SHAH ALAM: Bermaz Motor has previewed the Mazda MX-30 electric vehicle that is aimed at a third or fourth quarter launch.Looking similar to the CX-30 crossover, the MX-30 was first unveiled at the 2019 Tokyo Motor Show.
Mazda says the SkyActiv-Vehicle Architecture helps the crossover provide great driving dynamics and experience. The interior gets a floating console and eco-friendly materials such as vegan leather and environmentally-sourced cork. Bermaz Auto executive chairman Datuk Seri Ben Yeoh said the MX-30 is marketed as a practical 2+2 seater city runabout vehicle.
Yeoh said high-performance EVs had to be equipped with heavier battery pack for longer driving range. However, he said the battery technology is expect to improve in the future where a small battery pack similar to the MX-30's could provide longer driving range.
