    It looks so beautiful , in any angle. They did a great job with the design , both exterior and interior. The rear reminds me of jaguar , and the dashboard of bmw 3 series e36 and audi a3, at the same time being unique, a combination between futuristic, classic and elegance. The central display is superbly integrated into the dash, very non-intrusive.

    Thanks Thomas (and Holger). I quite like the CX-30, although the plastic cladding is a bit over the top. In that beautiful red colour I can live with it.. :-)
    The interior is really great. I also really like the fact they cover the middle console with leatherette, it makes it look so much more upmarket.
    I would go for the new Skyactiv-X, the price difference in the Netherlands is EUR 1200. That's probably less than in other countries, because of the CO2 tax we have. And the X engine has lower CO2 emissions than the G engine, leading to 1000 less tax..

  • @dateharshal

    Wonderful review! There are not too many cars you can get with 180 PS and still a manual gearbox! The Infotainment system finally feels better. After driving around in a CX5 for 10 days in Norway it felt great to drive but lacked some technology. This makes up for it, especially at the price point! HUD is nice too!

    Good review, I would honestly go with the X engine and AWD. Why? Lower consumption, lower CO2 emissions (important for a lot of markets, will save you 1000’s of €€) and the AWD system is great for winters and inspires more confidence in corners. Also, the 60 more horses are very nice to have.

    A good and balanced review, and I'm very glad that your recommendation matches exactly the configuration I ordered: FWD, G122, AT. Without testing both cars, I figured this would be enough for most scenarios, without overspending. While I ordered a Mazda 3, the Sedan version, instead of the presented CX-30, I assume they behave mostly similarly. It should arrive in the next 2-3 weeks.

    Excellent review Thomas, as someone living in Munich your point about German drivers and roundabouts are spot on.😂
    We have a four year old CX 5, 2 litre 165 PS, really happy with it, just let's itself down a bit with overtaking and driving uphill.
    We tested the latest version CX 5 with the 2.5 litre engine, solved the overtaking and driving uphill problem but fuel consumption was nearly 10 litre/kilometre even with careful driving plus it still has the old infotainment system.
    The dealer basically said wait two years until the CX5 with the newer infotainment and Skyactiv X comes as my wife insists on two golf bags and two golf trolleys fitting in the boot... LOL
    Really impressed with our dealer's attitude but will definitely look at the CX 30 even though the cladding is a bit of a turnoff. It just has to fit the golf stuff without folding seats.
    Thanks for all the great info.

    Very good reporting. We purchased a new CX 5 Grand Touring back in 2013 and thus far have had no negative issues, no repairs. I believe that the main design feature of the X engine was for better fuel economy not for extra power. I would like to see a real world fuel consumption comparison between the G and the X engines, with both vehicles either being
    2 wheel drive or both being all wheel drive.

I opted for the White Leather (which looks Dove Grey) with the the Deep Crystal Blue exterior. I get lots of looks and lots of compliments. This is one of the quietest cars I have every owned. The Bose/12 speaker sound system is awesome. The only complaint is there isn't much 2nd row passenger room. Not a concern as I am single and rarely have any more than 1 passenger.

    I wish they had more colour options. I prefer some more exciting colours. The red is really nice, but it's not too special for a Mazda. This one will make on the list as an option for my next car though. I will have to experience the engine first, because the one in the CX5 is rather lame for a spec-wise powerful engine. From the review it didn't seem like the SkyActive-X is much better. I am interested in the seats, you said they changed them some which would be good since I didn't like the seats in the CX5 either. That is a matter of personal taste of course, but I drive a lot for work, so I need good seating...thank you for another thorough, honest and objective review.

    Thank you for this video. I was in a situation , should I go for the cx30 and which model . We decided to go for Mazda CX-30
    2.0 e-Skyactiv G MHEV Auto SE-L Lux, Automatic, Petrol. After ordering I thought should we have gone for the skyactiv x with the 185bhp. After watching your video, it put my mind at ease that we have gone for the correct model . It’s the price we can afford and the equipment is pretty good , it’s a car that me and my wife are going to share. We also have a 5 year old abs hopefully the rear of the car is not going to be too cramped .All we want is a comfortable ride , and good quality car inside and out. And also it’s quiet refined against the cx5 which we was also considering . I really hope we have chosen a car that we can keep for many years and enjoy. Again thank you . Out of all the reviews your review was so informative and honest about price , affordability and also do you really need such a high spec car . The colour we have ordered is the Crystal blue mica.

    Thank you Thomas. I would go for the Skyactiv-G, manual gearbox and 2WD. In winter time I would mount M+S tires or consider All weather M+S tires. That would be enough for 99% of my days.

    Excellent review. I drove the mazda 3 and loved it, but it was too low for me. This is a better option. Regarding the engines I hear you Thomas, the entry level petrol should be ok, specially with all the radars watching you...but there is a safety problem, when you need to enter a motorway or to overtake, if you don't have enough acceleration you have a problem. Did you try the adaptive cruise control and pilot assist ??

    As ever, thanks for the insightful review. Personally, after reviewing the contenders in the compact crossover/SUV segment, I chose the CX-30. It was a close decision between the CX-30 and the Skoda Karoq, but in the end the CX-30 was more fun to drive and a nicer cabin to be in, trumping the practicality and extra cabin and storage space of the Karoq. I went for the GT Sport, with Sky Activ X and auto.

    It sounds good. I currently have a CX5. One little niggle is that I think the storage in the front doors could easily be made more useful by adding a drink holder and less curve in the pocket to make it easier to use for maps etc. In Australia more people might want AWD for better grip on dirt roads. I am surprised by the new engine - I thought the idea was to maximise fuel efficiency so I didn't expect it to be the expensive version with higher power.

    Hello Thomas, nice review of the Mazda cx-30. I am about to buy this car (2019-2020 model) but still doubting a few thinks. Always been driving a manual gearbox car. Did a testdrive with a cx-30 with the automatic gearbox and manual. The manual shifter was nice and the automatic was also very relaxed.Liked it. Maybe to relaxed/boring/taking away drive fun ? I am in my 50's so also thinking about the future. Will I miss the RPM control of the manual. Also heard some bad thinks about the Mazda automatic system holding too long the high rpm . Not shifting up. Maybe you can advice me and convince me buying either of these engines. Also doubting the interiour colour. Brown (more luxurious maybe) or blue (too temporary colour) , which one will you pick ? Thanks for helping me decide what to choose for !

      It should be possible because in Canada the car has 165HP or something like that. It is obviously tuned to stop producing more power at around 4000RPMs most likely due to the emmissions.

      Adam K Seems like Canada just like USA isn’t getting the new engine models from start as the Mazda 3 isn’t specified as a MHEV. How much power there can be gained from a tune of the new engines still not known but I’m sure a decent increase can be expected - maybe 150-160hp.

    Most people do not like the large arches so I’m surprised Mazda have not reduced them already. A great car though so the arches are forgiven. That the interior is solid well put together with great spec and comfort. Looking forward to winter with my AWD G Sport Tech. Not a sports car but good enough power especially mid range and quiet. My only gripe Is the tin sounding doors. Awesome review with great detail as always.

    Great review. Just bought a new Mazda 3 which has the new info system and works great. This CX 30 looks nice but so much cladding on exterior. And why Mazda still does not fit real PANORAMIC sunroof? Conventional sunroof really makes the car look cheap

    • @sadoka
      @sadoka Před 5 lety +2

      Because an actual full panoramic roof makes the car feel “top heavy”. Meaning that it will have approximately 30-50% more body roll. And that does not fit in the Mazda strategy of making every car feel somewhat like a Mazda MX 5 roadster. If you compare it to the new Toyota RAV4 or Tesla Model 3 with panoramic roofs, reviewers complain about the body roll.

    • @LamNguyen-nl8en
      @LamNguyen-nl8en Před 5 lety

      ​@@sadoka I heard what you said. However, most car manufactures like Benz, Porsche, Audi and even BMW (not french cars which still go with stupid fixed glass roof) these days have ditched cheap conventional for panoramic roof. I don't believe these car companies can't fight the issues of body roll. Mazda can create holy grail engine in the name of SkyActiv X, I'm sure they fit the panoramic roof in their vehicles with no body roll or whatever they call it..

    • @sadoka
      @sadoka Před 5 lety +1

      Mazda has a very, very different philosophy towards cars than basically any other car manufacturer. And that means some stuff like panoramic roofs will probably never make it to their cars.
      Look at Skyactiv, lighter weight for better handling in corners, better fuel economy and atmospheric linear acceleration. Also, bringing luxury but keeping it affordable for the masses.
      That means adding a panoramic roof (100-300KG more) instead of a basic sunroof, will impact handling, body roll, fuel economy and pricing.
      To counter the body roll and bad handling, Mazda could add a system like the Audi Q5, 2 special body computers and three special 1,5kWh electric motors to make the car more stable in corners. But that is a very expensive system, easy to break and expensive to repair.
      To counter the extra fuel consumption, Mazda would have to add a full hybrid system, which is nice for the environment but expensive to build and more expensive to repair.
      Basically, to counter all the negatives, Mazda would go from 33K top spec to 40 or 43K top spec. Just to have a glass roof that you will ignore 99% of the time really. Unless you have the all glass roof of the Tesla Model 3, that would be spectacular.

    Everyone is raving about touchscreens but Mazda and Audi (well, at least up until recently) had it right; knobs are immensely more ergonomic and less distracting to use while driving. Audi should not have switched over to all the touchscreens they put in their cars (yeah it looks cool but now you have to spend more time taking your eyes off the road to navigate through them)
