Detailed analysis of the Mazda MX-30 Origin · 145 CV (2020-2022)
General description
The 2020 Mazda MX-30 Origin presents itself as a bold and different proposition in the growing electric vehicle segment. Priced at 33,165 euros, this 5-door, 145 hp compact SUV aims to win over those who value distinctive design and a pleasant driving experience, albeit with a more limited range. It's a car that invites reflection on the actual use we give to our electric vehicles.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the MX-30, the sensation is one of agility and control. Its 145 hp and 271 Nm of electric motor torque offer instant response, allowing for 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 9.7 seconds, more than enough for daily urban use and occasional getaways. The top speed of 140 km/h is adequate for most situations. The suspension, McPherson type at the front and torsion beam at the rear, along with precise electric steering, contribute to a balanced and comfortable dynamic behavior. The 35.5 kWh battery, located in the center, helps achieve a low center of gravity, improving stability. However, its WLTP range of 200 km can generate some anxiety on long trips, inviting more careful route planning.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the Mazda MX-30 is, without a doubt, one of its strongest and most differentiating points. With dimensions of 4395 mm long, 1795 mm wide, and 1555 mm high, it presents a very attractive coupé SUV silhouette. The reverse-opening 'freestyle' doors, a nod to the iconic RX-8, add a touch of originality and functionality, facilitating access to the rear seats. The interior is a display of sustainable materials and minimalist design, with a floating center console and cork details that evoke the brand's heritage. It's a car that doesn't go unnoticed, with aesthetics that combine robustness and elegance.
Technology and features
In terms of technology, the MX-30 incorporates the essentials for a modern electric car. Its 35.5 kWh lithium-ion battery allows for a range of 200 km according to the WLTP cycle. Fast charging with direct current (DC) reaches 50 kW, allowing recharging from 10% to 80% in approximately 36 minutes. With alternating current (AC), the maximum power is 6.6 kW, which translates to about 10 hours for a full charge. The infotainment system is intuitive and compatible with major connectivity platforms. Mazda has opted for proven and reliable technology, without excesses, focusing on efficiency and user experience.
Competition
The Mazda MX-30 faces increasingly fierce competition in the compact electric SUV segment. Its main rivals include models such as the Hyundai Kona Electric, the Kia e-Niro, the Peugeot e-2008, or the MG ZS EV. Compared to them, the MX-30 stands out for its unique design and its focus on material quality and driving experience. However, its more limited range can be a decisive factor for some buyers, as many of its competitors offer superior ranges at similar or slightly higher prices. It's a car for those who prioritize style and driving dynamics over pure range.
Conclusion
The Mazda MX-30 Origin is a car that appeals more to emotion than to pure reason. Its distinctive design, carefully crafted interior, and pleasant driving dynamics make it a very attractive option for those looking for an electric car with personality and predominantly urban or interurban use. While its 200 km range can be a handicap for long trips, for daily use it is more than sufficient, and its fast charging capability partially mitigates this limitation. It is a true Mazda, with a focus on the driver and a build quality that is perceived in every detail. A brave and different proposal in the current electric landscape.
