The New Mazda EZ-60: A Stylish Competitor to the Tesla Model Y

Mazda has made waves in the electric vehicle market with the unveiling of its new EZ-60 SUV, a stylish model that shares its size with the Tesla Model Y.

Announced on Thursday, the EZ-60 is set to be sold globally and is regarded as a “dream car” developed in partnership with Changan Mazda, signifying a significant stride in Mazda’s new energy strategy following the launch of the EZ-6 electric sedan last October.

Built on Changan’s EPA1 platform, the EZ-60 is expected to mirror the specifications of its sibling model, the Deepal S07 crossover SUV, which features a robust 79.97 kWh battery offering a WLTP range of 295 miles.

The official debut of the EZ-60 is slated for April 23 at the Shanghai International Auto Show, where more details and visuals are anticipated. As electric vehicle technology continues to evolve, the EZ-60 will undoubtedly be one to watch in the global market.
