Serving Chicago, IL

The 2023 Mazda CX-30 and the Mazda CX-5 from McGrath City Mazda are striking crossovers that deliver the impressive features and capabilities you expect from your next vehicle. While these models share some similarities, the subcompact Mazda CX-30 and the compact Mazda CX-5 are excitingly unique in many ways. Let's delve into a detailed comparison of these popular crossovers to help you determine which one suits you best.

Performance

Both models are engineered to generate excitement and confidence on the road, but they differ. The 2023 Mazda CX-30's first five trims draw 191 horsepower from a four-cylinder, 2.5-liter engine, while the top two Mazda CX-30 trims are equipped with a more powerful 250-horsepower, turbo 2.5-liter engine. These systems include all-wheel drive and a six-speed automatic transmission. On the other hand, the Mazda CX-5 also offers similar engine options but produces 187 horsepower and 250 horsepower, respectively.

Appearance

The Mazda CX-30 and Mazda CX-5 boast beautiful designs with smooth, descending contouring over the sides and rigorous black molding. The Mazda CX-30 features taller side door panels with shorter windows and a steeply-raked liftgate, giving it a sporty appearance. The hood has an athletic arch, complemented by a wraparound element on the bumper and a chrome-adorned grille. The thin, angled design of the headlights adds to its striking look. On the other hand, the Mazda CX-5's roof is curved and drops across a barely angled liftgate, while its black grille pairs with a smaller lower fascia and triangular headlights.

Features

When it comes to features, the 2023 Mazda CX-30 and the Mazda CX-5 are comparably equipped with many of the same amenities. These include a surround-view camera, parking sensors, traffic jam assist, a head-up display, a premium Bose audio system with 12 speakers, heated seats, leather upholstery, a sunroof, a drowsy driver monitor, and seamless smartphone integration through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, among numerous others. The Mazda CX-5 goes a step further by offering additional features like wood trim, ambient cabin lights, a wireless charging pad, and heated rear seats.
