Mazda EZ-60: new electric crossover starts in China from $16,800
The Japanese brand has officially unveiled the EZ-60 crossover developed as part of its electrification strategy. In international markets, the model will be sold from 2026 under the name Mazda CX-6e.
Here's What We Know
In China, the EZ-60 is available in six trim levels with prices ranging from 119,900 yuan ($16,800) to 160,900 yuan ($22,600). The crossover is built on Changan's EPA platform and is available in two versions: all-electric and as a series hybrid, in which the petrol engine performs only the role of a generator.
The exterior reflects Mazda's design philosophy with adaptation for electric vehicles and the specifics of the Chinese market. The front features an imitation grille with illuminated logo, split headlights and narrow running lights. Hidden door handles, electronic mirrors and aerodynamic channels in the pillars and bumper emphasise the model's technology.
Dimensions: length 4850 mm, width 1935 mm, height 1620 mm, wheelbase 2902 mm. For the base configuration 19-inch discs are provided, in the top versions 21-inch discs are available. There is a choice of seven body colours.
The interior is designed in an enveloping style with a technological bias. A 26.45-inch 5K display is mounted on the front panel. The standard AR projector is 50 inches, with an optional 100-inch 3D-HUD available.
