How Does the 2026 CX-30 Handle on the Road?
On the road, the 2026 Mazda CX-30 feels more engaging and composed than many rival small SUVs thanks to Mazda's focus on precise steering, balanced handling, and confident chassis control. A new brake-based limited-slip differential and updated dampers for 2026 improve traction and ride comfort compared with earlier models. On smooth surfaces it feels poised and refined, though the suspension is tuned toward a firmer, sportier feel that can transmit bumps more noticeably than softer-ridden rivals. The turbo model adds brisk acceleration and a punchier feel on highways and passing. Handling is precise, secure, and fun for its class situations.
