Prices and final specifications for the all-new Mazda CX-60 have been confirmed for Australia ahead of its arrival in June. It will come in as a large SUV sitting above CX-5, featuring some interesting new inline-six engine options and a plug-in hybrid.
Three main model grades are going on sale in Australia, spanning from the Evolve, GT to the top Azami. All three models come with three different engine choices; a 3.3-litre turbo-petrol inline-six, a 3.3-litre turbo-diesel inline-six, and a 2.5-litre four-cylinder plug-in hybrid.
Outputs span from 209kW and 450Nm for the petrol six, and 187kW and 550Nm for the diesel six. Mazda says the petrol six can dash from 0-100km/h in 6.9 seconds, with the diesel claimed in 7.3 seconds.
The flagship powertrain, the 2.5 petrol hybrid, develops a combined 241kW and 500Nm, including a 100kW electric motor. Mazda says 0-100km/h takes just 5.9 seconds. Fuel economy is rated at 2.1L/100km and it can drive on electric power alone for a range of 76km.
As standard all models feature a 10.25-inch infotainment screen inside (Azami pictured), with a 7.0-inch digital gauge cluster for the six-cylinder models and a 12.3-inch display for the hybrid. All come with a surround-view camera system, digital radio with an eight-speaker sound system (at minimum), and dual-zone climate control and a wireless phone charger.
Going for the GT trim level adds a 12.3-inch infotainment screen and the 12.3-inch gauge cluster across all engines. The GT also comes with 20-inch alloy wheels, a panoramic sunroof, and a 12-speaker Bose sound system.
At the top, the Azami features unique 20-inch wheels, body-coloured exterior mirrors, adaptive LED headlights, ventilated front seats, and a Nappa leather upholstery. Full adaptive cruise control and traffic support is also standard.
