Replaced an older Mazda with this one. Big step up in cargo room; I'd like a little more power from the base engine.

2026 Mazda CX-30 review
Mazda CX-30: a class leader on the details. Illustrative review
8.5/10 OffLot expert score
The 2026 Mazda CX-30 sits near the top of its class. Roomy second row and flexible cargo floor; easy to see out of and park. Price climbs fast with options and engine gets loud under hard acceleration, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $26,000, it undercuts most direct rivals.

Bought it for the school runs and road trips and it has handled everything so far. Fuel economy has been close to the sticker in mixed driving.
