2019 Mazda CX-30 2.0L SKYACTIV-X 4WD Sport Lux

Description

Got this Mazda CX-30 in 2019, and I’ve actually driven it quite a bit—still feels solid and reliable. It’s the Sport Lux trim, so it’s got a bit of that sporty edge without being too flashy. The 2.0L SKYACTIV-X engine with 4WD gives you good grip and a smooth ride, especially on the roads around merseyside. I’ve used it in all sorts of weather, from city drives to longer trips, and it handles well.

It’s got Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, which I use all the time—no need to carry a phone in the car. Front and rear parking sensors help when parking in tight spaces, and the Bluetooth keeps me connected without having to fumble with my phone. The dual-zone climate control means I can keep the front and back comfy, which is handy when there’s a kid or a passenger in the back.

The dashboard has that active driving display with traffic sign recognition—helps keep me focused, especially when I’m on the move. 0-62 in about 9 seconds, so it’s not a race car, but it’s quick enough for normal driving. I’ve kept it well maintained, and it’s got a low insurance group, which means cheaper premiums. Also, the CO2 emissions are pretty low, so it’s cleaner and might save a bit on road tax compared to other SUVs.

It’s not flashy, but it does what it’s supposed to—drives well, feels safe, and has all the basics. I’m moving on and thought I’d share it. Still in good shape, just not needing it anymore.
