- The most affordable hybrid has a 1.5-liter four-cylinder and a 31.7 kWh battery pack.
- The all-electric version boasts a 77.94 kWh battery pack and a 255 hp rear motor.
- Mazda will also sell the EZ-60 in markets outside China where it’ll be named the CX-6e.
Mazda has just confirmed pricing details for the EZ-60 in China and it’s bound to make anyone living elsewhere feel a little envious. The SUV that will be sold with both battery-electric and range-extended hybrid powertrains will cost roughly the same as a brand-new Nissan Versa in the US.

Announced earlier this year, the EZ-60 has been brought to life through Mazda’s joint venture partnership with Changan and will be sold overseas, where it’ll be based as the CX-6e. In China, the Japanese automaker has confirmed it will have a starting price of just 119,900 yuan, or the equivalent of just $16,800, for the Base range-extender model.

Buyers wanting more can opt for the range-extended model in Pro and Max guise, starting at 129,900 yuan ($18,200) and 138,900 yuan ($19,500) respectively. Range-extender versions use a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder that functions as a generator charging the 31.7 KWh battery which powers a 255 hp electric motor at the rear axle.
The battery-electric model will also be available in Base, Pro, and Max trim levels. Prices for the cheapest of the three EVs start at 139,900 yuan, or $19,600, while the Pro is available from 149,900 yuan ($21,000), and the Max starts at 160,900 yuan ($22,600).
EV Tech
Like the range-extender, the EV rocks a 255 hp electric motor driving the rear wheels. However, it ditches the combustion generator in favor of a 77.94 kWh lithium-iron phosphate battery pack that Mazda says gives it up to 600 km of range on the lenient CLTC cycle.
While the exterior of the EZ-60 share some design cues with other Mazda models, the interior is unlike any of the brand’s cars sold in the West and sports a huge 26.5-inch 5K display doubling as the central infotainment screen, as well as a display for the passenger. There’s also a 100-inch augmented reality head-up display and cameras instead of traditional wing mirrors.
As mentioned above, the EZ-60 will be sold in other markets outside of China, including Europe, badged as the CX-6e. Unfortunately, it won’t make it to US shores.
