Key Highlights
Overview
To start year 2020 strong, Mazda Malaysia introduced their CX-30 to the Malaysian market. This compact SUV may be a little confusing in terms of its positioning and naming so let’s boil it down to simple terms – it’s a little larger than a CX-3, but not as large as a CX-5, and it is based on the Mazda 3 platform as opposed to the Mazda 2 platform with the CX-3.
Where the CX-3 is offered with a 2.0-litre naturally aspirated SKYACTIV-G as a singular option, the CX-30 gets both this engine and a 1.8-litre SKYACTIV-D turbodiesel. The former makes 162 hp and 213 Nm of torque, while the new diesel engine produces 114 hp and 270 Nm of torque. All variants are paired with a six-speed automatic transmission that delivers power exclusively to the front wheels.
Price of entry for the CX-30 starts at RM 143,059.00 for the CX-30 2.0L, while the next step up sees you forking out RM 165,059 for the CX-30 2.0L High. The range-topping model is the CX-30 1.8L High, which goes for RM 172,943. You can choose from a range of eight colours regardless of variant, with the hero colour being Soul Red, alongside Machine Gray, Snowflake White Pearl, Deep Crystal Blue, Sonic Silver, Polymetal Gray, Titanium Flash, and Jet Black.

2020 Mazda CX-30 - Genetically Engineered Zoom-Zoom
Having gotten to drive the CX-30 immediate after the Mazda 3, I had expected them to feel almost identical from behind the wheel. While there are natural similarities, they do feel quite distinct, so this isn’t just a high-riding version of the 3 hatch. Mazda’s suspension experts have definitely made the crossover more supple and comfort-oriented, at the slight expense of front-end response. It’s still very composed but direction changes do feel a little lazier, making everything slightly less immediate. However, over its competitors, the CX-30 is still the one to get if you enjoy driving
