In terms of its dynamic characteristics, the Mazda MX-30 is not at all a competitor to Model 3: the power plant power of the novelty at the level of a golf class hatchback is 145 hp. The capacity of the traction battery is 35.5 kWh, the mileage on a single charge on the WLTP cycle is 200 km. In general, the indicators are very modest.

True, next year the situation with autonomy will improve due to the appearance of a hybrid version with a small rotary engine – it will charge the battery. Of course, the cost of the hybrid has not yet been announced.
