Mazda CX-60 (2022-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
High quality interior	Slightly firm ride
Large boot	PHEV system could be more polished
Enjoyable to drive	Some key equipment items merely optional

Quick Summary

The Mazda CX-60 is the brand's flagship SUV and its first plug-in hybrid (PHEV), representing a significant push into the premium market to rival the likes of Audi and BMW. As Mazda's most powerful road car, it combines a stylish design with a high-quality interior and impressive practicality. The 570-litre boot is larger than most key competitors, and is complemented by flexible 40/20/40 split-folding rear seats. While rear passenger space is comfortable, it doesn’t feel substantially larger than in the smaller CX-5.

True to Mazda’s brand identity, the CX-60 offers an engaging driving experience with firm suspension that limits body roll and provides a good connection to the road, though this may not suit those seeking maximum comfort. The PHEV powertrain delivers strong performance, but the engine can be noisy under hard acceleration and the system lacks the ultimate polish of some rivals. Running costs are low for company car drivers thanks to tax benefits, and while standard equipment is generous, desirable features like radar cruise control remain on the options list.

Best for: Company car drivers, buyers seeking a stylish family SUV with a premium-feel interior, and those who value an engaging driving experience.

Not ideal for: Those who prioritise a soft, comfortable ride, or buyers who want the most refined plug-in hybrid system available.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the CX-60 if: You are a company car driver, or you want a stylish family SUV with a high-quality interior and an enjoyable, engaging driving experience.

Consider alternatives if: Your top priority is a soft, comfortable ride, or you are looking for the most polished and refined plug-in hybrid system on the market.

Competitive Position: The Mazda CX-60 successfully carves out a niche between mainstream and premium SUVs. It offers a more engaging drive and a higher-quality cabin than rivals like the Ford Kuga, while significantly undercutting premium competitors such as the Audi Q5. While its firm ride and unpolished PHEV system are compromises, its combination of style, practicality, and driver appeal makes it a compelling and distinctive choice in a crowded market.
