Bermaz Motor has officially expanded its premium SUV footprint in Malaysia with the launch of the new 2026 Mazda CX-60 3.3L MHEV. Building on the strong momentum generated by the 2.5L variant’s debut in late 2025, this new inline-6 mild-hybrid addition cements the CX-60’s position as the flagship pioneer of Mazda’s premium Large Product Group.
Designed under the concept of Noble Toughness, the CX-60 marries a commanding road presence with the minimalist philosophy of Ma (the Japanese aesthetic of purposeful space), resulting in a luxury SUV that feels disciplined, sophisticated, and deeply human-centric.
The fully-imported (CBU) Mazda CX-60 3.3L MHEV arrives with a starting price of RM 252,872.80 (on-the-road without insurance).
The 3.3L MHEV variant is offered in two strictly curated exterior-and-interior combinations, ensuring a distinct identity for each specification:
- Rhodium White is matched to a precision bar-type front grille with bright chrome signature wing accents, complete with 20-inch black machined alloy wheels. The interior gets Pure White Fabric & Wood
- Machine Grey units get athletic honeycomb front grille with gloss black painted signature wing accents, complete with 20-inch solid black alloy wheels. The interior gets Tan Premium Leather
Opting for the Rhodium White exterior unlocks a cabin inspired by the Japanese principle of Kaichou, which is the harmony of contrasting textures. The interior features:
- Hacho Wood Trim: Asymmetrical, intentionally uneven wood grain layouts that capture a natural rhythm.
- Light-Reactive Textiles: Woven fabrics on the dashboard and door cards that shift subtly depending on the cabin’s ambient light.
- Traditional Stitching: The application of Kakenui (floating hang-stitching) and Musubu (interlaced knot-tying), showcasing deep textile artistry.
The CX-60 is built upon Mazda’s SkyActiv Multi-Solution Scalable Architecture, utilizing a classic longitudinal front-engine, rear-wheel-drive biased configuration for inherently balanced handling.
The Engine: An e-SkyActiv G 3.3-litre Inline-6 turbocharged petrol engine, outputting 280 PS and 450 Nm of torque.
M Hybrid Boost: A 48-volt mild-hybrid (MHEV) setup recovers energy during deceleration, smooths out the engine’s i-Stop functions, and fills in torque gaps during initial acceleration.
Transmission & Drivetrain: Power is managed via a crisp, torque-converterless 8-speed automatic transmission (8-EAT) and sent to the road through an intelligent, rear-biased i-Activ AWD system.
Drivers can fine-tune their experience using the Mi-Drive selector. Exclusive to the 3.3L MHEV variant is an Off-road Mode, expanding the SUV’s capabilities beyond tarmac while maintaining a composed and predictable chassis response.
Every element of the driver’s environment is tuned to minimize eye strain and maximize engagement, anchored by three seamlessly integrated screens: a 12.3-inch multi-information digital cluster, a 12.3-inch infotainment display, and a large Active Driving Display (Heads-Up Display).
Standard luxury and convenience tech inside the CX-60 includes:
- Driver Personalization System: Automatically scans the driver and adjusts the 10-way power seat, steering column, side mirrors, and climate controls to the optimal position.
- 360° View Monitor with See-Through View: Projects a transparent perspective of the vehicle’s body to eliminate tight-space blind spots.
- Acoustic Excellence: A premium 12-speaker BOSE surround sound system tailored specifically to the CX-60’s interior cabin acoustics.
- Wireless Apple CarPlay, Wireless Android Auto, and a high-speed wireless charging tray.
The Mazda CX-60 carries a top-tier 5-star Euro NCAP rating, backed by high-tensile structural crash zones and an exhaustive suite of proactive i-Activsense driver assistance safety systems.
Key safety features operating continuously in the background include Front and Rear Smart Brake Support (SBS), Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) with Stop & Go, Cruising & Traffic Support (CTS), Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM), Rear & Front Cross Traffic Alert, and Driver Monitoring with Attention Alert.
To guarantee an effortless ownership journey, Bermaz Motor backs the Mazda CX-60 with:

- 5-Year Free Maintenance Programme
Valid for up to 5 years or 100,000 km (whichever comes first), this comprehensive package fully covers all scheduled maintenance requirements, including required labor, genuine parts, and lubricants.
