MX-30 E-Skyactiv R-EV series plug-in hybrid joins Mazda’s electrified line-up with the Mazda MX-30 e-Skyactiv.
The stylish and elegant looking MX-30 R-EV’s exclusively offered in the unique colour combination of Jet Black with Maroon Rouge side pillars and a black roof, offers the same customer values as the pure electric Mazda MX-30, while simultaneously offering new ways of using a car as a battery electric vehicle.
With a 17.8KWh battery, the R-EV has a 53-mile pure electric range and Mazda’s unique rotary engine technology has been beneficial as the all-new 830cc single-rotor petrol engine is now acting as a generator for longer distance driving without range or charging anxiety, delivering a seamless EV driving experience.
With more than half a century of expertise in the development of rotary engines, Mazda selected the rotary powerplant for this application due to its unique ability to produce the required output from a small, light and easily packaged unit.
Compatibility with both AC charging and rapid DC charging is another benefit, meaning 3-phase AC charging takes around 50mins, while for maximum customer flexibility, DC rapid charging can be completed in around 25 minutes.
The Mazda MX-30 R-EV has three drive-modes to suit different driving situations: Normal, EV and Charge, and thanks to a 125kw/170ps output, it delivers slightly better acceleration performance than the 145ps fully electric MX-30.
