Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about torque specifications

Q1

What are the main differences between the available engine options?

The Mazda CX-30 offers two engine options: a 2.5L Skyactiv-G inline-4 producing 186 hp and 186 lb-ft of torque, and a turbocharged 2.5L Skyactiv-G inline-4 delivering 227 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque. The turbocharged variant provides significantly more power and torque, enhancing acceleration and towing capabilities.

Q2

What transmission options are available?

All Mazda CX-30 models come standard with a 6-speed Skyactiv-Drive automatic transmission. This transmission is designed for smooth shifting and optimal fuel efficiency, with manual shifting capability via paddle shifters on select trims.

Q3

What are the key safety features?

The CX-30 includes standard safety features such as Mazda's i-Activsense suite, which includes adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, automatic emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring. Higher trims offer additional features like a 360-degree camera and traffic sign recognition.

Q4

How does the fuel economy compare to competitors?

The CX-30 achieves an EPA-estimated 25 mpg city and 33 mpg highway for the non-turbo engine, which is competitive with rivals like the Honda HR-V and Toyota C-HR. The turbocharged engine slightly reduces efficiency, with ratings of 22 mpg city and 30 mpg highway.

Q5

What are the recommended maintenance intervals?

Mazda recommends oil changes every 7,500 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first. Regular inspections of brakes, tires, and fluids should be performed every 10,000 miles. A comprehensive service is recommended every 30,000 miles.

Q6

What are the most notable features and options?

Standard features include an 8.8-inch infotainment display, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a 7-inch digital gauge cluster. Higher trims offer leather upholstery, a Bose premium audio system, a power liftgate, and a head-up display.

Q7

How does the cargo and passenger space compare to competitors?

The CX-30 offers 20.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats, expanding to 45.2 cubic feet with the seats folded. This is slightly less than the Honda HR-V but comparable to the Toyota C-HR. Passenger space is generous, with 94.1 cubic feet of total interior volume.

Q8

What are the towing and payload capacities?

The CX-30 has a maximum towing capacity of 2,000 lbs when properly equipped. The payload capacity is approximately 900 lbs, depending on the trim and configuration.
