Mazda's first proper rear-wheel-drive premium SUV — launched 2022 on the new Large Architecture platform. Mazda's pitch is to take on Audi Q5 / BMW X3 with a longitudinally-mounted inline-6 diesel and a PHEV that's actually quick. PHEV variant: 2.5 petrol + 17.8 kWh battery + electric motor = 320 bhp, 0-62 in 5.8s, ~38 mile EV range. 3.3 e-Skyactiv-D 6-cylinder diesel (197 / 251 bhp) with mild hybrid is the unusual European pick — straight-six diesels are basically extinct elsewhere. All UK CX-60s are AWD. Used PHEVs are a strong fleet-driver value pick.
