Mazda MX30 petrol hybrid has never been so good
Mazda quietly pull together an idea and then they stick with it which is why we now have a rotary engine in the MX30 that generates enough electricity to run the battery that runs the car!

Good to hear from you Bob, please keep up putting on more content...⭐⭐⭐
What’s he saying😳🤔
Thanks Bob, (and that's a great Skoda-green by the way)!
also i’ll say, you got yourself a clean ass haircut Bob💯💯🔥
that thing is straight up futuristic 😮😅
beautiful vehicle !!
What's up with the voice?
Cancer
@@BobFlavinVideo Damn, sorry to hear that.
Maith a fear Bob. Sterling work as always.
Wishing you all the best Bob love your videos. I've through level 7 prostrate cancer I received 20 sessions off radiation at Belfast City Hospital got my diagnosis may 2022 yes its hard a road but I'm feeling so good now I love your positive attitude mate stay safe.
I have a Koroq, the Elroq wont be it's replacement.
Wanted to love the MX-30 BEV ... But those doors! If Mazda stuck this powertrain into the almost identically sized CX-30 body then I think that they'd do a lot better with it
Looks like any other skoda, like they've got a one type design and thats it.
The same can be said for all the cars on the market today, it's the family look
@BobFlavinVideo my daughter has had them all, kamaq,kamiq etc only difference was the colour 😁👍🇮🇪
Boring AF.
You're doing a great job Bob and sound great best of luck with the recovery . I'm glad to see I'm not the only "old man who shouts at clouds" on that road. The swing people need to take coming out of the carpark and petrol station as they cannot see where those bollards are is mad. Only reason they were installed was to stop GAA parkers I would say. As for the car the MX30 EV itself really impressed me on a small spin I had with it. But the small range scared me! This would be perfect, but the price is nuts. What's the efficiency like? Would be concerned with the longevity of the rotary motor
Good video Bob interesting car
gIVE THE CAR A LICK OF FAIRY LIQUID!!!!!!
Nice review Bob, how was the actual efficiency of the car?
This car sounds good no range anxiety and it looks good Japanese reliabilty thanks Bob your looking better and sounding better God bless
Door design is a strange decision on a 4 door but at least it’s something a bit different, especially if you’re not using the back seats a lot.
You awesome Bob keep doing what you do best love youe videos, and your so right it is ok not to be ok, we as men should defo speak out so much more 👏👌👍
You sound fine to me, best of luck with your recovery. And I love the car, I ordered one a couple of weeks ago - can’t wait to get it (couple of weeks time)
The stubby suicide doors were an RX8 feature , but that was a "2 and a bit" seater rather than the 4 seats here. I love that Mazda took a leap of faith on this powerplant, it just feels that the execution falls short of the plan.
You couldn't buy this car as a taxi because of those doors.
The car is too small for a taxi.
@owenmcdonald5922 true it's only a four seater when I watched the rest of the video.
Bob you sound fine, might I say OK even?
Getting there but still another surgery ahead of me. If the wind blows right I’m grand 😂
Felix Wankel was such a bad man, the Nazi party threw him out! Great video Bob, nice car, shame about those rear doors.
A load of men from that era were bad!
Nice review Bob, many thanks for your work. Cheers from Canada.
Nice test and honest. I think a mention about trim levels and model type would've been useful as the 2008 looked to be a GT but not sure what the Captur was. Mine is the S Edition which has a lot of those nice little xtra's....Wireless Charging etc etc. Really enjoyed the review. Thank you.
All the best to you. Get well soon.
Great stuff bob, hope your well 👍
Great to see how many nice people are out there

Great review as usual Bob, great to see you looking and doing so well.👍👍👍
Almost 40 years have passed, but that RS200 is still ithe coolest car of them all.
Well done Bob, great to see you back at it this year 👏👏
Brilliant video Bob. What an awesome weekend, roll on 2025 already.
Looks like Faboulas Fun and thanks for including up and coming car nuts
Great video, Bob! Keep it up!
In 2025, Škoda Celebrates 130th Anniversary, Let's hope that with its anniversary it expands to Mexico, and returns to the United States
Great video as always Bob. Thinking of going for one myself. Would you be able to tell me why there are 2 different variants of the 2016 version? As in, for that year, there seems to be 2 generations overlapping maybe? Thanks
About 2 years ago I was going to a stag in Galway which started out paint balling about 20km west of the town. I was coming from South West Waterford in my 40kwh Leaf. Did a bit of planning the night before but it was reasonably straight forward, made 1 stop in Shannon to top up and that was enough to get me there. However on the way to Galway chugging along on the M18 the android auto connection in the car failed and froze the screen, neither me or my passenger realised it had happened and didn't notice anything was wrong until we were just outside Tuam. I dont think I have ever cursed so much in my life. That FCP in Tuam was a life saver, thankfully it was free when we arrived and I was able to get topped up and back on the road, we missed the safety brief for the paintballing but i still have both my eyes anyway. I got a bit of a doing from the lads on the night of the stag for my car choice but made it home with 2 additional passengers and no problems anyway!
Who’s we? You’re a one man band
Captur is maybe better and more comfortable but have you seen how beautiful that Peugeot is ?! 😢
The older seats would mean more room in the back, in fact acceptable short trip room as long as the person in front was not huge. It would be an interesting challenge to make that size of a vehicle safe a la Smart For2.
What is you saying
What
Great to see you back to your best bob the guvnor

There’s always one.
No problem, it’s been a trying year

Stopped watchingg when U said no manual .the reason most were DSG when the manual was available was U couldn't find one .my friend bought one new water 6 months then had to take a DSG when they couldn't get onew.hich he hated and got rid of after a few months
Super review, Bobs always good and so is the gorgeous Irish colleen. That's why I just had to watch it again, she's lovely.
Epic car and video Bob, sad to think that the was it's going with ev's I think we should say with petrol and diesel cars my opinion as I hate electric cars to dam expensive and expensive to charge outside of your home and the range is still terrible for your average price range of the average guy, top video Bob 👍👌
