Reviewed a 2024 Mazda 2.0 e-SKYACTIV X Exclusive-Line on 29 Feb 2024
The car is superb. Mazda quality is unbelievable for the money. The exclusive line has everything you need. So much you might want to turn one or two of the assistance modes off. I love the centre consul dials. So easy to use on the move. They soon become effortless and the screen is so clear. Loads of room for me and my wife. Very very comfortable once you relax in to it. The X engine in two wheel drive form is an absolute joy. Quick and responsive at the right revs. That leaves the clutch and gear box one word. Superb. The words I would use in summary are Top Quality and great to drive. The Bose us awesome. A lot of cars these days have huge unnecessary screens that do nothing particularly well and are a pain to use. They dont even look good. Go look as a Mazda they have it right. This car is for couples and small families To compare it to a full SUV would be unfair. It is part SUV so a crossover. Dont let that put you off Go drive it. Its a dream.

Mazda CX-30 (2019-present) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Head-turning looks, inside and out | Skyactiv-X engine is sophisticated, but sluggish in the mid-range |
| Good to drive | Rear legroom is in short supply |
| Choice of front- and four-wheel drive | Boot is small and lacks clever features |
Quick Summary
The Mazda CX-30 (2019-present) is a stylish compact SUV based on the Mazda3 platform, offering head-turning design both inside and out. The minimalist cabin is exceptionally well-made with BMW-quality materials, whilst all models feature a head-up display and an intuitive rotary dial infotainment system. Two 2.0-litre petrol engines are available: the older Skyactiv-G producing 120bhp and the more advanced Skyactiv-X compression ignition engine delivering 178bhp with impressive fuel economy of around 40mpg in real-world driving. Both feature mild hybrid technology for enhanced low-to-mid-range performance.
The CX-30 is a pleasure to drive with responsive steering, smooth ride quality, and lively handling, complemented by one of the best manual gearshifts in its class. However, the Skyactiv-X engine is disappointingly sluggish mid-range and requires hard driving to deliver full performance. Rear legroom is limited due to the shorter wheelbase, and the 430-litre boot lacks practical features like sliding seats. All trim levels are generously equipped with automatic headlights, adaptive cruise control, and air-conditioning. A six-speed automatic gearbox is available, and all-wheel drive can be specified with the Skyactiv-X engine.
Best for: Style-conscious buyers seeking an eye-catching compact SUV with engaging driving dynamics, well-made interiors, and modern technology in a front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive package.
Not ideal for: Those prioritising rear passenger space, large boot capacity, or mid-range engine performance, or buyers seeking the most cost-effective fuel economy option.
Comparison vs Key Rivals
| Vehicle | CarGurus Expert Rating | CarGurus User Rating | Good/Great deals % | Overall CarGurus Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mazda CX-30 | 3/5 | 4.7/5 | 36.1% | 4.2/5 |
| Skoda Karoq | 5/5 | 5.0/5 | 31.6% | 4.6/5 |
| Seat Ateca | 4/5 | 3.8/5 | 38.5% | 4.2/5 |
| Volvo XC40 | 4/5 | 4.6/5 | 34.6% | 4.5/5 |
The Verdict
You should buy the CX-30 if: You're drawn to distinctive styling, value engaging driving dynamics, appreciate well-made interiors, and want a compact SUV with modern technology and flexible drivetrain options.
Consider alternatives if: You require generous rear legroom, a spacious boot with practical features, or prioritise mid-range engine performance and cost-effective fuel economy.
Competitive Position: The Mazda CX-30 (2019-present) is a stylish and engaging compact SUV that excels in design and driving pleasure. Whilst the Skoda Karoq offers superior practicality and space, and the Volvo XC40 provides premium appeal, the CX-30 stands out for its distinctive looks and responsive handling. The Seat Ateca offers better value, but the CX-30's well-crafted interior and advanced Skyactiv-X engine technology justify its position for buyers prioritising style and driving engagement over maximum practicality.
