Overview

The G20 Pure sedan is the entry point to the Mazda3 range, pairing the 2.0-litre Skyactiv-G petrol four with the booted body that swaps the hatch's 295L cargo hold for a much larger 444L boot. It keeps the same sharp handling and quality cabin as the hatch but is the pick for buyers who want a traditional sedan shape and a bigger, more enclosed luggage area. Standard kit is modest by 2026 standards, so it suits value-focused buyers happy to skip the Vision Technology safety pack.

Child seats and anchors

ISOFIX Top-tether Both None

Anchor positions indicative (from the published count), pending per-seat verification.

ISOFIX lower anchors clip a compatible child seat straight to the car's frame, the quickest, most mistake-proof fit.

Top-tether straps stop a forward-facing seat pitching in a crash. Australian law requires a tether on every forward-facing child seat, so rear seats almost always have them.

Most 5-seat cars carry 2 ISOFIX on the outer 2nd-row seats plus tethers across the row; some 7-seaters add anchors in the third row.

ANCAP, by exact grade

  • Not rated by ANCAP

A rating belongs to the exact variant ANCAP tested and is never carried across to a grade or a build year it does not cover. A rating older than six years is marked expired because ANCAP’s own test has moved on.

The G20 Pure sedan is the entry point to the Mazda3 range, pairing the 2.0-litre Skyactiv-G petrol four with the booted body that swaps the hatch's 295L cargo hold for a much larger 444L boot. It keeps the same sharp handling and quality cabin as the hatch but is the pick for buyers who want a traditional sedan shape and a bigger, more enclosed luggage area. Standard kit is modest by 2026 standards, so it suits value-focused buyers happy to skip the Vision Technology safety pack.

The 2026 Mazda3 G20 Pure is a five-seat front-drive hatch for buyers who want the small-car basics done properly rather than a long options list. Its 2.0-litre four makes 114kW and 200Nm, claiming 5.9L/100km combined and 138g/km on the ADR 81/02 cycle, and Mazda backs it with five years of warranty. It tows 1,200kg braked, which is more than most hatches manage. The consideration is packaging: the hatch's cargo room is 295 litres VDA, which is genuinely small for the class, and the sedan body of the same grade holds 444, so if boot space matters, compare the two before you decide on looks.

The G20 Touring sedan is where the Mazda3 starts to feel properly equipped, adding leather seats, the 10.25-inch Mazda Connect display, wireless smartphone mirroring and, crucially, the Vision Technology safety suite as standard. It keeps the efficient 2.0-litre petrol engine and the practical 444L sedan boot. For sedan buyers it's arguably the value sweet spot before the jump to the 2.5-litre G25 grades.
