Overview
The Mazda CX-30 is a five-seat C-segment SUV for drivers who want a compact petrol crossover with a 1,998 cc, 162 hp engine and automatic transmission. The Malaysian line-up spans front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive versions, so it suits buyers who place drivetrain choice ahead of electrification. Prices start from RM122,409.
CX-30 in 2026 — what's new
The CX-30 remains the 2020-generation model in 2026, with a next-generation replacement not due until Mazda’s fiscal year 2030. Malaysia carries on with four 2.0-litre petrol automatic variants: Standard, High, High+ and High+ Premium. Japan’s 2026 CX-30 gains an e-Skyactiv G 2.5-litre mild-hybrid powertrain, improved ADAS and extra equipment; the Malaysian range remains centred on the 162 hp 2.0-litre petrol engine.

Which variant to buy
Start with the 2.0G 2WD Standard at RM122,409: it has the same specified 1,998 cc, 162 hp petrol engine, automatic gearbox and five seats as the other front-drive versions. The 2.0G High costs RM124,409, so inspect its equipment against Standard before paying the RM2,000. High+ is RM144,409 and High+ Premium RM154,409; on the stated mechanical data, the latter’s RM10,000 step adds AWD. Choose it only if all-wheel drive matters.

Mazda CX-30 buyer's guides & reviews
Verdict
The CX-30’s Malaysian range is straightforward: every version is a 162 hp, 1,998 cc petrol five-seater with an automatic transmission, while AWD is reserved for the flagship. Entry price sits above the Proton eMas 7, Proton X70, Jetour Dashing and iCaur 03, but below the GAC Emkoo and BYD Atto 3. The key buying question is how much equipment each Mazda trim adds for the money.
