Mazda launched its CX-30 during a tumultuous time in the automotive industry. Mazda’s CX-30 crossover launched at the end of 2019 and helped Mazda compete with the growing demand for compact crossovers. Borrowing a powertrain and driveline from its Mazda3 means that this CX-30 packs a 2.5-liter I4 under the hood. Adding more oomph to the mix, Mazda also slapped a turbocharger on this 2.5-liter on the aptly named Turbo models. This turbocharged compact crossover sends 250 hp and 320 lb-ft of torque through a six-speed automatic and into an all-wheel-drive system.

On this episode of Quick Spin, your host Wesley Wren hops behind the wheel of the 2024 Mazda CX-30 turbo and puts it through its paces.
