[@mikes9637]

Mazda has the best interiors for the price

[@mart_en]

1:31 This is really a nice design in the profile with very good proportions. Unfortunately this comes with the same drawbacks as most rear wheel driven cars. Because the front wheels are positioned so much further towards the bumper a lot of the wheelbase goes into the space between the doors and the front axle and therefore less space is available in the rear for the knees.

[@differencemaker242]

Yes. But most people will have plenty of room. This guy is 6'2 and sat behind himself and STILL had about an inch of space. Now most people won't have that situation.

[@Ondrarix]

I have 2022 Mazda 3 and despite the naturally aspirate engine which I just love and the lovely exterior, what sold me the most is the interior. Mechanical switches for all the things that matter, beautifully handled leather coating on all the surfaces. The inside of the car just feels great and I am super happy they stay true to this concept even at their newest model. I am not fan of SUVs but this car I would consider for my next purchase without doubt.

It's not enough just to step into the premium. For Mazda, they have to be at the same high level of everything as for example Audi.

[@sandorbence2067]

Mazda is a company I can always root for. They are small but still refuse to follow the trends, create an excellent design, use good materials and starting to have good tech for a reasonable price. Something unique, something that can make me excited for a car in the lower price ranges. Even if they have weird models (like the MX-30) or the rust issue (although thay should be fixed by now). Can't wait for their rotary hybrids.

What a great review Thomas! Just when I thought selecting a PHEV was the silver bullet during this transition to non-ICE transportation, you deliver a compelling argument for going all-in on electric or combustion due to the nature of the more natural driving experience each deliver. Your live analysis is thoughtful and very insightful.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks, please recommend us :-)

[@1ewi5]

You will have to consider hybrid cars or electric cars due to the fuel prices these days. PHEV may be an outdated idea but surely you can't go back to a full combustion engine if you look at how unstable energy prices can be.

[@eleanormassaro5195]

@@1ewi5 agreed! Mazda needs either a hybrid or PHEV to be competitive in today’s market!

[@DJAYPAZ]

There are pros and cons for PHEV vehicles. Depending on driving requirements and available recharging options, a PHEV might be the silver bullet. The potential to save a lot of money on fuel costs, reduce your Co2 output while not having range anxiety worries can’t be ignored. The driving experience for any vehicle will vary the same as a drivers style. Test driving a vehicle yourself is the only reliable way to judge if it feels right.

[@DJAYPAZ]

@@1ewi5 Agreed. The latest PHEVs have extended ev only range making it possible to carry out most if not all local trips solely in EV mode. The transition away from fossil fuels will take some years. Over that time, a PHEV may well be a good transition vehicle.

Hey Thomas, thanks for the great work. Will you be getting to test the Audi A3 40 TFSI AWD? What's your take on Audi still providing the 1.4 (150bhp) instead of the 1.5 in many markets? Would you suggest a buyer avoid that engine or is it still refined and reliable enough?

I have a feeling that the 1.4 will be cleared out at facelift. Australia has received the 1.5 recently.

[@SDav21]

Mazda is one of the best carmakers at the moment. They're all on their own without any partners etc and they're doing amazing things. They're making inline 6 petrol and diesels and because of that Mazda will be the next brand I buy to replace my Mercedes since the next E Class will be silly 2 litre 4 cylinders only.

This vehicle is too big for me, even so - and considering i haven't driven it, it still is very appealing and i like Mazda's designing ethic. The exterior looks good even though i've often felt that grille is too massive, but it works fine here. The rear light's look like they stick out quite a bit - easy to damage? I really like how the indicators blink-fade, good touch, but they are a little small. I always have the feeling of their interiors are BMW-esque, however the controls & displays are much nicer than the current new Beemers - this CX60's instrument dials look great, easy to read and simple nice design and physical buttons is wonderful! Center console size is a concern. The engines seem nice for this model, i just wish Mazda's smaller vehicles had a bit more poke (2.5L not usually available in UK). Thanks again Thomas & Co for the review.

I am a big Mazda fan but in my opinion it is going to be tough for them to compete in the luxury segment at a similar price point; it is not a flaw in the car, more a flaw in their marketing strategy. Having said that, a Rav 4 Prime is also 60k fully loaded, so we will see what happens.

I'm impressed by Mazda this car. Seems like it's a entry level premium/luxury car. I drive nothing but BMW'S so congratulations Mazda. I think this car should sell well

[@Edlito550]

Love your accent and how easy going you sound Thomas! Love watching your videos :) And I agree, PHEV sounds weird, P Hev is better

[@jamesconnolly3042]

This car is the love child of a BMW X3, and a Jaguar F-Pace. But made better…..like a Mazda.

[@behzadnasr]

I am Behzad from Sweden I'm confused about which one it's better ! I wanna buying between Mazda Cx60 plugin or RAV4 plugin or Hyundai Tucson plugin ???? Which one is better?

[@mart_en]

I like your new height Thomas ;-) That's exactly how tall I am as well which means that I will now know right away if I will have enough space on the back seats or not ... 😀

[@bamgineer5862]

Mazda or RAV4 PHEV? Your pick would be?

[@Rooseveltdunn]

Mazda because of the RWD biased system, it would drive better and feel less generic.

The turn signals that work with delay do not dazzle the person behind and the surrounding traffic (e.g. standing at a red traffic light). Such as by a photo flash. A good idea.

[@ranimbill9331]

If this is so good, imagine the cx70 and cx90 when we see them !

[@trippplefive]

but he said driving dynamics aren’t that great and assuming that 18” wheels would solve some of the issues which i doubt

[@ranimbill9331]

@@trippplefive I know , I'm worried that it's,not as smooth on the road as the CX9

[@michaelsafar6326]

The Mazdas look sooo good at every angle except the back of the car. If they fixed the look at the back of the car this would be the most perfect perfect perfect SUV of all time.

I love the fact that the design is calm and restrained. Most other manufacturers are forming the sheet metal into pointless and weird shapes.

[@changsangma1915]

Calm & restrained is what use to come with the jelly bean design & any auto enthusiast know the reputation of that design....blobs.

[@TheSultan1470]

Mazda has a "flowing" style I'd say.

Would love to see your review of the CX-50 Turbo Premium Plus. I feel it has what you are missing.

[@autogefuehl]

Noted!

[@jstrig]

I can't wait for a version of this to come to the US as the CX-70

[@differencemaker242]

Based on this review, I don't think they should unveil the PHEV version of the cx70 in America until they fix that bouncy suspension issue. That's not going to be safe and it's a horrible start to sell something defective when you're trying to get a new product off the ground. Just sell the 6 cylinder version until they perfect the PHEV. They have a year to get it right.

[@jstrig]

@@differencemaker242 The American version will have different suspension tuning

[@differencemaker242]

@@jstrig IT BETTER! You're competing against the big boys now for the big bucks. You can't go into that arena with a defective product. Worse, they could get sunk before they even set sail. But Mazda likes using Europe for their testing

As for Swiss vehicles tax system,pay every year for licence plates,PHEV are the cheap way to have great ICE power...but paying pennies for CO2 emissions 😅 Not as much Eco frendly as a EV, but for my mountain region with few charging stations and low winter temperatures,PHEV is the best choice.🤗

[@iyadmajdi]

The CX-60 can definitely win hearts even with the small space in the rear seats. Lexus SUVs will have some competition to watch out for

[@michal8648]

hi thomas what would you buy a BMW X3 30e or a Mazda cx 60 or a BMW X3 30i? Thank you for your opinion...:)
