2024 MAZDA CX-30

Positioned just below the mid-sized CX-5 in Mazda's lineup, the Mazda CX-30 is a compact SUV offering a blend of style, performance, and cutting-edge technology. Not only that, but the vehicle aims to provide a well-rounded driving experience without compromising on space or comfort, making it ideal for growing families and weekend adventurers.

What’s noticeable about the exterior design of the new CX-30 are the sleek lines and modern silhouette - style points that set it apart from the crowd. Inside, meanwhile, the cabin exudes a sense of quality that rivals even premium brands. High-quality materials, an 8.8-inch infotainment screen, and ample front cabin space make for a luxurious driving environment.

In terms of performance, the Mazda CX-30 offers two petrol engine options: one providing 122bhp and the other 186bhp. The latter comes with Mazda's new Skyactiv-X technology, thereby ensuring smoother performance and lower CO2 emissions, while both engines are paired with a six-speed manual gearbox that has been praised for its light, snappy transitions.

When it comes to technology and safety, the CX-30 is generously equipped. Standard features include Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, seven airbags, lane keep assist, and lane departure warning. The vehicle has also earned a full five-star rating in Euro NCAP safety tests, making it a secure choice for families.
