What is it?

The CX-80 is Mazda's flagship three-row SUV in Australia and the long-wheelbase sibling to the CX-60, stretched 250mm to add a usable third row in six- or seven-seat layouts. Three powertrains, all i-Activ AWD, with pricing from $54,950 to $81,490 plus on-roads.

The lineup runs from D50e Touring (Diesel) at $54,950 plus on-roads, through to P50e Azami (PHEV) at $81,490 plus on-roads. Warranty cover sits at 5 years, unlimited km.

Interior and Technology

Three powertrains (diesel six, petrol six, 241 kW PHEV), 2,500 kg braked towing across the range, and a longitudinal inline-six engineering layout that is rare in the segment, with 5-star ANCAP against the 2024 protocol.

P50e PHEV in Azami trim climbs past $80,000 plus on-roads, and the 8-speed clutch-based auto on six-cylinder grades takes time to learn.

Quick Buyer Context

Should you buy the CX-80?

Reasons to buy

  • Three powertrains (diesel six, petrol six, 241 kW PHEV), 2,500 kg braked towing across the range, and a longitudinal inline-six engineering layout that is rare in the segment, with 5-star ANCAP against the 2024 protocol.
  • Warranty: 5 years, unlimited km. PHEV battery: 8 years, 160,000 km.
  • 5-star ANCAP (2024), full driver-assist suite.
  • 258 L (all rows up) boot, segment-competitive cargo space.
  • Braked towing rated at 2,500 kg.

Reasons to wait

  • P50e PHEV in Azami trim climbs past $80,000 plus on-roads, and the 8-speed clutch-based auto on six-cylinder grades takes time to learn.
  • You want a longer warranty (Kia Sorento, Hyundai Santa Fe at 7 years), a wider-bodied three-row (Mazda CX-90), or a hybrid-only powertrain (Toyota Kluger).
  • Third row is small for full-time adult use, child seats more comfortable for longer journeys. The 5-year warranty trails Korean 7-year rivals like Sorento and Santa Fe.
  • Top trim climbs to $81,490 plus on-roads.
