For 2021 you can now get the excellent 2.5L Skyactive Turbo engine in both the Cx-30 as well as the excellent Mazda. Now, the question is which to pick? A lower, compact hatch or the lifted version?
As tested:
Mazda 3 - $35,800
Mazda CX-30 - $36,450

Which would you pick? Mazda 3 or Cx-30?

I plan on buying a Mazda 3 turbo hatchback next year. One of the main reasons I don't like the CX-30 is that extensive plastic cladding on the lower body. The 3 is more of a perfect fit for me in every way.

Hi Steve, i may join you soon. May I ask what trim you got and the out door price? Also what is your fuel range now on car with full tank ?

@stevepick9527 3 жыл бұрын

I got the premium package, (without leather seats)... out the door with tax and license included was a little over $32,000. Fuel range is almost 300 miles on a full tank, (combined freeway and city) freeway only would be about 370 miles. I definitely recommend buying it if it’s in your budget!

Yeah, the Mazda 3 definitely looks better. It's one of the best-looking cars on the road, imo. However, the CX-30 has more rear head room, more usable trunk space, better viewing angles (especially out the back), and something very few people point out, a much lighter cabin. The Mazda 3's cabin is VERY dark, with those black pillars and headliner. Having owned 2 prior Mazda 3s, I much prefer the hatch..... but the CX-30 is currently more practical.

Loved the shoutout to TFL! I watched that video yesterday. LOL! I just bought a second from the bottom trim CX-30 here in the US. I would have bought the bottom trim, but wanted the Red. It is a lot of car for the money. All the safety features are nice. In the US it does have the adaptive cruise control to a full stop which I tested from 45 mph. Truthfully, if I could have got a CX-3 in a manual shift, I would have bought one instead.

Hey jimmy im curious what kind of range you got when test driving the Mazda 3 during your time and what kind of gas you were driving on? I’ve currently had my turbo for a couple months now with about 1200kms on it and have only filled it with regular fuel but am only getting around 320km range on a tank. Wondering if this is normal or not. Also most of my driving is city

@JimmyMak 3 жыл бұрын

Hmmm during my testing I’m on the throttle quite a bit and I leave the vehicle running during some photo/ video shoots so my economy was quite bad but I was able to achieve close 400km before the light came on. I was told by some that during break-in the vehicle does consume more fuel however I’m not sure if that’s true. Maybe it’s a good time to visit the dealer and ask?
