With a combination of modern styling, a chassis that handles well, and Mazda’s SKYACTIV engine technology, the compact Mazda CX-30 stands out in the crowded crossover SUV segment. This charming small SUV exudes a premium feel, whether viewed from the outside or while relaxing in the cabin. It competes with other subcompact SUVs on the market.

Interior Review of the 2026 Mazda CX-30

All trims of the 2026 Mazda CX-30 are crafted from high-quality materials and feature thoughtful design.

Up front, the CX-30 offers decent headroom and legroom, while the rear seats provide more headroom. Despite being a compact vehicle, this SUV provides ample storage space for groceries or overnight bags. There’s 20.2 cubic feet of space behind the rear seats, which fold down to expand cargo capacity to 45.2 cubic feet. You’ll also appreciate the numerous in-cabin storage options, including a glove compartment, covered storage in the front center console armrest, and storage pockets and bottle holders at the front door.

The base S model of the 2026 Mazda CX-30 features cloth-trimmed sport seats and door inserts. You’ll find leatherette-trimmed sport seats on the Select Sport and S Preferred models. White leatherette sport seats with gray accents are standard on the S Aire Edition and Turbo Aire Edition models. The S Premiums, Turbo Premium Plus, and S Carbon Edition models come with leather sport seats. There are heated front seats on every trim level except the base S trim.

You’ll find two complete sets of LATCH connectors for installing child safety seats in the back. There’s also a tether anchor for the rear middle seat, and you can borrow lower anchors from adjoining seats.

Except for the base trim, all CX-30 models have rear privacy glass. A power sliding-glass moonroof with a one-touch open feature and an interior sunshade is standard on upper trims. Rear power liftgates are standard on Premium, Turbo Aire Edition, and Premium Plus trims. The latter is the only model with a roof-mounted “shark fin” antenna.

Standard on the base S trim are 16-inch aluminum alloy wheels. The S Premium and S Preferred come with 18-inch alloy wheels in silver metallic. The rest have 18-inch alloy wheels, but they’re black metallic.
