What kind of oil does a Mazda 3 take?

My parents gave me a used Mazda 3 as a going away/moving out present—I’m taking a new job in a city 3 hours away. Before I hit the road with my stuff, I’d like to get the oil and filter changed. What kind of oil does a Mazda 3 take?

What a great present! In the chart below, you’ll see an overview of the 2018 to 2021 Mazda 3 trims. They all take a synthetic oil, but the weight of the oil and amount varies a bit:
Year/Model/Engine| Oil type and weight | How many quarts | | ——— | ———– | ———- | |2018 Mazda 3 Sport 2.0L| Synthetic Blend OW-20 |4.44 Qts. | |2019 Mazda 3 2.5L| Synthetic Blend OW-20 |4.76 Qts. | |2020 Mazda 3 Select 2.5L | Synthetic Blend OW-20 |4.76 Qts. | |2021 Mazda 3 Skyactiv-G 2.5T | Synthetic 5W-30 |5.1 Qts. |
