Mazda's incoming CX-80 SUV cuts a fine figure in new renders from Japan, acting as a preview of sorts to the new and premium-focused SUV that is firming for an Australian launch.
Using the US-revealed CX-50 as a guide, designers at Japanese scoop site Spyder7 have created their own preview to Mazda's new three-row SUV that is, at least initially, expected to sit alongside the CX-8 as that model's more premium sibling.
And in even better news, unlike the CX-50, the CX-80 is under consideration for our market.
Watch out, Mercedes-Benz and BMW! Mazda goes all-in on premium aspirations with new CX-60, CX-70, CX-80 and CX-90 SUVs with rear-wheel drive
Better looking than a BMW? Mazda's most important new model in years, the 2022 CX-60, exposed ahead of official reveal and Australian arrival
Has Mazda Australia gone SUV mad? 2023 CX-60 - and possibly more rear-wheel-drive models - to add to CX-3, CX-30, MX-30, CX-5, CX-8 and CX-9
So what to expect?
While just a render at this point, if the image is any guide then we can expect a large SUV that manages to adopt Mazda's more modern design language, including its new streamlined grille and body contours.
According the Spyder7, the new CX-80 will ride on Mazda’s large vehicle architecture, and will be offered with a choice of 3.0-litre, six-cylinder petrol and diesel engines, both with the option of mild-hybrid tech to improve (though only slightly) fuel efficiency.
The three-row, seven-seat SUV is also expected to be bigger than the CX-8, and lean more heavily into Mazda's premium aspirations, too.
According to Japanese press, the CX-80 will launch domestically in 2023, with international markets to follow.
