Mazda refreshes SUV lineup and expands electric offerings

Overview

Mazda is implementing a comprehensive update strategy for its SUV lineup following sales that fell short of expectations. The company reported selling 150,637 units of its Large Architecture-based models in fiscal year 2025, missing a 200,000-unit target. CEO Masahiro Moro announced that these updates will be “unprecedented in scale,” involving significant changes to exterior design, interior technology, and powertrains.

Expanding its electric footprint, Mazda has launched the CX-6e (also known as the EZ-60 in China) through a partnership with Changan. In Thailand, the CX-6e is available in Premium and Premium Sport versions, with prices starting at approximately 1.259 million baht. The vehicle features a 78 kWh LFP battery and includes an 8-year or 160,000 km warranty. Mazda has also released the CX-6e in Europe, utilizing Changan technology but with a chassis and steering adapted for European driving preferences.

In Mexico, the 2027 CX-5 has been introduced with three trim levels: i Sport, i Grand Touring, and Signature. It features an evolved KODO design, increased passenger and luggage space, and a 15.6-inch touchscreen, while retaining a 2.5-liter gasoline engine. Meanwhile, Mazda is offering significant discounts on the CX-60 in Europe, with reductions exceeding 18,300 euros on the Prime-Line trim.

Regarding its lineup restructuring, Mazda confirmed it will phase out the Mazda 2 supermini, replacing it with a next-generation CX-3 subcompact crossover. Planned for 2027 in Japan and ASEAN markets, the CX-3 will be manufactured in Thailand and is expected to feature a mild-hybrid powertrain.

In North America, Mazda is integrating the CX-70 into the CX-90 series for the 2027 model year. The CX-70 will be discontinued in the U.S. but remain in Canada and Australia.
