Hope that Mazda have collected enough data to overcome the software and suspension problems. Also believe that the gearbox will work smoothly with the diesel engine, compared to the PHEV. Today I visited my dealer for a short coffee break and he showed me one additional isolation rubber seal that is missing at the rear doors of CX-60 and is available at CX-5, which I definitely will put in place on my CX-60.
Hello,
I am glad that I see guys from Bulgaria on this forum.
I own a PHEV for over 2 months already and overall am quite satisfied with the car. It still has a few flaws like rattling suspension when going over bumps (even after having swapped to the new suspension) but I hope that Mazda will deal with this soon enough. I am doing mainly short daily trips (30-40km) and charge at home so the PHEV suits my lifestyle. I suspect that we may have the same dealer (Part city center dealership) because just a few days my dealer has mentioned to me about the same comparison between the CX-5 door isolation (mainly on closing the doors) to the CX-60 for being much better so I will have to look into this further with the service center.
I expect that the AWD 254hp D would be really great (had a Mazda 6 2.2 before without any flaws at all), was even considering going for that myself but I do not drive more than 15-20k/year so I finally settled on the PHEV which although a slightly new experience for me drive-wise, is proving to be a good choice (especially enjoying driving in EV mode round town).
Nevertheless it would be really interesting to hear you impressions on the 254hp D when you get it :)
 
Problems after 10000km:
Ive watched that video a few times with auto translate on. It dosent do a great job, so I can't get too much information from the video.

What did you take from the video?

I did capture these comments on the video comments section about the PHEV, similar to what we have been complaining about here..

'm having a lot of fun watching it. Everyone is kind... I support Hidepon's activities behind the scenes. Black organization, don't make your users hate you. It's only been about two weeks since I switched from Atenza to 60 (Jet Black), but it's impossible that the professionals didn't notice the problem that amateurs notice immediately after getting on it, and I can only think that the black organization was aware of it but turned a blind eye and decided to sell it. I think black organizations should recognize that if they don't take improvements seriously, users who buy 60 will never come back, which is such a serious problem. The introduction is long, but the black organization wants the following improvement!!! ・ The jerky feeling at low speed is really terrible. It's not a smooth hybrid. Improvement of cooperative control of engine, motor and transmission is required.  I wonder why you don't have motor assist at the beginning of running in the first place... ・ There is no response to the center of the handle, whether it is a toe angle, caster angle, or power steering seasoning, and the cut handle does not return naturally to the center, so it is difficult to run straight in a straight line. Am I the only one who feels bad about Naoyasu because of this? (I think there is also a problem with the design philosophy regarding this...) ・ A complete stop from coasting becomes a cuckun brake. If you stop while carefully loosening the brakes, the engine will start and jerk this time, so I want you to be able to stop smoothly. ・ When driving at a constant speed of around 10 km in a traffic jam, the engine noise? echoes quite a bit in the car, and the floor vibration is amazing. I would like you to take some measures such as motor assist or raising one gear. ・ When performing steering assist at high speed, if there are cars running side by side, it will move closer and closer to the right or left. ・When driving in the city or on roads with many cars, i-ACTIVSENSE sensor abnormalities (described as strong electromagnetic waves in the monitor information) frequently occur. Do you need to review the radar alarm threshold settings? ・Wireless charging is completely useless. It doesn't charge well, but the smartphone has a bonus that heats up a lot. Moreover, you should not connect your smartphone to USB. ・ Even if it is set to position light, if there is speed, the normal light will turn on. It may be a time limit, so I want you to allow position light even if there is speed. ・Too much noise. The transmission "bokot", the engine "brun", the undercarriage "squeak" and "rustling". Long sentence, excuse me ('◇')ゞ

Hi (Привет) :)
We do have the same dealer. :) I went to Sofia City Center showroom to see the CX-60 in Platinum Quartz color, because that’s the color I chose. Kiril is the guy! :) :) See you at the streets of Sofia soon.
 
A new review in Italian, you can use CC for auto-translation
..
Thanks for this, I can't believe how much the guy talks..I mean, he fitted in 100 words a minute for nearly half an hour 😅

Some serious miles per gallon figures coming out there, remarkable engineering from Mazda on that engine. He didn't really tell us much else though, so my search continues for some opinions over in car engine noise.
 
The first diesel in Poland. SCR system failed. Speed will be limited after 50km, and the car will be blocked after 1000km. View attachment 193
I haven't ordered yet, still waiting on test driving the Diesel Version, but this happened on my brand new Mercedes as well.

This is stuff i can deal with, because an obvious technical issue, like a sensor or something else that has failed, can be changed or repaired. What i can't deal is creaks, rattles, overall absolut shoddy build quality and whatever else fills that description. Which is everything my Mercedes had, PLUS a lot of technical issues. After more than 13 Years of being a loyal Mercedes Fan, I'm done and giving Mazda a chance.

The Italian Review gives me major hopes, that i won't even miss the Air Suspension my Mercedes has/had - which has become increasingly harsh over the years and models.
 
Amazing, thank you for posting!

Quieter than the PHEV ICE on tickover, and less strangled sounding on full chant.

Little noiser from the outside but that dosent bother me. Awesome.

Sounds a bit like a vw transporter that is worn out 😂

It sounds nothing like a Transporter. We have one of them on the driveway right now, other than the standard diesel characteristics that all diesel engines will have to a certain extent.

The actual sound on full chant is more like a big airplane engine. Sounds lovely. Think Spitfire.

This is one of those times someone makes a comment on something using an analogy they have no knowledge on and ends up look like a moron. Funny. 😅

Hope you get there safely, if airplane engine sounds like that 🤡

If you have a VW Transporter with a 6-Cylinder, i believe you ;) But i doubt you have a VW LT :p

In any case, it sounds leaps better than my 4-Cylinder Diesel in the Mercedes E300de...and even the PHEV felt incredibly solid in terms of build quality. While it does have it's "Kinderkrankheiten" (technical teething would be the translation, but it sounds...weird :D), they seem to be resolved, as more and more happy customers are flooding the German Forums. Except the somewhat "grumpy" Automatic (which i didn't really mind, because the 9G-Tronic in my Mercedes also has bad days and shifts shitty), i also didn't notice anything my E300de doesn't do. Steering stability above 160 km/h isn't that great, but it's manageable and let's be honest, while i do drive very fast for very long stretches, since this is a car for the world market, it won't be something Mazda will be addressing...with the general speed limit looming on german autobahns, i doubt we will be able to do that anyway for very long.

I have quite high hopes for the Diesel Version...sadly, my dealer won't get any 254 HP Diesel testers and only will get the RWD 200 HP Diesel as tester...but still.
 
Sounds

But there is not only phev system problems. Many people want to give the car back because of suspensions noise
