Mazda’s take on the BMW X5 has landed in Australia.
Dubbed the CX-70 the full-sized five-seat SUV joins its seven-seat twin, the CX-90, and the smaller five-seat CX-60 in the brand’s expanding line-up. A seven-seat version of the CX-60 - called the CX-80 - will also arrive this year.
Prices for the luxurious five-seater start at $75,970, before on-road costs, and rise to $84,970.

Mazda CX-80 2025 review
It follows the same formula as the CX-60, CX-90 and coming CX-80 and is equipped with the choice of a 3.3-litre inline six-cylinder turbo-petrol or diesel engine, both with mild hybrid assistance.
The petrol engine makes 254kW and 500Nm and the diesel engine produces 187kW and 550Nm. Both are matched to an eight-speed automatic transmission and a rear-wheel drive biased all-wheel drive set-up.
It is available in just two grades: GT and Azami.

GT buyers can expect 21-inch alloy wheels, adaptive LED headlights and a panoramic sunroof.
Inside there is a 12.3-inch multimedia screen and a digital display of the same size.
Wireless Apple CarPlay is paired with wired Android Auto and a 12-speaker Bose stereo brings the tunes.

Power adjustable leather front seats are heated, as are the rear seats and the leather-bound steering wheel.
Step up to the Azami grade and you gain supple black or burgundy Nappa leather upholstery, ventilated front seats, exterior tweaks, interior ambient lighting and a bird’s view camera with a see-through view.
Azami variants can be upgraded with an optional $3500 SP Pack, which includes tan Nappa leather seat trim, synthetic suede on the dash and a two-tone steering wheel.
