AutoExec Summary

Mazda’s CX-8 has always been overshadowed by the slightly larger CX-9. However, with a new facelift, it might finally shine on its own. The 2023 Mazda CX-8 GT SP FWD starts at $58,560 plus on-road costs and boasts a stylish design with a 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine. It features seven seats, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and significant safety tech. While the CX-8 isn’t the most affordable large SUV, its refined drive, spacious interior, and premium feel make it a strong contender.
