The Mazda CX-60 is Mazda's first foray into the luxury car market, utilizing a newly designed FR (front-engine, rear-wheel drive) modular platform. It is positioned as a 5-seat flagship SUV. It is the first model in the CX series to use the "Large Product Group" longitudinal engine rear-wheel drive platform, paving the way for the more upmarket Mazda CX-90.
