2022 Mazda CX-30: Skyactiv-G Trio on the Menu!

Mazda’s SUV doesn’t do things by halves: to appeal to a wide range of consumers, it offers three engine choices!

With the most economical version, the Mazda CX-30 GX, you get the 2.0L Skyactiv-G engine, which develops 155 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque. It has the advantage of consuming only 9.4 L/100 km in the city and 7.7 L/100 km on the highway.

The 2.5L Skyactiv-G engine is next under the hood of the GS and GT versions with its 186 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque. Finally, for those who like a little more thrill, the GT version can also be equipped with the turbo version of this engine. This Mazda CX-30 Turbo delivers 250 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque!

Mazda SUV: A Stable and Pleasant Ride

The entire lineup gets a 6-speed automatic transmission with a manual mode; steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters are added to the GT, which has a sportier feel.

For this new model year, Mazda Canada is making i-Activ all-wheel drive standard on all models! With this system that monitors driving parameters 200 times per second, you can drive with confidence in summer and winter. G Plus vector control and off-road traction control also contribute to this stability.

And that’s without overlooking the common thread that runs through all Mazda cars: driving pleasure. Mazda CX-30 reviews confirm this:

“The sound of the engine is very convincing, the steering is both precise and just heavy enough, and the automatic transmission […] works harmoniously with the engine.”

Vincent Aubé, L’Annuel de l’automobile

Mazda Connected Services: Now Standard

This year, the entire lineup is getting this set of practical everyday remote features. It’s a phone application that allows you, among other things, to:

Remote start
Lock and unlock doors
Locate the vehicle
Check the vehicle’s condition and health status
And much more!

Of course, you’ll also be well connected in the Mazda CX-30 with the Mazda Connect system. This one makes use of an 8.8-inch touchscreen that’s compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and incorporates features like steering wheel audio controls and Bluetooth.

With the Mazda CX-30 GT, you can even add an optional 12-speaker Bose audio system!

Mazda CX-30: A Quiet Interior

The Mazda CX-30 SUV was built to reduce unwanted noise and vibration, so you can enjoy a quiet, fatigue-free ride.

The Mazda CX-30 interior is also ergonomic and comfortable. Standard on the GT and optional with the Luxury Package on the Mazda CX-30 GS, you can enjoy features like:

A 10-way adjustable driver’s seat with lumbar support
Memory positions
Anti-glare exterior mirrors
Auto-dimming interior mirrors

Leather upholstery is available with the top-of-the-line version, which can even be finished in a luxurious garnet red color as an option. The Mazda SUV is spacious for your family and offers a 572L trunk capacity, which can be increased to 1,280L with the rear seats down.
