“Confirming Mazda Corporation is aware of criticism leveled at CX-60 from media in Europe last year,” the email stated.
“As CX-60 makes its way into more markets, we continue to study the vehicle and review both media and customer feedback,” the statement added.
The CX-60 is the first of four vitally important new SUV models to be developed from Mazda's new Large Product Group (LPG) architecture, featuring double-wishbone front- and multi-link rear suspension.
At the Australian media launch on the NSW south coast, CX-60 program director Kohei Shibata said a move from passive to driver-adjustable adaptive dampers was under consideration.
“We actually have looked at the possibility of putting that [adaptive dampers into LPG Models],” Shibata told carsales via an interpreter.
“But we don’t believe that function is necessary for this price range necessarily
“But as evolution of this model going forward, I think we will be looking at the potential of having that kind of function.
“At the moment this is not something we can immediately put in.”
Shibata said there were variances in suspension tune to reflect the different weights of CX-60 models with each of its three different new drivetrains – turbo-petrol and turbo-diesel mild-hybrid 3.3-litre inline six-cylinder and 2.5-litre petrol-electric plug-in hybrid.
“There are differences of tuning,” confirmed Shibata. “But when it comes to the composition and systems structures they are essentially the same."
“They all have the same concept and they all have the same target. Plug-in hybrid is heavier than other models but we made sure setting and structure-wise the PHEV offers the same performance as other models.”
The CX-60 also comes to Australia with three different tyre brand choices and carsales noted a variance in comfort and noise levels across them.
Shibata confirmed all three had been tested to Mazda’s quality standards, while the Mazda Australia statement said CX-60 buyers could not nominate a particular brand they wanted fitted to their vehicle.
“As with other manufacturers, we do not offer the option to choose between approved tyre brands and patterns, as this is dependent on fitment and supply at the time of production,” the statement read.
Klingt für mich als wird's zum Facelift Adaptive Dämpfer geben...
