Mazda confirms CX-8 pricing

ONE OF AUSTRALIA’S FAVOURITE LARGE SUVs – the Mazda CX-8 – has received a comprehensive styling update and a suite of new technological features.

Mazda’s Kodo design language, key exterior changes for the updated Mazda CX-8 including a block mesh pattern grille and grille surround, restyled front and rear bumpers, a new headlight and taillight design and a sleeker rear tailgate all complement the SUV’s contemporary form.

Other visual upgrades include a series of new-to-Mazda CX-8 wheel designs and Mazda’s latest body colour, Rhodium White, which becomes the third Takuminuri colour in the range and joins a now eight-strong paint palette.

Inside the three-row SUV, Mazda’s 10.25-inch Mazda Connect infotainment system now comes standard across the range, as does wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

More new standard technology added to the line-up includes a razor-sharp 7.0-inch digital instrument display, USB-C ports for front-row occupants and a remote window control system activated via the key fob.

Mazda’s intelligent Drive Select or ‘Mi-Drive’, which lets the driver switch between Normal and Off-Road modes, will be a standard feature for AWD models. A Sport mode is reserved for FWD petrol models.

Thanks to exhaustive research, testing and development, the updated Mazda CX-8 now gains redesigned coil springs and front dampers to enhance manoeuvrability and offer improved onboard comfort for the whole family.

Mazda Australia Managing Director, Vinesh Bhindi, said the updated CX-8’s myriad new features and redesigned appearance would ensure it stayed at the top of buyers’ wish lists.

“The Australian consumer has embraced Mazda CX-8 – its combination of elegance and practicality makes it a compelling package that’s hard to ignore.

“With this latest update, Mazda CX-8 has taken the game to another level, with both styling and technology that will ensure it’s a hit with Aussie buyers for years to come.”

The new Mazda CX-8 will go on sale in March 2023.
