Mazda is putting out new cars all the time now but one of them really stands out, the CX30. It's called CX30 because CX4 was already taken but don't let the name put you off, there's a great car in there somewhere.
Watch until the end for the behind the scenes take.

The red indicator on the speedo that moves with the "local" speed limit is genius. That's a nice touch.

If you have carplay or auto then waze does this too, a handy feature indeed

It's brilliant, you can tell at a glance what both your speed is and what the limit is. Class system

Bob great review as always.. I had a test drive of this car in Diesel automatic a month ago. Thought it was fantastic. Loved the infotainment screen, nice and high up in your eye line. Bose stereo amazing, cabin lovely and quiet. Disappointed by only 6 speeds in the auto, surely they could have gone 7 speed or 8 or 9. Also the lane keep assist doesn't hold you in lane like other manufacturers. It only pulls u back in if you drift out of line. The adaptive cruise worked great tho. Still though, im only nitpicking, overall brilliant car. I probably would go for a mazda 3 instead and save a few quid.. Cheers..

Mazda nails it in the looks inside and out, especially the interiors look very premium without being unnecessarily fussy like so many car interiors these days.

Thank you Bob for explaining why they named it that. People are terrified of getting a ticket on that stretch of the N7 as the government had tax vultures along it while they were widening it. Now with the money they made they can resurface it as it's awful.

@BobFlavinVideo 4 жыл бұрын

yeah that surface is crappy, it can't displace any water and it's bumpy. Heads should roll but in this little country there's no one to blame

Good review. Most times the shot cut to the instrument binnacle it appeared the gearshift indicator was telling you to change up? (unless I am mistaken). Could this explain the disappointing fuel economy?

@michaelostertag3424 4 жыл бұрын

Good Review Bob, but how comfortable is the suspension of the CX30 compared to ompetitors like for example VW-T-Rock, Kia Xceed, new Peugeot 2008, Skoda Karoq-Kamiq or the basic of this car Mazda3?

Hey Bob. How are you? The US gets the 2.5L petrol engine standard. No manual transmission is even available. I like Mazdas. This one is pretty good for the money. How far away is the far side? I can't find it on Google maps!

If this is a skyactiv X why are you saying its 122ps? Isn't the X 186?

Great review Bob. I don't get Skyactive-X. Is it just hype. The fuel economy reported by you and other journalists is not great and it's not quick either. What's the point, given that's it's priced at a premium over the Skyactive-G versions?

The car in this video is the Skyactiv-X 180 PS, not the Skyactiv-G 122PS. You can clearly see it at 0.26 seconds and Bob actually says it’s the Skyactiv-X! It’s also on the boot door!

This car left me bored shitless (sky active X engine 2.5 l. 186hp). There is no life in this engine unless You rev the shit out of it. I didn't look back on this one although it's otherwise not a bad car.
