Many automakers are looking to produce more electric and hybrid options. The Mazda is creating its first all-electric vehicle. This EV will be known as the Mazda MX-30, and it is beginning production in Hiroshima, Japan. You can learn more about this vehicle and what it can offer you below.
What powers this all-electric Mazda. The MX-30 will be home to an e-Skyactiv1 electric powertrain that will consist of a 107kW electric motor and a 35.5 kWh lithium-ion battery. This vehicle will produce 143-horsepower, and it will have a driving range of 124 miles. There will also be a range extender that Mazda is currently working on to boost the driving range of this electric vehicle.
According to Electrek, “The MX-30 is capable of AC charging at 6.6kW. It supports DC charging at up to 50kW with either the CHAdeMO or CCS standard, based on the local market. Given a relatively small battery, DC quick charging from empty to 80% takes about 40 minutes.”
