A new report by CarDirect website affirms that the model will get a 2.5L 4-cylinder turbo engine; the variant will, logically and simply, be called the 2.5 Turbo. The report is based on a Mazda order guide for 2021, which obviously lends it credence.  

Like in the Mazda3 and other models in the brand’s lineup, the CX-30’s turbo unit will generate 250 hp and 320 lb-ft of torque when 93-octane gasoline is used, or 227 hp and 310 lb-ft with regular gasoline.

The 2.0L and 2.5L engines deliver 155 and 186 hp, respectively, and 150 and 186 lb-ft of torque, again respectively.
