Received my third CX-30 today.

I acquired my third leased CX-30 today, with the Premium trim in Aero Grey with a white inside. I acquired my first (Polymetal Grey) in late December 2019 and my second in May 2022. I appreciate the automobile. I contemplated acquiring a different vehicle this time; but, the release of the 2025 models in the new Aero Grey colour reaffirmed my commitment to being a Mazda driver.

I opted to submit my 2022 early since my local dealer, who excels in all aspects, provided me with my desired terms, including the replacement of OEM tires with Michelin CrossClimate 2’s, and the colour combination is rather rare. The 2025 model has many functions not included in my 2022 version, and I prefer operating a vehicle with which I am acquainted. I contemplated the Kia K4 Turbo; but, my recent sedan rental reaffirmed my preference for the dimensions of the CX-30.

Intriguing. I am considering replacing my 2022 model with a 2025 model in Aero Grey. Could you upload one or two images? I would like seeing the hue in a practical context. Additionally, which new features do you consider the most advantageous thus far? Thank you!

[matthewlightburn]

The inclusion of wireless CarPlay and Qi charging is advantageous; however, I previously used a Carlinkit converter and a magnetic charger installed in the centre storage compartment (available on Amazon), which provided both functionalities. Nonetheless, having these functions integrated is preferable. The United States included heated mirrors, but I assume they were common in Canada before. The integration of CarPlay navigation into the heads-up display is advantageous for me, but I believe this feature has been for around a year.

The Aero Grey hue is almost identical to Kia's Wolf Grey, which my wife has on her 2023 Sorento. She believes the Mazda is little lighter, however they seem quite similar to me. The image depicts an overcast day with intermittent rays of sunlight penetrating the clouds. I believe it is a hue that seems far more appealing in reality than in photographs.

Although this subject is tangential, would "All Weather" tires with the mountain emblem (such as the Michelin CrossClimate 2) be permissible in Ontario, Canada, during the winter season? I reside south of Buffalo, NY, thus my curiosity. It seems unlikely that I would go to Toronto during the winter season. Salutations!

Southern Ontario Winter tires are not a must. All seasons are permissible. All-weather tires should suffice for standard circumstances, except while driving on remote dirt roads. I reside in Toronto, and the route from Buffalo to Toronto is entirely by motorway.

I would contemplate a hybrid CX-30 equipped with an appropriate Toyota D-4S engine (direct and port injection) and a hybrid drivetrain akin to that of the 2025 hybrid CX-50; however, cylinder deactivation (or stop/start technology) will deter me from acquiring any future Mazda NA internal combustion engine vehicles, with the exception of the MX-5, which lacks this feature.

Upon further examination, I must concede that my wife's assessment of the colour resemblance to her 2023 Kia Sorento in Wolf Grey is likely correct. Wolf Grey is somewhat darker than Aero Grey.

Best of luck! They seem to be limited in my vicinity. Mine was one of two within a 200-mile radius of my residence, including Buffalo, Pittsburgh, and Cleveland, and it arrived the day before to its delivery to the dealership.
