2020 Mazda CX-30 Review | Is This Really Happening? 

This comment had a deep impact.

i'm going to have to second this - your photography and shot choice is also so well done. The slow pans, the cuts (without overdoing it) excellent. My only criticism, as a viewer and fan is the musicality, sometimes things come out of left field. I could take it or leave it, but overall tend to like the more atmospheric scores you use vs the really vibrant/energetic tracks. Great stuff, I legit actively await your next vids.

@@belowdelancey1025 Some of the music choices really come out of left field. Ill be doing an edit and I get to a place of, let me just be stupid with it. Some of it is to break up the routine and other times its just a bad choice.

savagegeese I’m glad I was kind of on point then, that’s essentially what it feels like, which then feels like it’s true to your personality. Appreciated all around, keep doing your thing brotha. And fwiw, if you need some visual design support give me a shout, it’s my bread and butter. Would love to lend a hand should you ever need it.

savagegeese I personally love the city pop grooves 😆

Ikr, it's not big, chunky and in your face unlike most of its competitors.

@@mrpink3630 Very enlightening comment, give yourself a pat on the back.

Jacob Ross They are not designed as push buttons. You have to use them as a rocker switch, touching the aluminium part and switch up and down. Then they are ok for me.

Agreed, compare this to e.g., the Supra's wheel, the middle of which is the size of a pizza

The irony when he says that at 2:03, he uses the Climate Control gauges, and those ones if you spin them very slowly wont register. You ask "Why would some one spin them slow?" Well if you have minor onset OCD and can only have your temperatures in variations of 5, if you only want to go up 1 degree its a bit difficult.

@@DaedricFaZe You can easily move by a degree. They work flawlessly.

Parker Raimondo They’re soft-click knobs. Each click is one degree. You don’t even have to look at it to get a one degree change. One of the main things I couldn’t stand about the Teslas I’ve driven.

@@DaedricFaZe Then those with minor onset OCD shouldn't get a car that's not for them. Problem solved

@@DaedricFaZe maybe their target market are not those with OCD then..

Im considering buyin one have you had any issues w it at all?

@@djnivs9347 i only had one issue, whistling sound from side mirrors on very high speeds, but they addressed it and it is gone. It's been 3 years, so I'd say so far so good 👍🏻

@@x3merx3mer hey any update on ur cx-5?

@@sebi8647 still driving it, loving it.. I should switch to a 7 seater since my family got bigger, but I'm having a hard time deciding to sell Mazda. I'm really happy with it in every aspect

@@x3merx3merswitch to an cx8 or cx9

Honda and Toyota, yes. But I think they've surpassed Nissan over the last few years.

Ryan Burkholder & you’re right from a vehicle quality/reliability standpoint, but they don’t have the brand recognition that Nissan has

@@ryanburkholder2076 i agree. toyota and Honda are still good cars so being behind them is fine in my opinion

Honda and Toyota yeah. But Nissan is just pure crap.

Tony Again, yeah. Chrysler is pure crap as a carmaker, save for a couple of their divisions; doesn’t change the fact that they’re one of the big 3 in the U.S.

And that's why I love Mazda! A delightful experience for those who venture outside the box of Honda and Toyota....

Came here to learn about Mazda 30, not watch a movie.

+1 def sounded like a Bond flick intro

Goose likes to compose a lot of his own music. He is getting much better with experience, kudos to him even without training (afaik).

After this Daniel Craig movie, Bond is officially dead. At least in my book.

Will Kelley I hope they funnel all their profits from this into the Miata

Everyone needs volume sellers to fund cool stuff

Manufacturers are going more for the volume and not really reinvesting in the cool stuff, with only a small amount of exceptions. Mazda needs to bring back the MazdaSpeed editions of the 3 & 6, but it doesn’t seem likely with the garbage torsion beam rear suspension on the 3 hatch. 👎🏼

I know Mazda can make great sports cars, but I just wish they would something much more serious than the Miata. Don't get me wrong, the new Miata is a very good car but it's still no FD RX-7 in terms of driving feel and overall performance.

@@savagegeese Take a Corolla, put a Mazda badge on it and sales will instantly go down by 90%

Spot on

Yeah, seeing the projections of the CX-30, it seems to have taken a chunk out of the Mazda 3, 6 and CX-3

Until people see the video on RU-vid name "Mazda CX30 ac problem when accelerating"

Trump 2020 🇺🇲

Definitely goes into more details than many out there.

Thomas Conrad did you get it? I’d love to have your opinions! Thank you

Did you end up buying it and how is it after 2 years

@@JG90984 I ended up getting the CX-5 instead. I really liked the CX-30 and if I were younger, I probably would have bought it. But the CX-5 is a lot easier for me to get in and out of because it sits a bit taller. I have no complaints with what I bought and have had zero problems so far. Good luck with whatever you decide.

Leeso nneville it’s a confirmation that their science is accurate though.

Paul von Helger of course they spendt a lot on this study. Because they’re stupid and wanted to prove that they weren’t stupid

"screen time is the problem" has been a well known human created physical disorder going on almost a Century now. There's a place for this in the stable as such of course.

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)

They not wrong lol

I own an old Mazda with almost 300,000 miles on it. Not only are they affordable to own but you can own them forever.

The BMW X2 and the Mazda CX-30. I love them both. My wallet is saying Mazda. The CX-30 has blind spot monitoring; the X2 doesn't have it ... not even as an option.

My cx9 is 13 years old. Still fun and fast to drive. Just get the top engine offered, and enjoy.

I had four BMWs over the last ten years. Switched to Mazda, and got the new CX-9... love it. Funnily enough, I get way more people commenting on my car than I ever did in a BMW.

@@OnoOne I had a 1998 Mazda 626 I bought it used with 138,000 K it was 5 years old ,was the base car 5 speed manual, I drove it 5 yrs had 186000 k when I sold it ,it was a great car great on fuel and I had no issues just regular things brakes pads rotors etc ,I currently have a 2007 Ford Fusion SEL which I have had 12 yrs now 3.0 v6 it has been a great car as well, however I do not want a TURBO, so my next car coming up in the next year or so will be a Mazda,, right now if I did it today it would be the Mazda 3 ,6 speed manual optioned with the moonroof , as my Fusion has,thanks for the great review of the Mazda 30 and of the 3, I watched both!

Dont ever argue people when they have science.

@@savagegeese How bout you tell us whats in that bag? or maybe a hint?

Yeah. Mr Mark! Science!

You guys are cat and science deniers.

@@savagegeese I live in Australia, which we all know is a fictional country. My entire existence is denial.

The main draw, to me, is that when you eventually get in a fender bender, these unpainted parts are faster and cheaper to acquire. Insurance companies should recognize this and lower rates

@@craiglicata The only time most people take them off road is when they drive into a ditch.

uh, you realize those plastic panels are literally held on to the side of the vehicle using metal clips, right? So they have to punch holes in the bodyside panels, and then seat metal clips into said bodyside panels. It looks like garbage, and it actually promotes rust since rain, salt, and dirt get trapped between the plastic and the bodyside. I'd have bought this car if it wasn't for those obscene plastic bits. The CX-5 at least looks proportionate, but on the CX-30, they're just plain hideous.

@@kylein209 the cx30 cladding is par for its class. Check out the Kona if you disagree....

That's exactly the impression I had and the reason I subscribed to this channel! Really one of a kind.

The bromance can be felt. Poor Turbowski got canned. But Mark left him speechless ;)

@@ksoman953 Hopefully Turbowski will be back. His dead pan exchanges with Geese regarding car reliability or modern cars in general are priceless

It's the best. Nobody else on RU-vid does it better.

@@NoteFromSELF "You are" in the shop section is my favorite part? Incorrect

I thought the brother replaced him until I saw this episode. Maybe SavageGeese forgot to buy Scott the required libations

Scott! Our baby needs a father, please come back.

Gotta donate 24k to Mr. Geese re-election campaign

@@tradukilor2 I see neither a "brotha" nor a "brother" on SG's channel. If you're referring to Jack Sing then they are besties. IMO Jack does a great driving segment, SG brings the wisdom, and Turbowski brings the hot and heavy sarcasm.

He really needs to make a guest appearance from time to time.

Shows how many dumb folk are around he should clearly have 1million+

I agree as well... There are other reviews that aren't nearly as deserving of subscribers. I would expect him to have many more. At least double the subs.

This dude should have a least 1 million subscribers he is 10 times better and more interesting than some other auto reviewers and I won't say there names....... unless you want me to lol.

Yes 100%. This is absolutely top notch. Best work on the net regarding car reviews. Quality never really competed wt quantity, unfortanately....Goose's camera work and editing should be receiving awards!

And music selection! Top notch, once again!

Yep!!!

@Randy Jackson Let me guess: Honda fanboy?

@Randy Jackson Hey. I had a Daewoo rental car once and it drove great.

Just wish they had a BMW 2-sized, small V8 RWD sporty sedan. Like a more sharpened RWD version of Mazda 6 with a V8. Oh a person can dream. I'm just tired of the usual droning ubiquitous 4-banger.

Honestly, when I heard the CX 5 being too big my immediate reaction was "that's a first."

As a CX5 driver.... I agree. I think it's the right size. I may have to go sit in a CX30 though just to see what the fuss is about!

Cx3 is even smaller... It's mostly a mazda 2/yaris hatchback right?

@@remytv Yes the CX3 is very small. My mom looked at one. She thought it was too small, so she bought a Honda HRV.

Yes the cx-3 is just a mazda 2 lifted.

@@mezzb My front wheel drive Volvo V50 does great in the snow as well, but it has snow tires. Snow tires gives people more traction then an awd system.

@@godemperorofmankind7255 having snow tires with AWD is a blessing.

I think you are right! Empty nester will love it! 😁

No, it's full of inflatable sex dolls.

No, it's full of inflatable sex dolls

Law and Order sound, DUNH DUNH

The 2021 CX 30 will have the 2.5 Turbo from the Mazda 3.

Agreed. It's a good response to all the emission regulation to keep NA engines, but it's ending up just another over complication vulnerable to failure.

Yes. And why in the hell don't people get classes on vehicle upkeep, environmental protection, and how to drive less miles?? What good is a Prius if you drive it around the Earth 100 times???

Should deactivate the piston instead-- same benefit, but piston is smaller than cylinder.

Definitely a buzzkill for a lot of vehicles. Even the C7 Corvette

Definitely a bad idea. Fortunately this has it only in the premium trim. The other levels dont have it!

Let us know your thoughts after you start driving it. Interested! :)

How has it held up? I’ve just put a deposit down for one

@@tarikdelic9009 great! You made a good choice I’m still happy with my Cx30

@@AdolfoRamirezescritor Awesome! I look forward to picking it up in a couple of weeks.

Beautiful vehicle!!

I love my 18 CX5 Touring too... but am intrigued by this CX30.

Then it should be an option and more discreet for those who live in rusty places.

@@333mystic it's par for the cx30 class. Everyone else in the class has it too. Start with Kona.....

Until it fades into an ugly shade of .....yech.

Yes! A worthy Volvo successor.

Save the I5 engine!!!

For the CX30??? :(

YES !
