2023 Mazda CX-60 review: Hybrid turbodiesel variant tested | Top Gear Philippines
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Mazda has already established its offerings as more upmarket compared with mainstream Japanese models, but with the 2023 Mazda CX-60, the carmaker goes one step higher, setting its sights on premium brands like Lexus and BMW. It made a good impression on us when we first saw it just before its local launch, but now we’re finally able to drive it and see if it really delivers on its promise to provide both driver and passengers a luxurious experience.
For this video, we’re driving the top-spec 2023 Mazda CX-60 HEV Turbo-D Sport, which is powered by a 2.2-liter turbodiesel straight-six mild-hybrid powertrain and commands an asking price of P2,890,000. Click play on the video above for the full review, and let us know your thoughts in the comments.

I could not help but notice Leandra airing his gripes about interior space. As a medium bulit person 5'5" in height, for me the space inside the CX60 is generous enough for reasonable movement.

The host complains a lot.
Wow! I've been waiting for a test drive review of this! Good job TGP for having to do it first!!!
planning to get on december, i wonder what is the wading depth for this vehicle
Good review!
Nice color! Iba talaga pag Mazda! The car really looks upscale.
how is the transmission at lower speed? My cx8 is very jerky at low speed
Whoo. I wanted to know if there is a diesel hybrid available. Mazda won't disappoint.
Wow! I've been waiting for a test drive review of this! Good job TGP for having to do it first!!! 👏 I wonder if Mazda Philippines will also upgrade the CX-9 with the CX-90 as well.

Cx 90 is already spotted here in the Philippines. Official launch I think will be on December
As someone who carries 5 passengers most of the time, the complaint regarding the 2nd row is something I have to see myself. I have a hard time imagining an suv that size being too small and uncomfortable for 3 passengers. The CX-5 which is narrower I would understand.

The cargo space is too big. It should’ve been reduced to around 350-400 L to increase 2nd row space

Why not applicable with the no coding segment?
Hi - how is the transmission at low speeds? Some foreign reviews say it's jerky. Thanks!

I got my cx60 2024 model (3.3L e-skyactiv G version) last week here in Dubai UAE. So far I’m extremely happy with the car. The transmission is so smooth, absolutely nothing abnormal noted so far. The car is very comfortable and the engine noise is just amazing! Face recognition and safety e features (lane assistance and dynamic cruze control) are some of the high technology features in this car in my view. I’m wondering the issues listed here doesn’t apply to my model (ps: mine is the mild hybrid version).
Good review. But on the last point, is it really coding exempt given it's a mild hybrid? Does it meet the requirements under the law to qualify? The other Mazda mild hybrids are not exempt.

what would you recommend? The diesel variant or gas? I was wondering which variant is much better in the long run.
@kooob81

gas. Less noise more easy maintain
both variants are powerful but no doubt the Petrol model is faster. sadly they do not offer the 2.5 Turbo with 300+ horse power
Why not a normal petrol?
Love the brutally honest review pero wag niyo naman sana icompromise yung fun sa formality. Siya pa naman ang fave reviewer ko sa topgear ph. *Anyare sa sunroof? Di napakita ng maayos 😅 ** Para sakin, I find the interior space na masikip especially sa 2nd row
I think you can lessen the stiffness of the ride by reducing the tire psi, tire pressure is high when they load these cars on the ships for export

This is the same observation even in other countries even with the prescribed tire pressure. The CX-60 is inherently stiff. For that price, it should have better suspension. Perhaps Mazda can perfect it over the years. Let's revisit CX60 in 2026.
Damn mazda sobrang solid nitong CX-60. Premium na premium 😭😭😭
bought my mazda3 almost 5 years ago and O0 pa rin numbering nila 😂
Beautiful SUV
CX-60 is 👍👍👍
So matagtag siya?
pricy? are u kidding? bruh! in line 6.. AWD system and mild hybrid, and with all the tech and safety system... in less than 3M.. IMO.. that's w/o a doubt a good deal...
the CX-60 price in Indonesia is around 4,44m php which is hugely overpriced compared to the Philippines' price, meanwhile the CX-5 here (2.5 NA) is 2,27m php and no turbo variant available. Philippines car market is way better! Already test drive this and noticed that the CX-60 ride is quite bad on low speed on bumpy road, and somewhat hurt the premium feel considering the price. The interior is fantastic though, definitely on par with the German luxury.
No cx- 90? In the Philippines?

It is. For newer mild hybrids released this year, look at the fuel type in your OR/CR. If it says hybrid, which it does in mine, it's exempted. The DoE list is incomplete. The basis for judgement is your OR/CR. Source: I own a MHEV Mazda.

@@dudeparebro lol so you're more superior than the DoE list because you have a mild hybrid? Come on. Not a single mild hybrid (new or old) is on the list and there's a reason for that. Unless our govt release an official statement or a newer list, mild hybrids are simply not exempted.
Thumbnail is fake news. Its not a HEV but a MHEV.
Gud Day sir, will you pls comment on this, it was written by someone on another thread, "The only main disadvantage of owning these Mazda Skyactiv cars is the iStop feature. It's a feature that many Pinoys won't really have any practical use. This feature requires a very expensive special battery (EFB) which cost around ₱15,000 if you go for the casa brand (Yuasa). Don't use the ordinary motolite or amaron battery otherwise you'll risk on damaging the eloop capacitor which will cost at least ₱100,000 for a replacement. Some Mazda 3 BM (2013-2016) owners have complained about this istop/capacitor issues in recent years." Is this true? , wow if it is , am now discouraged to buy a CX 60..hehehe

Skyactiv tech diff, imagine it's already a diesel engine and still uses the skyactiv, this engine probably has a high compression ratio, that it uses small amounts of fuel to run.

The mild hybrid system actually works better in traffic than on the highway. It only helps when coasting down on the highway. In the city, it allows the engine to turn off in stop and go traffic and provides some assist in low speed acceleration.

It depends on where the ISG is installed, but most mild hybrids only utilize the 24-48v battery to smoothen out the start-stop function.
