No - that's not what i meant with drivers car. A drivers car to me is a car, that you like to drive manually, where you are engaged in driving it and it makes you feel connected to the car itself. It doesn't have anything to do with driving faster.

Ah ok, gotchya

260 km later and i have to say, this is much more a BMW X3 competitor than anything else. For those interested, 225 km/h on the German Autobahn is possible without much "strain", it goes a lot better, than one would expect from a 200 PS, 1,9t SUV. And it sits very comfortable at high speeds, something i absolutely did not expect from Mazda. Brakes are good, even multiple hard braking attempts from over 200 km/h are no safety issue - they are starting to "judder"...but that's pretty normal.

Overall i like it - yes, the Gearbox has had some "pause for thoughts" occasionally while rolling to a traffic light, but i don't mind it. You hear a lot of noises, one maybe does not expect, there is even a faint Turbo flutter ("stututu") and many different sounds around boost pressure. Shifting 5-6 at ~ 2000 RPM produces a faint "snarl" that apparently has to do with switching between low and high pressure mode (according to the workshop master, that happens to be the principal of that dealer as well). I like it a lot, the car really "involves" you in to driving it. Jinba Ittai, as Mazda calls it and i personally think you can really feel that. The only real downside is the differential on the RWD 200 HP version, the TCS does not do a good job in braking the inner wheel so it doesn't spin. CX-60 with the LSD from an MX-5, that would be something

Matrix LED is actually on par with the Multibeam Mercedes has (except the "Ultra Range" as Mercedes calls it, 600 Meters High Beam) and Mazda has done a better Job with 16 LEDs per side masking the individual LEDs, than Mercedes has with the 84 per Side.

Consumption over the 260 km was around 5,8 l /100 km and i absolutely did not drive it economical in any way. And the Barcelona tests showed, the trip computer seems to add 0,5 l/100 km.

Overall i think it's a very good car for the price point - sure, there's a a few little things that could be done a lot better, but i guess that's exactly the price difference...

I only drove my AWD Diesel from the dealer to the valeter for a ceramic today, but even in that shortish time , this sentence of yours is exactly how I felt 'the car really "involves" you in to driving it'. The PHEV i left behind felt heavy and disjointed and disconnected in comparison. I really didnt think Id find a diesel being a real drivers car.

It’s here guys! First 50km done at the streets of the city! The sound of the engine is incredible! The torque is massive! The car feels like a bear! Will try it long distance this weekend and I’ll post info.

Congrats on your new car! It really looks astonishing!
Do you have any idea how much time it took for the car to arrive from Antwerp to the Bulgarian dealership?

Thank you! It took about 10 calendar days.

Here is information about the real consumption of the new 3.3 diesel, 254hp. Mazda CX-60 Sofia - Keramoti.
Sofia - Kresna: 6.3 l/100km (highway and countryside roads. It dropped to 6.1 off the highway)
Average speed: Highway 130km/h; Extra-urban: 85 km/h

Kresna - Keramoti: 6.2 l/100km (extra-urban and highway)
Average speed: Highway 130km/h; Extra-urban: 85-90 km/h

In general, I drove economically and normally. I guess it could be "even better", but it could also be much sportier. 🙂

I managed this yesterday on the motorway, 65miles to a uk gallon

A que velocidad media? El 200 o 254cv
?

If you'd read the thread and the forum you'd know my car is a 254bhp.

This mpg was attained at doing 60-65mph on the motorway. Heated seats on, radio on, AC on, adaptive cruise on.

 

[Papunardi]

On the way back from Keramoti to Sofia (about 380km) and slightly sportier driving - 6.5l/100km. I can say that if you go really sporty, probably you will hit 8.0l/100km and probably more, but that's on "racing mode" driving.
The car handles really great in corners and at speed over 140 km/h. Solid and stable!
Before the CX-60 I had Mazda 6 Takumi (2.5, 192hp, 2019) and I have experienced heavy understeering. Nothing like this with "the bear"
Good luck everyone and enjoy!

Hello All,

Thanks for the info provided so far.
My CX-60 Diesel, 254HP, is supposed to be delivered in a few weeks.
Could you please confirm if the recent delivered vehicles came with the soundproofing the doors?
I understand that it can be done on request free of charge by the dealers/authorized services but it is not actually a service recall.

The same question for the suspensions. Are they coming upgraded already for the new diesel vehicles?

I'm currently driving a VW Touareg, 3L Diesel, 2019. I hope I'll not be disappointed for changing to CX-60

Collected mine last week, Soundproofing wasn't done, dealer did it before I collected it, free of charge.

There are no suspension revisions for the Diesel - it's more comfortable than the PHEV even with the revised PHEV suspension. To get it better, you will need aftermarket solutions such as the Koni Special Actives which will be released in a month or so.

Hi guys,
almost 4k on my 3.3 diesel (254ps) Homura. Everything works ok.
I have read all the problems people are talking about and feeling thankful that I waited patiently for the diesel.
The engine is great. 6.6l/100km combined for 3700 km till now. Massive torque, great engine sound, small issue with i-stop system - when the engine is going on, you feel it and the car shakes. Gearbox works smooth and really happy with it.
Cannot complain about the suspension. Might be a bit rigid for some and completely ok for others.
The only thing that is not working good is the Wireless charger which doesn't work with my iPhone 12 ProMax, but works well with wife's iPhone13 and daughter's iPhone12, so not a big issue.
In general: car feels great, confi and solid!
Be good and have fun everyone!

 

[3dfx]

First 400 km in my new Homura. Everything seems quite fine - I really like the overall setup of the car, the built quality is good and the engine is a perfect fit for the size. Gearbox is fine. I have the impression that the returning effect of the steering wheel is not strong enough, but it might be that I need some more time to get used to it. The wireless charger doesn't get along well with my old Samsung.

Hello from Bulgaria, guys! I'm expecting to receive mine CX-60 Homura, 3.3 diesel, 254hp in March (ordered in August 2022) and I will appreciate if some of you, who is already enjoying his CX-60 diesel can share experience, problems, consumption (I seen in Japanese forums are talking about less than 5.0 l/100km for 254hp engine, 4x4 which sounds crazy!!!), pros & cons and other thoughts. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I have the diesel it's essentially a good car but coming from an audi to mazda I can say the build quality is of a MUCH lower standard - the door skins actually bend when you open the doors - human centric camera doesn't work ever - my mazda app is useless - panoramic opening sunroof is a con it's a fixed sunroof with a tiny opening portion - don't think the seats and interior will last long - on the plus side I'm getting about 42/43 mpg I'm going to get some sound deadening in the doors to stiffen them up a bit, have a remote start fitted, have a global opening/closure unit fitted, and swith the app over to the remote start app so I can open the doors and roll windows up

Hi, Math. Cannot agree with everything you said, but that's the beauty of diversity I also drove Audi in the past and the "last drop in the glass" was when I was asked to pay in 2012 EUR145.00+VAT for a bulb headlight Totally agree with you on Audi interior quality and the noise isolation. However I still believe that Audi owners are overpaying for this.
Have fun and be safe, mate.
