The cx60 was launched june9 2023, and I got mine last august 2023. It had very few local reviews back then but I still bought the car for what it has and understood what it hasn’t. I didn’t buy it for the daily drive in the city traffic even if the reviews said that fuel consumption was better than the cx5 ( I didn’t believe it). The cx60 I think is best in long drives where you can appreciate the comfort, the fuel efficiency, the driving engagement and engine power. When I drive in the city I turn off the I-stop function to eliminate the transmission hesitancy and I don’t mind the difference in fuel consumption because it is not much difference whether I-stop is on or off in the city. What Caco said about transmission is true but what he failed to say is that when I-stop is off the transmission hesitancy is few and far in between (at least for my experience). The review of the ride quality is true but if you plan to buy this car it should be expected because the engine is powerful and I think it is unsafe to put very soft suspension on such a powerful inline 6 but I think it can be improved with smaller wheels may be 18s. As I have said, I bought mine because of what it has and understood what it has not ( no car is perfect anyway), I am very satisfied with my cx60. My advice for potential buyers is to look at it and test drive it with no prejudgment or bias because it is very easy to compare it to other luxury cars and previous Mazda models, the car is not for everyone but if you think it’s for you then go for it!

I miss this kind of reviews, keep it up caco!

this guy is realllllly the best presenter. His reviews are detailed on key points without being boring

Came across this page for the first time, watching all the way from South Africa and I must say I love your style & personality you put into your reviews - you are one of the best I have seen world-wide.

Good honest review. This is gen1 of the cx 60 totally new. Am excited to see what direction mazda goes with this in future generations

Your reviews are informative but most importantly entertaining. 😂

As usual, amusing Caco! Mazda lover here!

Brilliant and thorough review. Thank you

Had mine since October. The only thing I don’t like is the consistency of the driver id. It works only 60 percent of the time for me. Ride is a lot harsher than the SK forester which I also own which is really really plush, but you get used to it. Note that when I say harsh , you feel the road. That said, everything is dampened and muted. Some switches are plasticky but it’s not really a big deal. You eventually learn how to take off smoothly with the transmission which is can be jerky initially especially coming from a cvt. I do drive with the iStop feature turned off as it only saves a very very minor amount of fuel but a majority of jerkiness is eliminated right away. In any case, all is forgiven when you overtake most everything in metro Manila at only 2000 rpm. That 6 cylinder is worth it, believe you me. I would have bought a CX-8 but all the goodies you get for around 600k makes the step up a no brainer. This car should easily cost more considering everything that comes with it. It's a gas guzzler in traffic and gets around 4.5 km/L per tank in pure city driving. But then again, if you're fretting about gas prices, you shouldn't be looking at this car and get something smaller with a sub 2.0L engine. Oh yeah, I used to get flagged down on coding days when i first got this but since December my flag downs are down to zero. Having an LTO compliant 'hybrid' green temporary plate helps a lot.

Appreciate the honest review on the transmission. It's really disappointing to hear that jerkiness on a Mazda. I can't believe that they change from torque converter transmission to a DCT.

Man I love this guy 😭 I love his car reviews and I live in Kuwait 💀

I am glad about the honest transmission view, was only worried about the stiff suspension being the main topic from Western Auto Media’s feedback but with the horrendous traffic crawl we need to do here in the Philippines, I think we need a smoother operation of the transmission.

Good review, as always

Always good reviews sir hehe

Really good review. Every other review i've seen so far struggled to get across the transmission issues but you nailed it.

You take Autodeal to the next level.

Great video! I've been a fan of autodeal for perhaps four years I always enjoy the top ___ and comparison videos. I'm watching the news before this vid and so had an idea that it would be cool if you guys do a walk around of "francisco motors jeepney", I know its not the type of vehicle you would normally review but I think it would be a great opportunity to educate people and show support to our local car manufacturer and jeepney drivers.

Awesome review as ever! I still feel like the CX-8 is the best value is Mazda's line up - 7-seater, powerful, spacious, and good feature set. That being said, seeing the CX-60 and CX-90 in person, one cannot deny the sort of "majesty" they exude. Thanks Autodeal!

14:50 It's right to be critical on the review for its price.. thank you always for a great review

Make a Behind the wheel or review for the Subaru Evoltis AWD 2024. I really like all of your (you in particular and AutoDeal in general) reviews to many cars I checked on.

I really liked these kind of thumbnails

lol that poetic introduction

😂 Great review... Immediately subscribed.

I agree with everything you said and I trust that Mazda will take all of this feedback onboard and that the next update will be so much better. I waited for so long to purchase a CX-60 Azami PHEV (in Australia) but was very disappointed when I drove the car. I ended up purchasing a CX-5 Akera Turbo which is also a fantastic vehicle. I will happily upgrade to a CX-60 in the next few years once Mazda addresses all of the issues.

answers the question on my head :D

8:19 is the money shot 😂

Mazda is really stepping up their game,hopefully it would encourage other car manufacturers to do as well.

Is it worth it? I guess if you have the bread to buy and have enough to sustain the 6.5km/l go! Mazda is Mazda, it’s such a great car. Nice review as well, keep it up Chief! 🤙

Looking forward to the CX90 review soon =)

I love this car ❤ Got ours a month ago.

For the CX-60, I watched other reviews from other countries and they think the diesel is the better option than the gasoline variant. The stiffness of the ride (Mazda may need to a adjust this) and the transmission (I'm not a big fan of dual clutch, i owned one previously and was a disaster and prone to breaking down) are the major comments they have. Here in the philippines our major problem is we have terrible roads which is a problem for stiff suspension cars. This car was made to challenge the bmw X3/ Audi Q3 for a much cheaper price remember that this car is 300k more expensive than a top of the line CRV/ Rav 4 which is still a good but considering this has bigger engine, great interior and great looking car...

Great review. It looks like the 8 speed wet clutch automatic has a few kinks. Word is that software updates are being rolled out (they've been doing this in Europe at least)

Dream brand 😍 sophisticated look

Looks nice.

How much is this again? Also, lovee the music on this video.

Next review - Onitsukas 😂

Softened but still honest review. The judder was a well-reviewed flaw elsewhere in the globe and made me stay away from the purchase. The cx60 was supposed to be the prime choice with the cx5 getting old even with the turbo. I’d be interested again when it would be resolved.

Very entertaining review. Test drove the CX-60 inline 6 in New Zealand. I expected a 2024 vehicle at this price point to have a digital rear view mirror, connected services, highway assist to name a few and CX-60 has non of these. Also, the wireless charger did not have a proper grip with the phone, and the rear passenger entrance is a tight squeeze. Hope Mazda would fix these in the next iteration.

Which color in actual is best for the diesel variant, Platinum Quartz or Rhodium White?

The engine is a monster! Driving it everyday.

Sir caco, not related question to the video. Just asking, do you have a review video on Mercedes V-Class? Thanks.

when it was first launched, I want it. now I am still thinking if I would buy a cx-60 or just retain my Mercedes GLC200

Can you also do an in depth review of the 2024 Mazda CX-8? Would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks.

A great review. I believe that having a clutch instead of a torque converter is a deal breaker for me. I commute through an area full of traffic lights before heading to the highway. This setup is very annoying.

difference from the 2023 model?

Tito, what is an EWOK size?

I hope the CX70 which is coming out on Jan 30 of this year for the US market would be as good as this

First comment from Lanao del Norte Mindanao.

the transmission feel is worrying if it feels uncertain to hold or shift gears

If not for JAPEPA (Japan Philippines Economic Partnership Agreement this would cost us above 4M. This thing is a monster at highway speed. In city driving you just need to lightly press on the accelerator to reduce the jerkiness as reviewed in this video. I love mine 😊

Great review, I understand your criticism, as I would expect a Mazda at that price point would be more refined. But since it's a new car, it's computers are probably still adapting to driver inputs, most of these will self-tune itself as it gets mileage on (hope so).

Sir Caco, wala pa po bang full review for 2024 mazda cx-8 signature?

Informative. Mazda is my preferred brand to buy in case my family and I decide to go back home for good. This CX60 is a good option considering it is comparable to my current 2018 Acura MDX Sport Hybrid. Honda decided to go CVT or eCVT with their newer cars, and I am not a fan of their new tranny, although I did not recognized the difference when I drove their now defunct Acura ILX, wich is now the new Integra. This 6 cylinder car is marketed towards people who don't really worry about gas mileage, the electric motor is there to assist the acceleration more than hug the trees, which is the same as my MDX. I just wished Honda will release Passport in the Philippines, which will rival CX60. Only then I will reconsider getting another Honda.

WOW! Lets do CX60 then!

what is the best SUV for you guys? fuel efficiency, spacious, 50/50 sporty and luxury interior, good looking, have a power. pls recommend. (excludes large SUV)

2024 mazda 3 fastback review pls❤

how i wish i can have that

is this in sports mode?

Totally not a fan of you Caco (my wife loves your reviews), but as a cx60 owner, this review is spot on. I always pray that the car's transmission behaves whenever I drive in slower speeds. Gunning it on open roads however make these quirks vanish. ❤

Please review Toyota RAV4 Prime 2024.

3:32 is it really VTEC turbo? Or typo?

Any idea why we don't have the CX50 in the Philippines?

Mazda owner here. I love my mazda cx5!! Di lang masyado ma appreciate ang driving sa Pinas kasi pangit mag drive sa Pinas! Siksikan kung saan saan ang mga sasakyan! Ka irita!!

To those of you who have the unit, how many km do you have? The transmission utilizes fuzzy logic and learns the drivers, the fix is resetting that system and a programming fix.

Ok na sana kaso masyado mababa ang ground clearance.

Is it better to get the CX9 vs CX60? Honestly?

Will the 3.3L diesel gets the same figures as the 3.3L petrol? At 6.5km/L

USA is 340 HP, here it’s 280 HP. I think they detune a lot of cars for the Philippine market

Sucks that we don’t have the cx-60 in the states

that is only a mild hybrid the 48v only assist in starting the motor and other electrical of the car.

Seen one last week and its a big, good looking car. It will get a lot of attention on the road yet the backseat is very disappointing, feels cramp for its size. Headroom is bad, feels like a cx3 headroom. Interior is very premium but If i have the money id rather choose the cx9 or the turbo cx5.

5:35 HAHAHAHA

Its not a DCT. it is a wet clutch 8 speed automatic transmission without torque converter

3.3 inline 6 is the most balanced engine, from durability and relibility, smooth and strong torque, way better than hybrid.

6.5Km/L is not bad considering a tricycle ride in BF Homes Parañaque would cost more than a liter of premium gasoline for the same distance so then it would be better travel in that vehicle... what is not better is the difference in cost of buying a tricycle vs. a Mazda 60.... hihihi

Man, i wish CX5 inherits the tech of this car

Review the all new triton sir

YOUR BIGGEST KENYAN FAN, SUBSCRIBER, LIKER, COMMENTER RIGHT HERE, AS USUAL, 13/01/2024

A Mazda with VTEC. Damn.

Overpowered car. But unrefined when it comes to power delivery (transmission). It’s fast but that’s about it. My fave is still the cx-9

I've been waiting for The CX-70 reveal for many months.. Jan 30th is the North American reveal. Think I'm going all in.

Price?

still waiting for the 2024 cx5

You need to work on your audio. Volume isnt balanced and that can easily be fixed in editing.

Sadly, the CX-60 is NOT coming to the US after all. Bad decision, Mazda. I was planning to seriously consider a CX-60. Instead, we are apparently getting the 90 with 3rd row delete. The 90 is too big for me. This is disappointing news for us.

Caco, the real heroes are the Mazda fans, early adopters (who probably didn’t know any better?). They are beta testing this first gen car for the next set of buyers in the following years. A friend of mine who owns one (4 months old) had his front differentials and fuel pump already replaced.

Not available in Canada…

Did I read that right? VTEC?

👌👌👌

natawa ako dun sa EWOKS eh hahahaha

compari with new crv please!

Would look best in TE37s with a bit of drop in height! 👌🏻

Mazda leveled up because the lower segment is overcrowded with chinese brands.

To all those who want to own Mazdas, do ask about the battery. I own a Mazda 6 and you can't purchase a replacement battery except from Mazda. The battery is 3 times more expensive than an ordinary battery.

No more G-vectoring system???

Unrelated, but what happened to the sound mixing on this video 😵‍💫

For me It's a mix of,.Cute and cool! For it's cuteness overload is the front facia and for the cool is the rear,,..Which again for me has a touch of a Bmw X5 But like Caco,.I too am a fan of Mazda since it's also my ultimate dream car too 👍😉👍 Anyway,.In other cars! The hev is visible to the or it also stands out to let everyone know special our local authorities,,..That your driving an e-v! Specially with it's soundless and the quiteness of it's engine.So hopefully This all new baby of Mazda,. Will also be an exception from giving you a violation ticket for driving it,,..ON A CODING DAY And besides the full hybrid,.That also make a whole on your pants when it have it's problems (like engine or battery failure) Do's it has the same problem? For a semi-hybrid That's also use''s gas? As a charging power?

Can you please do a review of the chery tiggo 8 thank you

You had better decided for the diesel engine which we prefer in high speed Germany...maybe next time.

I'm more disappointed that you're not the owner of autodeal
