Mazda MX-30 Lease Deals

Although it’s marketed as a small SUV or crossover, the Mazda MX-30 is really a raised hatchback in both size and shape. This makes it slightly less spacious in the rear than some alternatives, but the 2 occupants up front will have no problem getting comfortable. The rear seats will happily accommodate 2 adults, although the centre-rear seat is best suited for children. The tiny rear windows can also make some passengers feel a little claustrophobic on longer trips.

Boot space is adequate, with up to 366 litres available with the rear seats up. This is slightly ahead of the Hyundai Kona Electric, which has 332 litres.

This is another department where Mazda hasn’t followed the herd. Where others have used a large and heavy battery pack for maximum range, the MX-30 concentrates on being efficient by using a smaller and lighter pack (35.5kWh). Its lighter weight also lowers the carbon footprint during production. The compromise is that its range is only 124 miles. But this should still be plenty for most commuters – and charging from 20- to 80% at a 50kW public charger takes just 36 minutes.

If you need additional range, both the Hyundai and the Kia E-Niro are capable of doing more than 280 miles when equipped with their largest battery packs.

Being electric, the MX-30 is subject to just a 1% benefit-in-kind (BIK) tax compared to more than 32% for a conventional petrol or diesel engine. It’s also eligible for the plug-in vehicle grant scheme (PIVG) and Mazda offers a free wallbox charger, too.

Mazda produces well-built and reliable cars, and the MX-30 should be no different. Every Mazda comes standard with a 3-year/60,000-mile warranty – and the battery pack has an 8-year warranty.

The Mazda MX-30 has 366 litres of boot space, which expands to 1171 litres with the rear seats down. This is pretty much in the middle for its sector. If you opt for the upgraded Bose sound system, which takes up more space, these figures drop slightly to 341 and 1146 litres respectively.

The base SE-L Lux is so comprehensively equipped that going for one of the other trims is unnecessary. All versions are offered with the same powertrain so the Sport Lux, First Edition (available in limited numbers) and the GT Sport Tech trim add only minor upgrades, such as an improved sound system and a few additional driver aids.

Yes, all trims come standard with a reversing camera while upper trims also get a parking aid with a full surround-view camera.

Yes. The MX-30 is Mazda’s first fully electric vehicle. There are plans to introduce a range-extending part-petrol version in the future, though.

It’s a vehicle that’s fit for purpose. And its eco-friendly design philosophy resonates with the increasingly environmentally conscious consumer.
