2022 Mazda CX-30 or 2022 Mazda CX-5: Which is Right for you?

Mazda uses the best elements the automotive industry has to offer in terms of performance, materials and chassis dynamics to provide drivers and their families with and enhanced experience at the wheel. Whether you’re looking for riveting performances, maximum value, ample space, technologies or a good mix of everything, Mazda has the vehicle you need.

Here, we compare the Mazda CX-30 subcompact crossover and the Mazda CX-5 compact SUV to find out which one is right for you.

Size matters in the Mazda CX-30 and Mazda CX-5

Being a subcompact crossover, the CX-30 is a bit smaller than the CX-5. This makes it nimbler and more efficient, but it also translates to less passenger and cargo space. For example, the CX-30 provides 572 litres of cargo space behind the rear seats and 1,280 litres when this seating area is folded. The CX-5 bumps these numbers up to 875 litres and 1,687 litres. This enables owners and their families to benefit from more wiggle room, but also lets them bring more stuff along for the ride.

Power and efficiency in the Mazda CX-30 and Mazda CX-5

The CX-30 offers a choice of three engines while the CX-5 only has two. This provides CX-30 drivers with a less powerful, but more efficient standard powertrain. With the four cylinder, 2.0-litre unit, the CX-30 can consume as little as 8.9 L/100 km in the city and 7.1 L/100 km on the highway. On the CX-5, you get standard i-Activ AWD, but the fuel consumption climbs up to 10.2 L/100 km in the city and 8.2 L/100 km on the highway with the smaller engine.

Both the CX-30 and CX-5 are available with the super powerful turbocharged Skyactiv-G 2.5T engine that outputs as much as 250 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque. This boosts driveability and fun at the wheel for both models, especially when compared to the competition.

The 2022 Mazda CX-30 and CX-5 also differ in terms of pricing. The CX-30 starts at $26,350 and the CX-5 starts at $30,500. Both vehicles benefit from Mazda’s unlimited mileage warranty.
