2024 Mazda CX-60 Interior
The interior aims to deliver on the idea of being a true luxury alternative to the Germans with premium materials and a focus on fit and finish.
Based on what we have seen so far, the interior feels like a step up from Mazda’s current offerings. We aren’t huge fans of the design of the doors and centre console; it doesn’t really scream premium and lacks the refinement and feel of some German equivalents.
The Takumi specification Mazda showed at the CX-60’s global reveal featured a white interior with maple wood, along with a fabric dashboard with Kakenui stitching. It looks amazing in pictures and we can’t wait to see it in person.
Outside of those materials, the rest of the interior feels high-class and premium. Soft-touch materials along the dashboard, centre console, and door trims mean high-frequency touch points are adequately covered.
Second-row passengers get to experience the same level of quality as the fronts, with no real skimping on materials. Sometimes manufacturers will cheap out on the second row because they think nobody will notice. That means soft-touch materials along the door, decent storage within the doors, and a decent central arm rest with cupholders.
2024 Mazda CX-60 Infotainment
Mazda has equipped the CX-60 cabin with USB-C connectivity in the front and second rows. Depending on specification you’ll also find wireless phone charging, along with a 12V outlet.
The infotainment screen comes in at 12.3 inches, as does the display ahead of the driver. Smartphone mirroring comes in the form of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with audio featuring AM, FM and DAB+ digital radio. A 12-speaker Bose sound system is also available on some grades, which integrates a subwoofer under the boot floor.
The display ahead of the driver can also be configured in a number of styles – there’s even the ability to supersize the text within the display if you find the regular font size too small.
