To cater to a broader spectrum of buyers, Mazda offers both the options to drive the 2021 CX-30 models with front- wheels and with all four wheels which is yet another class exclusive quality it beholds.

It provides the 2021 Mazda CX-30 with 250 hp which is more than sufficient to handle any SUV like driving act.
For the year 2021, Mazda has now prepared its flagship model CX-30 with all the desirable functionalities that display the magic of latest technological advancements. Right from the infotainment system to the safety measure, the 2021 Mazda CX-30 models have it all.

Impressive Mileage
Though not class leading, but the fuel economy rates scored by the 2021 Mazda CX-30 models are quite impressive, said a recent buyer of this model whom we met at the Mazda dealer Moreno Valley showroom complex.
He confirmed that when driven with the FWD configuration, the 2021 Mazda CX-30 models return 25 mpg of mileage in the city, 33 mpg on the highways, and 28 mpg from a combined trip as rated by the EPA. So, when we asked about the scores it can score when the model will be an AWD one, they furnished us with the EPA figures that read 24 mpg when driven in the city roads, 31 mpg on highway speed, and 26 mpg when a trip combines both.
