2022 Mazda CX-30 vs. 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross : Discover Mazda’s Enhanced Driving Dynamics

The Mazda CX-30 has everything a subcompact SUV should have: plenty of space, technologies that help you on the road, active safety systems that keep you safe, and much more. But with Mazda, things are never boring. That’s why engineers gave the CX-30 a series of engines and technologies that pushes the boundaries of the segment.

Here, we compare the 2022 Mazda CX-30 with the 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross.

The 2022 Mazda CX-30 perfectly combines style, space and technology

For 2022, the CX-30 gets enhancements that make it even better. For example, the GT trim gets a new Advanced Visibility Package, which includes a 360-degree View Monitor, front parking sensors and Traffic Jam Assist. The CX-30’s infotainment system is better than ever and much more advanced than the Corolla Cross’ system.

The CX-30’s interior welcomes its occupants in a comfortable cabin that is crafted using superior textures and materials commonly found in premium and luxury vehicles. The Toyota Corolla Cross’ interior is like every Toyota; bland and basic with hard plastics and basic textures.

The 2022 Mazda CX-30 charges ahead in terms of performance and choice

The CX-30 gets the best of Mazda in terms of engineering and performance. Unlike most of its rivals, it receives a variety of engines that covers every need. Base CX-30s get a four-cylinder, 2.0-litre unit that boasts 155 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque. You can also opt for a 2.5-litre engine with 186 hp and 186 lb-ft of torque.

The turbocharged 2.5-litre engine has also joined the CX-30 family, leaping forward with 250 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque.

But beyond horsepower figures, the CX-30 also gets standard i-Activ AWD system on every model, along with G-Vectoring Control Plus for improved cornering performance.

The Toyota Corolla Cross only has one engine. Its four-cylinder 2.0-litre engine only outputs 169 hp and 151 lb-ft of torque. This engine cannot compete with the CX-30 in terms of choice and overall performance.

Finally, the Toyota Corolla Cross is equipped with a notoriously bland continuously variable transmission, which is disadvantaged in terms of responsiveness when compared to the CX-30’s six-speed unit.
