Full reveal: Mazda EZ-60 gets high-tech interior and 100-mile PHEV

Date:

Meanwhile, the Mazda 6e gets a 254bhp motor and a battery pack of the same capacity, yielding 345 miles between charges.

The EZ-60 also draws on the new design language introduced with the saloon, with thin LED daytime-running lights mounted high on the fascia above smaller main-beam headlights. The lower portion of the grille is outlined with LED lighting.

It is notably more angular than the 6e, however, with a prominent chin spoiler on the front bumper and a pronounced shoulder line.

Inside, a large 26.45in infotainment screen spans across most of the width of the dashboard, and a heads-up display is projected in front of the driver to show critical information such as range and speed. It forgoes conventional side mirrors for rear-view cameras, for which screens are mounted on the doors, under the A-pillar. 

Mazda has yet to officially confirm whether the EZ-60 will come to the UK, but it would give the brand a much-needed boost in its electric car sales, and in one of the most popular classes of car. It confirmed UK launch plans for the saloon earlier this year.

The Japanese brand previously said it would follow the 6e with a new electric SUV developed independently of Changan, using batteries designed in collaboration with Panasonic. This new model, due around the same time as the next iteration of the combustion-engined Mazda CX-5, will also be assembled in Japan.
