Not only is the 2021 Mazda CX-30 known for producing the most horsepower in its class, but it also provides sporty handling and many advanced features.

Whether you’re shopping for yourself or the whole family, this Mazda SUV has all of your bases covered. Even though it’s commonly compared to the Hyundai Kona, we think you’ll see the major differences when you visit Peruzzi Mazda. 

Powertrain Options 

Both the Mazda CX-30 and Hyundai Kona are small but mighty SUVs. However, when you take a look at the specifics, the Mazda CX-30 is slightly more powerful, especially when you compare their similar four-cylinder engines.

Standard and Available Safety Features  

The Mazda CX-30 and the Hyundai Kona offer many driver-assist features, but not all features come standard in the Hyundai Kona. To get the same features in both models, you will need to upgrade to a more expensive trim of the Hyundai SUV.   

Some standard safety highlights in the Mazda CX-30 that you won’t get in the base model of the Hyundai Kona include: 

  • Traffic jam assist. This advanced feature uses Mazda radar cruise control with low-speed steering assistance to help you navigate congested city traffic. 
  • Front and rear parking sensors. These sensors help you avoid colliding with both moving and stationary objects while parking. 
  • 360-view monitor. This unique feature shows you never-before-seen views of your vehicle, which comes in handy when backing into tight parking spaces.
  • Rear cross-traffic alert. By providing visual and audible warnings, this safety feature lets you know if there are any vehicles crossing behind you while backing up. 
  • Smart brake support. Working with rear cross-traffic alert, smart brake support initiates the brakes if a vehicle is detected in your path.
