On the first day of the 2026 Chongqing Auto Show, Changan Mazda brought a factory-stock unmodified pure electric EZ-60 to the forefront. Not here to parade, but to show off its track record. Champion driver Ji Hao, who is also an ordinary Changan Mazda owner, stood on the exhibition platform and shared his experience of driving the mass-production EZ-60 to fight in the China New Energy Vehicle Rally Championship: a 6-day 910km course, 27 brands with 100 participating vehicles. Facing competition from most extended-range and plug-in hybrid models, this factory-stock pure electric SUV won the SUV category champion in the circuit race and the runner-up in the overall rally results.

The significance of this championship does not lie in the ranking itself, but in that it was run with a mass-production vehicle, with no modifications, no special tuning. The result directly corresponds to every ordinary user who bought an EZ-60.
Both the EZ-6 and EZ-60 models were developed according to global standards from the very beginning of the project. EZ-6 won the 2026 World Car of the Year Design award, being the first Chinese new energy model to receive this honor; EZ-60 simultaneously won 8 world-class top design awards, currently the only one in the SUV category. Design awards themselves cannot directly equate to product power, but it shows Mazda's design remains captivating, and it is top-tier under international aesthetic standards.

In the safety field, EZ-6 has passed 5 authoritative safety certifications such as C-NCAP, E-NCAP, with China-Europe dual five-star standards as its clear development baseline. EZ-60's battery safety meets new national standards and European standards requirements in advance. Furthermore, Changan Mazda offers a Battery Lifetime Spontaneous Combustion Compensation promise to all new energy users under its brand, with unlimited mileage and unlimited owners. This means after used car transactions, new owners also enjoy this benefit, which has a positive impact on resale value and second-hand circulation.

Progress in going global is one of the key information disclosed by Changan Mazda at this auto show. Currently, the brand has obtained whole vehicle certification for the EU, UK, and Australian three major markets, being the first domestic joint venture new energy automotive enterprise to secure all three certifications simultaneously. At the end of May, over 80 overseas dealers from Europe, Australia, and Thailand specially visited the Nanjing Factory for inspection, giving extremely high praise to the production process and quality control system. The EZ-6 and EZ-60 models are currently in a continuously advancing stage for overseas sales and pre-sales.

At the same time, EZ-60 has held the sales champion title for joint venture new energy mid-size SUVs continuously for 7 months in the domestic market. Although the scale of this niche track is not large, it shows that the product acceptance among the target user group is very stable.

Changan Mazda continues its consistent community strategy, with activities like Wish Journey, Owner Story Collection, Joy Mazda Creator, and Citizen Agent continuing to advance, aiming to establish a longer-term user emotional connection beyond the product. The Young Sprouts Plan Season 2 launched this May entered universities nationwide and simultaneously opened the EZ-60 University Modification Design Competition, opening summer practice slots to students. Since 2015, Changan Mazda has cumulatively donated and built 12 Hope Primary Schools in Yunnan, with a total investment exceeding 10 million yuan. In June, it initiated the Every Kilometer Has Kindness charity action again, converting user travel mileage into charity funds.

Worth mentioning is that at this auto show, Mazda also brought the MX-5, this classic convertible sports car that has existed for decades with multiple iterations but is still on sale. It appeared in an auto show themed on new energy, in a sense declaring to the outside world that Mazda's product logic has never been to follow the trend; it has the courage to embrace China's new energy, and also the persistence on classic fuel cars. Leveraging this Chongqing International Auto Show moment, Changan Mazda simultaneously launched the 618 Mid-Year Promotion. Until June 30, consumers purchasing vehicles can enjoy up to 20,000 yuan National Trade-in Subsidy, combined with 17,000 yuan Manufacturer Subsidy Replacement Subsidy. Purchasing designated models also gifts a worth 7,999 yuan Exclusive Set (containing original factory charging pile, LLumar solar film, TPE floor mats, and trunk mats), and offers a 0 down payment, 5-year low-interest plan, with an annualized rate of 1.99%. Additionally, it gifts a worth 7,999 yuan Lifetime Zero Fuel Benefit, and the test drive gold foil giveaway event is still continuing.
