About the 2023 Mazda MX-30
The 2023 MX-30 belongs to the first generation and is the second and final U.S. model year.
Mazda positioned the MX-30 as a small electric crossover for short daily driving, with more emphasis on design, cabin materials, and steering feel than on maximum driving range. Its main identity points are the reverse-opening rear doors, a warm interior with cork and recycled materials, and a compact electric powertrain sized for city use and routine commuting. In the U.S. market, it stood apart more for style and craftsmanship than for long-distance electric travel.
The MX-30 remains a small, city-focused electric crossover offered in EV and Premium Plus trims. Both have a 35.5-kWh battery, front-wheel drive, reverse-opening rear doors, an 8.8-inch infotainment display, and heated front seats. Premium Plus adds Bose audio, a heated steering wheel, a surround-view camera, and extra driver-assistance features.
