The 2026 Mazda CX-30 is thoughtfully designed inside, outside, and under the hood. It comes standard with i-Activ AWD®, Off-Road Traction Assist, a six-speed automatic transmission, and a 2.5-liter Skyactiv®-G engine in one of two variations. The first version, standard in the first six trims, is a strong four-cylinder option that generates 186 horsepower, 186 pound-feet of torque, and an EPA-estimated Mazda CX-30 MPG of 24/31/27 (City/Highway/Combined).1
Upper trims feature a Dynamic Pressure turbocharged four-cylinder edition with even more power. It churns out 227 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque on 87-octane fuel or 250 horsepower and 320 pound-feet of torque on 93-octane fuel. As a result, it renders an EPA-estimated 22/30/25 MPG (City/Highway/Combined).1 Before we dig into gas mileage more, let's review the Mazda CX-30 SUV's sleek and sophisticated trim levels.
As we mentioned, the standard version of the Skyactiv®-G engine is equipped in the first six trims, and the upgraded Skyactiv®-G variant is found in the top two models. Below is an overview of the full lineup:
Aside from the impeccable Mazda CX-30 gas mileage figures, what can you expect from these trim levels? You can find an assortment of amenities. For instance, each trim includes a push-button start, Bluetooth®, dual USB-C ports, and Apple CarPlay® and Android Audio™ integration. Higher trims upgrade to more luxurious amenities, such as a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a leather-wrapped gear selector, and leather seating surfaces that add a touch of elegance.
Upholstery choices range from durable cloth to leatherette to leather, which are offered in colors like Black, Greige, Red, and White, depending on the trim. The audio system consists of an eight-speaker Mazda Harmonic Acoustics system or a 12-speaker Bose® system to boost your music and media enjoyment.
This Mazda SUV comes standard with an 8.8-inch center display; a 10.25-inch display is equipped in higher trims. Choose the Mazda CX-30 2.5 S Preferred or above to gain a wireless phone charger. Meanwhile, wireless smartphone integration is equipped in the 2.5 S Select Sport and all trims that follow.
In terms of safety, the 2026 Mazda CX-30 is standard with Forward Smart Brake Support, Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop and Go, Blind Spot Monitoring, a Lane Departure Warning System, and more. If you opt for a higher trim, you have access to features like Traffic Sign Recognition, Front and Rear Parking Sensors, an Adaptive Front-Lighting System, and a 360-Degree View Monitor.
Crossover SUVs are designed to deliver top-notch performance in a wide range of circumstances, including long-distance drives. When you choose the 2026 Mazda CX-30, you not only gain the benefit of up to an EPA-estimated 24/31/27 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)1 but also a 12.7-gallon fuel tank. You can expect to drive an EPA-estimated maximum of 343 combined miles on one tank of gas2 with the standard engine. However, your mileage can vary based on driving habits, traffic, and weather conditions.
With the available Dynamic Pressure engine, which delivers an EPA-estimated 22/30/25 MPG (City/Highway/Combined),1 you could drive up to an EPA-estimated 318 combined miles per tank of gas,2 depending on the same factors mentioned above. The Mazda CX-30 features a handy trip computer that displays current and average fuel economy, along with distance-to-empty readings, to help you optimize your time and money.
The advanced direct-injection engines of the 2026 Mazda CX-30 can run perfectly well on regular 87-octane fuel. However, for maximum horsepower and torque, premium 93-octane fuel is recommended for the turbocharged unit. Your fuel economy should be roughly the same no matter which pump you reach for, so only the price per gallon will be noticeable.
