- The Mazda CX-30 is a subcompact SUV that we added to our long-term fleet back in September 2020. In this video, Travis Langness from Edmunds reviews the 2020 Mazda CX-30 after living with it and logging 15,000 miles over the past year. Travis talks about what we liked and didn't like about Mazda's small SUV and discusses how well it drove and what maintenance and recalls we dealt with. Is the Mazda CX-30 a reliable and smart choice for your next SUV purchase? Do we consider the CX-30 to be one of the best subcompact SUVs after driving it for a year? We answer these questions and much more. This is our long-term wrap-up review of the 2020 Mazda CX-30.

Do you have a Mazda CX-30? How do you like it? Let us know in the comments, and check out all of the entries on our long-term CX-30 right here: edmu.in/31YfVbE
Daughter has the CX-30 and loves it, I have the CX-% and a 2019 Mazda 3 hatch. . . .surfboard? No, but carry two 16' touring kayaks on top with their gear inside. Normally asperated 2.5 AWD.
I just bout one a couple months ago. I love it except that there is not enough space. I end up hitting my head getting in if I don't duck. The trunk is too small and the back seats don't have enough space for legs when I move my seat for my 5'2" height. I'm looking to get it paid off asap to buy another car.
you didnt realize that before you bought the car? You didnt test drive it?
I bought my Mazda CX30 January 2022. On July 1st, 2023 without any warning, I tried to start the car and it could not start. I got a message saying push button malfunction. Today is July 4th and the dealers cannot get the car out of my garage to take it down to the firm to have it checked out to see what is the problem. If anyone had similar problem, please let me know how you resolved it.
@@gemmathompson415try changing the battery in key fob/hold key fob directly on the button and simultaneously push to start
I get why people knock the infotainment controls but it actually ends up being nice once you get used to it. No fingerprints on the screen, and you don't have to blindly poke at the screen while you're driving. With the Mazda system, you can see how many clicks you need to make and do that all without looking.
Also you dont have to lean forward, stretch/strain your arms and touch screens are really annoying to use in motion. Still having both is better but I would take good physical controls over good touch controls any day.
@@GreenBlueWalkthrough yup I can totally understand why people want touch. It's easier when you're parked for sure.
I agree. I dislike how many car manufacturers are going to touch screen. I like when you have both options. When stopped, use touch screen, and when driving use wheel. The wheel is easy to use without taking eyes off road as much. They say you can use voice commands but they don't work well for me. Why can't we have both? I think BMW keeps both. I wonder if more accidents happen if will go back to infotainment wheel and buttons for climate controls.
It's knocked by ppl who change sources every two minutes. Our CX-5 is easy to navigate and connects to my phone bt automatically. It read txt messages and there are short cut buttons (back, home, music) to get to the main areas) I use the steering wheel controls and mute button) more than the rotary knob
Unfortunately I have to disagree on this one. Come on guys, I rented this car when I was in Iceland. It drove like a charm, no debates on this. However, when you need to write an address in detail (especially in places like Iceland, Germany where the street names are long or kind of weird), it takes unnecessarily too much time to enter it. Therefore, I just can't agree with the idea how "optimal/comfortable" to use the rotary knob for a purpose like this. But as said, except this drawback, I loved the car.
I found that once I learned how to use that wheel it felt so much safer than any touch screens that I've used. You can keep your eyes on the road while navigating the screen.
Seems like that would be a big plus. Too many distracted driver's as it is. Like when car phones first came out and people on the car/truck phone more than at home
" I have so much going on in my life, who has time to watch the road?"
After few months of using the CX-30 you memorize accessing few options on the infotainment screen with out even looking at the screen.
Legit just bought this car yesterday lol. So far love it. Good handling and has some decent acceleration
so just to be clear , After 24 hours of owning the car you chose an paid for , your Liking it! an not hating it????.
I hope you like it you spent 25k on it you psycho
I'm about to finance the same lol with a decent DP
I heard the ac is weak, is it true?
How is the car doing right now man! Thinking of taking one. Any suggestion. How many miles do you have it now?
I love the infotainment knobs. Ever try to use a touchscreen on a bumpy road? I can use the controls almost without looking at them. I love it.
Subscribed because of short but helpful review.
I'm truly feeling the LOVE with my special edition turbo cx-30!!!
No thanks I think the turbos a waste of money on this car I take the regular natural aspirated motor that's enough horsepower that's what I bought it for my Z06 Corvette takes care of them speed in me brought this car not for Speed for all-wheel drive for the winter with snow
I’m 6’3” and I have plenty of headroom and the seat isn’t even close to the bottom of the seat track, there is almost no rear seat leg room though… just for tall people wondering if they will fit or not 👍
@Ryan, I’m 5’10 and I’m trying to decide if it’s too small. What are your thoughts now almost a year later?
Agreed. I had one as a loaner and I was anxious it would be cramped and let me tell you that CX-30 was so roomy, I almost turned in my CX-5 to get that for an even cheaper monthly payment. 😏
I got the 2024 CX-30 a couple of weeks ago. I love it. The only downside is that the trunk isn't big enough for a golf bag. The only way it fits without having the rear seats down is by taking the woods out. The bag then fits perfectly to the front of the trunk. My driver just about fits over the bag diagonally. It's just a little inconvenience, not a huge deal.
Hey I did around 25000 miles on mine last year in 2021 CX 30.
Also I did run it for 830 km in one full tank.
How is it? Is it hood car?
Bought the 2021 CX-30 in October 2021. Love it, not for families but def for couples and/or singles with pets.
Thanks for the info! I'm looking for something my babies (pets) will be comfortable in for Long drives
Why not for families?
@@timothygibney159 everyone I know who has kids keeps telling me, in not always the nicest terms, that it's much too small for them, etc.
@@aprilt1695 When I was a kid we survived just fine in something called a car. No living room on wheels required 🤷
I’m 5’7. My wife is 5’4. We expect our kids to be short as well. We pack light. I think we’ll be fine with it.
I'm 6'7" and completely fine with the space while driving lol. Comparable to an accord and its more spacious than a wrangler.
Getting a model without a sunroof really helps !
@Roderick. I’m glad you commented because I’m trying to decide since I’m tall too. What year did you buy and is it running well?
The 2020 CX-30's (2.5 L AWD) front differential, has a major problem. The fill plug has a metal bracket that partially covers it. You cannot remove the plug as it is. Could you make a video that would show how to move the differential enough that drivers could do a fluid change? Mazda fixed the problem on the 2021 and newer CX-30's. Maybe it would be possible to swap a older bracket with a newer one? So far Mazda has blown me off for any kind of a fix. The dealerships have told me that the differential is "unserviceable". Thanks
I like my 2020 CX-30. 6'3" and not issuses with space. This is not a family vehicle so no conserns there. I picked this as I was looking for car in SUV form and this does this in spades!!
The wheel on the infotainment system in out Mazda 3 is far better than a touchscreen. After using it for a while you can do what you need to do almost by feel while keeping your eyes on the road. Far less distracting that having find a particular spot on a touch screen.
I opted for the roof racks for surfboards and kayaks etc. I’m a guitarist however and play baritone guitars, which are quite long. Fits with the seats down though 😅
Baritone ….chugs in drop A 🤙🏻
I have the 2023 CX-30 Turbo Premium. I really like the infotainment system. It's safer to use a jog dial and a select button as opposed to a touch screen so my eyes are more on the road. Plus the screen stays clean and is free from grimy fingerprints.
I realize this is a year old video- and the new 2023s and 2024s are a BIT different- but they should be similar enough to get a good idea. THANKS- great review.. I'm torn between this and the CX-50. I don't need the space in the 50 and I won't be "offroad" unless I slide in the ditch in the winter.. but I LOVE the styling and they are close enoug in cost not to matter much.
I have a bmw 230i with a 2ft wide touch screen and my mom's got a cx5 w the wheel. I like both. I like the vol know on the cx being where it is, but I love the wide-screen of the 230i
Jeez, in Australia our service intervals for Mazda are 10,000km just over 6,200 miles, we're really getting ripped off compared to your 10,000 mile/16,000km intervals!
Hey gang,
Im having a problem with my siriusxm device constantly connecting, then disconnecting from Bluetooth. I've heard stories here and there, but no resolution.
Anyone?
Sure for somethings having a touch screen is better, but if I have to choose between the DISASTER that are the new infotainment that have no buttons and everything in the touch screen, and having 0 touch input, I'd much rather choose the latter, Mazda is my hero for "declaring war" on touch screens 😅
Got 25k on my 21 cx30. It can drift on dirt and snow. It can to mild to moderatish off road ( working on beach test) . 30+ on the highway. Driving it alot around town like 23 with spirited driving but when you need the range its right there. And it can take a pretty good hit with minimal damage lol
people are comfrotable in the back seat?
@@MattGarcyaDC depends how big the person in the front is... Done road trip for 3 ish hours with people 220 lbs 5'7" in both seats ... I'm 160 and I sit pretty straight up in my seat.. taller people have less head room as it's a shorter suv
I test drove one in 2.5 S Select trim with NA engine. It has very sporty handling, good acceleration and passing power. Visibility is comparable to driving one of those armored bank vehicles (exaggeration). lol
I’d still love to daily drive this, but I wish it had an extended range electric or hybrid option.
YES NEEDS A FUEL EFFICIENT OPTION
@@ENTJ47 Mazda and Toyota have a factory in Alabama for the different Corolla Cross and CX-50. In the future they plan to start building a hybrid together there. We have 3 CX-5s, the guages are boring black and white and the newer ones did away with a touch screen, more about what the engineers found was safer, instead of what buyers want.
if it came with a cold fusion reactor that would be better , just wish it had one..
@@jeffruebens8355 Looks like they're starting to bring back the touchscreens thanfully. The newer CX-60 and 70 will have touchscreen in addition to the rotary controller
@@Clove_ParmaOh, I love that. If the 2024 CX-30 has both, I’ll buy it immediately.
I’ve been holding out to purchase my next vehicle, but that would cover all my bases.
I know why you didn't get 27mpg. Everybody and I do mean EVERYBODY I've ever seen driving this car or a Mazda 3 is hauling tail. People drive these cars fast. Don't believe me? The Mazda 3 is actually on the top of the list for cars that get ticketed the most for speeding. It placed in the top 5. These cars are apparently very easy to drive quickly.
Zoom zoom
Lol true. When ever I get the chance to send it in the cx30 I'm sending it, car just feels like it was made for it. I love how much torque the engine has, effortless power :) But when you drive it regularly it's even more buttery smooth, very relaxing drive.
@@Unsalted375 lol! Judge, We have a confession. He's pled guilty before the court.
Many confuse this CX-30 as a SUV or CUV. It's neither, it's a Hot Hatch.
@@jaydibernardo4320 i don’t think you know what a hot hatch is bud
I'm looking at this for my daughter soon to be in high school. Just wonder if the turbo will be to much for her to handle.
Uk driver here, own cx30 2.0 180bhp skyactivX awd auto and average 50.4mpg on a run and 35mpg around town.
Really? That is way lower that mazda claims, have you tried to measure it by filling up gas?
@@rune20401I have just checked on the Mazda site and if you look at the Mazda UK brochure for the CX30 2.0 180bhp AWD Auto it shows, Low 35.8mpg, Med 46.3mpg, High 49.6mpg, Combined 42.8mpg, so my figures are Low 35.0mpg and High 50.4mpg, Combined 42.7mpg. I think 0.1mpg difference is pretty good. Remember I'm giving UK stats.
How long have you been driving the X? Any issues? I've heard that X does not have cylinder deactivation, is this true? And lastly, whats the max engine speed (RPM)? Been years and hardly anybody talks abouts these engines.
@@khelgarironfist3301that's a good sign.
Own a 2021 since April. The issues are that the parking brake turns on every time the vehicle is stopped, something other Mazda's don't do. There is also the false low voltage alert that is too sensitive. I prefer the prior door handle as sometime difficult to open, particularly with winter gloves on. Finally, the ignition button bezel is black plastic and flush with the dash, and hard to find in the dark (at least was fixed with a 3rd party bezel, but the CX-5 is better designed with a recessed button and metal bezel).
Overall, the vehicle drives great, is plenty fast even without the turbo, and handles with the heart of a Miata.
The parking brake is so stupid. I should be able to decide if I want to set the brake or not. Having to click the button every time you start up the car is ridiculous too.
@@androiduberalles Totally. Mazda should take a hint that nobody else does a parking brake this way. Should be able to set this "feature" to off in the settings if we want.
@ Smitty.... File a NHSTA complaint.
@@K03sport probably would just be easier to hack the button with an Arduino that bridges that connection briefly after it gets started
@@androiduberalles It is there for safety and to save your life.That poor actor from Star Trek got killed when a jeep cherokee without this rolled down and crushed him and you would be surprised at how many people get hurt.I just bought a CX-30 and so what--an extra 1.5 seconds to hit a button irks you that much--get real beto.
Is it good on gas? Thinking about getting one after having a jeep wrangler ! Just really want to feel the difference, or should I go toyota route for good mpg??
U should test drive them both, why not?
I just bought a 2022 Base Model. Rather then call this vehicle a CUV I'd say it's more of a Hot Hatch. At under 24k MSRP I think it's a great value. Sure, it doesn't have a lot of bells & whistles but that means less electronic items to crap out later. It also has 16 inch wheels with taller profile tires so these soak up the bumps better then the lower profile ones on the higher CX-30 models. . I personally love the infotainment system. There is a learning curve of a week or so but as others have said in the comments here you don't take your eyes off the road to adjust. Overall it's a great car for me as I'm single under six foot tall. My only gripe is where the car was assembled: Mexico. I don't think the quality control will be as good as a made in Japan model but only time will tell.
Does the Base model have lane departure warning and blind spot monitoring?
@@dougchan8161 Lane departure but no blind spot monitoring. Lane departure is a PIA 99% of the time & if you adjust your mirrors correctly (most people don't know how) blind spot monitoring is not needed. Like I said sometimes less is more meaning less electronic stuff to crap out later.
@@jaydibernardo4320 Thanks for the reply.
@@dougchan8161 👍
I been trying to get a base model here in Connecticut for ever that's we're the value is and dealers know that they lie and they claim they can't get one they want to push other packages preferred or whatever on me so they make more money I think it's a waste of money I like the base model I'm still waiting I might have to go to another state to get one New York or Massachusetts
Are the CX30's made in Mex or Japan?
Mex
1:20 < can you explain what you mean here? You say it's a lot of power for a small "SUV" (it's not an SUV, it's a crossover to be clear), but you mention it went from zero to sixty, "two seconds quicker".
Quicker than what? You just ended the statistical information with no statistic. What other car are you referring to that was slower?????????
Got 2021 Turbo …overall I love it except for 2 things …1. very small gas tank…I’m filling up all the time. 2. Most uncomfortable seats I’ve ever had. Horrible upper back pain.
Interestingly, this is the first car out of 4 that doesn’t give me back pain or requires a Sacro-ease seat and I’ve had it nearly a year.
@@simplysuelou2014 We all come in different shapes and sizes..100% the reason for that result :D though I have heard that the seats are uncomfortable but only about the leather ones. Aparently the leather seats can even push on your left leg from below so you have to sit kinda sideways and that in turn will cause back pain in the long run.
I’ve heard the Cx5 seats have a bad effect on the legs and back. Same seats?
@@allnfun6315 my wife has a 2017 CX5 and the seats are fine.
Jim Nuttall Thanks! Good to know. It’s like in a third of reviews I hear people complain about the seats in the CX5.
I'm 8 feet 3 inches and the head room is okay for me.
Bro, wat?
Completely awesome!
I need one, an upgrade from a Focus.
Cars that tall people aren't sure that they can live with are often great for smaller people. Everyone doesn't need to chauffeur people who are 6'3" around all the time. If you're uncomfortable in someone's backseat, it raises the question, why didn't you drive?
2 seconds faster to 60 than…. What?
The non-turbo, you goomba
I am looking for a car. This may be a car to test out.
man I never knew anybody that surfing . actually. expect their surfing board to fit inside the their vehicle !!! they will always place it on the top roof !! in the car mostly will be grocery's. kids seat. or camera gear or gulfing equipment's ..
i stood next to one at a Pizza Hut parking lot and MY GOD its SMALL. you dont notice on these Reviews or Videos but in Person IM 5,4 and im almost taller than it
Got mine today for 27
What year and trim?
im 5'7 and just on test drive felt like im in a box. Maybe you can get used to it. But just for some picky people to know.
I want to see 300HP !
700 Hp would be better ..
The Turbo version must fly.
I test drive one, and it really did. Ton of power down low.
I own one, it delivers nearly ALL of the torque at around 2,500 RPM. It absolutely rockets when you mash the gas off the line. Once you get around 45-60 MPH tho it kinda becomes a lot more tame but still quick.
@@CorruptIgnition8 I totally agree with your impressions. Mazda really tuned it for the low end, which is a nice improvement. I have the 2.5NA, and while it has plenty decent power in the CX-30, the engines needs to be revved as the engine really wakes up when you get beyond 4000 RPM's.
I AM big right now-- 6'1" and heavy--but losing steadily on carnivore.. so will be in better shape soon. The mention of " less seating area" kind of concerns me. I'm GLAD the small screen is here-- BIG SCREENS SHOULD BE OUTLAWED.... I drove tow truck for years and 87% of the accidents I worked were CAUSED by some fool playing with a screen- and when you clean up a few accidents where small kids and babies are KILLED by the fool playing with the screen-- you would hate them too- and they are NOT necessary. They should be made so they will NOT work at all if the car is moving-- except for maps and camera backing up.
15K is new. Try 50K and what it is like
To me- you can SEE the QUALITY in it--- whereas if you look at toyota and subaru comparisons, they LOOK CHEAP-- made of cheap plastics and sound "tin-ny" (no such word- but hopefully you can understand..) THE OBVIOUS quality in the making- and the REAL transmission instead of that Certainly Verified Trash (CVT) one-- makes this a no brainer.
They should've just called it the cx4... 🤷♂️
There is already cx-4 in China.
What the heck does it matter? I don't decide whether or not to buy a car based on its model number.
Between CX-3 and CX-5 = CX-3.5 not CX-30. SMH.
...CX-4?
@@Trendyflute... The CX-4 was a China market only car. Mazda apparently has a naming scheme planned, but it is taking pages out of the BMW playbook and BMW's naming scheme makes little to no sense as they break their own rules with each new model....
No touch screen is a deal breaker. There's no excuse for this. Voice controls suck. Nobody wants to talk to their vehicle.
Man, that porn stache has to go dude
🤣🤣🤣
lmfaooo
But why...it made me focus on what he is saying 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
@@unclebarry989 or not
Seats are uncomfortable.
Toyota corolla cross much better then Mazda CX-30
jajajajaajaja
Nice joke!
All jokes aside I drove the Corolla cross cvt sounds like absolute garbage compared to Mazdas sky active automatic transmission, and it's kind of a dog. Glad I got the 30.
You must be kidding. Maybe u mean space, yeah just live on it and never drive...
Nope…not even close.
You make videos for 4,25% of the audience (Americans only) when you don't also include metrics. The big world outside of America evolved beyond imperial measures sixty years ago. Only little America never progressed beyond British oppression.
