Autotalk · 0 comments

Mazda has confirmed it will introduce the all-electric CX-6e crossover SUV to the Australian market in 2026, expanding its battery electric vehicle line-up.

The CX-6e made its global debut at the Brussels Motor Show on January 9 and will become the second fully electric Mazda model confirmed for Australia, following the recently unveiled Mazda 6e.

Mazda says the CX-6e adopts a new evolution of its Kodo design language, combining electric propulsion with the brand’s Jinba Ittai driving philosophy.

Mazda Australia managing director Vinesh Bhindi says confirming the CX-6e for Australia is a significant step in the brand’s electrification strategy.

“Confirming the Mazda CX-6e for the Australian market is a monumental moment for Mazda Australia, adding yet another hugely compelling option for our customers and expanding our multi-solution approach,” Bhindi says.

“The design is bold and striking, bringing a new evolution of the Kodo Soul of Motion philosophy that Mazda customers know and love.”

Bhindi says the CX-6e is intended to retain the characteristics Mazda customers expect, despite the shift to full electrification.

“When you pair this unmistakable craftsmanship with the acclaimed Jinba-Ittai driving dynamics and cutting-edge technology, it’s clear that this is not just another EV, it’s a Mazda through and through,” he says.

The CX-6e has been developed in collaboration with Chongqing Changan Automobile Co., Ltd and reflects Mazda’s broader push to offer multiple powertrain solutions as it accelerates its transition toward electrification.

Mazda says further details, including Australian pricing and specifications, will be released closer to the CX-6e’s local launch.
