Mazda EZ-60 2027 price, LiDAR specifications and 600 km CLTC range

Adding LiDAR to a comparable Mazda EZ-60 costs 12 000 yuan in China. The 2027 model-year range now includes four LiDAR-equipped versions, while the official price spread has widened to 119 900–172 900 yuan. A launch discount of 6 000 yuan temporarily lowers the entry price to 113 900 yuan.

This follows the story that began in August, when Mazda opened pre-orders without disclosing the price or full specifications of the LiDAR version. The details are now clearer: the roof-mounted Hesai ATX is quoted for the EZ-60 with detection range of up to 200 metres, while the full sensor suite includes three millimetre-wave radars, 11 HD cameras and 12 ultrasonic sensors. Changan Mazda says forward perception exceeds 250 metres. Hesai itself lists up to 230 metres at 10% reflectivity for the current ATX.

The navigation-assisted driving function operates on highways at speeds of up to 130 km/h and in cities at up to 80 km/h. The parking system can recognise more than 300 types of parking spaces, while the number of active-safety functions has risen to 25. Some features, including memorised parking routes, are due to arrive later via OTA updates. This remains an advanced driver-assistance package rather than fully autonomous driving.

The powertrains are largely unchanged. The range-extender version uses a 1.5-litre petrol generator, a 31.73 kWh battery and a 190 kW rear electric motor, equivalent to about 258 hp; it can travel up to 200 km on electricity under CLTC. The battery-electric version keeps its 77.94 kWh LFP pack, rear-wheel drive and up to 600 km of CLTC range.

The real technical addition to the family is LiDAR. By contrast, the EZ-60 Sport Edition shown in Chengdu is mainly a styling package rather than a more powerful derivative. Mazda is therefore addressing a more meaningful gap in China, where advanced urban driver-assistance systems have become an important selling point for domestic EVs.

The technology has not been confirmed for Europe. The global Mazda CX-6e is indeed based on the EZ-60, but Mazda's official European material does not announce the Chinese Hesai ATX package. The specifications of this new LiDAR version therefore should not be transferred to the CX-6e.
