2025 Mazda CX-30 Cons
1. Not The Most Cargo Space
Once you step inside the 2025 Mazda CX-30, you’ll find a cabin that feels like it belongs in a luxury vehicle. Mazda made sure to equip the CX-30 with high-quality materials, thoughtful craftsmanship, and intuitive features.- At 20.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats, it lags slightly behind competitors like the Honda HR-V or Subaru Crosstrek.
2. No Touch Screen Capabilities
Since we are nitpicking, there are no touchscreen options for the infotainment system even though it still has just about every feature you would think to use.- Some drivers find the rotary dial less intuitive than direct touch.
