MAZDA CX-60 PHEV What is it? Mazda’s first plug-in hybrid When is it available? Late 2022 Biggest changes? Everything – it’s all-new! Fleet appeal? PHEV tech in Mazda’s most powerful road car
Plug-in and play Mazda’s first foray into the PHEV playground comes as a SUV with 322hp and 500Nm. That power comes from a combination of Mazda’s 2.5-litre petrol engine, a 100kW electric motor and a 17.8kWh battery. As a result, the new CX-60 will be the most powerful Mazda to hit the road. The hybrid setup enables up to 39 miles of combined cycle EV miles and up to 42 miles when in the city. Performance? Zero to 62mph is dispatched in under six seconds.

In other words, there is plenty of quality materials, especially when you move up the range.
