Only drove it home from the dealer

Purchased it for my son. Will suit his needs for narrow streets in Boston neighborhoods where he attends school. Small car that will fit in tight parking spaces.

I love my Mazda. It is the safest vehicle I have ever owned. I am looking forward to driving it to and from work. I suggest you buy one too!

Great car but AC sucks

Love our cx30, I started driving it since my mom got a new car and noticed that every time you accelerate and your AC is on it will stop blowing cold and instead sends power to the engine since the ac is on. Mazda did this on purpose to achieve higher mpg..I think it sucks. I don’t want to get rid of it but it’s becoming uncomfortable.

Love ❤️ It!

The Mazda CX30 is a great new addition to the Mazda lineup. It has sleek lines and a great interior. This car has nice pickup and you get a lot of bang for your buck!

Fun, versatile vehicle

I have had my CX-30 for just over a month. It's a great combination of a fun, sporty drive and convenience/space. There's a little bit of a learning curve with all of the technology - but it's all been good. I am picky with how a car feels and drives - and it does great! Not disappointed with this car at all!

Am I dreaming?

Absolutely love my black Mazda CX30 2020 model. Tinted windows and couldn’t ask for more. First time owning a Mazda and I am forever happy and grateful. It’s my dream car and color! Seriously.

LUV My MAZDA!

Shopped all the compact CUVs .. Mazda CX-30 had the best styling and performance of the lot. Looks great, drives great ... could not be happier.

My new CX-30 after one month...

Another very good Mazda product, but it needs several tweaks to make it an all-around good Mazda like my 2008 Mazda3. Biggest complaint is the jerky transmission and the RIDICULOUS downshifts when in cruise control mode. Downshifting two gears and then a third for a half a second is jarring. I found myself having to disengage the cruise control many times just to keep it from running the revs way up to 6500K just to maneuver the slight hill. Another question is the “dead-pedal” of the gas pedal when at highway speed while in manual mode. Was in the slow lane and forgot I was in manual mode and had to smash the pedal to get out of the way of a merging car. I smashed it twice, had to look down, pop it back into automatic and then smash the pedal. Luckily it was far enough back for all this to happen and then safely move over. Real accident potential.
