Based in Japan, Mazda has been manufacturing reliable yet innovative cars since 1920. Previously known for a range of stylish, fun to drive sports cars and family cars, the brand has more recently branched out into the electric vehicle market with the quirky MX-30.
Key Mazda highlights
Mazda is a car company that doesn’t follow the herd. Whether it’s with unique designs or quirky engineering solutions, the Japanese brand isn’t afraid to do something nobody else has tried.
When Mazda’s focus was on combustion engines, it pursued unusual rotary engine technology that defined its flagship RX sports car for decades. We can’t fail to mention what may be the company’s biggest hit: the Mazda MX-5 sports car, which combines fun, reliability, build quality and affordability.
As a result, Mazda began to make cool design and enjoyable driving experiences core to its business, even with its more sensible family cars.
Mazda and EVs
Mazda made no secret of the fact that it had been working on energy-efficient cars, hybrid models, and hydrogen-powered vehicles for years. Yet it was 2021 before the first fully electric Mazda hit the market.
It appears to have been worth the wait, however. Mazda has taken a typically unusual approach to EV leasing with a smaller battery car that has a lower environmental impact and is much more economical, using fewer natural resources than bigger battery EVs.
Top Mazda models
To date, there’s just one option for leasing a Mazda electric car: the Mazda MX-30. This compact, urban-focused SUV is the ideal electric car leasing choice for anyone looking for a local runaround that is still capable of delivering an enjoyable driving experience. The MX-30 has won all kinds of awards since its introduction, including ‘Design of the Year’ in the Japanese Car of the Year awards, making it an excellent option for your next Mazda lease deal.
Similar brands to Mazda
Mazda is one of the last remaining independent car manufacturers in the world. Unlike Lexus, which is owned by Toyota, and Audi which is part of the VW Group, Mazda is its own brand, so it’s difficult to liken it to anyone else. Similar EV offerings to the MX-30 include models from DS, Peugeot and Kia.

We've made leasing an electric car easier than ever
There are countless benefits to a Mazda lease deal when compared to other finance methods such as outright purchase or PCP. For example, the upfront costs are much lower, with the following monthly payments being fixed at a low rate for the entirety of the contract. It also allows you to drive away a new car with the ability to swap it every few years, taking away any depreciation worries too. As a stylish brand that will branch out into further EV releases, it’s a great time to get on the Mazda bandwagon.
You can also enjoy some great benefits by leasing with GRIDSERVE, such as our superb Electric Highway with EV charging stations all around the UK, our tree planting programme with 100 trees planted for every lease, and expert delivery and customer care.
Mazda as a brand has a good reputation for developing cars that are safe and reliable when driving every day, and its electric car offering is no exception. The MX-30 has a five-star Euro NCAP rating, meaning it’s one of the safest vehicles on the market.
The price of your Mazda leasing deal will be dependent on several factors such as how long you’re leasing the vehicle for, how much of an initial rental payment you’re making, the annual mileage limit you’ve set, and whether you’re leasing for business or personal use. Be sure to set the deal to your preferred contract terms to find out exactly how much your Mazda leasing deal would be per month.
Mazda’s sole current electric car offering is the MX-30, which can be charged from 10% to 80% charged in just 30 minutes thanks to its compact battery. Simply find one of the hundreds of EV charging stations across the GRIDSERVE Electric Highway and replenish your Mazda’s battery in no time.
With GRIDSERVE, you can choose to lease a Mazda for either 24, 36 or 48 months, which allows you to pick the best option to suit your personal needs. This means you’ll never be stuck with a car for longer than you would like or need it for, allowing you to switch to a new car at the end of the deal.
