The Mazda EZ-60 is a mid-size crossover SUV to be produced by Mazda through their joint venture, Changan Mazda. The model will be available with a pure battery electric powertrain and as an extended-range electric vehicle.
Overview
[edit]
The EZ-60 name was confirmed via a teaser posted onto Mazda's Weibo account on March 31, 2025.[2]
The EZ-60 is one of two battery electric vehicles produced jointly by Mazda and Changan, with the other model being the EZ-6. The model uses the EPA1 platform which is also used by the EZ-6.
Design
[edit]The EZ-60 will use Mazda's current Kodo design language. The Mazda Arata Concept at the 2024 Beijing Auto Show previewed the EZ-60.[3]
Powertrain
[edit]The EZ-60 is expected to use the same powertrain as the Deepal S07, which means buyers will have the option to use a 175 kW (235 hp) electric motor for the EV and a 160 kW (215 hp) motor paired with a 1.5-liter JL473QJ engine serving as a generator. The electric motor is placed at the rear for both EV and EREV models.[4]
The EZ-60 is expected to also use the same batteries used in the Deepal S07.
International availability
[edit]The EZ-60 is expected to go on sale as the Mazda CX-6e in Europe.[5]
