Geraldine Herbert test drives the Mazda CX-80<\/p><\/div>\n

The Mazda CX-80 blends Japanese elegance with diesel power in a refined, three-row SUV designed for families who value comfort, space, and long-range capability writes Geraldine Herbert<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

What is it?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Mazda CX-80 is Mazda\u2019s largest SUV for the European market \u2014 a three-row, seven-seater built for families who need serious space without sacrificing style. Offered as both a plug-in hybrid and a diesel, it\u2019s a rare reminder that diesel can still deliver, especially for high-mileage drivers. At nearly five metres long, it\u2019s purpose-built for long-haul comfort and quiet confidence on the open road.<\/p>\n

\n

Styling?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Mazda\u2019s design language leans into elegance rather than flash \u2014 and the CX-80 wears it well. From the sleek LED lighting to its sculpted profile, there\u2019s a restrained beauty here. Colours like Artisan Red<\/strong> and Melting Copper<\/strong> add visual flair without going overboard. Despite its size, the CX-80 feels more refined than imposing \u2014 a grown-up SUV that whispers rather than shouts.<\/p>\n

\n

Under the Bonnet?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In this diesel variant, the CX-80 is powered by a 3.3L e-SKYACTIV D inline-six<\/strong>, producing 254 PS and 550 Nm of torque<\/strong>. Paired with an 8-speed automatic and Mazda\u2019s i-Activ all-wheel drive<\/strong>, it delivers smooth, steady progress with a long-legged stride ideal for motorway cruising. While diesel is waning in popularity, this engine is a timely reminder of why it once dominated: torque-rich, efficient, and effortlessly capable.<\/p>\n

\n

What About Inside?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Step inside and the CX-80 exudes calm. Clean lines, quality materials, and subdued tones create a zen-like ambience. Twin 12.3-inch displays<\/strong> handle infotainment and instrumentation, with a rotary controller and physical buttons<\/strong> replacing smudge-prone touchscreens \u2014 a choice many drivers will welcome.<\/p>\n

Seating is flexible, with seven-seat or six-seat (captain\u2019s chair) configurations<\/strong> available. The second row slides and reclines, and access to the third row is surprisingly easy. While the very back is best for kids or flexible adults, the boot expands to a cavernous 1,971 litres<\/strong>, making this a serious load-lugger.<\/p>\n

\n

What Are My Options?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Mazda CX-80 offers a well-judged trim line-up, allowing you to choose between subtle luxury and high-spec indulgence, all with a solid standard equipment list. Whether you lean toward plug-in hybrid efficiency or diesel stamina, there\u2019s a version tailored for your needs.<\/p>\n

Exclusive-Line<\/strong> kicks things off with impressive kit: black leather seats, 18″ alloys, LED lighting, power tailgate, a 12.3″ driver display, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and three-zone climate control. It’s the understated choice, but far from basic.<\/p>\n

Homura<\/strong> adds visual attitude with black 20″ alloys, Nappa leather seats, ambient lighting, ventilated front seats, and a beefed-up Bose sound system. If you like your SUVs with a sportier edge and a little more presence, this is your sweet spot.<\/p>\n

Takumi<\/strong> trades sporty for serene, swapping in white Nappa leather, wood trim, and chrome detailing. It\u2019s all about elegance and calm, while still offering the same top-end spec as Homura \u2014 think head-up display, navigation, and smart interior tech.<\/p>\n

Opt for Homura Plus<\/strong> or Takumi Plus<\/strong>, and you\u2019re treated to the works: panoramic sunroof, 360\u00b0 top-view camera, adaptive LED headlights, advanced cruise control, wireless phone charging, and captain\u2019s chairs (on Takumi Plus) for that executive lounge feel in the second row.<\/p>\n

\n

<\/h3>\n

And Safety?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The CX-80 doesn\u2019t skimp on safety. It earned Best in Class Large SUV<\/strong> from Euro NCAP, and features include:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    Unresponsive Driver Support<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Emergency Lane Keeping<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Blind Spot Monitoring<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Rear Cross Traffic Alert<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Whether you’re carrying kids, pets, or just precious cargo, peace of mind comes standard.<\/p>\n

    \n

    Rivals and pricing
    \n<\/strong>Pricing starts at \u20ac61,380 for the plug-in hybrid and \u20ac72,940 for the diesel, with five well-equipped trims available: Exclusive-Line, Homura, Takumi, and their upgraded Plus variants. Fully loaded models like the Takumi Plus diesel top out at \u20ac80,990.\u00a0In terms of size and space, the CX-80 lines up against some big hitters:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • \n

      Skoda Kodiaq<\/strong> \u2013 from \u20ac53,640<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Hyundai Santa Fe<\/strong> \u2013 from \u20ac66,995<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Volvo XC90<\/strong> \u2013 from \u20ac95,995<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Audi Q7<\/strong> \u2013 from \u20ac109,000<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      While the Mazda sits closer to premium territory in price, it undercuts most luxury SUVs while offering a similarly polished driving experience and strong kit levels.<\/p>\n

      \n

      Verdict<\/strong><\/h3>\n

      The Mazda CX-80 is a confident, capable SUV that feels more considered than flashy. Its diesel engine won\u2019t be for everyone, but it\u2019s a quiet, refined performer with serious range and real-world usability. While the plug-in hybrid might steal the spotlight, the diesel variant quietly reminds us there’s still a place for a mile-muncher \u2014 especially when it’s this smooth, efficient, and well-honed.<\/p>\n
