Mazda has now revealed the full UK range and pricing for the brand’s first EV with the MX-30 electric crossover. To kick-off, the order books are now open for the MX-30 First Edition model, which is limited to 500 units with deliveries starting in March 2021.
The first opportunity to order and take delivery comes with prices starting the £27,495 (including PiCG grant) for the MX-30 First Edition. Without the £3000 government grant, these prices equate £30,495 or 31,030 euros.
Mazda officially unveiled its first battery-electric model in October last year, revealing the electric car’s performance data. Briefly, these encompass an AC synchronous electric motor and a 35.5kWh lithium-ion battery. The electric car has a range of approximately 124 miles (about 200 km) and comes with AC charging up to 6.6kW and DC rapid charging designed to meet CCS standards at 50kW.
The battery size has been kept deliberately small. According to the company, it reflects driving behaviour, and they believe the MX-30 to serve as second car in most households.
It can definitely help to keep prices competitive. The 500 First Edition MX-30s will be the debut cars to arrive in the UK with deliveries starting in March 2021. This will be followed by the now announced full range including the Mazda MX-30 SE-L Lux with prices starting at £25,545, the MX-30 Sport Lux that starts at £27,545 and the range-topping GT Sport Tech start at £29,845, keeping in mind that all of these prices already include the OLEV plug-in grant.
