- The Mazda CX-60 gets so much right... that it should probably be ILLEGAL! Seriously, it CHANGES EVERYTHING.
Mazda have given us an inline 6 cylinder petrol, diesel and PHEV powertrain. They've made their interior to the level of German Luxury. But, you will be paying some serious dollars for a family SUV. So should you buy the 2023 Mazda CX-60? We test EVERY drivetrain, take an in-depth look at the interior, exterior and how it drives, and will let you know our thoughts. Let's review the all-new Mazda CX-60!

Mazda is for me the best value and quality for money.
I have one and I can confirm that you can change the settings to allow touchscreen operation in CarPlay or AA while moving.
Only in europe
Recently ordered the PHEV as my company car here in the UK and can't wait till delivery day! Great review guys.
You guys are the bomb! Subscribed, shared, hilarious, my full support! x
I was hoping you guys would do this car! I am well and true a Mazda fan boy having them for over the past 20 years, mainly Mazda 3 and CX-5. I went to a launch of this and it is truely an amazing car. I just find it’s oddly positioned in the Mazda line up. You would go CX-5 or soon to be CX-90. Although not mentioned from Mazda Australia, I would imagine CX5 would be ending its life in near future. Love your work boys! 👍
P.S the white finishes around the cabin- I can see my daughters CC chip fingers putting cheesey marks everywhere 🤣🤣
Nice! I had my CX-90 PHEV GT ordered in June, can't wait for the arrival!
You can go into the settings and allow it to use touch screen while moving
Can't say I've test driven one yet (very soon) however looking at pricing and spec sheets I would have to agree with you guys in saying my powertrain pick would be the diesel. In the line-up I would say the pick is the GT with vision package, 98% of the features of the azami for several thousand less. Love the fact that mazda has seamlessly integrated a large screen without it taking over the dashboard like many manufacturers are doing.
Dont go diesel if you travel less than 30 minute one way journeys, you will kill the engine within 2 years.
The diesel tow capacity is 500kg less than the petrol.
Research the internal design of the Cx 60 diesel engine - I’d be staying well clear of it once you understand it’s complexity .
@@exploringsydneyandbeyond9059You dont need to just look at CX5 diesel problem in Mazda forum.
I am picking up my cx60 GT plug-in with vision pack on Friday have had 2 cx5 over the last 9 years
one of the best car review videos I have ever seen, you guys are funny ahahahaha
The CX 60 looks pretty impressive for its size and weight class!
Subscribed. A FUN channel!
Nice review, id go for Phev or inline 6 petrol sound wise and sport wise!
I test drove both 3.3t petrol and 2.5 phev on urban roads last weekend.
Exterior look is actually fantastic and Mazda red is shining out easily. The car is elegant and well-proportioned when you see it in person.
Interior atmosphere is phenomenal. Material quality is definitely on par with most German luxury brands. Personally not a big fan of large screens as you mainly focus on road being the driver. Compared to cx5,. it’s also roomer inside and I sit comrtortably at the back (1.8m). The new (for Mazda) Para Sun roof is a must.
In terms of driving, 3.3t petrol is puncher especially when it goes above 50km+ and its 6 cyclinders sounds more refined. 2.5 phev is ideal for low speed cruising at city as it seems handle lower speed better with ev assist. The ev experience is similar to toyota hybrid but then it’s a lot more powerful. When curising around town, you can’t say it’s an agile car given its weight but but body roll is well-controlled and steering is accurate.
The only downside to me is the gear shifting - it’s quite vauge at lower speed and not as direct as it’s 6-speed auto ( yet not as hesitated as VW dsg nor Benz 7-speeds so it’s still doing fine). Also CX-60 suspension is on firmer side but then it's is not unacceptable when going through bumps. I also watched many US CX-90 reviews recently and it seems the above 2 issues are not as visible as CX-60 - am wondering if Mazda did some tweaks already.
Overall it’s not prefect with some shortcomings but the 6 cyclinders engine setup defintely shines. For people who consider Lexus or Mercedes they should test drive and test it out. 3.3t GT range is about 73k drive away which is the bestbuy in its ranges.
Mazda needs to add adaptive suspension to this car. Also, the new 8 speed transmission will probably get better with future software updates.
@@silimarina. I don't think Mazda would do that, they had that system in the 80s/90s and replacing shocks on this kind of suspension is waaay to expensive, I don't think it goes that well with their philosophy
I'm confused... petrol and diesel "felt" faster but weren't faster on paper when tested... the PHEV was fastest and has the best fuel economy??? wouldn't that be the obvious choice?
Am From Cambodia 🇰🇭 and thank you for this video after I watch your video am reslly really have more and more to love Mazda CX-60 and can’t wait to test drive 🤧🤧
Hi guys love your work any comments much appreciated Subaru outback xt v mazda evolve I know you gave the Outback great reviews thanks Mark
Good review. How is the red colour looks directly, just keen to know
Been saving my cash for 2 years waiting for CX-70 3.3 petrol here in Canada. Hoping it's the approx same vehicle. Can't wait. Trading in my pro. modded 2013 Acura TL 3.7 SHawd.
Do you have the fuel consumption of the powertrain side by side?
This 6 inline engines would be epic on interstate highways & road trips!
YOUR BIGGEST KENYAN FAN RIGHT HERE, 18/07/2023
There is a setting to allow touch screen all the time for Android/Apple. Have it switched on myself.
Favourite power train - the PHEV because it qualifies as a low emissions vehicle therefore getting a FBT exemption. The diesel is the most responsive and pleasant to drive though.
That fbt exemption is so good. Makes this car quite reasonable
The fbt exemption is incredible… through novated lease, cost is comparable to a 45-50k car. Not sure why more people aren’t talking about this
Do you guys get the high power version of the 3.3T petrol? This one is 60hp down on power.
I can’t wait to tomorrow when I’ll go to receive my new CX-60 Diesel. All black!🤤🤤🤤
Congrats. Mine is jet black also.
Enjoy your new car
I'd prefer to see a new model Mazda 6 sedan with that inline 6 cylinder diesel..... please Mazda?
Could you tell me where you found the torque curve for the PHEV at 18:04 in the video please.
what I'm struggling to understand is the different gears that the diesel and the petrol reach 100kmh in, Mazda show both have the same gear ratios and final drive (the plugin does have a different final drive)- how can that be?
Great video, guys ! If you would compare the XC60 to a Bmw X3, which would you say has a better driving experience in terms of corners, ride quality and the overall driving feeling ? Thanks again !
The BNW because it could not possibly be as poor as the CX-60 is
I see the car doesn't absorb bumps and potholes well judging by the speed test footage. Does anyone know Which SUV has a decent suspension system where you don't feel the whole car jump when driving over rough terrain?
Mazda needs to bring the CX60 to the US.
Such a beautiful car. Unfortunately we don't get the 3.3 diesel and petrol not in the Netherlands... Both engines are so amazing 😍
why is that? We in Germany have the diesel and the car journalists love the engine.
PHEV owners ... if you feel the suspension is bad ... replace the regular shocks with Koni special active shocks for the CX-60 ... You'll be pleasantly surprised! AWESOME improvement 😁👍
Yeah the rear is terrible
If Bilstein made dampers for it, that would be perfect
I recnetly bought a CX60 and the risde is stiff how can I replace the suspension?
Soo how close is this to the Mazda cx70 that's coming to the states sometime in the Forever Future?
OMG😢Why here in Canada we need to wait for Cx70 when here it is a perfect Mazda for me😮😮
Typo error @17:50, otherwise outstanding review, guys!
You are SO right about inline 6s! 😍 How does the CX-60 compare to Sportage and Outlander in your opinion? What would you say is the use case for the PHEV?
Would you please introduce the speed test of 80 to 120/130 for passing B Doubles. I believe it's far more important than 0 to 100 which very few do except for hoons or on a drag strip?
[ps. I know 130KPH is beyond speed limits (except for the NT) but passing safely in view of on-coming vehicles I see as essential before returning to 110kph.]
70-130 km/hr is rated to take 6.8 seconds for the 2.5 PHEV model. 0-60 is 5.9. 80-120 is 3.9 seconds.
In the 3.3L model it accomplishes 80-120 km/hr in 5.3 seconds. 0-60 is 6.5 seconds.
@@brytonmunro5270 Thanks for the update. I'd still like Matt &Jacob to mention the stats (that you kindly provided to me) in The Official CAR SAUCE Video for the Viewers.
Nice review but PHEV likely to be most popular due to being tax free on novated leases.
Living in North America I have to say I am very envious as it's not available to our market.. I currently have a 2016 CX9 Signature and she has been perfect from day one. As I am the only one now I wanted to downsize but, nothing in the American Mazda market is really grabbing me like the CX-60.. size, power, value. I thought maybe CX5 but, does nothing for me especially looking at this one.. good review. Enjoy!
North America is supposed to get the CX70. Originally it was rumored to be very similar to this CX60
@@timw2083 Thanks I heard the same but, also heard it will have the same specs as the CX-90 but, instead of the 3rd row it will be a 5 passenger...
@@michaelanthony5441 I heard it from a salesman in Alabama, I hope he's wrong. The CX60 looks to be the perfect size. The CX90 is simply too big for my garage.
@@timw2083 You and I are in the same boat. I won't even park my CX9 in the garage. I have also heard recently the 70 would be between the 60 and 90 in size which maybe I could live with but, I want to be sure. My holding on to my CX-9 rides on the 70. As much as I love the 90 it is not practical for me.
@@michaelanthony5441 I think the CX70 is based on a wide body platform (for the American markets) like the CX90 but smaller in length while the CX60 is based upon a narrow body platform similar to the CX80. Markets usually will get the CX70/CX90 (like America) or the CX60 and CX80 (like Asia/Europe). Australia is unique in that it gets the CX60/CX80 but also the CX90 probably because Mazda sells a lot here.
Matt and Jacob are like the Australian version of Thomas and James from Throttle House, even the looks and hair style, it's uncanny! 😂
I'm binge watching all your videos, love your format and enthusiasm, keep hustling.
Metric system, fun to watch so I subscribed 😂
I really like this style of Mazda, definitely got that bmw vibe to it. I like how it's got 2 240v plugs. Perfect for playing JBL party box 1000 😂😂
Recent trip Sydney to Noosa saw 4 cars with flat tyres on the side of the road. Travelling without a full size spare is just asking for trouble in this country.
Just signed a novated lease of a red CX60 Azami. Payment is actually lower than renting 60K petrol car so I am happy.
My 2023 Mazda 3 AWD T HB has 250 HP and 320 lbs torque and is much lighter in weight. It is a really great car!
There is a setting to have touch screen all the time with CarPlay or Android Auto
did you guys forget to put the PHEV in sport mode?
Why dosnt mine have a household charger in the back?
Would love to see the inline6 3.3 diesel in the BT50 or maybe called BT60 😅😉😉
Doubt if the ' 6 ' will find its way into the sedans ?
Would be great if Mazda put that Turbo Diesel 6 into the BT-50, would be a sales hit.
You’d think the petrol V6 would sound the best but it’s actually the hybrid, that supercharge whine sound
Everything looks really good but I dislike the dash. I can't stand when the dash board literrally looks like it has a tablet docked on top of the dash board.
It's like a harry enfield show, good review tho 👌😄
Great review lads!! Thank you for being so enthusiastic! I love the 60 and it doesn't get enough credit here in the UK!
This car is great but i hope a sedan is released on this platform regardless of what I have heard from other sources.
The door close "thunk" actually sounded rattly.
Overall, nice RWD proportions make this tempting. I dislike the upswept side window at the rear. Wish the rear pillar looked like the CX90.This isn't available in the US yet, but I'll be considering it. I do wish they'd do an HO version of that six.
I think there was something loose in the door pocket.
Drink bottle in door he says this later in video. I got a CX60 and confirm door closure is normal.
Talking about 0-100 you should try XC60 T8 2023.. you will be more then surprised! Trust me, I drove both XC60 and CX60 and is a huge diference!
Just me, or did the door close @ 6:50 sound janky?
Sure the hybrid! Much more refined and sustainable technology that makes a huge difference. And consumption wowww
Only seen two here in The Netherlands on the road. Like many Mazda SUVs it has a weird and oddly proportioned styling. Mazda cars like the 6 are better looking imo.
Will it get into 8th gear in Holland ?😅
Perfect car for “stealth wealth “.
Maybe read some forums online from owners in Europe and Japan. Riddled with faults would be the summary.
it's not worth going diesel these days unless you bypass emissions crap that make them less reliable
How the hell did they make a diesel sound good?!?
The petrol inline 6 is also available in latin america, so sorry it is not exclusive for Australia
Diesel :). Have you all retried it after they redid the suspension?
Nice review Luka Doncic mavs 4ever
Hopefully the CX70 has similar dimensions
Is this the model that will be the CX-70 in the states ?
From what we're hearing, yes, sorta. Little wider (we're fatter)😅 and no diesel
“Knock it out of the park!” Good day mates!
Well done victor and hugo😂.. looking forward to CX90 variants
Only review that actually compliments the cx60 ride quality. How much were they paid off by Mazda 😂
they need to make a lightweight version
Interesting, other reviewers said the ride is very stiff and you guys are saying it’s designed for comfort
Not sure what they are on about, but this is our opinion, and that is theirs!
Its a soft ride. I got this car.
Mazda have an bespoke suspension tune for the Australian market; they tested it extensively there unlike the quick release they did in Europe.
I’m with the Carsauce guys here. I have the PHEV and was concerned before delivery about the ride, based on UK reports.
Not to worry. The ride is definitely firm. Firmer than my previous XC60, but not as firm as my BMW X3 M40i. Mazda tends towards a sportier ride than others such as Lexus, but having driven the NX450H+, the Mazda is far better imho. The Mazda ride won’t suit everyone, but that’s fine. I love it.
@@markanderson3618I love a hard ride 😊
Cant get the diesel here in the US either😢
I wish there was the higher tune petrol in this car like the CX-90, because that would be 100% the car for me.
Wolf uou biy this vs a volvo xxc 60
GV70 or the CX60? What say you?
Oh no, not fake exhausts. One thing i liked about Mazda was the dual pipes out the back.
You boys are setting the new benchmark for car reviews....keep up the great work!
Checked this car out & decided purchasing the poor cousin of the Lexus won't cut it. There was a lot of cheap in the cx60 & just couldn't justify the price for the lack of quality.
don´t brake hold it while lunch, its even quicker :D
Imagine those six shooter engines, in the next Miata.
Then it would only be half gay!
@@Noony79 small 🥒?
engine is to big and heavy for Miata
How does this compare with the Outlander PHEV?
I test drove both and think the outlander interior is more premium. The Takami is not to my taste.
Inline 6 turbo, AWD system with rear bias ---> skyline gtr.
Между BMW3 20D и Mazda CX60 3.3, избрах маздата. Който не е карал такъв двигател, няма да разбере :)
Been waiting for this car for months. So disappointing that in South Africa we only get 2 models both with 2.5l naturally aspirated powerplants. Boring! Don't even get a choice of wheel sizes and interior very bland. Not tempted away from BMW.... at least not in SA.
3.3 diesel just landed in SA and it does seem a great value proposition
At over $90K, the top of the line CX-60 is beyond most budgets and have to wonder if it is good value. Many of the features of the top of the line CX-60 were already standard on a KIA sorento GT LINE at $20K less.
Getting BMW vibes here
Man. My kids would ruin that cloth material in no time
Absolutely the diesel 3.3.
Every dimension except the height which is 1680mm
the price though 93k i don't know about that
Or 73k for a G40e GT.
Very exciting. I just can’t unsee that steering wheel! 😮😢
3:10 477 litres cargo
these guys have never been to japan and it shows as well as knowing very little about japanese culture. if you look at a lot of the things that japanese people make, like their knives (saws, etc.) for example, which are lauded in the chef & tool-making world (long history of samurai sword making, etc.) and their approaches to making things, they take their time and it's of a very high quality.
i don't understand why everything has to be compared with germany because they are not the only culture synonymous with producing quality.
