Full review of the 2023 Mazda CX-30 SUV, including the Astina grade, 2.5-litre AWD engine, performance, handling, ride, quality, price, features, and warranty.

Is the $45,000 Mazda CX-30 Astina the nicest small crossover you can buy for under $50,000? Review includes power, braking, ride quality, handling, price and features.

The Mazda CX-30 is a small SUV that sells strongly in Australia. It is available in many grades and 3 engines but the G25 Astina AWD is the flagship standard petrol model with 139kW of power (186hp). Sadly the turbocharged CX-30 is not sold here.
