The 2025 Mazda CX-30 is arriving in Australian dealerships from September 2024, becoming the company’s second model to feature its suite of connected services. First seen on the MX-5 , Mazda Connected Services technology allows owners to control certain features in their CX-30 remotely, including geofencing where it can be driven and remotely locking or unlocking it. It also features stolen vehicle tracking.

Its inclusion has come at a cost though, with the price of almost every variant increasing by $800. The entry-level CX-30 G20 Pure now opens the range from $33,940 before on-road costs, and it’s also benefited from the fitment of USB-C ports in place of its dated USB-A connections. Only the CX-30 G20 Evolve has experienced a price increase greater than $800, going up by $1000 as it now includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone streaming capabilities, as well as a wireless charging pad.

Every other variant is $800 more expensive than before, while a new CX-30 Touring LE grade has made its way into the lineup as the new mid-range option. With blacked-out exterior elements, a terracotta-coloured interior and extra safety technology, it’s $800 more than the Touring upon which it’s based. Mazda claims, however, that it includes more than $1800 worth of extra equipment.

Deliveries of the 2025 Mazda CX-30 are due to begin next month. There are two available engines and three drivetrain combinations in the CX-30 range. Mazda Australia quotes the followin.
