This is the year that the Japanese automaker Mazda throws its hat in the ring with its first ever 100% electric vehicle, the Mazda MX-30 SUV. Coming soon to Quebec, this model is truly the pitch point for a green energy revolution: a cross between a powerful electric motor and a high-quality interior, this vehicle is sure to win skeptics over! Discover what this new car has to offer with a sneak peek at its key attributes and what makes it such a fun yet practical ride.

Mazda MX-30: A 100% Green Energy Shift!

The Mazda MX-30 will feature an electric motor coupled with 3.5 kWh lithium-ion batteries, generating 144 horsepower and 200 lb-ft of torque. True to its philosophy, the Japanese manufacturer is continually focusing on driving enjoyment, with a focus on its fairly generous electric motor and the new e-Skyactiv technology. The G-Plus vector control and optimal weight distribution also contribute to the vehicle’s overall stability and vehicle handling.

Because Mazda doesn’t do things by halves, the eco-friendly aspect of the car stems not only from its engine, but also from the materials it is made of. Passengers will find a high-end interior that includes 20% recycled plastic, as well as high-quality cork and faux leather. 

This means that sustainable materials have been privileged, yet without compromising cabin comfort, something that has been a cornerstone of the Mazda brand for many years. Furthermore, it is worth noting that the vehicle is exceptionally quiet on board, resulting in a peaceful atmosphere and a more enjoyable music playing experience.

The range is just over 200 km, which is more than enough for the daily commute of a large percentage of the population. For urgent or last-minute use, the 50 kW charging stations take you from 20 to 80% charge in just 36 minutes! 

A quick plug at home also gives you the ability to fully charge the vehicle in 3 to 5 hours, or overnight with regular charging.

On the exterior, the Mazda MX-30 bears some similarities to the CX-30, but its design distinguishes itself from the other models in several ways, including a roof that slopes further back. This confers a sportier image, particularly since the rear half-doors are somewhat suggestive of the automaker’s sportier vehicles. This stylish model is available in 8 colours and has a contrasting roof, a particularly trendy feature in recent years.

When it comes to tech, two displays take centre stage: a touchscreen for climate and heating control and the multimedia entertainment system. The latter is floating, with a shape that resembles a cell phone, is easy to use, and integrates Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. The head-up display is another cutting-edge technological feature included in this car, and it comes with Mazda’s integrated services.

A host of collision-avoidance driving assistance technologies will be included as well, with several warnings and intelligent emergency braking thrown in.

In summary, the Mazda MX-30 is an all-electric automobile that promises to win over many gasoline-powered car enthusiasts! Its driveability, worthy of the Mazda lineage, its ecological appeal in terms of both the engine and the interior, and many other characteristics will surely turn heads and win hearts!
