Mazda CX-60 Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
High quality interior	Slightly firm ride
Large boot	Plug-in hybrid tech could be more polished
Enjoyable to drive	Reliability concerns

Quick Summary

The Mazda CX-60 is a premium-feeling family SUV that arrived in 2022 as Mazda's first serious push into the upmarket segment. Available with a 2.5-litre plug-in hybrid petrol engine or a 3.3-litre mild-hybrid diesel, the CX-60 offers impressive practicality with 570 litres of boot space and up to 1,726 litres with the rear seats folded. The 2025 refresh brought suspension tweaks aimed at improving both handling and comfort, whilst maintaining the engaging driving dynamics Mazda is known for. Standard equipment across all trims is generous, including leather upholstery, heated seats, a head-up display, and a 12.3-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

The plug-in hybrid delivers 323bhp and 500Nm of torque with an official EV-only range of up to 39 miles, though real-world fuel economy depends heavily on charging habits. The diesel options provide 197bhp or 251bhp with impressive efficiency figures of up to 56.5mpg. Company car drivers benefit significantly from the PHEV's reduced benefit-in-kind tax. Whilst the ride is slightly firmer than some rivals and the plug-in hybrid technology could be more refined, the CX-60 combines stylish design, quality construction, and an engaging driving experience that justifies its premium positioning.

Best for: Drivers seeking a premium-feeling family SUV with engaging handling, company car users (especially with the PHEV), and those wanting a large boot with quality interior appointments.

Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising ultimate comfort over driving engagement, or those concerned about plug-in hybrid reliability and complexity.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the CX-60 if: You're seeking a premium-feeling family SUV with engaging handling, you're a company car user (especially with the PHEV), or you want a large boot with quality interior appointments.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise ultimate comfort over driving engagement, or you have concerns about plug-in hybrid reliability and complexity.

Competitive Position: The Mazda CX-60 is a compelling alternative to established premium rivals like the BMW X3 and Audi Q5, offering engaging driving dynamics, a high-quality interior, and a spacious boot at a more accessible price point. Whilst its overall CarGurus rating of 3.9 sits slightly below key competitors, it delivers genuine premium feel and Mazda's characteristic driving engagement. The plug-in hybrid option is particularly attractive for company car drivers seeking tax efficiency. However, potential buyers should weigh the slightly firmer ride and plug-in hybrid complexity against the CX-60's considerable strengths in design, quality, and driving enjoyment.
