Hello everyone, I’ve just joined and am waiting on delivery of a new MX30 R-EV Makoto in ceramic white. After a 10 month wait (ordered in February 2023) it’s now at the garage ready for its PDI and then, hopefully, handover. I test drove an MX30 and was very impressed. I’ve never driven, or even been in a Mazda car before, and was amazed at the build quality, driver aids, overall handling and sound system. Most of my driving will be A and B roads on a commute two or three days a week... Hello from the UK ..read more

Hi all, I have a big problem with DC "fast" charging. I will describe the last three attempts: 1. DC 150kw | 9°C | charged after 70km | 35% SOC | charging speed 5kW 2. DC 50kw | 4°C | charged after 20km | 53% SOC | charging speed 4kW 3. DC 50kw | 2°C | charged after 20km | 76% SOC | charging speed 3-4kW In each case it charged 35-37kW for the first 30 seconds. Then dropping to the above values. By standard I charge on a home wallbox, but not having the DC charging option sucks. Any... Very slow DC charging ..read more

MX-30 RE-V Makato hopefully arriving in the next week or so. Annoying delays but then our MX-5 was nearly 6 months delayed! Obviously hugely excited by the Rotary engine (I saw the 787B race at Le Mans) but also how it will fit in go our daily use. Think we should be 90% on battery in every day use. Really loved the interior when we test drove the EV. Equally as good as some EVs at twice the price, of not better ..read more
