The 2025 CX-30 is the smallest SUV in Mazda's lineup, measuring 7 inches shorter in length than the compact CX-5. Actually, in terms of length, it's even smaller than the Mazda 3, which frames it well as a subcompact SUV that could be thought of as a high-riding hatchback. As a Mazda, the CX-30 makes good on the brand's focus of delivering sporty performance and a well-tailored cabin. Tiny SUVs such as this have been popular with both younger shoppers seeking affordable options and older empty nesters looking to downsize, but in recent years, its popularity has spread even further.

Edmunds spotlight: A well-dressed athlete
Many subcompact SUVs are a bit of a disappointment when it comes to performance. The Mazda CX-30 isn't one of them. It's one of the quickest models in the class, especially if you opt for the available turbocharged engine. Mazda is synonymous with fun, with the iconic Miata roadster remaining one of the more entertaining choices at any price. The CX-30 gets a healthy dose of that driving enjoyment, with handling that's agile and confidence-inspiring. It's also one of the more attractive choices too, with a stylish exterior and an upscale interior. Check out our test team's Expert Rating below to see why it deserves your consideration.
Competitors to consider
Performance and appearances are important factors, but so are the fundamentals, and the Mazda CX-30 tends to trail the top SUVs in the class in that regard. The Chevrolet Trailblazer offers quite a bit more cargo capacity, which could be a deciding factor for some shoppers. The Mazda is also one of the pricier alternatives, so if you're on a tight budget, the Hyundai Kona and Kia Soul are definitely worth considering.
What’s it like to live with?
To get a more in-depth review and ownership experience, Edmunds added a Mazda CX-30 Premium to its long-term test fleet. Over the course of a year and more than 17,000 miles, it earned strong praise while we gathered valuable data on fuel efficiency and maintenance costs. Note that while we tested a 2020 model, most of our observations apply to the 2025 CX-30 as well.

We drove the 2025 Mazda CX-30 on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.The Edmunds Vehicle Testing Team evaluates a fresh batch of vehicles every week, pairing objective assessments at our test track with real-world driving on city streets, freeways and winding roads. The data we gather results in our Expert Ratings. They’re based on 30-plus scores that cover every aspect of the automotive experience.
Performance
8/10
How does the CX-30 drive? The CX-30 is easy and engaging to drive. The base engine provides better-than-average power for this class. Our test CX-30 needed 9 seconds to reach 60 mph, where rivals take more than 10 seconds. Of course, you can always go with the turbocharged engine if you have the need for speed. The 0-60 mph time is just 6.4 seconds, making the CX-30 Turbo the quickest car in its class. (It even beats a Volkswagen Golf GTI.) The steering is sharp and gives you a good feel for the road. It complements the CX-30's excellent handling as it hugs corners and feels composed and at home on twisty roads.
The transmission, left in its default mode, likes to upshift early to help maximize fuel economy. The transmission takes a beat to kick down if you're trying to pass at freeway speeds. Using the Sport mode helps liven up the CX-30's character.

Comfort
8/10
How comfortable is the CX-30? For a sporty SUV, the CX-30 is really quite comfortable. The front seats are supportive and comfortable enough for long drives. The rear seats are nicely padded and offer a good seating position that's not too upright. The suspension has a sporty tautness to it, but it's still adept at absorbing bumps and impacts.
Freeway cruising is especially nice. The CX-30 has one of the quieter cabins in the class, which lends it an upscale feel. The dual-zone climate control is a little weak for those who like it really cold, but the rear vents ensure rear passengers get their share. The heated seats take time to warm up but are nicely toasty once they are.

The heated seats take time to warm up but are nicely toasty once they are.
Interior
7.5/10
How’s the interior? The CX-30's interior is simple but classy. The controls are easy to see and understand. The infotainment system is laid out well, and navigating with the rotary knob is mostly easy. Thankfully, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto can be operated via touchscreen control as of the 2024 model year. (Previously, you had to use the infotainment system's dial controller.) New for 2025 is Alexa Built-In, which allows you to use the Amazon tech to do things like change the temperature in the cabin.
For an extra-small SUV, the CX-30's cabin is pretty roomy. In front, individuals 6 feet tall and under should have ample space in all directions. Though the CX-30 will accommodate five total, rear seat comfort is really optimized for two average-size adults.
The CX-30's swoopier shape involves some trade-offs. It isn't as easy to climb in and out of as its boxier rivals, and rear visibility is a bit compromised by a thick rear pillar and relatively small window.

Technology
8/10
How’s the tech? The CX-30 comes standard with a good amount of tech. The advanced safety and driver aids are among the best in class in the way they operate. You even get a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot, though you'll have to pay for service after the trial ends. Our test CX-30 had two USBs and two 12-volt power ports up front.
The upgraded Bose audio system delivers a nice, clear sound with good bass. The navigation system is easy to use, and the base 8.8-inch infotainment display is a really bright and sharp screen. A larger 10.25-inch screen is available on certain models, which also brings touchscreen functionality for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Using the rotary dial is easy enough if you have the smaller screen or when you're in the Mazda menus. Alexa Built-In is also available as of 2025. The Amazon tech allows you to control certain features with your voice, like the temperature or the stereo.

The Amazon tech allows you to control certain features with your voice, like the temperature or the stereo.
Storage
7.5/10
How’s the storage? The CX-30 is middling in terms of storage compared to the class leaders. Cargo room behind the rear seats is decent, but the depth of the space from the hatch to the back of the rear seats seems shallow. A wide and tall hatch opening provides good access for loading. But because the rear seatbacks don't lie flush with the cargo floor when folded, it won't be as easy as it could be to slide in long, heavy items.
Storage for small items is a bit better. The sizable cubby in front of the gearshift, center armrest bin and glove compartment are mostly usable. The door pockets and cupholders are small but that's because it's a small vehicle. If you have young kids, installation access for car seats is great, but actual space for a larger rear-facing seat will be tight.

Fuel Economy
7.5/10
How’s the fuel economy? The CX-30 gets an EPA-estimated 29 mpg combined with the base engine, which is similar to what rival SUVs with all-wheel drive achieve. Mazda also offers a turbocharged engine that gets an EPA-estimated 25 mpg. That's underwhelming but perhaps understandable given the boost in power. In general, our testing of the CX-30 has shown that the EPA's estimates are achievable in real-world driving.
Value
7.5/10
Is the CX-30 a good value? Mazda's pricing for the CX-30's base engine trims is competitive for the class and you get a pleasing amount of tech and convenience features for your money. There's less value to be had from the 2.5 Turbo trims as they are considerably more expensive. A CX-30 Turbo is hard to justify unless you've got a true need for speed.
On the upside, the CX-30's interior is roomy, and build quality is excellent with the interior adorned with soft-touch surfaces, leather and nicely placed chrome trim. The piano-black door handles creak a little at times and can leave smudges, but no one's going to notice there. Warranty and ownership costs are standard for the class.

Wildcard
8.5/10
The Mazda CX-30 is sophisticated, athletic and attractive inside and out. Just like the smaller Mazda CX-3, it handles curvy roads with precision and instills confidence as you continue to drive it, but it has the benefit of more interior space and comfort. All in all, it's a well-rounded vehicle.

We suggest checking out the Select Sport trim. It upgrades to synthetic leather upholstery, dual-zone automatic climate control and keyless entry.

2024 Mazda CX-30 2.5 S Premium 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl 6A)
Purchased my Mazda after driving a Ford F-150 for 5 years, the Yin and Yang of vehicles. The truck was fantastic. I was looking for the following in a new car, in no particular order:
- Reliability; want to keep the car for 10 -15 years.
- All Wheel Drive: live in the mountains so this is a must have.
- Good gas mileage.
- A real transmission; no CVT, see reliability above.
- Fun to … drive, dare I say Sporty.
- Quiet when going down the road.
- Comfortable front seat.
- Great stereo.
- Nice interior.
- An SUV, it is easier to get into and out of the higher ride height of an SUV.
- Wealth of Driver aids.
- Affordable; got a great price with 0% financing.
My kids are grown and the vast majority of the time it is just me in the car. Occasionally it is my wife and I in the car. So, the smaller rear seat area is non-issue. It took me two years of research, reading reviews, a few test drives and 0% financing to get me to finally decide on the 2024 Mazda CX-30, S Premium. As much as I wanted the Turbo the increased cost, slightly lower fuel mileage, and potential for longer term increase in repair costs pointed to the non-turbo car.
So far, after a whopping 1,500 miles, I love the car. It is everything I had hoped for and expected. The gas mileage is about 34 mpg in mostly highway driving of 75 miles per hour. It rides superbly, love the heavily weighted steering, it is sporty and fun to drive (for me it is a much better driving car than my wife’s Audi Q5), the stereo is wonderful and with the back seats down there is enough cargo capacity. It is so much easier to park than the truck. Has done fine in the snow and ice; just need to slow down a little with the OEM all season tires. Will put dedicated snow tires on the Mazda next winter. Really like the center dial instead of a touch screen. Took me about 5 hours of driving to get comfortable with it. All the buttons and controls feel solid and are laid out in a easy to use and intuitive manner. Overall, a great car. Will see how the reliability is long term.
It is not perfect, but I could not find the perfect car. A few nits. The cellular reception is worse for some reason with Apple Car Play than when the phone is just in regular use. For example, it can take a while and needs more bars of reception to load Pandora with Apple Car Play vs. just using the phone and no Apple-Car Play. The wireless charger seems to heat up and not always work, trying to figure out if it is my older phone or a real Mazda issue. The center console does not hold a lot (Oh ya, this is a subcompact car). Miss the Ford's ventilated front seats. I am adjusting to the Mazda’s engine power. It takes a little longer to get on the highway, pass going up mountain passes, and overall to get up to speed than the Ford F-150. Yet, it is no problem going over 11,000-foot mountain passes while exceeding the speed limit. The benefit is gas mileage right at or better than the EPA estimates. (got 38 mpg on one highway trip recently) My gas bill is almost cut in half from the truck.
Extremely happy with the car and look forward to seeing how it holds up in the long term. Also, love the Deep Crystal Blue Mica exterior.
Zippy compact SUV
4 out of 5 starsLadyGray4110, 02/16/2024
2024 Mazda CX-30 2.5 S Select Sport 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl 6A)
A zippy sporty compact SUV. Great for empty nesters, young adults, and young couples. Good looking interior with a luxe feel inspite of the leatherette seats on this trim level. My car came with 18" Bridgestone Turenza tires. I get 33mpg traveling 75 to 80 mph on the interstate with this 191 horsepower engine. Putting it in sports mode, gives you a bump up when passing. I disagree with … some reviews on the overall ride. I find it a smooth ride and the engine is really good and quiet at high speeds w/o a turbo. The negative is the upshifting from first into 4th gear is somewhat raspy/harsh as it tries to get there way too quickly. But younger drivers make like that racy sound but can annoy the rest of us. I think this lowers the fuel economy for in-town driving at 22 mpg. On the highway I'm getting as high as 33 mpg. Overall I enjoy the ride of this car with no complaints. The seats are very comfortable.
At 5 ft 6. I really like the front seats. It has somewhat narrow entry for all doors but the seats are comfortable. Also, less leg room for those in the back. I don't consider it to seat five people. Instead I consider seating for four adults just fine but not for long drives.
I like the fact that it actually does come with the compact spare. The back, it's one of the smallest areas that I've seen on compact SUVs. It will do, but I use up all the space getting groceries.
One of the biggest complaints I hear about Mazda cars is the inability to have full touch screen capabilities. But coming from Honda cars and their complicated touch screen, I find Mazda a relief. I like navigating with the joystick like option. Within a day or so I was able to navigate through all the menus with no problem. Now I prefer no touch screen. If you want touch screen for Android Auto or Google Play, you'll have to go to a higher trim level for the 10-in screen. Another complaint I've heard is the automatic parking brake will engage when it's in park. Then you will have to manually release the parking brake each and every time. This is no longer the case with this 2024 model. The parking brake will engage but will automatically disengage once you shift into drive or reverse.
This trim does have rain-sensing wipers, heated rear view mirrors, auto climate control, all the safety driving options, but not heated seats, no power seats, or turbo engine.
The center console leaves much to be desired. It's small....accommodating a few things. There's only two cell phone ports in the whole vehicle located within the console which I found really odd. Mazda could do better. There is no 12 volt socket.
The cup holders towards the front makes it awkward to place and retrieve cups. I had to buy new cups as my others were too high and interfered with the dash controls. Hopefully they will move the cup holders to the side of the gear shift rather than to the front of it.
All in all I am enjoying my first Mazda ranking it 4 due to small rear cargo.
Little SUV - Big Value
5 out of 5 starsO'G, 06/21/2024
2024 Mazda CX-30 2.5 S Select Sport 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl 6A)
We bought our first 2024 CX-30 in January to replace a disappointing 2024 Hyundai Elantra for our around-town car. Our touring car was a 2022 CX-5. After driving the 30 for several months we decided to replace the 5 with another 30. My wife and I are empty-nesters and almost all of our driving is without passangers. We do frequently travel so we purchased the roof cross bars and and … Thule cargo box for our golf or skiing gear, depending on the destination. We recommend the Mazda all-season floor mat option as a better alternative to Weathertechs. The Mazda options are much easier to clean.
Why the 30 over the 5? We really enjoyed the 5. It was great for towing my motorcycle and had significant cargo room. But I just enjoyed driving the 30 more and more. The 30 is quieter - less road noise, less wind noise. Entry and exit is just as easy as the 5 and at 79, that's really important. The interior is awesome for its class - lots of soft materials and no plastic squeaks. Visibility is excellent and there is a long list of safety features. The ride is superb and strikes a perfect balance between sporty and posh. It's simply both fun and comfortable to drive - a rare combination at the price point. Transmission gearing is excellent and the power train allows solid acceleration from stop lights. We live north of Syracuse and really appreciate the AWD given 5 months of potentially serious snow.
My wife and I use the same front seat settings so we opted to forego power seats and save $$. Good for us but otherwise recommended. In 59 years of marriage we have purchased over 35 new cars for ourselves, children and soon, coming of age grandchildren. Among those, our first Mazda was the GLC (Great Little Car), the predecessor to the Mazda 3. We have had 2 Mazda 3s, 3 Mazda 5s, 1 Mazda CX-5 and now, 2 Mazda CX-30s. Every one has been trouble free.
While we started with a GLC, now we have two GLSUVs.

Purchased brand new a little over two weeks ago. It’s comfortable, quiet, responsive and fuel efficient. I got the non-turbo due to better reliability. Impressed that I was able to get 40 mpg on a highway drive. Looking forward to keeping this for a long time.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 2025 Mazda CX-30, so we've included reviews for other years of the CX-30 since its last redesign.
