About the Mazda MX-30
The MX-30 e-Skyactiv First Edition launched Mazda's electric era with a focus on urban efficiency and driver engagement rather than outright range. It features a relatively small 35.5kWh battery to reduce weight and environmental impact, resulting in a modest WLTP range of 124 miles. The interior is a standout, utilising sustainable materials like recycled plastic and cork—a nod to Mazda's origins as a cork manufacturer. Its most distinctive exterior feature is the 'freestyle' rear-hinged doors, reminiscent of the RX-8 sports car, which provide a pillarless opening to the cabin.

Mazda MX-30 fun facts
- The interior uses cork harvested from the bark of trees without felling them, celebrating Mazda's 1920 founding as the Toyo Kogyo Cork Company.
- The 'freestyle' rear doors open to 80 degrees, while the front doors open to 82 degrees, creating a wide, unobstructed entry point.
- Mazda deliberately limited the battery size to 35.5kWh to keep the total CO2 emissions over the vehicle's life cycle comparable to a diesel Mazda 3.
