2025 MAZDA CX-30 vs. Toyota Corolla Cross Specs

To start, let’s compare the Mazda CX-30 and Toyota Corolla Cross on their trim availability and specifications. There are 8 Mazda CX-30 trims available in 2025, while there are only 3 gas-powered versions of the 2025 Corolla Cross – 6 if you count FWD and AWD drivetrains separately. But does it count as a new “trim” if all that’s different is the drivetrain? Probably not, especially when the competition offers 8 distinct models as part of a single lineup. For variety, the 2025 Mazda CX-30 takes it.

Mazda also offers Merrimack drivers two powertrain options in the same lineup, with the more powerful SKYACTIV®-G 2.5 Dynamic Pressure Turbo engine available starting with the Mazda CX-30 2.5 Carbon Turbo. That said, even the entry-level SKYACTIV®-G 2.5 DOHC 4-cylinder can output 191 hp, while the 2.0L Dynamic Force 4-cylinder that powers the 2025 Corolla Cross manages a solid, yet comparatively lacking, 169 hp. 

When we compare the Mazda CX-30 and Toyota Corolla Cross on torque values, a similar picture emerges. Both Mazda CX-30 engines outperform the single engine that’s available for the 2025 Corolla Cross. Considering that torque directly impacts acceleration speed, the Mazda CX-30 will provide a more punchy, responsive, and exhilarating ride than the Toyota Corolla Cross. Plus, with the more powerful engine variant, Lowell drivers have the option of using 93-octane fuel instead of 87-octane to achieve up to 250 hp and 320 lb-ft of torque instead of the figures mentioned above.

2025 MAZDA CX-30 vs. Toyota Corolla Cross: Interior & Comfort

Finally, let’s compare the Mazda CX-30 and Toyota Corolla Cross on some interior specs and comfort-related features. When it comes to passenger space, the two models are quite close. Without a moonroof, the Corolla Cross just edges out the Mazda CX-30, as it has 94.9 cubic feet to the 94.1 cubic feet offered by the Mazda CX-30. On the other hand, this reverses if you opt for a moonroof on the Corolla Cross, which brings down passenger volume to 93.8 cubic feet.

That said, the Mazda CX-30 has a more luxuriously upholstered interior, with leatherette or leather seating available throughout most of the lineup. The 2025 Corolla Cross, on the other hand, offers SofTex®, a synthetic material that is easier to clean and maintain, but not as sumptuous.
