Shopping for a compact SUV? The good news is that you have quite a few to choose from. The bad news is that you can only pick one. One of the most popular models is the 2024 Mazda CX-30, but how does it match up to others? Freysinger Mazda takes a look at how it compares with the 2024 Volkswagen Taos in three important areas.

Power and Performance

The 2024 Mazda CX-30 is a vehicle you will love driving. As with all Mazda models, its handling is fantastic, and all-wheel drive is standard. Plus, it has great power, as it comes with a 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that produces 191 horsepower.

The 2024 Volkswagen Taos, which comes with front-wheel drive, isn’t nearly as athletic. Plus, its turbocharged 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine only puts out 158 horsepower.

Tech Features

You can always rely on Mazda for creating tech-savvy vehicles. Inside the 2024 Mazda CX-30 you’ll find many of state-of-the-art features. These include Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, a Wi-Fi® hot spot, and a six-speaker stereo that provides HD radio. This new Mazda SUV also comes with a simple-to-operate infotainment system with an 8.8-inch display that can be operated with voice commands.

The 2024 Volkswagen Taos has some of the same features, but its infotainment system’s screen is just 6.5 inches, and its standard stereo only has four speakers.

Safety Systems

You’ll love how your 2024 Mazda CX-30 performs out on the road, and you will also love how it will help keep you safe. Every model comes with the most advanced systems. These include forward collision warning, rear cross-traffic alert, and lane-keeping assist. You will also get:

  • Forward automatic emergency braking
  • Pedestrian detection
  • Blind spot monitoring
  • Rain-sensing windshield wipers
  • Automatic high-beam headlights
  • Adaptive cruise control
  • Lane departure warning
  • Driver-attention monitoring
  • Rear-seat alert

Some of these systems can be found in the 2024 Volkswagen Taos, but not driver-attention monitoring or rear cross-traffic alert. Plus, pedestrian detection requires an upgrade.
