mazda cx-3 vs cx-30 2023 Page 4

Choosing between the Mazda CX-3 and CX-30 (2023) is like picking coffee sizes: same flavour, different caffeine kick.

The CX-3 is cheaper and easier to park, while the CX-30 brings extra space, a calmer ride and more safety tech—with a higher price to match.

CX-3 pros: compact, light on fuel and insurance, sprightly in traffic; CX-3 cons: tight rear seat and boot, more road noise, fewer plush features.

CX-30 pros: roomier cabin and boot, more refined ride, broader safety and AWD options; CX-30 cons: costs more, slightly thirstier, bigger footprint.

If you haul people and prams, the CX-30 feels grown-up; if you haunt tight city car parks, the CX-3 is the stress-saver.

No winner here—pick by space needs and budget, then enjoy Mazda’s tidy dynamics either way.
