Mazda CX-30 2027 price, Air Edition and i-ACTIVSENSE updates

Mazda has opened orders in Taiwan for the 2027 CX-30. The update is unusual: the crossover gains a broader suite of electronic driver assists and richer equipment, while comparable trims have become cheaper. The entry-level 20S Ace Edition now costs TWD 888,000, while the 20S Signature has been cut to TWD 1,048,000, down TWD 70,000 from the 2026 version. The new range-topper is the 20S Air Edition at TWD 1,088,000.
The powertrain is unchanged: the Taiwan-market CX-30 retains a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated SKYACTIV-G gasoline engine producing 165 hp, a six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. The main technical update concerns i-ACTIVSENSE. All versions gain six functions: a speed limiter, assistance to help avoid an oncoming vehicle while turning, road-departure prevention, assistance when there is a risk of entering the opposing lane, active evasive assistance during a lane change when a vehicle is detected in the blind spot, and an exit warning for hazards when doors are opened.
The Air Edition takes the place of the discontinued Homura special edition at the top of the range. It gets darkened badges and exterior trim, dark wheels, and a gray-and-white cabin finished with Leganu material. Equipment also includes ventilated and heated front seats, ALH adaptive headlights with pedestrian highlighting, intersection assistance and a 360-degree camera system with See-Through View. Mazda calls the new Aero Gray Metallic color “sky gray” in Taiwan.
The Air Edition name does not mean identical hardware in every market. Mazda introduced the version in Japan on July 23, 2026, where the CX-30 Air Edition is offered with 2.0- and 2.5-liter powertrains, and the 2.5-liter version is also available with all-wheel drive. The Taiwan-market model keeps its local 165-hp, front-wheel-drive configuration, so this is a regionally adapted version rather than a direct copy of the Japanese specification.
