The quirky Mazda MX-30 crossover is unchanged for 2022, apart from a minor price rise.
All mild-hybrid versions of the MX-30 received a $200 price increase in April 2022, along with many other Mazda models.
Pricing for the all-electric E35 Astina remains unchanged.
The 2022 Mazda MX-30 range now starts at $34,190 before on-road costs for the G20e Evolve, and extends to $65,490 before on-road costs for the E35 Astina.
A Mazda Australia spokesperson said this price increase is due to supply chain constraints, as well as production costs.
With Freestyle Doors and an eco-friendly interior that nods to Mazda’s past, the MX-30 in M Hybrid form is a quirky rival to the Volkswagen T-Roc and Toyota C-HR, and in Electric form is a rival to the MG ZS EV and Nissan Leaf.
A rotary range-extender version of the MX-30 has been confirmed for Australia and could arrive as soon as late 2022.
To the end of June 2022, Mazda sold a total of 265 MX-30 models. It was outsold by the likes of the Kia Seltos (4654 sales), Toyota C-HR (4396 sales), Subaru XV (4052 sales), and Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross (3336 sales).
It did outsell the Peugeot 2008 (208 sales), Suzuki S-Cross (77 sales), and the Citroen C4 (67 sales).
