2023 Mazda MX-30

Based on the company's Skyactiv-Vehicle Architecture, the battery-powered MX-30 is 2023 is its final year. the vanguard for a series of variations and electrified models to follow. Initially, the MX-30 is powered by a 143-horsepower electric motor driving the front wheels and teamed with a 35.5-kWh lithium-ion battery. With such a small battery, range is modest--about 100 miles. That would be competitive a decade ago but not in today's EV market. A plug-in hybrid with a rotary engine will come as well. The most visually distinct elements are the rear doors that are rear-hinged like in a BMW i3, sharply raked rear pillar, and contrasting roof. Sales is only in California. The MX-30 comes with a suite of standard active safety features. 2023 is its final year.

About Mazda

<p>Over time, Mazdas are known to be affordable, fun to drive, and good-looking inside and out. Many of its small crossovers, SUVs, and sedans have earned Consumer Reports' recommendations and above-average reliability ratings. However, its new midsized SUVs have not lived up to the brand’s reliability reputation. Used Mazdas are usually a good option for an inexpensive pre-owned car. Most Mazdas achieve solid, but not exceptional fuel economy. Though sports cars are less popular now than decades prior, Mazda still sells the MX-5 Miata, one of the best of the few remaining enthusiast cars.</p><p><br/></p>
