CX-60 gets price cuts plus suspension modifications
MAZDA has slashed up to $10,560 from its CX-60 luxury SUV with the introduction of a new entry-level variant, as well as price cuts for existing grades.
The 2025 Mazda CX-60 will start from $50,240 before on-road costs in a new G40e Pure turbocharged inline-six petrol grade.
Prices have been cut between $7560 and $5560 across the rest of the CX-60 range to better line up with the seven-seat CX-80 sibling, which costs about $5000 more than an equivalent CX-60 across the board.
It follows price reductions on the flagship CX-90.
Mazda has also revised the CX-60’s suspension after customer and media criticism over its ride quality.
They include softer rear springs, firmer shock absorber settings – with increased rear rebound damping and front compression damping – and recalibrated stability systems “to improve overall handling and comfort balance”.
The 2025 CX-60’s eight-speed multi-clutch automatic transmission has been updated too, with “clutch control improvements” for a “smoother and more responsible” transition between the internal-combustion engine and electric motor and a wider gear range.
While its entry price is $10,560 less than before, the G40e Pure is $3000 cheaper with Mazda’s national drive-away offers. The G40e Pure is $53,990 on the road in Queensland compared to $56,990 for a 2024 G40e Evolve.
The CX-60 G40e Pure will be the only variant offered at a nationwide drive-away price at launch.
Current drive-away offers for the Evolve and GT end with the updated model.
Several features have been deleted from the CX-60 Pure compared to the Evolve – which continues with more standard equipment at $7560 less than before, including ‘Maztex’ synthetic leather and suede seat upholstery, with black cloth instead.
The Pure goes without the Evolve’s electric tailgate, 360-degree camera, wireless smartphone charger and padded dashboard and door panels.
In addition, Mazda has added the mid-spec Touring to the CX-60 line-up to replace the outgoing Evolve fitted with the $4000 luxury package, at $6560 less than before.
Mazda no longer offers any option packages for the Evolve, with the $2000 vision technology package now fitted as standard and the luxury package now included in the separate Touring grade.
