2025 Mazda CX-60 updates announced for Australia

Mazda Australia has confirmed updates for its new CX-60 SUV are set to go on sale in the first half of 2025. The five-seater medium SUV will receive a series of chassis and suspension enhancements, alongside the introduction of two new trim levels to broaden its appeal.

Under the skin, the CX-60 retains its double wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension system. However, the 2025 model benefits from softer rear springs, increased rear rebound damping, and firmer front compression damping. These changes aim to deliver a smoother ride and heightened comfort.

Handling is further refined through revised power steering, improved all-wheel-drive management, and upgraded stability systems, enhancing the CX-60’s overall driving feel and dynamics. Mazda Australia managing director Vinesh Bhindi said:

“The upgrades reflect our commitment to listening to customers. With enhanced performance and new model grades, the CX-60 continues to provide an engaging and refined driving experience while appealing to even more buyers.”

The updated range also introduces two new trim levels, expanding the CX-60 lineup to cater to a broader audience. A new entry-level Pure grade emphasises value without compromising on features, while the Touring grade slots above the existing Evolve model, aligning with the recently launched CX-80 lineup.

No major changes are made to the powertrain options, so buyers can continue to choose between a 209kW/450Nm turbo-petrol inline-six, a 187kW/550Nm turbo-diesel inline-six, and a 241kW plug-in hybrid four-cylinder.

The revised range will be available in Australian showrooms from the first half of 2025. Pricing details and full specifications will be announced closer to launch.
