Design

The CX-30 is the smallest SUV in the Mazda lineup. It has the look of a hatchback with added ride height, inviting comparisons to the sporty Mazda3 hatchback. There are eight trims for the CX-30, starting with the base S trim, which has 16-inch alloy wheels. All other trims have 18-inch alloy wheels, as well as integrated roof rails.

Powertrain

The base engine in the CX-30 is a 191-horsepower, 2.5-liter four-cylinder. For more pickup, there’s a turbocharged four-cylinder that makes 227 horsepower using regular fuel. With premium fuel, it makes 250 horsepower. Both engines route power through a six-speed automatic transmission to all-wheel drive (AWD). The base engine returns fuel economy of 26 mpg city, 33 mpg highway, and 29 combined. The turbo engine returns 22 mpg city, 30 highway, and 25 combined.
