I love it, it's my main car (and I live in Sweden). The thing is, I come from a small car which where a combustion engine, and it could take me to another country near by, but how many times do I travel that far? 1 time a year. Most of the time I commute to work, and the local cities and grocery stores. For that - it's absolutely unbeatable. The comfort in this car is NEXT GEN. People always complain about the range, but never even use that range in daily use. And Mazda MX 30 has ONE big party-trick that NO ONE talks about, and that is that within the city if you drive slow-city speeds... you don't have to charge FOR WEEKS! It's crazy low-power usage within the cities, when I go to the store, it literally says the same KMh range as it did when I went, every day! TRY THAT with a Combustion engine, or an EV that has tons of battery power (Huge battery, weights a lot!)

I love mine, had it for a month. Not phased by the 2 doors, I rarely have a full car. Not many of them here in NZ either so it's nice to have one, I've got the hybrid version ❤

It's amazing how you mentioned Taycan in this. Because they are both made by car enthusiasts.

I love my MX-30 it is perfect for the metropolitan area.

Thank you, I have had one since mid- October, 2023. My experience is one of great satisfaction in terms of driving, comfort and transporting my Atto super mobility scooter. The lease deal was very favourable, certainly compared to others I looked at. My driving over 12 months amounts to no more than 5,000 miles. My criticisms relate to those doors. Gimmick rather than practical and access to the rear.

I evaluated MX30 EV for a 3-week period. Every day i loved it more. Yes, the range is low. But it is a refined car. You hit the nail on the head. Its hard not to dislike it. My sister bought the M-Hybrid, but was mainly spending cost as she was retired, distance per day was OK for the EV. Charge at home each day with the Solor roof and cost wise it suits a demographic! Great review.

At 3:11, the US models have a household electric outlet

I got mine for 3 weeks already. Love it. The range is not a worry if you live in a city. So many charging stations. The low cost of charging beats petrol $ anytime.

I like the design this car is so cool

These are depreciating rapidly in the UK and thus make them more appealing as a second hand buy.

Good review, what watch do you have?

This is the vehicle I would choose. But still it will cost me $15k extra. But you get quality plus and reliability. I have a Mitsubishi I-miev. It's 12 years old. One cell, that's right just one cell dropped. And that's all you need in any ev to bring the rest down. It has only ever been recharged from a normal 240 volt household socket (Australia). I was getting over 100 Kms range (16.5kw) battery. I can put a new 30kw battery in it. But the cost is way up there. But the range goes up to 250 Kms easy. Some say 270kms. I know that's more than enough for me here in Sydney. So it's a choice. Sell it with a few new cells and use that money and the money I would pay for the new battery plus another $15,000 and buy a new EV. But here's the thing. Most cars depreciate at $100 per week or more. But the i-miev is already depreciated to its maximum. So the depreciation would be just the battery now. That's about $25 per week over the next 10 years. So is it a good idea for people to buy a used EV cheap and put a new battery in it. Because you are saving at least $75 per week. That's over 300% saving. This never dawns on anyone on the internet making KZfaq vids etc. Nobody at all. Anywhere. But I have. Why is it just me that thinks of this. Or am I wrong somewhere. Plus it will save a lot of EVs ending up on the scrap heap. And it's good for the environment. Not that many people care about the environment it seem these days. Particularly here in Australia. What do you think?

The primary use case of the mx 30 is not to be a secondary car, but its use case is to meet California regulations

In Canada (Quebec), the price for a 2023 MX-30 GS is 44,500$ + taxes. After that, you take 12,000$ off the price (credit from provincial & federal governments) and then, another 4,000$ off the price (Mazda rebate). So the final price is 35,100$ taxes included. Yes it has a lower range than the others in the same class (Kona, Soul, Bolt, Leaf etc...) but also has a lower price. I won't use the car in winter time as my wife has an AWD vehicle. I rarely drive more than 80 km/day (running errands) and will be using it from may 01 to october 31. BTW, I've done more than 180 km with 15% left. I must say that I'm a pretty smooth driver and I drive usually no more than 10-15 km/h over the posted speed limit. 😁 If it was my only vehicle, I would have bought a Bolt EUV with 460 km range (more than 12 months for delivery) !!! 😕

It's a fun car to drive ❤❤❤,not fast and furious. I enjoy driving mine everyday,love all the features this car has ,I don't mind the suicide doors , I saved a lot of gas money this year

In 🇬🇧 , these are available used . 2023 models for way under £20k .

2nd to watch, one of my favourite car reviewers

Alas the 1 problem is not the size of the battery, but its replacement cost: They charge 17000 euros!

and its a freaking reliable car.

I would love to love this car but I just cant. Range plus suicide doors are just terrable..

This car is so expensive cars in this same price range get close to 300 miles range. In cold weather it will be about 60 mile range. This will be half priced used in 2 years.

199 km in summer, 110 km in winter, POUAHAHAHAH!

1st to watch😂

This is basically a grocery car😂😂😂. Good for aunty and uncle hahahaha

Theres lots to like but its very sluggish.

since you give so much effort to this most hated ev, i just give you one more big laugh 🤣. change it to something else if you value your hard earn money
