Mazda Southern Africa has announced product enhancements to the CX-30 range, aimed at refining in-cabin usability and design consistency across key models.
What is new?
All Mazda CX-30 derivatives will be equipped with a touchscreen centre display interface. The new screen functionality activates when Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ are in use, allowing drivers and passengers to interact directly with key infotainment functions via touch controls.
This feature complements Mazda's existing rotary command interface, offering users more options for navigating the system.

Interior:
In addition to the introduction of the touch display, interior materials on the Active and Dynamic derivatives have been updated. The navy trim elements previously found on the instrument panel upper, door trims, armrests and rear console will now be finished in black, creating a cleaner, more uniform interior aesthetic.
"The CX-30 continues to offer the kind of understated sophistication that resonates with South African drivers," says Deolinda Da Costa, Head of Marketing at Mazda South Africa. "With the new touchscreen functionality and refined interior styling, we're making the driving experience even more personal, more intuitive and more connected to modern lifestyles. Wonderrrr truly awaits and with the CX-30, the feeling will find you.”

Availability:
Units reflecting the updated specification are expected to arrive at Mazda dealerships nationwide from early November 2025. All CX-30 models remain supported by Mazda’s 5-year unlimited kilometre warranty, 5-year service plan and 5-year roadside assistance.
