What kind of car is the 2025 Mazda CX-30?

The 2025 Mazda CX-30 is a subcompact crossover SUV. "Crossover" just means that it combines the practicality of an SUV with the handling and fuel efficiency of a sedan. 


How is the 2024 Mazda CX-30 different from the 2025 Mazda CX-30?

Let's compare the two models head to head:


Powertrain

Not much is different here. Both model years offer the same two engine options:

  1. A standard 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 191 horsepower.

  2. An available turbocharged 2.5-liter engine that produces up to 250 horsepower. Both engines are paired with a six-speed automatic transmission and standard all-wheel drive.


Exterior

Again, both models are fairly similar in terms of looks, except for one advantage that the 2025 model has-a new color option, Aero Gray Metallic.


But besides that, both models feature bold lines, a wide grille with chrome accents, and slim headlights. Other exterior features like adaptive headlights, heated side mirrors, and automatic windshield wipers are shared by both model years.


Interior & Tech

This is where the newer model shows a slight advantage. The 2025 Mazda CX-30 features an updated navigation system with over-the-air updates and real-time traffic data, keeping its navigation up-to-date at all times.


Several safety features that were previously optional on some trims are now standard across the board for 2025, including automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, and blind spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert.


Most importantly, the 2025 model has a new base trim-the 2.5S-lowering the barrier of entry for buyers.

The answer to that depends on what your priorities are. Is affordability paramount to you? If yes, then a new 2024 Mazda CX-30 for sale in Durham and the surrounding areas might be the move for you.
