Feature Showdown

The GMC Yukon stands out with wireless charging, panoramic roof, heated front seats, ventilated seats, power tailgate and Bose audio — features our data doesn't list for the Mazda CX-60. Which feature set matters more depends on your daily routine and priorities.
Interior trim differs: the GMC Yukon gets leather upholstery while the Mazda CX-60 offers cloth. Climate control is 3-zone in the GMC Yukon and 2-zone in the Mazda CX-60.
Equipment few rivals have, on either carShowHide
Drivetrain
The GMC Yukon uses a 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 with Dynamic Fuel Management producing 313kW and 624Nm of torque, sent through a 10-speed automatic to a 4WD layout.
The Mazda CX-60 responds with a Petrol making 138kW and 250Nm, paired to a automatic driving the rear wheels. It gets to 100km/h in 7.4 seconds.
The GMC Yukon has the clear power advantage at 313kW vs 138kW. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.
Space & Comfort
The GMC Yukon measures 5,337mm long on a 3,071mm wheelbase, 597mm longer than the Mazda CX-60 at 4,740mm (2,870mm wheelbase). The longer wheelbase on the GMC Yukon generally means more rear legroom.
For towing, the GMC Yukon leads with a 3,628kg braked capacity vs 1,800kg. That 1,828kg difference matters if you regularly hitch up.
Neither U-turns in one sweep on a 7 m local street (both need a three-point turn); the Mazda CX-60's turning circle is 1.6 m tighter, 10.8 m against 12.4 m kerb to kerb. The street estimate is indicative, worked from the published turning circles.
Cost to own
At 15,000 km a year, fuel for the GMC Yukon costs about $3,648 a year (12.8 L/100km) and fuel for the Mazda CX-60 about $2,138 a year (7.5 L/100km), at $1.90 a litre and 32c a kWh. That is $1,510 a year less for the Mazda CX-60.
Warranty: 3 years / 100k km (GMC Yukon) and 5 years / Unlimited (Mazda CX-60).
Where each one leads
The GMC Yukon: more power (313kW against 138kW) and the higher braked towing limit (3,628kg against 1,800kg).
The Mazda CX-60: the lower starting price ($45,640 against $174,990), the longer warranty (5 years against 3) and lower fuel or energy costs on our assumptions ($2,138 a year against $3,648).
The Verdict
Mazda CX-60 scores higher, 75 vs 50

The biggest gaps: value (Mazda CX-60 ahead by 52 points), fuel economy (Mazda CX-60 ahead by 48 points), reliability (Mazda CX-60 ahead by 30 points). At 15,000 km a year, fuel for the Mazda CX-60 costs about $1,510 less (7.5 L/100km against 12.8 L/100km, at $1.90 a litre). Warranty: 3 years on the GMC Yukon, 5 on the Mazda CX-60.

How to read this page. Prices, specifications, ANCAP ratings, warranty, the CarSorted Score and the verdict come from our records for the grades shown, sourced from the manufacturers' Australian documents, and change when those records change; the date each was last checked is printed under the headline. Prices are recommended retail prices before on-road costs unless marked drive-away. A plug-in hybrid's fuel figure is labelled with its basis: with a full battery (the certified combined figure) or as a hybrid (battery depleted). Charging and running costs are estimates on the stated assumptions. Always confirm price and specification with the manufacturer or dealer before you buy. CarSorted does not accept payment for recommendations.
