The EZ-60 redefines the user experience of intelligent, light-luxury electric SUVs with upgraded "KODO: Soul of Motion" aesthetics, ultra-joy AI smart cockpit, "Jinba Ittai"-based precision handling, and top-tier active and passive safety.

Upgraded "KODO" Aesthetics: Continuing MAZDA's "KODO: Soul of Motion" design gene, the EZ-60 blends futuristic electric technology with modern designs. Its dual-section waistline flows from the hood through the C-pillar to the rear, creating dynamic tension and a sense of motion. And five precision-engineered surfaces on the vehicle body deliver boundless light and shadow effects. The EZ-60 is the first electric SUV to introduce a D-pillar air duct design, complemented by 9 air ducts across the vehicle for aerodynamic optimization, reducing overall drag coefficient by 60.8 counts, extending driving range by 41 Km, and generating up to 705 N of downforce on the rear axle. This enhances handling responsiveness and stability and reduces wind noise during driving, delivering driving pleasure comparable to that of a million-dollar supercar.

Ultra-joy AI Smart Cockpit: The EZ-60 is equipped with the world-first 4nm cockpit chip, along with a 5K retina integrated large display and a 100-inch glasses-free 3D HUD to enhance visual comfort and interaction efficiency. Its built-in AI assistant is ready to invoke over 1700 car functions with millisecond-level response, bringing a pleasant driving experience.

"Jinba Ittai"-based Precision Handling: The EZ-60 is optimized over 200 tuning iterations to increase roll stiffness by 20% and improve pitch control by 10%. Combined with a Continuous Damping Control (CDC) system and proprietary "Posture Geometry" technology, it redefines driver-car synergy through predictability, controllability, and fluidity, delivering the "Jinba Ittai" experience for the electric vehicle era.

Top-tier Active and Passive Safety: The EZ-60 comes standard with Level 2 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), featuring over 30 integrated driving-parking assist functions. These cover more than 200 application scenarios, addressing high-frequency needs with comprehensive protection.
