Robert Barry · 0 comments

Mazda Australia says it is boosting customer choice by introducing a new powertrain, new model grades and more features to the CX-30 and Mazda3 range of vehicles.

It has added the G20e M Hybrid engine and an SP grade to the CX-30 and Mazda3 line-ups. 

“Constant evolution and improvement is fundamental to Mazda’s ethos; it’s so important to pass on the benefits of new technologies to our customers as soon and as often as we can,” Mazda Australia marketing director Alastair Doak says.

“These updates expand our range and product offering further, giving our customers more opportunity to find their perfect fit.” 

The Mazda CX-30 and Mazda3 will offer enhanced efficiency and advanced safety technology in G20e Evolve M Hybrid Vision Technology.   

Making its debut in the Mazda MX-30, e-Skyactiv G combines the virtues of Skyactiv G with the M Hybrid system to provide improved fuel efficiency, a smoother transition from idling stops and a more refined driving feel.  

 Each model line will bolster safety and style, adding a new SP Vision Technology grade that pairs Mazda’s most advanced i-Activsense features with interior and exterior visual highlights to define a stylish new grade

The Mazda CX-30 Touring is more customisable than ever says the brand; the SP Vision Technology variant is available with a choice of 2.0-litre, 2.5-litre or 2.5-litre AWD. It adds Burgundy leather trim, black dash and door card accents, black metallic 18-alloy wheels and black side mirror caps. 

The Mazda3 Evolve grade will be renewed as G25 Evolve SP. Adding a sporty flair to hatch or sedan, the new SP variant adds black exterior mirrors, black 18-inch alloy wheels, black grille and black cloth seats with red accents says the distributor.  

Further changes across the nameplates have been made to boost equipment levels and customisation, including the addition of Platinum Quartz paint.  

The updated Mazda CX-30 and Mazda3 are currently available for pre-order through authorised dealerships says the distributor.
