Mazda CX-30 insurance

Sporty yet refined, the Mazda CX-30 SUV is a popular model for families and people with active lives or those who need to carry a good bit of luggage from time to time. It’s nippy around town but eats up motorway miles. Before you enjoy everything that this versatile car has to offer, you need an appropriate Mazda CX-30 insurance policy in place to keep you and your vehicle protected – and to comply with the law. 

Not only that, but you can also get cover for a number of other situations including misfuelling, vandalism, key loss and if you’re involved in an accident with someone who isn’t insured. 

What are insurance groups?

Car insurance varies so vehicles are rated, depending on the price, into one of 50 groups. Vehicles with the lowest rates of insurance are put into group 1. Those with the highest rates are put into group 50.

What insurance group is the Mazda CX-30 in?

Depending on the spec levels and engine size, the Mazda CX-30 is a fairly affordable mid-size SUV to insure, coming in at insurance group 12 (for an entry-level model) rising to group 21 for the all-bells-and-whistles 2.0 e-Skyactiv-X MHEV GT Sport Tech 5dr. 

Is the Mazda CX-30 a hybrid?

The Mazda CX-30 has a choice of two petrol engines, both of which are what’s known as a ‘mild hybrid’. As the name suggests, this means the small electric motor and 24v L-ion battery provide a small amount of electrical assistance to the engine at slow speeds – but not enough for the car to run on electrics alone. However, this does mean that even when driven quite hard, the 2.0l petrol engine – which generates 186hp and reaches 0-62mph in 8.6 seconds – will still achieve a fuel economy of 50mpg.

Can I reduce my Mazda CX-30 insurance? 

The easiest way to reduce your car insurance quote is by shopping around and comparing providers. Adding a more experienced driver to your policy and keeping it off the road at night can also help to reduce costs. It can also be a good idea to go through your policy to see if there is anything that you don’t need, as removing certain cover could help to cut the price. 

Which car insurance should I choose for my Mazda CX-30?

The most common types of car insurance are third party, comprehensive and third party, fire and theft.
