So, different enough customers but not different enough cars ? Somebody needs to check they're logic.An interesting comment from Mazda regarding the naming of the vehicle.
The 2025 Mazda CX-70 Is Literally Just A CX-90 With Only Two Rows Of Seats And A Different Name
Weeks after getting to check it out in person, we're still wondering why Mazda did this.jalopnik.com
It is really a blindside move by Mazda and I really hope the negative review will continue so they can understand that they actually made a mistake by doing this.
The reality is that I think the amount of issues they had with the new platform (CX60/CX90), they decided against an all new model, due to probably lack of development people/tools etc. The original plan was to make an all new CX70 but when you have a product that is half baked and you don't have the resources you come up with a bad product like this and you hope that customers will eat it.
Now, something crossed my mind, what if Mazda is planning something else to fill that gap? Lets say a wagon on the new large platform that will be around 195" long and will fill the gap left by the Mazda 6 and the new supposed to be CX70. I don't think they are smart enough to do this but I would buy something like that in a heart beat.
