The 2020 Mazda CX-30 that arrived in the U.S. on Wednesday at the 2019 Los Angeles Vehicle Display raises large queries about tiny crossovers in the Mazda lineup. It would feel as if the bigger CX-30 would switch the CX-3 subcompact crossover, but in its place it slots concerning the CX-three and CX-five, Mazda spokesman Drew Carey informed us on the exhibit ground.
The new design is equivalent to the CX-four bought in China.  
Based mostly on the redesigned Mazda3 compact sedan and hatch, the 2020 Mazda CX-30 has extra inside area and cargo quantity than the cramped CX-three, which is more compact than the Mazda3 hatchback. Mazda suggests the CX-30 blends coupe-like design and style with crossover-like proportions, but it appears like any other tiny Mazda crossover. The grille is decrease and stretched into the LEDs, and the CX-30 receives a mesh insert in its place of slats. It appears extra like a smile than the opened-mouth giggle on the CX-three. Due to the fact it’s bigger, the black cladding down the sides and around the wheel arches is extra well balanced and proportional than on the more compact area of the CX-three, and 16-inch aluminum alloy wheels are typical. 
The most major change is at the rear. The rear window is extra built-in into the overall body layout and the arched liftgate provides it a rounded type that also will help the functionality. It’s only 5 inches lengthier than the CX-three, and about an inch broader and taller, but has almost double the cargo quantity at 20.two cubic toes (12.four cu.ft. in the CX-three), very same as the Mazda3 hatchback.
Even while the CX-30 is as large as the Mazda3, it rides 5 inches taller for that larger seat situation coveted by crossover consumers. That, alongside with narrower pillars, should really boost entrance and rear outward eyesight, which is a large grievance in the CX-three. Other inside enhancements in area include things like a slanted rear footwell for a greater in shape for rear seat travellers. 
The controls and inside layout in the CX-30 is regular with other Mazda motor vehicles. An eight.eight-inch show display embedded in the sprint is managed by a dial in the console. The horizontal line of vents and slim band of local climate controls generate a thoroughly clean, spartan seem that matches Mazda’s shift into extra upscale refinement.
Typical functions throughout the foundation CX-30 Pick, Most popular, and Top quality trims include things like Mazda Linked Expert services as a result of a smartphone application, which allows distant start off as nicely as motor vehicle company and position updates. Wi-fi is involved for a 6-thirty day period demo, and two USB ports occur typical.

Pick trim ($24,945) involves Apple CarPlay and Android Vehicle compatibility, blind-place screens, rear cross-targeted visitors notify, keyless entry, artificial leather-based seats, leather-based steering wheel and change knob, as nicely as 18-inch alloy wheels.
