Small crossovers aren’t the first, second, or even third choice for people who really like driving. Unless it’s a Mazda CX-30.

ProsConsWhat’s new? A seriously affordable path to all-wheel drive, the 2023 Mazda CX-30 delivers an upscale interior and compelling driving dynamics. Pricing starts at $22,950.

2023 Mazda CX-30 pricing The 2023 Mazda CX-30 starts at $22,950 for the base 2.5 S trim. For such a small vehicle, the CX-30 offers a lot of trim levels — seven, to be precise. We think the 2.5 S Select trim is the best value. Providing a load of standard features, it still prices out around $25,000. However, more of you prefer the best-selling 2.5 S Premium grade.

These are the manufacturer’s suggested retail prices and don’t include the $1,275 factory-to-dealer delivery fee. What’s new? Mazda adds a little more zip to the CX-30’s 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine, as well as squeezes out a little more fuel economy, making it more efficient overall. We give a big nod to Mazda for continuing to tinker with what was already a well-rounded engine. Otherwise, there’s not much happening with this diminutive crossover in the middle of its current generational lifecycle.

Premium interior Many mainstream manufacturers are upping their interior design game, making their cabins look good enough for a premium marque. Mazda has long been ahead of this particular curve and consolidated its position with the CX-30. Where the CX-30 does dip a bit below average is in its cargo capacity. The Seltos, HR-V, and Trailblazer all have measurably more luggage space with the rear seat folded or in place.Striking and familiar design We like that the CX-30 follows the same exterior design approach as the rest of the company’s SUVs/crossovers. That’s fine by us.
