It’s 2021 and crossovers are still king. Buyers want SUVs more than ever before, and the market for smaller, city-focused models that have that higher driving position and feeling of security continues to boom.
The Mazda CX-30 has been quite the hit for the firm, offering a smaller alternative to the mid-sized CX-5 and based on the excellent 3 hatchback. It brings the firm’s usual stylish looks with some rugged-looking exterior cladding and a few fresh updates for 2021.
What’s new?

The key update is a revised version of the unique and catchily titled ‘Skyactiv-X Spark Controlled Compression Ignition’ petrol engine. It’s more powerful but also more efficient, with the main upgrades being an adjusted compression ratio, modified pistons and updated mild hybrid software.
