Mazda Price Malaysia 2026: CX-5 from RM 134,469, CX-30 RM 128,409, Mazda 3 RM 119,620 (October 2025 Price Cuts)

Mazda is Malaysia's premium-positioned Japanese brand, distributed by Bermaz Auto Berhad (KLSE: 5248) with CKD assembly at Inokom Kulim, Kedah since 2011. The 2026 lineup spans 8 model families: Mazda 3 sedan and liftback, CX-3, CX-30, CX-5, CX-8, CX-60, CX-80 PHEV, and the MX-5 RF roadster. Prices run from RM 119,620 (Mazda 3 1.5L High Plus) to RM 296,610 (CX-80 2.5 PHEV AWD), reflecting Bermaz's October 2025 price revision that cut RM 3,000 to RM 35,000 across the SUV range. The Mazda 2, Mazda 6, CX-9, and BT-50 have left the lineup. The brand's design DNA, Skyactiv platform engineering, and Kodo "Soul of Motion" styling place it as the closest Japanese rival to European chassis dynamics inside the sub-RM 200k segment.

Mazda Price List Malaysia 2026 (All Models)

Prices are OTR excluding insurance, valid June 2026, after the October 2025 Bermaz price revision. Volume SUVs (CX-30, CX-5, CX-8) are CKD at Inokom Kulim, Kedah. The Mazda 3 (Japan), CX-3 (Thailand), CX-60, CX-80 PHEV, and MX-5 RF are fully imported.

Mazda CX-5: The Bestseller Since 2017

The CX-5 has been Mazda Malaysia's volume model and bestselling SUV since 2017. Bermaz cut RM 10,000 off every variant in October 2025, and the 2026-model 2.0G High gained a 12.3-inch touchscreen, dashcam, and body-coloured cladding at no extra cost. Five variants are sold in 2026:

• CX-5 2.0G Mid (FWD): RM 134,469 OTR, 2.0L Skyactiv-G NA (165 PS / 213 Nm), 6-speed AT; leather seat option RM 2,900
• CX-5 2.0G High (FWD): RM 151,469 OTR, same 2.0L NA, plus the 2026 12.3-inch screen and accessories package
• CX-5 2.5G High (FWD): RM 164,960 OTR, 2.5L Skyactiv-G NA, 6-speed AT
• CX-5 2.2D High (FWD): RM 170,323 OTR, 2.2L Skyactiv-D turbodiesel, the long-distance pick
• CX-5 2.5T High AWD: RM 178,760 OTR, 2.5L Skyactiv-G Turbo (230 PS / 420 Nm on RON 95), 6-speed AT

The CX-5 cross-shops the Honda CR-V (RM 159,900–195,900), Toyota RAV4 (RM 196,962–233,900), and Hyundai Tucson (RM 145,888–183,888); after the October 2025 cut the entry CX-5 undercuts the entry CR-V by RM 25,000. The 2.5T's 420 Nm of torque is segment-leading and matches BMW X3 30i territory at less than half the price. The third-generation CX-5 opened for booking on 12 June 2026 at KLIMS, estimated from RM 170,000 as a CBU 2.5L; it will sell alongside this CKD lineup, with local assembly following 12 to 16 months after launch.

Mazda CX-30: The B+ Crossover

The CX-30 occupies the gap between the smaller CX-3 and larger CX-5, targeted at urban buyers wanting Skyactiv dynamics with a smaller footprint than the CX-5. Bermaz trimmed RM 3,000 to RM 5,000 off the range in October 2025. Four variants in 2026, all on the 2.0L Skyactiv-G (165 PS / 213 Nm) with 6-speed AT:

• CX-30 2.0 Base: RM 128,409 OTR
• CX-30 2.0 High: RM 134,409 OTR
• CX-30 2.0 High Plus: RM 144,409 OTR
• CX-30 2.0 High Plus Premium: RM 154,409 OTR

The CX-30 cross-shops the Honda HR-V (RM 115,900–144,900), Toyota Corolla Cross (RM 132,000–146,000), and Hyundai Kona (RM 119,888–143,888). At RM 128,409 entry the CX-30 now sits inside the segment's price band rather than above it, while its Skyactiv-Vehicle Architecture chassis, premium interior trim, and Mazda's design pedigree carry the premium feel for design-conscious buyers.

Mazda 3 Sedan and Hatchback: The C-Segment Driver's Choice

The Mazda 3 is the only C-segment sedan-and-hatchback pair in Malaysia that competes with the Toyota Corolla Altis and Honda Civic on driver engagement rather than rear-seat space. The whole range is CBU from Japan; Mazda Malaysia calls the hatchback body the Liftback. Three variants:

• Mazda 3 1.5L High Plus (Sedan or Liftback): RM 119,620 OTR, 1.5L Skyactiv-G NA, 6-speed AT; launched November 2025 with near-identical kit to the 2.0L at RM 46,439 less
• Mazda 3 2.0L High Plus (Sedan or Liftback): RM 166,059 OTR, 2.0L Skyactiv-G NA (165 PS / 213 Nm), 6-speed AT
• Mazda 3 2.0L Ignite Edition (Liftback): RM 174,000 OTR, the only variant with front cross traffic alert standard

The 1.5L High Plus undercuts the Honda Civic 1.5 V Turbo (RM 158,900) by RM 39,280 and turned the Mazda 3 from a premium-priced C-segment into the cheapest new Mazda on sale. The 2.0L High Plus prices above the Civic and sells on chassis feel instead. All Mazda 3 variants share the Skyactiv-Vehicle Architecture chassis with the CX-30 (same wheelbase 2,725 mm), which makes it one of the better-handling C-segments sold new in Malaysia in 2026.

Mazda CX-8: The 6/7-Seat Family SUV

The CX-8 is Mazda Malaysia's 3-row 6 or 7-seater, positioned between the CX-5 (5-seat) and the CX-80 PHEV flagship. Bermaz cut RM 20,000 off the volume variants in October 2025. Five variants:

• CX-8 2.5 Mid: RM 165,360 OTR, 2.5L Skyactiv-G NA, 6-speed AT
• CX-8 2.5 High: RM 171,360 OTR
• CX-8 2.5 High Plus: RM 186,360 OTR
• CX-8 2.2D High Plus: RM 213,123 OTR, 2.2L Skyactiv-D turbodiesel
• CX-8 2.5T High Plus AWD: RM 221,360 OTR, 2.5L Turbo

The CX-8 cross-shops the Toyota Innova Zenix Hybrid (RM 165,000–185,000), Honda BR-V (RM 91,900–112,900, significantly cheaper but smaller), and Hyundai Santa Fe (RM 215,000–245,000). After the cut, the entry CX-8 matches the Innova Zenix on price while offering the second-row captain-seat option that is the closest Mazda alternative to Toyota Alphard interior packaging at a fraction of the cost.

Mazda CX-60: The RWD-Biased Driver's SUV

The CX-60 is Mazda's first vehicle in Malaysia on the new Large Architecture, a longitudinal rear-wheel-drive-biased platform also shared with the CX-80. Two variants, both CBU from Japan:

• CX-60 2.5 High 2WD: RM 200,510 OTR, 2.5L Skyactiv-G NA, 8-speed AT
• CX-60 3.3G AWD: RM 252,000 OTR, 3.3L turbocharged inline-six with 48V mild hybrid (284 PS / 450 Nm), 8-speed AT; launched at KLIMS in June 2026

The 3.3G AWD brings the inline-six layout back to the sub-RM 300k bracket, where the closest six-cylinder German SUVs cost RM 100,000+ more. Mazda's Kinematic Posture Control and the longitudinal RWD-bias architecture deliver chassis behaviour closer to a BMW X3 than to any Toyota or Honda SUV. For driver-focused buyers who skip the badge tax, the CX-60 is the rational pick.

Mazda CX-80 PHEV: The 3-Row Flagship

The CX-80 is Mazda Malaysia's largest vehicle and the flagship of the Large Architecture platform. Sole Malaysia variant:

• CX-80 2.5 PHEV AWD: RM 296,610 OTR, 2.5L Skyactiv-G PHEV system (327 PS combined), 8-speed AT, 3-row seating, AWD standard. Bermaz cut its price by RM 35,000 in October 2025, from RM 331,610.

The CX-80 cross-shops the BMW X3 30e (RM 320,000+), Volvo XC60 Recharge T8 (RM 360,000+), and Mercedes-Benz GLC 300e (RM 388,000+), undercutting all three while being the only one with a third row. For a driver-focused family PHEV under RM 300k it has no direct rival in Malaysia. CBU from Hiroshima.

Mazda MX-5 RF: The Lightest RWD Convertible Sold New in Malaysia

The MX-5 RF (Retractable Fastback) is Mazda Malaysia's halo sports car. Sole variant:

• MX-5 RF 2.0 Manual: RM 293,000 OTR, 2.0L NA (184 PS / 205 Nm), 6-speed manual, kerb weight 1,103 kg, 50:50 weight distribution, RWD
• MX-5 RF 2.0 Automatic: RM 295,000 OTR, same drivetrain with the 6-speed AT

The MX-5 cross-shops the Toyota GR86 (RM 295,000), Subaru BRZ (RM 273,000), and the now-discontinued Mini Cooper S Convertible (RM 320,000+). MX-5 is the lightest of the lot by ~150 kg and the only convertible in the bracket. The 6-speed manual variant is the purest drive: short throws, perfectly weighted clutch, and Mazda's Bilstein dampers tuned for response over compliance. CBU from Hiroshima, limited allocation for Malaysia.

Mazda Skyactiv: The Engineering Philosophy

Skyactiv is Mazda's portmanteau for "Sustainable Zoom-Zoom" engineering, launched in 2011. The core principles applied across the Malaysia lineup:

• High compression ratio (14:1) on NA petrol engines. The 2.0L Skyactiv-G runs 14:1 versus typical 10:1–11:1 industry standard, delivering higher thermal efficiency without forced induction. Trade-off is RON 95 minimum and slight knock sensitivity at high ambient temperatures (relevant in Malaysian climate)
• Skyactiv-Vehicle Architecture. The platform shared between Mazda 3, CX-30, and CX-50 prioritises stiffness and damping over weight reduction, which produces the segment-best handling at the cost of a marginally heavier kerb
• Skyactiv-X (not in Malaysia). The compression-ignition petrol engine sold in Europe and Japan has not been federalised for Malaysia due to fuel quality variance

Bermaz Auto + Inokom Kulim: 15 Years of CKD Mazda

Mazda's Malaysia CKD partnership runs through Bermaz Auto Berhad (the official distributor and the listed entity on Bursa Malaysia: 5248) and Inokom Corporation (the assembly partner at Kulim, Kedah). The partnership has run since 2011, predating the BMW Kulim CKD operation by 2 years and matching the Naza-Kia Kulim line.

Inokom Kulim currently assembles the CX-30, CX-5, and CX-8 for Malaysia and limited export. The CBU side of the lineup comprises the Mazda 3 (Japan), CX-3 (Thailand), CX-60, CX-80 PHEV, and MX-5 RF (Hiroshima). The CKD share of volume sales is what keeps Mazda inside the EEV framework and shielded from the 2026 CBU duty increases that affected BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, and Polestar. The incoming third-generation CX-5 starts as CBU and moves to Inokom CKD 12 to 16 months after launch.

Mazda Warranty Malaysia 2026

Bermaz Auto's standard warranty cover for new Mazda vehicles:

• Free service: 5 years or 100,000 km on labour for CKD models (CX-5, CX-30, CX-8); 3 years on CBU models

Mazda vs Honda vs Toyota Malaysia: Which Premium Japanese Brand?

Mazda, Honda, and Toyota are the three premium-positioned Japanese brands in the sub-RM 200k segment. Positioning differs:

Mazda wins on design and chassis. Honda wins on hybrid availability and resale. Toyota wins on service network and Alphard-tier flagship cover. For driver-first sub-RM 200k buyers who keep cars 5+ years, Mazda is the rational pick.

FAQ: Mazda Specific Questions

Is Bermaz Auto a good stock to own?

Bermaz Auto Berhad (KLSE: 5248) is the listed entity behind Mazda Malaysia (and the Kia Malaysia, Peugeot Malaysia franchises until 2023). The stock is followed by retail and institutional investors as a proxy for Malaysia premium auto demand. Dividend yield has historically averaged 5–8%, supported by Mazda margins on CKD volume. Not investment advice; check the Bursa Malaysia disclosure portal for current financials.

Does Mazda Malaysia still sell Skyactiv-D diesel?

Yes. The Skyactiv-D 2.2L turbodiesel remains on sale in two models: the CX-5 2.2D High at RM 170,323 and the CX-8 2.2D High Plus at RM 213,123. The CX-5 diesel finally received the same RM 10,000 reduction as the petrol variants in the 2026 model-year update. The diesel makes financial sense for drivers covering 25,000+ km per year, where its torque and fuel economy offset the higher purchase price.

Is the Mazda CX-50 coming to Malaysia?

The Mazda CX-50 is a North America–first model and is not scheduled for Malaysia introduction. The CX-30 and CX-5 cover the segments the CX-50 would target locally. The next major Malaysia launch is the third-generation CX-5, previewed at KLIMS 2026 with bookings open from 12 June 2026 at an estimated RM 170,000, arriving CBU in Q3 2026 with CKD assembly to follow.

Mazda Malaysia's 2026 lineup, anchored by the Skyactiv-engineered CX-5 from RM 134,469 and the halo MX-5 RF at RM 293,000, sits as the closest Japanese brand to European chassis dynamics inside the sub-RM 200k segment. Use the table above to compare variants, check the Mazda loan calculator for monthly payments, and review the full Malaysia car price list for cross-shopping against Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, and Hyundai Tucson.
