The sub-compact SUV segment in America has continued to grow year after year. In 2018, Americans bought nearly 800,000 of these little SUV's versus 200,000 back in 2014. With so much growth, every manufacturer is looking to get in on the action and Mazda is no exception with the 2020 #MazdaCX30. Based on the new Mazda3 platform, the #CX30 adds roughly 5.5" of height and an additional 1.5" of ground clearance to its hatchback cousin. The result is essentially #Mazda version of the Subaru Crosstrek but with a much more luxurious cabin, sporty driving dynamics, and quicker acceleration. Once you get past the silly name, the 2020 CX-30 should become a top seller in the Mazda lineup.

    I think the powertrain is perfect for 95% of customers. Nobody needs turbos or 10 speeds, more complication, more things to go wrong and maintenance, and guys like this reviewer complaining that the trans has "only" six speeds, are the same guys that complain that the transmission is constantly hunting between gears when they drive a 10 speed auto.... always bitch and complain, for most of us out there this car is beautiful, practical and perfect as it is. Good Job Mazda!!

    Just spoke to a Mazda dealer sales manager. He said he’s excited for the coming years til 2023 or so. He said Mazda is trying to move upmarket with their upcoming lineups and trims to position themselves higher then Subaru and such , which he said is high end in the econo market, to right below Acura, Infiniti, and Lexus, which he said is in the low end of the premium/luxury segment. Makes sense to me base on design and interior language MINUS the current infotainment software and looks. The new Mazda 3/ 30 is A step in the right direction. I have good hopes for Mazda!

    Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy your reviews and the key points you make about each individual car. I just notice you seem to say about Mazda “I wish Mazda would have” as if they are not enough. In my opinion, they are doing an amazing job with design and really setting that bar high compared to other car makers. Nothing against other car makers but seriously Mazda is really challenging the status quo on your non luxury car brand. Just some thought Soyfan to keep in mind when you review that unrated car brand.

    The Mazda CX30 here in Sweden has heated steering, the reverse camera resolution is great and with trajectory lines. So the USA lost out on those. The other thing that is different from USA is that the engine that is being offered here is the 2 litre, mild hybrid with cylinder deactivation (sky active G) or sky active x with higher compression and spontaneous combustion and no cylinder deactivation. It would have been nice if the screen was touch screen (when parked as in CX5) since inputting street names and pin code is far easier on touch screen. The road noise is more than Cx5. So sound insulation is not that great. Acceleration is not all that great but it is very stable on the road at high speeds giving you lot of confidence. Having driven almost all the Mazdas I feel it is not a big jump from Mazda CX3 or even Mazda 3. But how do you make a good reliable car even better? Difficult task. Did I say you get 10 years guarantee on new Mazda cars here in Sweden (at no extra cost)? They certainly seem to believe in their engineering.

    Stay away from cylinder deactivation (or take it out for a drive where you're going 55 in 6th and the cylinder deactivation is active and make sure you don't mind the vibration). I have it in my 2019 Mazda3 hatch and the vibration really ruins the otherwise spectacularly smooth drive. Also, make sure the climate control works as it should: set the temp to 62 degrees or so and see if it blows super hot air instead of slightly warm air as it should. This is another thing that drives me nuts in my 2019 Mazda3 hatch... oddly enough it does start regulating temperature normally 10-15 minutes into the drive. Don't have this issue in my 2018 Mazda6 2.5T. Also, blanks on the steering wheel are not blank on Euro models ;)

Hear easily scratched/chipped paint is THE top complaint on mid 2010s Mazdas across the board hands down. Whereas other brands where you'd expect flawless durability are increasingly filled with even more unpleasant surprises these days...

    One note about driving dynamics that may be interchangeable with some other Mazdas: I have a Mazda 6, and the issue I had with it was it's front heavy because of the hood being far forward. I would understeer but eventually learned to manage. Heavily apply the brake but let off immediately and gradually turn the wheel into the corner when coming off the highway because it did not like 30mph turning. My last car was a 2017 Camry and never had that experience. It's not bad, but it's just a heads up in case it transfers between models.

    Was thinking of replacing my secondary car (Mazda CX-5 2017) with one of these, but they lost me at no heated steering wheel. My car spends a lot of time at the airport in Minneapolis, and it is certainly nice to warm up the wheel when I arrive home in the winter. Seems like a lazy omission. Just like not putting in the fog lamps even on the top trim. It's a shame because it seems like they got a lot of things right here. With the Korean manufacturers being so aggressive, this is no time to short buyers on simply luxuries, especially on the very top trim level.

    Maybe CX3 should be taken away. Makes no sense to keep both. After being in both, the size is very similar and I'd take the CX30 as much better looking outside and in. Mazda3 is low to ground, CX30 is GREAT for people in snowy climates 5 months out of the year. AWD! Don't like the non-touchscreen functions, just personal preference. No deicer for mirrors, garage door opener button or heated steering wheel on top trim. :(

I'm probably waiting until 2021 MY anyway, so we'll see what happens.

    I think Mazda was smart in choosing the 2.5l for the cx30. It distinguishes it from the competition. Not to mention the potential for better reliability compared to smaller displacement turbocharged rivals. I also think that's why Toyota has kept their 2.5l in the Camry and RAV4.

    Looks nicer in the C-Pillar area than the strange 3, but the side windows look strangely narrow and the entire side profile looks chunky. And while Kodo is still pleasing, it's getting tired and isn't taking much risk. Too bad other manufacturers can't seem to duplicate Honda's interior dimensions (large). The whole proposition does make sense for Mazda. Crossovers sell, and it slots nicely between the 2 and 5. And as drivers, we are lucky that companies with Mazda's philosophy exist. Good looking, good driving, not perfect, but darned good options.

    I wish I had waited. The CX-3 was too small and underpowered and the CX-5 felt a bit too big for me. I like the CX-30 a lot and really like the name since it is based on the Mazda 3 so it made sense to multiply the number by 10 to show the vast improvements (10 times better?). I also really like the cladding that it will protect the paint. I settled with the UX hybrid simply for my height and my goal of fuel economy. The CX-30 as an AWD hybrid would be awesome so hopefully this new model paves way to future improvements and trim levels. Well done Mazda!

    I’ll take a larger displacement engine with a tried and true torque converted automatic over a tinny, raspy buzzy turbo pile with a CVT (crappy variable transmission) anyday. We should all be thanking Mazda for this, not criticizing them. Also, the Skyactiv X engine is sold in Europe first because they are using it there as a beta test to see its potential reliability. North America is Mazda’s largest market and they don’t want to flood the market with potentially unreliable brand new engine technology. Smart on their part and in line with Japanese work culture mentality.

I just wish that the screen didn't look so small and sunken into the dashboard the way it is. And I'm assuming they didn't include a faster engine because it helps cut costs for consumers. Just my thought and like most of the comments below have stated, you don't need a turbo in EVERY CAR.. you seem to say that ALOT in all of your videos. These are not NASCARS. lmao
