How it copes with people and clutter
Space in the front in the 3 Saloon is exactly the same as in the Mazda 3 hatchback, and even tall adults should be comfortable, with plenty of leg, shoulder and head room. There's also plenty of storage space, including room for a bottle in each door bin, cup holders in the centre console, a non-slip area ahead of the gearlever and a reasonably sized glovebox.
In the back, anyone particularly tall will find their knees in close proximity to the front seat and their head brushing the sloping roof. It's tight for three adults across the rear bench, too, but at least the windows behind the rear pillars make it feel light and not too claustrophobic.
