Roadie Report - CT to Texas and back - all good
We took our new CX30 on an extended roadie from CT down to TX and back during October. Gas mileage averaged 35 mpg at approx. 70 mph for the 4300 miles. We did a lot of mountain driving on top of tons of flat interstate driving that demanded good truck & RV passing power - the CX 30 has plenty of power. There was ample space for luggage and lots of other stuff in the rear with the seats folded down. The BIG deal was the quiet and comfort - we are in our seventies and 10 hour stints were possible without any pain or drama - a really great road car. The best I've ever owned and I have had many.

The perfect crossover especially for the price
I recently purchased a 2022 CX-30 Premium Trim with metal grey metallic exterior. Things that I really like: engine not too big not too small, leather interior, gauges and buttons for everything, Bose 12 speaker sound system, heads up display, plus dozen’s of other features. Things that I do not like: nothing - absolutely nothing.

Sublime synergism
Best in it's class by far . Bought a 2021 cx30 premium awd. Has 27 sensors in awd system to be as predictive as possible rather than reactive. Elegant interior,12 speaker Bose stereo. Great drive is product of synergistic result of individual components. I switched oem Bridgestones for Nokians with snowflake rating anticipating lake effect snow we get in Northwest Indiana. Will be coming up on 3 years of owning and driving the CX 30. No repair issues. My major complaint is restricted visibility in merging and changing lanes. I have 40,000 miles and will be needing front and rear brakes and new tires. Rather than put $2000 into the CX 30 , I am ordering a 2023 CX 5 turbo. Much better visibility, roomier, and the turbo is a joy to drive.
Newbe but love it!
I'm not a Mazda fan but I have been looking and testing cars everyday for two weeks. I had to replace my moms car, a 1995 BMW 12 cylinder 850Ci, and I have test driven BMW, Kia, Hyundai, Buick, Honda, Lexus, Nissan....etc basically everything out there. Today I bought the Mazda CX 30 Turbo Premium after all. It was priced at 34.5k. A little more than I wanted to spend but jeez the ride is smooth. The interior is well appointed and very comfy. The turbo seems to have enough power to pass easily. It's a four cylinder turbo what do you seriously expect? If you want a racey SUV get the Mercedes V8 Bi turbo. If you're looking for a modestly priced, very well appointed, great commuter, mini SUV then at least test drive this Crossover. It came with a power tail gate as well. The bang for the buck is by far better than any other 2022 in it's class that I test drove in my two week quest. I'm impressed and happy when I drive it.
