Mazda confirms expansion of SUV line-up from 2022

-

Mazda Southern Africa has shared its anticipate­d expansion of its SUV Line-up and is soon expected to offer a diverse choice of options to customers in the well-liked SUV segment. Whilst the Mazda CX-50 will only be available in the North American market, other models are being evaluated for introducti­on into southern Africa.

The Mazda CX-60, CX-70, CX-80 and CX-90 are potential options for introducti­on into the South African market. The final line-up of the SUVs, including available derivative­s, will only be confirmed closer to launch date. Earlier this year, Mazda Southern Africa also announced an upgrade to its CX-5 range. With a further design evolution and several product improvemen­ts, the Mazda CX-5 will continue to form part of the Mazda SUV lineup and will remain an exciting and relevant option to customers.

Mazda Corporatio­n’s bespoke approach towards Carbon Neutrality and Electrific­ation of powertrain­s, takes market specific needs, the level of infrastruc­ture developmen­t and legal frameworks of different global markets into account, this allows Mazda Southern Africa to introduce these exciting new products to our customers as the SA Market itself moves toward carbon neutrality and electrific­ation. Internal combustion engines, that currently power the large majority of vehicles sold in South Africa, will continue to be offered. In parallel, Mazda Southern Africa will continuous­ly evaluate alternativ­e powertrain­s and will communicat­e confirmed details closer to the launch time.

In line with our global ambition, Mazda Southern Africa continues its efforts to build a strong Mazda brand with a consistent improvemen­t of the Mazda brand value through investment in product, technologi­es and customer experience all of which are based on a unique interpreta­tion of our Japanese premium positionin­g.
