You'd be forgiven to think that the ever-popular Honda CR-V is the world's best-selling C-segment SUV in 2020, and you'd be wrong. That accolade belongs to the Toyota RAV4 and Wildlander (RAV4's Chinese twin), with 1.07 million units sold globally in 2020, while the Honda CR-V and Breeze (CR-V's Chinese equivalent) sits in second position. In fact, according to this ranking by carindustryanalysis, Japanese SUVs make up four of the top five global C-SUV sales positions, which consists of: 1st - T

At the ongoing 2021 Shanghai Auto Show, Changan Mazda has previewed the Mazda CX-30 EV. The model will hit showrooms in China later this year. Being a preview, the company did not provide any powertrain details. That said, seeing that the CX-30 shares its platform with the electric-only Mazda MX-30, it’s not too far-fetched to say that both SUVs could share a same powertrain. In the Mazda MX-30, its electric motor is good for 143 PS and 264 Nm, juiced by a 35.5-kWh battery pack. It offers a 200-

They are spacious and practical for a growing family, with some even offering 7 seats. Plus, with a higher driving position, it’s probably an ideal vehicle for those who wish to command more presence on the road. But while practicality and size are determining factors in getting a C-segment SUV, another

Manufacturers seem to be filling in all the niches possible in their SUV lineup. Here we have the Mazda CX-5 and the Mazda CX-30, both are technically in the C-segment SUV market, and we've lined them up for a CX-5 vs CX-30 comparison. Well, some would consider the CX-30 to be a crossover but let’s not get into the whole SUV vs crossover thing just yet. Back to the topic, the Mazda CX-5 and CX-30 not only sit in the same segment, they are within similar price bracket as well. So, which do you pi

Bermaz Auto, the distributor of Mazda vehicles in Malaysia is expected to add the C-segment CX-30 into its model line-up this November. Positioned between the CX-3 and CX-5, the CX-30 is a closer rival to the dominating Honda HR-V, which the Mazda 2-based CX-3 couldn’t match because it was just a little bit too small. The CX-30 will be part of Bermaz Auto’s 3-model SUV introduction blitz that will kick off later this month with the turbocharged CX-5 variant, followed by the seven-seater CX-8, an
