How Mazda grades

Across the 8 Mazda models graded here — 5 SUVs, one sedan, one hatchback and one convertible — the median overall GPA is 2.40 (C+), level with the 2.44 median across every graded model. All 8 are gas-powered — no hybrid or electric option among them.

Subject by subject against the rest of the fleet, ownership cost is where Mazda does best — a median of 1.90 against 0.85 elsewhere — and technology is where it gives most away, at 2.33 against 2.92.

The highest-graded is the 2026 Mazda Mazda3 at 2.58; the lowest is the 2026 Mazda MX-5 Miata at 2.08. Every grade is normalized inside its own segment, so these are cars measured against their direct rivals rather than against each other.
