Mazda has a nice distinctive design. Not overly fussy and front and back lighting is cool. You nicely point out features common on $$$ cars. Great review Drew and Mason.
Fantastic review and happy Friday! Sat inside a 23 Venza XLE earlier today and was extremely impressed, tons and tons of rear seat space, way more than I would’ve expected for a two row suv.
Mazad is petty common in different car companies. The prices rise every year when they make new ones. PERFORMANCE FROM THE GROUND UP. The new Mazda CX-90 was crafted to create a connection between driver, passenger, and every journey shared. A 3-row SUV designer with precision to elevate every moment together.Although it is less expensive to maintain a Toyota, both Toyota and Mazda have lower repair and maintenance costs. Toyota sells more cars than Mazda, yet Mazda vehicles are overlooked for their dependability. Additionally, Mazda easily beats Toyota in terms of dependability, fuel efficiency, and build quality.
Great color with the carbon trim. Interior is above average but still lacking a bit especially in terms of the gauge cluster. That being said, Mazda is the only company out there who truly competes with KIA/Hyundai in producing attractive vehicles inside and out,
If you're looking to make a comparison with last year's model (2023), it would be beneficial to bring that one along next time. This approach allows the audience to clearly see the changes and differences between the models. Additionally, including both models in your video would enhance its professionalism and comprehensiveness.
Mazda fan here but there is one thing that irritates me about this car is lack of heated seats and usb c ports in the rear seats 🤯 that is just hard for me to process for 2024
@@CarConfections , sorry, I meant I love the green color and the brown accents in the interior. It's a lovely combination! But I'm not a fan of turbo due to reliability concerns.
@@solderbuffare you saying your concerned that turbo would put too much stress on the trans, I’m curious but don’t understand your comment being new to new cars and the variations.
@@guitarplayer4429 , just Google "why turbo engines are bad". From my own experience, my father used to own a turbocharged VW and that engine often had problems with the turbocharger specifically.
I'm not really a car person... but I'm confused why if youre paying that price for something like the carbon edition how it doesnt come with the Bose speakers? seems off to me.
I hate that they dont offer those terracotta seats on the darker body color. I wanted this cx30 and it was on top of my list but i just hate that sand color. BMW X2 it is for me i guess...
I mean not particularly. The base engine performs pretty much in line with the HRV, Kona, corolla cross non hybrid, etc. And those cars all have significantly less inspiring engines
Anyone have concerns about the rear straight bar suspension. I am nearing the end of my cx5 lease and considering going into a cx30 but it doesn’t have the independent rear suspension like the cx5. Also a little concerned about it being manufactured in Mexico vs Japan. I’m purchasing a Japanese vehicle. I’d like it to be manufactured in Japan. Concerned a little little bit about lower labor cost resulting in lower quality manufacturing. Looking for peoples thoughts on this.
My daughter has one of these and I fell in love with it until I rode in it yesterday. I felt very claustrophobic with the tall doors, small windows and the dashboard was so high that I thought I'd get decapitated if we hit a pothole. Next time we're taking my car which is a 23 Forester Wilderness. 😅
I know, I'm seeing that, yet, they are as reliable in most cases than many Toyotas and Hondas. About to get a used 2023 cx30 for my mom and been test driving these and they are nice.
@@ELP1125 actually they are very bright and very visible,especially at night . Vehicles with the turn signals mounted with the headlights are actually very hard to see when the turn signals are on in a lot a situations. Some Vehicles are now actually turning off the headlight when the turn signal is on. This is not safe either. It is way more visible when mounted away from the headlights.
@ well I can you from experience those thin turn signals near the bumper aren't safe. I've seen multiple Mazdas with those turn signals and I didn't even know they were signaling when viewed from the front. Also the rear turn signals are still within the tailights and are much easier to see.
IMO I would upgrade to the CX-5. It's a bigger, more comfortable SUV for not that much more. And it's assembled in Japan. CX-30 is assembled in Mexico. Japan is ALWAYS better.
We need more reviews of cars that hot chocolate queens with phat yams like me actually want to drive like Bimmers, Benzs, RRs, Porsches, and Lambos!!!! Make it happen boo boo!!!!
Thats an exaggeration. Nothing looks particularly old about the tech its just a preference. The dial controller infotainment screen is the much more elegant while touchscreens are the more user friendly. All of it can be adjusted to in no time and after a month of ownership you won't even be thinking about it
Been looking into these "cheap" vehicles for weeks now. I've learned that these are basically "Have to" not "Want to" vehicles. Im trading in my BADASS 2018 Chrysler 300s for one these "econo-boxes" with useless sensors, terrible transmissions and a lawnmower engine because i HAVE to...lost my job, now i drive for Lyft and Uber and I need a cheap car that i don't really give a shit about it.
I love these things- but I don't like when they call it a specific something and then LIMIT the colors I can get to this butt ugly baby puke greenish whatever it is.. I DO love these cars- and wish they'd just make it possible to get ANY trim in ANY color-- period..
OH- I can see they have ROUNDERD the small lines that were there. Wish they hadn't done that... it WAS a perfect design-- but rounding it off and putting baby puke paint on it is NOT a good change.. SCREW the carbon shit if that's the only color you can get.. BUT - I don't want the 2024 anyway since they "rounded it off " too much- the GREAT lines look GONE to me and it just looks FAT and round now-- NOT GOOD.

Does it consume more fuel?

Thank you!
Awesome review! It's so refreshing to see car review channels without the gimmicks and clickbait.
Thanks so much! We always try to keep it real and be as useful as possible
Fantastic review and happy Friday! Sat inside a 23 Venza XLE earlier today and was extremely impressed, tons and tons of rear seat space, way more than I would’ve expected for a two row suv.
Thanks! Yeah the Venza is like a Lexus with Toyota branding in many ways
Wish they offfered the Bose system on the carbon trim.
Same
The make you choose either the engine or the audio.
You don’t get both from my understanding unless you choose the turbo premium plus
The brown of the seats should of been on the dash.i think that would of gave it a even more upscale feel instead of all black
I agree! Imagine the swade in brown matching the seats instead of black 😭
Great review guys! Love this trim and color
I love my 2022 Cx-30 Premium plus! Such a fun car to drive and just enjoy day to day!
I live in Lexington and stopped by Paul miller this morning to look at one of these and now I see this video lmao nice
The carbon turbo trims easily have the nicest interior.
I bought one last week and so far I love it
We do use our turn signals LOL
We can make that joke now that we have a BMW 😂
This is hilarious 😂

4:32 gloss black? Are you serious lol. It would get destroyed during ownership. Micro scratches all over it
I love this color and the seats look awesome

I LOVEEEEEEEE CX-30 interior. It's soooo nice.

Yea I agree
For a daily driver, would you go with this or the Honda Civic Sport Touring?
This one handles winter conditions better imo
I hope they finally added heated mirrors, my only complaint on my 2020!
It looks alright, I like the color!!!
will you be my youtube boyfriend?
😂😂@@braetonwilson4296
Nice review .. question: Can that annoying start-up dinging be turned off?
This (Carbon Turbo) or Kona N-Line? Haven’t test driven either yet but I’m in the market now.
The Mazda will be the better driving model but the Kona will feel more spacious. Those are the main items we think of in comparison
@@CarConfections thanks man. There’s a Corolla Cross Hybrid on the lot w the Kona, so I’m gonna add that to the options. Plan to test drive this week.
I love this model 🏆
Need a hybrid option. The tank at 40L is too small for the size of the car. Range isn't great as a result.
You can just barely squeeze 400 miles out of it at 75mph on flat ground. Otherwise you’re getting gas every 300 or less.
Another great review,I'm stuck between the Mazda CX5 and Subaru Forester please help.regards
Thanks! The biggest differentiator is performance (cx-5) vs. space (Forester), so reflect on which one of those is most important to you
Resale value goes to subaru. Mazda has lower interest rate financing. Coming from a 2024 cx5 turbo owner - car is fun.
Someday, I will buy new 2024 Mazda CX-30.
Mazda sure has some great design-engineers……..the Tail end view looks very similar to the Alfa Stelvio……..
Don´t know about the Zircon Sand color....it got something...don´t know if it´s cool, nice, beautiful or not !?!?!?
good review....this or the audi a1 allstreet 2024.....please review this car.
I understand why mazda doesn’t do it, but I wish the heated steering wheel came on all turbo models and I wish this carbon had paddle shifters as well
Those prices are getting close to CX-5 prices!! Which is a better SUV!!! RIDICULOUS
Does it have ventilated seats ?
Mazda fan here but there is one thing that irritates me about this car is lack of heated seats and usb c ports in the rear seats 🤯 that is just hard for me to process for 2024
My CX-5 has ports in the back .
This car is hardly about the rear seats...
@@MrImaWizard but when it reaches a specific price category, it’s a must
If this was available wihtout Turbo, I'd go buy it tomorrow! Mazda creates loveable cars!
The regular Carbon Edition comes with the 2.5L naturally-aspirated 4-cylinder and is mostly the same as this otherwise
@@CarConfections , sorry, I meant I love the green color and the brown accents in the interior. It's a lovely combination!
But I'm not a fan of turbo due to reliability concerns.
(not green, but "Zircon Sand Metallic", lol)

The Bose used to be in the carbon. My daughters 22 carbon cx 5 has it
The cx30 removed bose for some reason. They said it was due to shortage but that is now a cop out.
I'm not really a car person... but I'm confused why if youre paying that price for something like the carbon edition how it doesnt come with the Bose speakers? seems off to me.

BMW X2 it is for me i guess...
suggestion: don't put a huge honking block overlay and text over the only exterior footage of the vehicle driving!
Insane Mazda dudes.
I was Debating whether to get the CX-30 or the Lexus UX. hard choice for me
Which one you decided?
the sticker that warns you to not roll the window down 🤣
It had just came out of getting it's windows tinted
Mazda really missed the ball by offering a metric ton of trim levels but no hybrid. Their gas mileage is severely behind the competition.
Due to 6 speed, if it was 8 mpg would be much better
I mean not particularly. The base engine performs pretty much in line with the HRV, Kona, corolla cross non hybrid, etc. And those cars all have significantly less inspiring engines
Mazda really does not want drivers playing with the screens while driving ...neither do I .
😢 i dont know why they cancel 12v

The tiny fuel take is this cars biggest problem -- especially with the turbo.
The Mazda3 Turbo is equivalent to the GR Corolla. If GR Corolla is too expensive, Mazda3 Turbo is available for you.
My only issue with cx models are the resale value😢
I know, I'm seeing that, yet, they are as reliable in most cases than many Toyotas and Hondas. About to get a used 2023 cx30 for my mom and been test driving these and they are nice.
Gloss black is not the way to go they should focus in detuning those cladding
Those turn signals at the front are ridiculous 😂
Actually it should be mandatory to have the turn signals mounted away from the headlights. It is way easier to see them that way.
@ those tiny slits ON THE BUMPER are even more difficult to see 🤦🏾♂️

I will buy this if there is a hybrid version 👌
Guess you’re not buying one, huh?
@@thomobrien1854Nope.
The touchscreen is too small
Love the car but i cant unsee how large the cladding is on the sides. It makes the wheels look tiny to me.
สอบถามคนไทยที่เข้ามาดูครับ มีความจะเป็นไปได้ไหมว่าไทยจะมีรุ่นนี้มาปีนี้
Malaysia please
Why is the CX-30 assembled in Mexico?
Suede!? What was Mazda thinking? That's impossible to clean. Enough with the cheap materials.
They need to go with a touchscreen.
When using apple car play or android auto it's touch screen
Mazda makes cars for car reviewers. Few others care.
That isn't backed up by the sales numbers. Mazda is one of the highest performing brands in 2024 so far.
IMO I would upgrade to the CX-5. It's a bigger, more comfortable SUV for not that much more. And it's assembled in Japan. CX-30 is assembled in Mexico. Japan is ALWAYS better.
This is much more of a driver's car than the CX-5. It's a tall hatchback, really, as opposed to a medium SUV like the 5.
Black wheels are getting old...car needs a redesign
I am NOT a fan of chrome or silver wheels, but at this price point, buying some new wheels shouldn't break the bank.
If you breathe too hard on instrument cluster, it'll scratch
I hope that ridiculous chime can be turned off….? 😊
Wear seatbelt before starting and there won't be any

Check out “Riati’s Rides”, he covers the high end models .
Suede should stay in the 70s/80s. It’s not going to age well. I love Mazda but their entire lineup needs a major update. All the tech is looking old.
Thats an exaggeration. Nothing looks particularly old about the tech its just a preference.

The CX-30 and CX-5 turbos are both $38 grand. WHY? The CX-30 turbo is made in Mexico, the cx-5 is bigger and made in Japan.
Anything more than 50dB is too much

“Badass 300” … really? 2018 … really?
TIL a $35,000 semi-luxury crossover is a cheap vehicle.
If you say " mpg" that says nothing in the modern world,, i will leave this sajt
It only comes in that one color and the interior doesn't even match? 😮💨 This is silly.
How many ound feeeujdjdhx did you say. Ever heard of the modern world,, It is Nm
Sorry, but the exterior and interior colours just don’t go together unless you’re colour blind! Come on Mazda, you can do better!
That tiny screen is a joke. My phone is bigger than that
Your phone has a 10 inch screen? Must be pretty cutting edge
I would prefer it not to be there at all. It is a distraction. When driving it should fold down.
