EcoHitch offers a 2 inch receiver for a 2018 Mazda 3 sedan, we offer it as part # 306-X7303. If you'll be doing some light duty towing with the hitch, it has a 2000 lb towing/300 lb tongue weight capacity. You'll also need a trailer wiring harness like # 118405, a ball mount like # D-28 and a # PC3 hitch pin and # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball.
