Mazda first released the MX-30 in just 2020. Of course, only a single generation has been released in such a short time.

The model represents the Japanese company’s first production EV to date. It is fairly fitting for their first fully-electric offering to be a subcompact crossover SUV, given their recent explosion in popularity of both crossovers and EVs.

As of 2023, the MX-30 is offered with both hybrid and fully-electric.

This means that the powertrain options have been expanded to include both a 1.6 L rotary generator for the plug-in hybrid version or a 2.0 L inline-4 for the mild hybrid offering.

These have been mated with either a single-speed automatic or a 6-speed automatic, depending on the powertrain.

To much criticism, Mazda fitted the model with a rather small 35.5 kWh lithium-ion battery, which means its range capabilities are limited to about 106 real-world miles. This has put the model at a huge disadvantage when compared to offerings from other brands that boast far superior range.

Competition for the MX-30 depends mainly on whether talking about the EV or the hybrid version. The more popular EV is often compared to the likes of the Hyundai Kona Electric, Kia EV6, Volkswagen ID.4, and Nissan Ariya.

Despite criticisms for its weak range, the model received a fairly good reception after its release.

It was shortlisted for the 2020-2021 Car of the Year Japan Awards, as well as winning a 2020 Red Dot Design Award under the EV category.
