How long is a Mazda3 hatchback?

I’m looking at purchasing a gently used Mazda3 hatchback but where I live requires me to parallel park every day and I’m not that great at it. Because of this, I want to make sure whatever car I buy is more on the compact side.

Ah, the joys of parallel parking. A Mazda3 hatchback is 175.6 inches long. Generally speaking, a compact car measures between 161 and 187 inches—which means that Mazda’s hatchback fits the bill.
