The all-electric Mazda MX-30 once again appeared in Mazda’s sales stats in January, although the numbers remain pretty low.<\/p>\n

The Japanese company reports nine Mazda MX-30<\/a> sales, which is 73 percent less than a year ago (33), and just a small fraction out of the 22,967 Mazda cars sold in the United States during the month.<\/p>\n

It’s hard to say what is the plan for the new 2023 model year version<\/a>. The only electric Mazda<\/a> on the market was absent for the five previous months. The latest result is the best since six months ago when the 2022 model year was “sold out.”<\/a><\/p>\n

Does this mean that we will see double- or triple-digit results in the future? Well, maybe.<\/p>\n

In 2022, Mazda sold a total of 324 MX-30<\/a>, while the cumulative number is 514 (in 17 months).<\/p>\n

The limited approach – short-range model (only 100 miles according to EPA), available only in California and in low volume – makes the Mazda MX-30 a compliance electric car.<\/p>\n

The biggest issue moving forward will be the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA), which means that the model (just like other imported plug-ins) will not be eligible for the $7,500 federal tax credit. For a model with an MSRP of $34,110 (+$1,275), that’s a substantial disadvantage. Previously, the 2022 MX-30 started at $33,470 (+$1,175).<\/p>\n

Mazda says that long-range electric cars are not sustainable<\/a>, but the Mazda MX-30’s sales result does not seem to be too electrifying.<\/p>\n

In January, the company introduced in Europe the Mazda MX-30 e-Skyactiv R-EV plug-in hybrid<\/a> (series hybrid with a 17.8-kilowatt-hour (kWh) battery and recharging capability). It will be very interesting to see whether the hybrid MX-30 will make any splash in Europe later this year and whether it will also be introduced in North America.<\/p>\n

If not, then we will have to wait until 2028-2030 for proper all-electric Mazda cars<\/a>.<\/p>\n
