Mazda CX-60 looks so good from every angle. If I was in the market for this kind of car, the CX-60 would definitely be my pick.

I think you are spot on regarding the Mazda; a little to stiff, a little jerky transmission, and vonderfull interior! I have driven mine 30000km for nearly a year and I love it, average fuel consumption is 2,7L/100km. In Sweden there is a waranty of 10 years or 150000km that Volvo or the germans cannot match, so easy pick for me!

I have two Mazda one 2023CX5 GT and one cx30 GS in Canada, I also test drove X3 as well. Here is my comment and experience. Performance and mechanical wise BMW is far ahead. But in terms of what you pay and what you get Mazda is winner. Mazda has amazing build quality, to me more attractive cabin and dashboard, Best handling in its class. Low cost maintenance also great exterior design. Onething that makes all BMWs well ahead in terms of performance is the 8 speed ZF trans. This thing makes these bad boys well ahead.

@@scorpioM56You need to consider that the Mazda CX60 Phev in top Azumi trim is 91K drive away with no options. Or 78k lowest spec drive away. BMW equivalent in this test is 120k drive away before options that’s 30k difference or 42K respectively 😳 If you want a 6 cylinder the CX60 in top spec no options 79k X3 is 140k no options 61K difference😳😳😳 You need to really ask is the X3 30k,40k or 60k better? The notion that it’s expensive for a Mazda is a mute point when you consider the price of all new cars these days and the Germans especially know how to take people for a ride.

I watched this review with especial interest because it more or less repeats a trade off I made earlier this year. I found the review a great detailed comparison. In my case I chose the Mazda CX60 PHEV because the BMW did not appear to me to offer €17k worth of extra premium. The BMW is clearly the better car as Thomas rightly concludes but not €17k better. So at what price point premium would I choose the BMW. At a €5k premium the BMW would be a no brainer, but where between €5k and €10k would tip the balance? At over €10k the Mazda is the clear winner for my circumstances, especially as I am able to make heavy use of its somewhat better EV range and charge at home (with PV renewables). What this comparison does help us do is ask what premium characteristics are enough and at what price? I think this will set a natural upper limit on how far premium brands can continue to move upmarket without regard to price in pursuit of profit. Before long they are going to have to return to doing more with less, if only because Asia led by China is coming if not already here. A final point is that if the comparison had been made with the comparable Mercedes instead of the BMW, the Mercedes would have lost even at zero price premium based on its completely unworkable interior UI/UX experience.

very interesting. I'd question though about the cost savings to you of the free power u do get w/ your home energy set up, which is very sweet ,but i wonder how much savings that really would be in the differential between the two cars (such a thin one).

@PaulMeier-cu3ds

8 ай бұрын

@@18_rabbit To be absolutely clear, the savings would be a lot less without our home renewables where the marginal cost of a fill up is zero. Breakeven with diesel in the UK at the moment occurs when electricity is about £0.70kwh. Our peak rate at home from the grid is £0.34 and our off peak rate is £0.19, so there are savings to be had with electricity from the grid. However when you have to charge using the public charging network typical charges can be between £0.50 and £1.00, in which case savings become marginal and the nuisance of having to find a charger and then wait around for charging become more pronounced. I would not have a PHEV let alone a full EV if I had to rely on public charging at the moment, given the higher capital costs of any sort of EV.

Thanks keep tuning in! 😎

Both cars are great. The battery is noticeable bigger in the Mazda and 55 to 65 km can be achieved specially if the car is not totally new. I have complained to the dealer about the road noise and the suspension being on the stiff side. They replaced the 4 shock absorbers added insulation to the doors and made a bunch of software updates. It runs smoother, it became more silent. The transmission still does some strange things on low speed but very rarely. Seems that Mazda is trying hard to perfect their CX-60.

Hi Thomas, good review again! I actually had to make this decision. After 4 years of BMW 330e (buying it after watching your review back then!) and 30 years of VW/Audi/BMW, I now for the first time decided to buy the Mazda. I ordered the CX60. PHEV works for me and the Mazda has a bit more battery capacity, allowing me the do my daily work run completly electric. My max budget is about 62-63k Euro. X3 in the Netherlands would be 85k+ in not even the same trim. So, I could only consider the X1 (we want to move to SUV), but the X1 PHEV is not the drivetrain from my 330e, but it is a 3 cilinder petrol, and that is not acceptable for me for a 60k+ vehicle! Also BMW took the 'druck-dreh-schalter' out of the X1 which I hate. I loved it in the recent two bmw 3's and the two A4's I drove. The Mazda still has that, and also more phycical buttons then the X1 to. This, combined with the larger boot, the 17kW battery and 50 liter fuel tank plus the premium feel I got, made me make the step. To be clear; I fully understand the differences you point out and I am willing to pay a bit more for that (always have done), but this difference is just to big. I also agree that having some sportseats on the pricelist of the Mazda would have been better (I saw you had the sports-seats in the M equiped X3 and I also enjoy those in my BMW 🙂). So, I am am curious how it will work out! In 3-4 years I will have driven 200k with the Mazda, let's see (will be delivered in September). Keep on doing the good work, you do very top reviews. Best regards, from Holland. Gerrit

Good report - I'm also looking for something to replace my 330e M Sport Touring and the CX-60 is top of the list. I prefer estate/touring cars to be honest, but SUV's seem to be so popular in the UK that estate cars are going out of fashion. The CX-60 is cheaper for company car tax since it has a longer electric range which is a HUGE bonus for anyone having a car through their company in the UK.

I have owned both BMW and Mazda cars. When it comes to driving, Mazda easily does better than most other brands, but BMW is still way more refined. CX-60 is a great alternative to X3.

Wow Thomas, You are a prefectionist. Your attention to little details like Window's opening sound..surprising me, also the narrow leg room in the second row always be a homework for Mazda's SUV line ups. For those, I agree with you. But in interior, we must admit Mazda done a very great job, making the X3 interior looks so ordinary. Another thing, when you accelerate full thorttle, The mazda engine's sound more hoarsely than X3. I think both cars are great. BMW luxury image still no compromise, but if you look for another perpectives like less expensive luxury and a driver oriented car, good performance, also more efficient gasoline, I think Mazda CX-60 is worthy. I like BMW, but their Double Kidney Grill is getting bigger along the time give a weirdo look and their interior design not change much in a couple of decades. I think they can make their interior look better than this. But anyway, thank you for your honest and elegent review.

Maybe the stiffness adds to the handling in some way. I'm picking up mine in 2 weeks here in Melbourne. Mine will hardly see a shit road unless I'm out in the country which is less than twice a year. I'm willing to put up with a slightly stiff set up for more a confident drive. That said for $75k AUD Mazda should have added some adaptive damping. No idea why they didn't. Maybe the Japanese know why they engineered it this way. I don't think they spent time in Australia with it to tune the set up to our roads. It's a sick car for the money and a better proposition than a very basic X3 with a gutless 4 cylinder Turbo.

I would like to see the comparison with the Inline 6 Skyactiv X Engine 3L when it comes out next year. It might completely shift into Mazda's favour considering the less weight and a better linear acceleration/stopping - Hearing that they started replacing shocks for all CX-60 owners for free and putting these new shocks on the New CX-60 models. Would be nice to a updated video of the comparison by next year spring. For their 1st year CX-60 model - Pretty decent from Mazda - Hope to maybe get CX-60/CX-80 4 years down the line when Mazda polishes up their new SUV line up as Mazda price/performance/quality nothing beats it

That's funny... The Distraction Alert! Love that feature.

The window opening sound is also present on the CX-30. Same for the door closing sound. Apparently they didn't fix that in the CX-60.

Quality Finishes. Solid drive . Outstanding Value for your money. ..... I live in NRW, Germany and Im surprised to see how popular this Brand is here

The door closing issue has been resolved, all dealers have a directive when questioned from Mazda to fix the problem with added sound deadening, and has been sorted at the factory...big win, just love opening and closing my doors now....as it was a problem..rest of the car fab, for most drivers and owners the problems are minimal and driving is a pleasure.

Yes I'm looking out for as many details as you notice as possible!

Thanks for the review . I have had my Mazda cx 60 Gt model plug in for two weeks great car to drive and beautiful finish even with the luxury tax with apples to cars over $70000 in Australia I think it is value for money

Taking into account the lower cost of maintenance, and resale value of the car the Mazda becomes a very tempting option. BMW on the other hand will have a steeper depreciation in the resale value comparatively. However, the badge of a BMW or any luxury manufacturer is something that many buyers would be hard to let go.

how do they compare to the genesis gv70? I believe you said in a previous review that the gv 70 competes with the macan

It depends on what range you want and expect. Here in Sweden there is a lot of xc60s with the hybrid drive. There have been reports of a few problems with the charging in the winter and the ride being harder due to the extra weight of the battery compared to the regular xc60. But if you live in Sweden Volvos hold their value incredibly well. Mazda in terms of reliability is better most often then not. I have tested the cx60 and it’s more comfortable but the seats in the Volvo is clearly better. You should test both.

My suggestion would be to add a little more info in videos about the comfort of the middle rear seat. For a family of 5 this is a very important topic that most reviews don’t cover. Thanks!

excellent honest review. Mazda has come from a long way, just some rough edges wich needs some time to improve. extra points for the nice legs! 😊

Cheers 😎

I just loved how the car told Thomas off for looking at his female passenger.

Mazda has been kicking goals since the 1990s, albeit it with a brief financial hiccup requiring a back-to-basics model lineup, but they have one thing that BMW will never achieve: reliability. 😂

Bmw has been scoring high in reliability report recently. Seems they are working on shedding that unreliable image. If they continue this , in a few years their resale value will catch up. So can we say that the 2022 and 2023 bmw is bargain then?

@@autogefuehl I think MB is struggling with its planned transition to EVs. BMW is viewing BEV as just another power source (right choice and not comprising the essence of its cars) whereas Benz is trying to transition to new platforms (more expensive and threatens to dilute its brand heritage). bMW learned a lot with its i3/i8.

Hello, can you make a short comparision Mazda CX-60 187 kw versus Volvo XC-60 B5 173 kw? I think that it is a direct competitor and the price 1-year-old Volvo (Volvo select) is the same price as how new Mazda. The power is very similar and the acceleration too... I think that it could be very interesting. Thanks for your work sg

If the lack of bolstering on the CX-60 is a problem, don't get a CX-5, as the seats have zero side bolsters. The CX-9 and CX-90 are much better in that regard.

Thanks for showing the comparison. Indeed I own the x3 Plug in and enjoy its riding as per said. Just wonder what watch brand u are wearing? So cool..

thanks for the review, both have pros and cons, now i'm thinking of fiat panda.

Mazda blinker sound is kinda harsh and loud. Or is that only on video?

As an Australian, an easy decision for me. Here, Mazda has a better reputation for reliability than BMW and Mazda service costs are far less expensive. And the Mazda dealer/service network is wider. So with all that in mind plus the much cheaper initial purchase price I would take the Mazda without even bothering to test the BMW, despite the claimed minor superiority of the latter in some aspects.

Mazda is now the underdog both BMW and Audi were not so long ago . Building reliable, extremely well handling yet affordable vehicles . It seems though Toyota wants Mazda to target Audi first and foremost( we actually have Q5 and CX5, Mazda is way more fun ) thus comparison to BMW is even more impressive

Toyotas has nothing to do what mazda decisions and they way it drives. Please and you have been listening to the wrong people concerning Mazda. Toyota is using the Mazda 2 as the Yaris. Your point?

Toyota has a 5% stake in Mazda. The figure heads are absolutely working together to move their brands forward. Mazda is a niche maker, Toyota is a mass maker. So they don’t actually compete directly on consumers, maybe price and value.

Thomas looking sharp! Any news as to when the petrol Mazda is coming?

is it ok to compare CX-60 to VW Tiguan? Especially 2024 Tiguan

Such a good review thank you. I would love these to be based on cars of the same value. I can't see anyone that has the larger amount of money even test driving the Mazda. But a BMW fan with X1 money who actually needs a larger car might, or a least, would have to consider the mAzda.

Cheers keep tuning in!

I will probably take CX-60 3.3 diesel which is, as you said in previous tests, lighter almost 200 kg and handles better than plug-in hybrid. BMW is p better in some things, like door closing sound and especially seat side support, but for 17.000-20.000 euros you can buy another new car. Also, inline 6 is way better than BMWs 4 cylinder 2.0 diesel, in sound perspective, performance and they are comparable in fuel consumption which is realy interesting. I am writing this as I am in process of getting new vehicle and these two are in the top of my list, so I did test drive of both cars. The biggest difference is in the seat side support. I just don't know why Mazda did such "flat seat". Maybe @autogefuehl could ask some Mazda engineers about that at some presentation. I would love to here the answer...

those seats in the Mazda are ridiculously bad, just only for that could never buy that car. Also sound isolation is very bad.

CX90 has been tested by the IIHS and is a top safety pick plus by the way!

Give me the Mazda please!!

I had 2 cx 5 GT top trim and the seats although hugging were hard on seat over long journeys. Same journeys in my Cx 60 phev and the seats are top class for comfort. No issues with comfort.

I am a BMW fan. That said, with this comparison, I am truly impressed by the Mazda very attractive interior, exterior and price. That is truly value for money.

I love Autogefühl…I have a 7 month old X3 M40i and the only car that could change my mind would be a VW Touareg R, which I can’t get in California.

Also different class. Touareg is bigger, its the size of the X5.

i'm currently have to make decision between this 3 similar cars. CX-60, GLC 300 and X3. here in Indonesia we only have the 3.3 petrol turbocharged. really need survey or vote which one best to choose?

Better looking than the BMW and better spec at a lower price.

BMW is nice but if I was to pick one of these I'd take the CX-60. It really appeals on a lot of different levels.

you forgot to mention the cost of ownership difference like the differences in servicing cost, length of warranty. I suspect the difference in cost will increase substantially.

The only huge disadvantage what Mazda has is the Infotainment System, still laggy, updates are making the system either better or even worser, next to Fords one of the worst out there.

So, we've got this epic face-off between the two cars, like a gladiator match in the automotive arena. But when it comes to the little things - the door closing symphony and the noise chorus - it's like debating whether you prefer a jazz band or a rock concert in your trunk. And oh boy, that 20k price gap? That's the Grand Canyon of car budgeting! Picture yourself standing at the edge, shouting, "Show me the savings!" 🏞️💸 Now, when it comes to comfort, the BMW might as well have been designed by a grumpy medieval knight - heavy, cranky, and the infotainment system is like a puzzle from a haunted castle. Meanwhile, the Mazda's seats? They're like clouds on wheels, perfect for kings and queens embarking on their long-haul odyssey. For me of course 😊. Why I'm saying these things? Is because I have my own love story with my CX5 and a hate story with a particular Series 5! Mazda is like a romantic comedy starring you and your trusty steed, ready for adventure and happily ever afters! 🎬🚘😄
