Why should you buy a 2023 Mazda MX-30 as your first electric vehicle?

The 2023 Mazda MX-30 arrived on the market last year and quickly gained attention not only for its electric powertrain, but also for its distinctive design and impressive list of features. There are more and more electric vehicles on the market today, but the Mazda MX-30 has some distinct features that make it stand out, especially to buyers looking to purchase their first electric vehicle. Here we look at a few reasons why the Mazda MX-30 is a great option as a first electric vehicle.


It has the range you're looking for


Much has been said about the range offered by the 2023 Mazda MX-30. The Mazda electric vehicle provides 161 km of range from a 35.5-kWh battery. This is a smaller battery than you'll find in some other electric vehicles, but that doesn't mean the Mazda MX-30 isn't the right electric vehicle for you on your first purchase. Quite the contrary.


For starters, it's important to note that for the vast majority of drivers, 161 km of range is more than enough. Think about how often you need to drive more than that on a daily basis. Chances are, if you're going to work or visiting family on the weekend, you're driving well under 100 km. In these situations, the MX-30 offers more than enough range for your needs.


On the other hand, having a smaller battery means a much faster charge time and if it's your first electric vehicle. With the MX-30, you can charge the battery in less than three hours at home on a Level II charger. Most electric vehicles take 8-10 hours to fully charge at home on a Level II charger. In addition, most of the MX-30's competitors will need more than an hour to charge on a Level 3 fast charger, but the MX-30 gets you back on the road in just over 30 minutes.


That's enough range for the vast majority of your needs, but the charging time is much faster, which means you'll be back on the road much sooner.


A very affordable electric vehicle


Finally, it should be noted that the 2023 Mazda MX-30 is a very affordable electric vehicle. It offers two distinct versions, the first GS starting at $42,650 while the second GT is available at $47,650.


That's before federal and provincial rebates of up to $12,000. That means your 2023 MX-30 could cost you around $35,000. That makes the Mazda electric vehicle one of the most affordable electric vehicles you can buy on the market. If you are looking for your first electric vehicle, the MX-30 is definitely the way to go. Call us today to learn more
