel economy rating, so you can skip stops at the pump a few more times before having to refill the tank. Be sure to also take a look at our current incentives.

Testimonials
“ My wife and I recently purchased a CX-50 from World Car Mazda and had a great experience. Johnny was professional, helpful, and answered all of our questions throughout the process. He made the purchase easy and stress-free. We appreciate his excellent customer service and would recommend asking for Johnny if you’re shopping for a vehicle! ”
“ helped my son buy his first new car here. Elliot was spectacular. he gained my trust. would highly recommend working with him ”
“ Great service and gave us updates on services needed now and in the future. Our service agent Jason was knowledgeable and professional. ”
“ I had an amazing experience at World Car Mazda thanks to my salesperson Elliot . From the very first conversation, Elliot was patient, professional, and genuinely committed to getting me the best deal possible. I came in prepared and knowing my numbers, and Elliot never made me feel pressured or rushed. He worked hard to match a competing offer, got me into a 2026 Mazda3 Jet Black with window tint, GAP insurance, 12 free oil changes, AND World Car’s lifetime warranty — all at a payment I was comfortable with. He even took me on a test drive and made the whole experience fun and stress-free. You can tell he truly cares about his customers and not just making a sale. If you’re looking for a new Mazda, ask for Elliot. He will go above and beyond to earn your business and make sure you leave happy. I went from stressed about my car situation to driving home in my dream car the same day. Couldn’t be happier! ”

“ The first contact I had at World Car Mazda was a kind and helpful receptionist who gave me directions to the service center. I mentioned that I was coming from Boerne, and she ended the conversation with "have a safe drive". That kind of customer support meant a lot to me. I walked into the service area and met Zena, she helped me understand the timetable for repairs and maintenance. Throughout our initial conversation she was checking to see if I understood and was very thorough. She provided her phone number should I have questions and/or need anything. While my car was being serviced I decided to walk to North Cross Mall. Zena asked a gentleman to give me a ride to the Mall. He stopped at that point, in the middle of his lunch, and drove me there. Everyone was genuinely interested in doing thorough job and providing kind services and attention. I highly recommend this service center for vehicle maintenance and driving safety. ”
“ Great customer service. ”
“ Great friendly service, and very informational, job done fast and efficient! ”

He took the time to listen to what I actually wanted and never made me feel pressured. The entire process was smooth, transparent, and stress-free.

“ Awesome customer service 👏 Superb attention to detail, and top class craftsmanship. Personal attention is top tier at this location. ”
“ Didn't know buying a car could be so easy! Luis Valdez was my salesman and he made the process swift and easy and got me into a new car the same day. They even worked with my pre-approval, no hassle. These other dealerships make buying a car so unnecessarily hard but this was just easy! ”
“ Look for Juan Jose at this dealer, this guy will get you a deal that you didn't even thought you could get. My credit was not the best and I got a great deal for a new car. I love my new Mazda now and they were quick with the service. ”
“ My car's heater stopped working, so I took it in. My service contact was Raul, who was wonderful. Through no fault of World Car, the needed part that came was the wrong one, so it took an extra day. He kept me up to date and never got annoyed when I called. ”
“ The service at World Car Mazda was excellent ”
“ Be careful with this dealership. I declined all add-ons, but they still added a $2,000 charge without my consent. I went back twice to have it canceled and was repeatedly told it would be removed. After 3 months, nothing has changed. This feels like a scam—you risk losing money if you buy a car here. Update : I tried calling Mazda corporate, and they said the dealership has not canceled the maintenance service. I also called the maintenance company, and they said the same thing. I have evidence that I went there twice and requested the cancellation, but everyone at the dealership lied. ”
“ Very poor customer service at this location. I recommend the new Braunfels location. It doesn’t matter who you call or who you deal with here they do not return calls. They sold us a brand new car that had damage on it and was in for repairs for over 2 weeks. We totally regret on so many levels coming to this location for our new car purchase. The are a very poor representation of Mazda USA. ”
