@@Justsomegamergamingandstuff Yeah right. Different animals entirely. Have you any concept of the daily running and (more important) maintenance costs of those vehicles? Not an apples and apples comparison. As I discovered when I had to have my Maserati brake pads and rear disks replaced (Brembo's so probably the same as an RS) it is shockingly expensive - and I had a couple of quattros prior to the Levante S.

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

Loved the review as always! The CX60 is quite a nice alternative to the BMW X3, considering that the CX60 is a RWD based D-segment SUV like the X3. It looks quite nice (both inside and out); however, I am quite disappointed that Mazda decided to follow the same route as Volkswagen AG and put quad fake exhausts on the CX60. But despite that, I’d go for the CX60. And fun fact: the CX60 is sold (or is gonna be sold) in Europe, South Africa, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. It won’t be coming to North America; instead, they’ll get the wider CX70.

[@erikstenquist7577]

Nice review! I live in Sweden and took delivery of my CX-60 Takuma one week ago. I agree that the quality is good, and the electric range is better than advertised!

Does it have regenerative braking? The reviewer says it does not; that would be a deal breaker for me. (I have to wait for the CX-70 coming out later this year, the CX-60 isn't for sale in the US, sadly.)

[@tyler.greene]

Hi @autosocialuk - Great review as always and you know I do love your reviews - however.... there is regen braking! Its in the centre console set up and you can choice between low of high regen :) Just wanted to point it out :)

[@eamonnmcdermott1939]

Stunning car yet again from Mazda. I hope their gamble pays off competing with its German rivals. This car stands out from its "premium" rivals with an amazing design, luxurious interior and driving dynamics for a very competitive price. With German brands you have to pay extra for almost everything. Another selling point for me is that it will be more reliable than its "premium" rivals. Bravo Mazda!!

[@AutoSocialUK]

I agree; it’s nice to get all the good bits included and then just decide if you want a sound system and extra luxuries. I really wasn’t sure on the brand at first look but it has really grown on me.

[@bondjamesbond9041]

Well said. I completely agree.

[@richfixescars]

Mazda is becoming a quality alternative to the ubiquitous German brands. The interiors are very high quality for the price point. Hopefully some of this tech trickles down to the replacement for the CX-5.

[@krzysztofkmiecik7231]

Looks very good.

[@Mr_Dink]

Of course there is regenerative breaking! If you push the brake pedal, the car breaks just with the electric engine. Only if you brake harder the real brake is used. And you can preset two stages of recuperation when lifting the foot off the acceleration pedal.

[@AutoSocialUK]

As you lift off of the accelerator the car does not begin to brake on its own like you have the option to do in other hybrids

[@Mr_Dink]

@@AutoSocialUK I'm sure it does. In the menu you can choose between normal and strong.

[@AutoSocialUK]

@@SliceTube I wouldn’t say I’m ‘confusing’ it with one peddle driving as very few cars have that and one peddle is quite extreme but there is an absence of ‘brake assisted driving’ and there is no ‘brake mode’ which increases its intestacy.

[@ukgroucho]

@@AutoSocialUK It has regen and it will show you where you stand in terms of braking using regen or transition to err 'brake pad' based braking... left hand dial shows it. I've only driven one for an hour and a half test drive (before I ordered) but that was definitely there.

" It gives respectable power, however soon you run out of the battery and it becomes sluggish. Just like all hybrids" truer words were never spoken. That's enough learning for a week. Am not doing anything intellectual for the rest of the day. I'll just sit here meditating upon this discourse till bedtime.

[@sak1339]

Lovely location! And a great looking SUV that is not (yet) sold here in the USA. Here, the marque is not seen as a competitor to the luxo-German brands. Rather it might compete with upscaled versions of Japanese/US rivals simply because of the higher standard of interiors that have become a Mazda Feature. This PHEV with a 39 mile range as an EV is excellent (and good looking in and out) and should be a big hit in the USA. As car prices escalate here, I think this car should sell very well if Mazda USA introduces it here. (Regen brakes are a feature that must be added) Thanks for another excellent, detailed review, again!

[@AutoSocialUK]

It would sell well, it’s like that this would be a small SUV over there though!

Is the driving dynamics still as good as the CX-5 and CX9? I'm still getting used to the new exterior head and tail lights, but that interior is simply elegant and tremendously practical, especially in a more lively color combination. Too bad it will take some time before it comes to Canada. Thanks for the early review Tish! 👍

[@Cpt.P]

It actually is way better than the CX5 as far as i Could tell. I had the chance of a Test Drive a few days ago.

[@ull4h]

The only thing that disappoints me is the lack of radar-guided cruise control, especially on a spec like this. It's turned into a deal-breaker for me since I rely so much on it in my current car; I really wish it came as standard as it'd push me to get it, but unfortunately I'll have to veto it, which is a shame because the rest of the car seems awesome.

Did not bother with the RAV4 (or the Lexus) as the kinda CVT transmission just bothers me..... Did try a Hyundai Tucson (and you get great discounts if you are a National Trust member - like £3k) but it's sluggish by my standards - although very smooth and some lovely technology. Ordered a CX-60 Exclusive and added the two packs that did not add the 20 inch wheels (the comfort pack?) in that lovely red.

[@Beorn.]

I've previously owned a CX-30GT Sport tech and that was very nice, I got to sit in a CX-60 and it is even better than my 30. I will definitely be getting a 60 as soon as I can. A big thing with me is the interior materials . A lot of cars use cheap nasty plastics on their interior (or should that be their inferior's). The worst being described as " vegan" which as fas as I'm concerned is a euphemism for nasty "pet" plastic or polyethylene terephthalate. Google that if you've not heard of it, I urge you "is pet bad for my health" then tell me your OK sitting in it on a hot day! I did email Mazda who confirmed both the CX-30GT and CX-60 are free from this chemical which is a good reason I'm going to get one.

Is there going to be a hybrid by itself? I don't want a plug in just yet.

[@ukgroucho]

It will charge itself on the go but if you have a chance to plug it in then you reap the benefit of some 'cheaper' motoring. PHEVs do what 'hybrids' do when their batteries are depleted... Apart from their slightly higher cost - because they have bigger batteries - I'm not sure why you would pick a hybrid over a PHEV

No regen, really?? I sure hope not. I found this on Australian Mazda dealers website: "Additionally, the AWD system will maximise the amount of energy that can be recovered from all 4 wheels when braking using an advanced regenerative braking system, helping to charge the battery on the move."

[@Mas-lx5nc]

@@SliceTube mpg is a bit of a misleading metric when it comes to hybrids, I think manufacturers should really stop using ludicrously high mpg figures as a lot of buyers won’t truly understand what they are getting in to. mpg for the petrol engine only once the batteries are depleted would be useful to know. electricity still has to be paid for, so every journey whether with the engine, electric motor, or combination of both needs to be analysed. Perhaps a better figure for modern vehicles would be £ per mile rather than mpg?
