BRUSSELS: The new Mazda CX-6e mid-sized SUV (sport utility vehicle) is powered by a 78kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, and a WLTP range of up to 484km.
It delivers 190kW (258PS) and 290Nm of instant torque to the rear wheels.
Inside, a 26-inch touchscreen, multilingual voice recognition, and a suite of intelligent safety features ensure an engaging driving experience.
Driving the rear axle through a single-speed transmission, it accelerates from standstill to 100kph in 7.9 seconds and onto a 185kph top speed.
A maximum DC charging rate of 195kW results in a 10-80% charge time of 24 minutes.
The onboard charger supports 11kW three-phase AC charging via Type 2 connectors for home charging.
The smart cockpit centres on a sweeping 26-inch touchscreen with a customisable dual-split layout.
This screen is complemented by a large head-up display that overlays navigation guidance onto the road ahead, while gesture control lets you quickly select pre-saved routes or play your favourite music without touching a button.
Multilingual voice recognition, available in nine languages, responds to everyday requests – whether that’s adjusting the temperature, opening the windows, or finding your next destination.
Next to Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto, the CX-6e has its own dedicated app, with many remote-control functions including Bluetooth key sharing and battery charge management.
Every model features nine airbags and a network of high-definition cameras, millimetre-wave radar and ultrasonic sensors.
A full suite of driver assistance systems, including Smart Brake Support, Lane Keeping Assist and Blind Spot Monitoring, ensures confidence on every journey.
The CX-6e elevates the Kodo - Soul of Motion design language into the future of electric mobility.
Its extended 2,902mm wheelbase and short overhangs disguise its versatile load-carrying capabilities, with the 468-litre luggage bay expanding to 1,434 litres with the second row of seats folded flat.
A palette of seven exterior colours is available, headlined by the Nightfall Violet hero colour - a deep and glossy tone that shifts between a lustrous purple glow and near-black shadows depending on the light.
The CX-6e will be available from summer 2026 across Europe.
