6:47 if I'm not mistaken, Mazda was the first car maker to do pulsating LED indicators back when they launched the CX30, when everyone else was copying Audi's cascading indicators. Mazda said they made their led indicators look like old school filament bulb indicators, hence the pulse. Now it seems BMW is copying Mazda! That's an indication (pun intended) that Mazda is doing things well in their attempt to enter the luxury car market.

[@tier1detailing]

Another page that BMW could take out of Mazda's book....NO GLOSS BLACK! It's a miracle! A car at half the cost, with no cheap, glossy plastic...what a time to be alive

[@PaulMeier-cu3ds]

[@unowen-nh9ov]

Indicators NOT luxury. If Mazda were learning from BMW they would have introduced I6 rwd last century, BMW have moved on to EV.

​@@tier1detailingIf u call that living & going by ur nom de troll u do.

[@AI-qd4vb]

@@tier1detailing you can have bimmers without gloss black if you want... Its just the base trim. And the Mazda its not half the price, lol... And also got its share of hard textured plastics. Not to mention the driving dynamics and mechanics of the bimmer more than makes up for the price difference. The Mazda is great value but no way near the refinement, driving comfort and efficiency of the germans. Its nvh issues and steering quirks are quite known. Its new inline6 engines are quite underpowered and not that smooth. Theres a lot of work for Mazda to even pretend to be in the same segment as the germans.

[@oskarandersson7659]

You have reached a level of extreme efficiency (no pun intended, Germany!) delivering a massive amount of facts that are basically all interest points, doing a masterful job of cutting out anyhthing not really worth mentioning and focusing on all important stuff swiftly and effortlessly!

This is good synopsis / comparison of Mazda's line (which is very confusing to me ). If this CX-80 Exactly as shown (being a little smaller than the USA CX-90/70) with the USA's Straight 6 Turbo S , I'd order it Tomorrow. For comparison - aside from solely against the X5 - Acura's MDX Advance is a definite competitor. Without producing a complete Matrix of the features of each, suffice it to say, The 2024 MDX Advance (non Type S) is about $10K MORE than a CX -90 with the Turbo 6 (not the Turbo S ). The 2024 Type S MDX is $13K MORE than the CX-90 or CX-70 (whih is puzzling on Mazda's part) Premium Plus Turbo S model! The two SUV are comparable in size, HP/Torque, interior room, and other features. The MDX adds Massaging seats, Air suspension, auto dampening suspension, interior Light Show, a spectacular ELS Sound system vs the Mazda CX-90 Premium Plus Turbo S. Acura just announced their 2025 MDX Type S with some refreshing enhancements - most notable - was the elimination opf the Touch Pad and going with a Touch Screen InfoT. system screen. But the price is now circa $78K vs $62 K for the TOL CX-90 /70 Premium Plus Turbo S. BTAIM, I would NOT opt for a PHEV. But I would opt for a Gas/Electric Hybrid like the newer CRVs.

How would they make an Estate of an SUV?

[@anomuumit]

@@LafemmebearMusic By taking the overall design language and lowering it down in height to a normal car size. The current Mazda 6 is missing the sleek lines that these CX SUVs have. The current Mazda 6 front wheel arch curve on the side panel makes it look like the whole body is bent from the A-pillar.

[@AWMJoeyjoejoe]

Since cx-9, personally, Mazda has produced very good car. In my opinion, mazda has perfected how a luxury suv vehicle should look like. The shape is symmetrical or proportional and it has great road presence.

[@alpher3512]

Thanks Thomas for pointing out the small rear blinker trend... It's really annoying because most modern cars have such bright brake and tail lights, therefore you can't see the blinkers very well...

great overview Thomas, love the Mazda interiors, had Stone leather in my 2018 CX-5 and deliberate non-touchscreen infotainment. Key fobs are now available in vehicle colour too. Indicators should be on the outer edge of the light clusters, had to see some of these small ones at night with bright LEDs. Not as bad as KIA Sportage, whose indicators are under boot line bumper, where you cant see them in traffic.

[@PaulMeier-cu3ds]

Thanks for this preview which I looked at with great interest having bought a CX60 PHEV last year. This car is simply too big for what I want and I already find the CX60 much heavier than I am used to. The UI/UX and buttons are completely familiar and it is a real plus for Mazda that you can now get into all their EV or PHEV ranges and know immediately how they work without retraining. I find the build and features which come as standard rather than extensive expensive options more than premium enough. So for German and other premium brands you have to decide whether the more elaborate suspension and maybe all wheel steering plus the badge are really worth double the price. From the figures mentioned the PHEV setup in this larger CX80 may be a bit under powered compared with the CX60.

[@sorinstrat103]

Looks awesome 🎉🎉🎉

[@aussie8114]

I have a new top spec G35 CX5. Everything works as it should. I love driving it 😎 Mazdas don’t have the status of the likes of a nice X3 or X5 though.

[@bartgugelot5788]

Thomas, love your channel but if I may suggest that you please also mention the NM of the engines. Horsepower alone doesn’t say enough. Perhaps the global audience makes this tricky but you manage around that with CM and inches as well. Thank you

[@MingParisan]

It’s fun to see you using the collapsable metal ruler 😂 16:50

[@paulkazzer]

In Australia we get the CX 60 and the larger longer wider CX 90 which makes sense. The suspension and transmission were poor in early models being new in house designs. Fixes are on the way. Deep crystal blue metallic is beautiful in the Azami SP spec with light or tan interior.

[@ZacharyT94]

We’re also getting the CX-70 and CX-80 in Aus as well, bit of a gamble for Mazda to offer all 4 large platform models but they might be using us as a test market as they know Mazda is hugely popular here.

[@thescavwithnothingtolose1224]

I love Mazda's newest design language and interiors. If they reintroduced the Mazda6 as a premium (below Luxury) estate/wagon, I'd scoop it up in a heartbeat

[@shroomyesc]

CX-60/80 difference definitely makes more sense than the North American 70/90 duo, however I'm disappointed to see the same bulb-like rear styling from the NA duo has been brought over for this CX-80. I was fearing that, since it needed to be lengthened for the third seating row but especially from diagonal angles the rear end looks really bloated compared to the CX-60.

[@Nadan404]

It’s gorgeous

[@scooter5940]

I love Mazda and we own a CX-9. But I never considered a CX-70 or 90 here in the States before buying my 2024 X5. It’s a nice car, but it ain’t no X5 (nor is it half the CX-5’s price when equipped with the higher output engine).

[@sternskov2629]

The X5 can’t match the Mazda CX 60, 70, 80 or 90 in design and in quality. And just one detail, it is not the price that determines whether a car is premium. But the quality and the materials. The fact that people are stupid enough to overcharge a German car is people's own problem.

[@scooter5940]

⁠@@sternskov2629 yeah, that’s just arbitrary, vague nonsense. The notion that “premium”, however you define such vague term,is not correlated with cost and price is just silly. Side note. I didn’t equate price with “premium”. I simply pointed out that suggesting this Mazda is half the price of the X5 is not accurate.

[@Capo51]

Mazda has always be known of very good quality. The design of this model looks really high quality, with a sense of premium. If would need a car of this size, this car would be definitely on the buying list. The price is really attempting, also here in 🇫🇮. Thank you again for a great review. 👍

[@andreykovachev7002]

The real problem with the CX-60 was not the size, but the poor insolation, indecisive transmission, bad handling and rough ride. If they have fixed all this I will buy it, otherwise no. I am currently in the market for a new family car as my family got a +1 boost recently :)

Overall, I find the design of the CX-70/90 and CX-60/80 sides a little flat and bland. I'd rather see some character, sculpturing or sweep to them, like the CX-5. Also I'd like less roundness to the rear roof line and have it a little more vertical. Thanks again for the reviews.

I wish the CX-50 was available here in the UK. I think they look stunning. Would have one in a heartbeat if I could.

[@StalwartMan]

Danke.

[@siiNke]

i just need them to redesign rear and its top!

[@yasumijikan6613]

It has a slightly different design compared to the CX-90, and I think it is better. Especially on the top half of the rear portion, it doesn’t buldge out too much! Nice!

[@vadym8713]

is it? haven't noticed any differences )) But I haven't seen real CX90 here in Europe

[@sbond1963]

Is that going to be available in the United States?

[@michaels3003]

No.

[@eal_ppl]

Well, youtube still sometimes dont show new videos in subscription feed, but showing it in recommendations...

[@autogefuehl]

Best is to regularly also check our channel manually 😎

Great review as always Thomas, not sure about that interior though 🧐

[@vinnie1827]

Does anyone know if and when the new mazda 6 will be released?

[@michaels3003]

How would they know if the company is keeping this a "secret?"

[@vinnie1827]

Maybe Erlkönig

[@davidperry3531]

This is confusing from Mazda. In Australia we have the CX3, CX5. CX60, CX90 which can exceed $100,000 and now the CX80. Too many models with small differences in size and all looking the same. The current CX60 and CX90 have some basic problems with hard suspension and a rough auto transmission operation which haven't really been addressed . No really comparable with BMW.

[@michaels3003]

I watched an Australian YT video recently stating that the transmission works properly after a reprogramming.

[@orig_gee_man]

The light color cloth on the door and dash will be dirty in a week... Wonder if Mazda will replace the CX-5 in Europe as it cannot be accessed every market. I love the CX50...

[@mso8190]

Has Mazda addressed the suspension issues for the CX-60? Does the CX-80 use the same suspension? Mazda need to update the infotainment system.

[@vadym8713]

NO, Mazda DONT need to upgrade an infotainment - everybody else should look at Mazda and do the same - this is much better that current German rivals/ I just hate touchscreens

[@Dzinbhudist]

They fixed CX-60 with new dampers, my cousin has one and dampers were replaced under warranty no more jogging/jumping…

[@rhystheredwatson5974]

Not sure how many times you would have 3 6 feet plus people all in line ? I'm currently in USA renting a grand Cherokee lwb 7 seater which is huge and even that won't take 3 6 feet plus in line.

[@biggeststeppa1]

It's a wagon wanting to be an SUV! This is a good thing!

[@richard6946]

The PHEV on this is not great..

[@tomasbanys1816]

When is the test drive?

[@autogefuehl]

probably in summer!

[@jimmy.christian]

Australia getting CX 60 CX 70 CX 80 CX 90

[@saeednrzadeh4754]

In terms of cabin and features Mazda might be good choice, However in terms of drive train and driving dynamic the difference is day and night between these two.

[@autogefuehl]

Thats true actually

[@chrisgray4239]

CX80 will sell well in Australia...CX8 already does, CX90 a tad too large for us...should be a CX70 in North America, sorry you missed out. The lines on the current CX8 are beautiful

[@rowanbyers2071]

Particularly nice colour. Can we have the power outputs in kilowatts. English speaking countries such as Australia haven't used horse power since the mid 1970's.

[@marcusoctober4856]

For the price, I'm taking this over the X5

[@Roy-vb3op]

MAZDA USA, bring cx80 to US with 3rd row deleted and rename it as cx70 please 🥺

[@David_Journey]

Narrow models will be ridiculed in US market where size matters above all

[@fduran6993]

I like the design of CX90 which resembles Volvo Xc90. That said I would like a petrol engine together with 5 seats version.

[@matthiaskoehler1504]

I have to say that the Mazda vision of interior design and haptic button control interface is what I really love! Sadly all the German manufacturers don`t think so. It`s hard to get a new company car without glossy plastics and the capacitive BS!

[@szm9924]

Not a bad car, but it will clearly not steal any BMW customers

[@neilaltschuler6064]

Plug in?

[@rudy7631]

The high voltage battery is 17.8 KWH like the CX-60. You mentioned 14.2 KWH. Much bigger fuel tank than the CX-60.

[@cricho15]

So much better UI than the BMW, but i don't like chubby tanks at all. A new 6 would be interesting with the new v6 diesel engines.

[@saudmd5638]

Mazda has suspension and transmission issues for all of cx-90 and cx-60. Unfortunately there are both not comfortable nor smooth. I’m assuming the same for this model most likely. Mazda used to make a nice car but they failed this time while rushing into production of unfinished product. An owner here speaking and waiting for fix

[@autogefuehl]

Keep us updated!

[@100M2B]

Hey Thomas, you don't get Buick in Europe? 2025 Buick Enclave Avenir looks really good so I'm comparing it with Mazda.

[@autogefuehl]

sadly not m8 !

[@AHarker100]

Maybe my next car.

You missed the booth width :( I always watch your videos because of real both size test. Its very important because amount of liters is not very useful information these days as manufacturers measure this very differently.

[@andikahaikal]

3rd row.. 😮‍💨😮‍💨 Think they should use cx90/70 length instead.

[@SDav21]

I prefer the way the Mazda's lights pulsate versus the BMWs.

[@neilaltschuler6064]

In USA too?

[@jdmguy44]

Europe and Japan only I understand
