Nice to sit in, fun to drive
The Mazda CX-80 proves that a practical car with lots of space does not have to be a pragmatic choice. That starts with the stylish appearance, which is anything but the appearance of a boring seven-seater family car. The luxurious interior is just as beautiful and is characterized by high-quality finishing, beautiful materials and of course the three rows of seats.

All seven passengers will find a comfortable place in this spacious interior. The driver perhaps enjoys it most because the Mazda is not only beautiful to look at, but a joy to drive thanks to its spontaneous power, refined suspension and precise steering.
Hooking up a trailer is child’s play with Trailer Hitch View
With its plug-in hybrid powertrain and permanent 4WD, the Mazda CX-80 is not only economical and fast, but also very powerful. Do you have a large caravan or do you regularly travel with a boat or horse trailer? Then the Mazda CX-80 is good company, as the towbar can handle 2,500 kg.

To make hooking up easy, Mazda came up with ‘Trailer Hitch View’. Via a camera you can see on the central screen on the dashboard exactly when the ball of the tow bar is in the correct position. Get out, turn in the nose wheel and the trailer lowers neatly onto the tow bar.
Always the perfect driving mode
It goes without saying that the Mazda CX-80 is equipped with all available safety and assistance systems. The i-Activsense driver assistance systems help prevent accidents and make traveling very relaxing. The infotainment system is equipped with the intelligent Alexa voice control and a new, fully connected navigation system. Of course, your smartphone is easy to connect if you prefer to use Apple Car Play or Android Auto. The eight-speed automatic transmission and Mazda’s i-Active All-Wheel Drive, in combination with Mazda Intelligent Drive Select with five driving modes, ensure that the two engines work together optimally. It is clear: Mazda has reinvented the seven-seater with the CX-80.
