What Mazda CX-30 do most buyers choose?

The Mazda CX-30 years with the most listings are 2024, 2025, and 2023.

Those higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you more inventory to compare, which can make it easier to find the right color, trim, and price. They also tend to be the years shoppers cross-shop most often when they want a newer CX-30 with broad availability.

What is the Mazda CX-30's resale value?

Most CX-30 model years are moving lower year over year, which can work in your favor if you’re shopping used. One year in the table is still edging upward, but the broader pattern points to softer pricing across much of the lineup. That makes recent used CX-30s especially appealing if you want a newer model without paying new-car money.

The 2023, 2022, and 2020 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
