The Mazda CX-80 is a mid-size crossover SUV with three-row seating produced by the Japanese automaker Mazda with production set to commence in 2024. Based on the shorter, five-seater CX-60, the CX-80 is the fourth vehicle to use Mazda's rear- and all-wheel drive with longitudinal engine layout categorized as Large Product Group, with same powertrains found in the CX-60 including a plug-in hybrid.[1]
The CX-80 will be marketed in Europe, Australia, and Asia, while North America receives the wider-body CX-90. It will be a flagship model in Europe and Japan, while in Australia and some Asian countries it is a smaller offering alongside the CX-90.[2] It will replace the CX-8 in markets where it has been discontinued.
The Mazda CX-80 was officially revealed on 18 April 2024, with pre-sales of the CX-80 set to commence in May 2024 and deliveries set to follow in the second half of the year.[3] [4]
The CX-80 shares the same front fascia from the CX-60. Other exterior differences compared to the CX-60 are stretched side windows with redesigned window mouldings, the addition of roof rails, and a redesigned rear bumper without the faux exhaust pieces which is hidden behind the bumper.[5]
The interior of the CX-80 is similar to the CX-60 and has the same features, such as the Driver Personalisation System. The driver's cockpit features the three main displays: a full TFT-LCD driver's instrument cluster, a window head-up display (HUD) and a 12.3-inch Mazda Connect centre display can be operated only through a "command control'' knob. Other features found in the CX-80 are Hybrid Navigation combines both offline and online navigation, Alexa Voice Control, rear door sunshades (a first for a Mazda in Europe), and a Trailer Hitch View (debuted in the CX-80) which uses the reversing camera to make it convenient to attach a trailer.
The CX-80 will have option between the 7-seater and 6-seater configurations. The 6-seater configuration version replaces the second-row bench seat with individual captain seats, with the option to have either an open walk-through space or a centre console between the seats.
The CX-80, designed for the Japanese market, offers three main powertrains. These include the e-SKYACTIV D 3.3-litre diesel, an e-SKYACTIV D 3.3-litre diesel mild hybrid (XD-Hybrid), and a 2.5-litre petrol plug-in hybrid (PHEV). Two-wheel drive is available for the base diesel model (XD), while other variants come with all-wheel drive. The trim lineup includes base, S Package, L Package, and Premium trims, with exclusive features like Nappa leather interiors and advanced infotainment systems available on higher-end models.[6]
The CX-80 was launched in New Zealand on 22 October 2024, with three variants: SP Hybrid, SP Plug-in Hybrid and Homura Plug-in Hybrid.[7]
The CX-80 was launched in Australia on 12 November 2024, with four trim levels: Pure, Touring, GT and Azami. It is available with three powertrains: e-SKYACTIV G 3.3-litre petrol mild hybrid (G40e), e-SKYACTIV D 3.3-litre diesel mild hybrid (D50e) and 2.5-litre petrol plug-in hybrid (P50e).[8]
