Sleek and Modern Design Exterior
The exterior is defined by clean lines, minimal styling elements, and bold and modern lighting for both the front and rear. The lighting for this crossover gives it a feel of high class. The other feature of the vehicle worth mentioning is the ‘Freestyle Doors‘, where doors open in reverse to make easier access for both front and rear passengers. These entrance doors not only look good but also make it easier for someone to get in and out of the car in an easier and safest way.
Greener and Soothing Interior
The MX-30 has been conceived with extremely thoughtful interiors that maximize comfort without trading off on style. To maintain beauty besides an inner cabin with a cork layer, it creates a cozy and cozy welcome ambiance inside the cabin. Mazda has, on the other hand, committed to sustainability by choosing eco-friendly materials for its product. For example, the Breathe Fabric used for the door trims comprises recycled plastic bottles.
In addition, Mazda has collaborated with Bose to create an exceptional audio experience. Its MX-30 is equipped, after all, with a 12-speaker sound system from the mighty Bose, strategically dispersed to ensure an excellent sound experience across the cabin, perfect for long drives or city commutes.
Power and Performance
In other words, the e-Skyactiv electric motor of the Mazda MX-30 crossover SUV develops 143 PS and 271 Nm of torque. This was to ensure that the car not just happens to be environmentally friendly but as well happen to be strong, providing the cyclist with a pretty exciting drive. Front-wheel drive and direct-drive transmission will strengthen vehicle efficiency and responsiveness.
Notably, the MX-30 is equipped with an Electronic G-Vectoring Control Plus system that would ensure greater stability of the vehicle in terms of torque distribution. This means it would then help the car to be even more compliant while cutting across any type of road, leaving no lumpiness on its wake on a sharp turn.
Range and Battery
The MX-30 utilized a lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 35.5 kWh, which allows the car to achieve up to 200 km on a full charge based on the WLTP cycle. This makes it perfectly suitable for urban and suburban environments and an excellent choice for the Indonesian automotive market, which still has underdeveloped electric infrastructure there.
Pricing and Color Options
So, we get to know the price for this one. Mazda MX-30 price is IDR 860 million, and from this month, the price already includes a wall charger and a portable charger that are given.
