Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 15 Oct, 23:32 · Archive

Mazda is releasing revised suspension for the CX-60 and CX-80 SUVs in European markets from December 2026.

Mazda is releasing retuned suspension for the CX-60 and CX-80 SUVs in European markets from December 2026, continuing efforts to improve their ride comfort. The company has revised the rear suspension crossmember bushings and added more sound-absorbing materials in the engine bay and between the engine bay and cabin. The updated models will also gain Active Parking Control, a semi-autonomous parking system that handles both parallel and perpendicular parking manoeuvres.

This marks the third suspension update for the CX-60 in as many years. Late in 2023, Mazda began fitting revised rear shock absorbers at the factory, which Australian buyers were offered as a free retrofit the following year. In May 2025, a further revision brought softer rear springs, increased rear rebound damping, and firmer front compression damping. The CX-80 is receiving its first suspension update.

Mazda Australia has declined to confirm whether or when these updates will reach the Australian market. The refresh also introduces new paint options: Aero Grey replaces Deep Crystal Blue mica on the CX-60, and Polymetal Grey joins the CX-80's palette.
