2021 Mazda CX-30 manual introduced, special-edition pricing announced

The 2021 Mazda CX-30 is now cheaper thanks to the addition of a manual variant, while a new special edition tops the range. The Mazda now starts at $28,990 before on-road costs for the manual front-wheel-drive 2.0-litre CX-30 G20 Pure, which is $1000 cheaper than the automatic model. The price drop closes the gap with cheaper Kia Seltos, Hyundai Kona, and Mitsubishi ASX competitors, which have all been beating out the more expensive CX-30 in market share within the small SUV segment.
