Another day, another electric vehicle. This time around it's from Mazda, and it blends all the hallmarks of a sporty city SUV with a fully-electric heart.

The MX-30 debuts Mazda's pure-electric e-SkyActiv platform, along with a number of new interior technologies likely to filter through the rest of the Japanese brand's line-up in due course.

The all-electric MX-30 is part of Mazda's plan to offer an e-SkyActiv (hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or fully-electric) vehicle in each of its model lines by 2030. That includes everything from the Mazda 2 through to the dual-cab BT-50 replacement.
Mazda hasn't confirmed the MX-30's exact dimensions, battery size... or any real details, but the four-door configuration (and '30' name) suggest it will be around the size of the CX-30.

Rather than a conventional body, however, the car will instead using a pillar-less door design that then open in a similar configuration to the RX-8.

The front doors are capable of opening with an aperture of 82 degrees and the rear doors can open at up to 80 degrees, making entry and egress easier.
Mazda wouldn't confirm battery size or range, but we know the vehicle is capable of charging at up to 6.6kW using an onboard AC charger, and can charge using a DC fast charger over a CCS Type 2 Combo or a CHAdeMO plug depending on where in the world you are.

Working backwards from the claimed 40 minute charge time on DC and 4.5 hour charge time on AC, the MX-30 likely has a 35kWh battery on-board with 50kW DC fast charging capability, allowing a driving range of around 200km. Earlier prototypes of the MX-30 built within a CX-30 body featured a 105kW electric motor that produces 264Nm of torque.
Mazda has drawn inspiration from the BMW i3 inside, extensively using materials like cork derived from excess materials from wine stoppers around the centre console, a soft material on the dashboard, and doors made of recycled PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles, along with new seat fabric design.

New to the Mazda range is a 7.0-inch screen located under the air vents for climate control. The colour screen is similar to the one used across members of the Audi stable, but it's understood this screen doesn't feature haptic feedback.
The floating centre console also features a rotary dial for Mazda's latest MZD Connect infotainment system, along with storage behind the console with 2.5A USB connectivity and an AC outlet capable of supplying up to 150W of power.

Open the cargo area and Mazda claims there's enough room to fit four carry-on cabin bags, with sufficient underfloor storage for small items such as the charging cable.
