Mazda’s first-ever all-electric vehicle, the MX-30, was a huge flop in the US. It’s not exactly a surprise as to why. It only offered 100 miles of range, and it cost more or as much as competitors such as the Nissan Leaf and Chevy Bolt that both offered far more range. So after just a couple of years, Mazda ended sales of the MX-30 EV in the US as of 2023. Mazda continued to offer the MX-30 EV in Europe and Japan, though, as well as other powertrain variants such as one with a rotary range-extender, and, in Japan, a mild-hybrid version with a four-cylinder engine. Apparently this year is the end for the electric MX-30 in Europe, too, with the company confirming the discontinuation.
