2020 Mazda CX-30 just launched

Following its preview earlier in November, Bermaz Motors has finally launched the Mazda CX-30. Imported from Japan, the Mazda 3-based 2.0-litre crossover is priced just slightly above the entry level 1.5-litre variant Mazda 3. It's a very good value proposition. 

2020 Mazda CX-30 highlights

3 variants are on offer. The prices are several hundred Ringgits lower than the estimated price announced previously:

The specifications between the 2.0L Petrol High and 1.8L Diesel High are identical, all the way to the 18-inch wheels.

The 8 colour options include the headlining Soul Red, Machine Grey, Snowflake White Pearl, Deep Crystal Blue, Sonic Silver, Polymetal Gray, Titanium Flash, and Jet Black - all available at no extra cost, unlike the locally-assembed CX-5.

Power tailgate and powered sunroof are available on both High variants only.

On the inside, you get fabric seats for the basic 2.0L while the High variants get black leather upholstery instead. There are also memory settings for the driver seat for both High variants and 10-way power adjustments.

In terms of infotainment, all 3 variants come installed with an 8.8-inch screen. This screen is not touchscreen but is adjusted via Voice Command or the Multi-Function Commander Control.

There isn’t a time in memory that doesn’t involve staring at cars. After discovering the excitement of watching Schumacher vs Hakkinen, Formula 1 became a major part of life. The love for cars and F1 ultimately led to a job with CAR Magazine. The untimely death of the magazine meant a hiatus from cars at lifestyle women’s magazine Marie Claire before another opportunity came knocking again.
