What Mazda had in mind when bringing it to life

When Mazda introduced the CX-30, the original intentions were to have this subcompact crossover slide in between the CX-3 and the CX-5 in the SUV lineup. But due to the immense popularity of the CX-30, it may be overshadowing the CX-3 and has created cause for Mazda to change direction with its plan for the CX-30. Instead of slotting between SUVs, Mazda is planning to phase out the less impressive CX-3, hopeful the CX-30 will be a more successful replacement in the crossover portfolio.
