Mazda EZ-60: First details about electric SUV revealed
The first technical details about the electric version of the Mazda EZ-60 — expected to be called CX-6e in Europe and other export markets — have been revealed in China. Details submitted by Mazda to China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) as part of the car's certification process have published by Car News China. Unveiled at the Shanghai motor show at the end of April, the EZ-60 will go on sale in China later this year. It could be a breakout hit for the brand as it has already garnered 20,000 refundable deposits. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now.

The EZ-60 will be available as a pure electric vehicle (EV) with a 190kW motor driving the rear wheels, and a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery of unknown capacity. The same 190kW electric motor is used in the EREV version, and it is solely responsible for driving the wheels. Under the bonnet there's a 72kW 1.5-litre petrol engine that recharges the battery when it runs low, or at the driver's behest. A smaller 31.73kWh LFP battery is used in this model, and is said to have a 160km electric-only driving range under the generous CLTC testing standard. The EZ-60 is 4850mm long, 1935mm wide, 1620mm tall, and rides on a 2902mm wheelbase. This means it sits somewhere between the 4.74m CX-60 and 5.0m CX-80 in terms of length, and is 45mm wider than both. Boot space is rated at 350 litres with the rear seats, and grows to 2036L when they're folded down. The EZ-60 EV also has a 126L storage area under the bonnet — a "frunk" if you will, or maybe a "froot" for us. On the inside there's a huge 26.45-inch 5K display serving as the infotainment touchscreen, as well as a display for the front passenger. Interestingly there's a head up display in place of a more traditional instrumentation screen. Co-developed with state-owned automaker Changan, the EZ-60 will be built at their joint venture factory. The EZ-60 rides on Changan's EPA1 architecture, which underpins various models from Changan and Deepal, including the S07 SUV that went on sale in Australia at the end of 2024. The same architecture is also used in the Mazda EZ-6 sedan, which will be sold in Europe as the Mazda 6e and is an electrified, rear-wheel drive successor to the departed 6. The 6e has been confirmed for sale in the UK, a right-hand drive market like Australia. There's no word yet if the EZ-60 will be sold on the Continent and the UK, but reports indicate it will happen and the car will be rebadged as the CX-6e. Neither the 6e/EZ-6 or the EZ-60/CX-6e have been confirmed for Australia. The last electric vehicle sold in Australia by Mazda was the quirky MX-30 SUV, which featured reverse-hinged rear doors and cork interior trim.

Mazda CX-6e SUV is rear-drive hybrid or EV
The EZ-60 SUV from Mazda debuted at the Shanghai show. A rakish mid-size SUV, it will be available with a choice of plug-in hybrid or pure-electric power. That gives it an advantage over the likes of Tesla Model Y, Audi Q4 e-tron and Skoda Enyaq. Likely as not it will be CX-6e outside of China, with naming similar to the 6e sedan with which it shares many mechanicals. The EZ-60 is a Mazda-Changan joint venture project, like the 6e. The look is aggressive, low and wide, with large wheels and a small glasshouse. Its Mazda-typical grille features a 3D lighting surround. The grille has a small vent that funnels air into a wing in the bonnet, aiding aero. Thin daytime running lights are set up high, with the main lighting coming from below. There are drag-reducing cameras instead of mirrors, and a hollow rear pillar that also improves airflow. At the back is a raked screen and there are two aero devices beside the screen's glass edge. A Mazda logo replaces the usual winged badge. The EX-60 is a five seater that measures 4850mm long with a wheelbase of 2902mm. It is 1935mm wide and 1620mm tall so is bigger than Mazda CX-5 and Mazda CX-60 SUVs. Inside is a huge 26.45-inch 5K screen while all the key driver information comes via a 3D head-up display. The dashboard is a button-free zone but the 'smart cabin' can be operated by voice, touch or gesture. A 23-speaker 3D sound system has headrest speakers so front seat occupants can listen to different music. The electric EZ-60 has a range of almost 600km per charge, while the PHEV can manage 1000km, though these are not WLTP figures. Read our Mazda CX-6e preview here. Weight balance is evidently 50:50 for the PHEV, 47:53 for the EV. All independent suspension (Mac strut front, multilink rear) features adaptive dampers. Likely as not the EZ-60 employs the 6e's EPA1 platform. Pricing should undercut that of the Tesla Model Y, at least in the UK. Other technical aspects, like battery size and PHEV components are unknown. It is unclear whether CX-6e is coming here but given Mazda says it will be a global vehicle, like the 6e saloon, both are distinct possibilities.
