Mazda never tops the sales charts, but damn if this Japanese automaker’s vehicles aren’t a pleasure to drive and far more upscale than they have any right to be. Expanding its utility vehicle lineup, on Tuesday, the Hiroshima-based company unveiled the new 2025 CX-70, an SUV that, like other Mazdas, emphasizes dynamics and design. Specifics […]

When it comes to EVs, Mazda is behind the curve. Sure, the zoom-zoom brand offers the MX-30, but this crossover’s cramped interior, lackluster performance and extremely limited range means it fits few drivers’ needs. Still, Mazda is working to introduce more electric vehicles in the coming years, and the company plans to build them in […]

The 2024 Mazda CX-90 is a three-row SUV that replaces the CX-9 in the Japanese automaker’s lineup. Far more than just a renamed refresh, this new utility vehicle emphasizes design and driving dynamics in a way none of its rivals do, plus it’s available with a plug-in hybrid powertrain, which is almost unheard of in […]

Just like the opening theme to “The Jeffersons” TV show from the 1970s and ‘80s, Mazda is movin’ on up. The Japanese automaker unveiled its new 2024 CX-90 SUV on Tuesday, a three-row flagship-caliber vehicle riding on a rear-wheel-biased platform and boasting of a new turbocharged inline-six under the hood. With smoothly contoured body panels, […]

It’s the moment rotary enthusiasts have been waiting for since the RX-8, but they’re likely very disappointed. Mazda has brought back its famed rotary engine, but it’s being used as a generator to charge a battery pack and extend the range of a plug-in hybrid. The technology is similar to what the BMW i3 and […]

Mazda has finally taken the wraps off its first vehicle on the new rear-drive-based architecture, the CX-60. Arriving in Europe later this year, the CX-60 is the first of four crossovers on the new large vehicle platform called the Skyactiv Scalable Architecture. It also previews the plug-in hybrid powertrain that’s coming to the CX-70 and […]

During the presentation before driving the 2022 Mazda MX-30 near the company’s headquarters in Irvine, California, we were told that the MX-30 is a proper Mazda. We were told to expect driving dynamics similar to the company’s other models — possibly even Miata — with this front-drive EV. And while it’s definitely not as fun […]

One more teaser of the Mazda CX-60 PHEV has been released. This time, we get a glimpse of the crossover’sinterior, which looks like an evolution of what you find in the CX-5 and the upcoming CX-50. As before, it doubles down on taking inspiration from Japanese culture and heritage. Mazda says that it used the […]

The first of Mazda’s so-called “Large Product Group” has been teased and it appears to be similar in size to the CX-5. The 2023 Mazda CX-60 will be the Japanese brand’s first plug-in hybrid and based on what the teaser shot has shown us, it’ll be a compact crossover. It’ll feature the next evolution of […]

Mazda has long been associated with the rotary engine. It was one of its distinguishing technologies when it first appeared on the Cosmo sports car. The engine eventually found its way to several vehicles including the legendary twin-turbocharged FD (fourth generation) RX-7. We last saw the rotary engine in the RX-8, which ended production in […]
