Owners tend to be positive about the Mazda CX-30, often praising its quiet, well‑finished cabin, engaging driving feel and overall perceived value. Some owners mention strengths like refinement and build quality, while others call out drawbacks such as high cost for smaller engines, a tight fit for taller occupants, and mixed opinions on oversized wheel styling. These comments are relatively brief and somewhat mixed, so those negatives may not reflect every owner’s experience.

The Mazda is a more elegant car, less cumbersome and, even though it’s also an SUV, it feels less like an SUV and more like a regular car. Besides having an interior that feels more "like a real car" and less "smartphone," the finishes are also superior and the dynamic behavior is better. The lower power is made up for by being about 100 kg lighter, a lower vehicle height (more aerodynamic efficiency), and a smoother drive thanks to a high-displacement, non-turbo engine. The equipment is very similar but the Mazda just has more "class." Prices are comparable with equal equipment, and the difference is size: the Tucson being 11 cm longer is noticeable, especially in the boot — the Mazda’s is fine, but the Tucson’s is cavernous. If you don’t actually need something that big, I recommend the Mazda.

Nice luxury car, although I'm not sure I find the oversized rims that attractive. On the other hand, I like the Mazda 3 better.
