The CX-60 Evolve is the mid-spec version of the longitudinal-engined, rear-drive-biased Mazda all-wheel-drive SUV, which is a bit larger than other most mainstream mid-sized SUVs.
Like all MY25 models, this has been improved with extensive suspension and transmission calibration work to make the vehicle both more comfortable and smoother to drive.
Starting off from $55,240 before on-road costs, it builds on the base Pure’s keyless entry/start, 360-degree view camera, parking sensors, dual-zone climate control, head-up display, satellite navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, DAB+ digital radio, tyre-pressure monitors, traffic sign recognition tech, folding/heated exterior mirrors and 18-inch alloy wheels with a larger touchscreen (12.3-inches), ground-view monitor, artificial leather trim, a wireless charger, a powered tailgate and more safety like front-cross traffic alert and a driver monitor.
Speaking of which, the CX-60 Evolve scores a five-star ANCAP crash-test rating. To that end, it boasts Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), blind-spot monitoring, vehicle exit warning, lane-departure, lane-assist and lane-keep tech, front cross-traffic alert, forward obstruction warning, rear cross-traffic alert, turn-across traffic alert, Cruising/Traffic Support (that assists drivers in slow-moving traffic with automatic accelerator, brake and steering control to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead), adaptive cruise-control, LED headlights with auto high beams, a see-through view front camera, driver attention alert, eight airbags, a trio of child-seat restraining top-tether points and two ISOFIX latches in the back row.
A trio of powertrain choices are available, with the G40e’s 3.3-litre in-line six-cylinder (I6) turbocharged petrol engine making 209kW of power and 450Nm of torque. It averages 7.4L/100km on the combined cycle, for 174g/km of carbon-dioxide emissions.
The 3.3L I6 turbo-diesel, known as the D50e, is a $2000 option; it delivers 187kW and 550Nm, and uses 5.0L/100km on average for 132g/km.
Lastly, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) version is available, but it will set buyers back at least $11,000 more. Called the P50e PHEV, it features a 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, a 129kW electric motor and a 17.8kWh Lithium ion battery, making 241kW and 500Nm. Result? A combined average of 2.1L/100km, for a CO2 figure of 49g/km, for up to 2380km between refills and 76km of battery range.
All four wheels are driven by an eight-speed, wet-plate-clutch automatic transmission.
