2022 Mazda CX-60 reveal date set

UPDATE, February 22: The 2022 Mazda CX-60 will be revealed to the world on March 8, the company has said.

According to a statement released overnight, the CX-60 introduces for the first time the ideas of ‘Kaichô’ – the harmony which comes from mixing different materials and textures.

These include; maple wood, Nappa leather, Japanese textiles, chrome details, and Musubu – the uniquely Japanese way of binding textiles, which was the inspiration for the instrument panel stitching.

Mazda says the all-new Mazda CX-60, which is confirmed for Australia, will be a totally new experience for drivers and passengers.

December 8: The 2022 Mazda CX-60 will be unveiled early in the new year, according to a company official.

A representative from Mazda UK confirmed the reveal date when responding to a customer on Twitter, according to Japanese publication Creative311 – however it appears the post has since been deleted.

With the CX-60 confirmed for a local launch, Wheels has contacted Mazda Australia regarding the leaked timing information, and this story will be updated with its response.

November 17: The 2022 Mazda CX-60 has been spied without camouflage before its official unveiling.

The CX-60 has been confirmed for an Australian debut by Mazda – the only model locked in from the company’s revised line-up, announced in October.

The five-seater CX-60 was caught on video by Japanese YouTube channel CSK Review, while the model was being professionally filmed, suggesting the SUV is just months away from its reveal.

Though details have yet to be announced, we know the CX-60 will be powered by a range of petrol and diesel six-cylinder engines shared with the upcoming 2023 Mazda 6.

Following Mazda’s ‘Kodo’ design language, the CX-60 echoes the core styling found on the more rugged CX-50 revealed earlier this week, but notably with the addition of a new embellishment on the front quarter panel.

While the white model appears to be a range-topping variant, a second red vehicle can be seen with black exterior highlights – likely to be badged as the Mazda CX-60 GT SP when it lands in Australia.

The CX-60 is part of Mazda’s new international ‘Large Product’ portfolio, which includes the CX-70, CX-80, and CX-90 SUVs – the latter two of which will offer three rows of seating – but the CX-60 is so far the only vehicle confirmed for the Australian market.
