Mazda has announced that its newest SUV, the 2023 CX-50 has started rolling off the production line at Mazda’s new Huntsville, Alabama plant. The new plant is the result of a $2.3 billion partnership between Mazda and Toyota.
[ngg src=”galleries” ids=”138″ display=”pro_horizontal_filmstrip”]The plant started building vehicles in September 2021 and it will be able to produce 300,000 vehicles annually. This means that Mazda plans to build at least 150,000 CX-50 SUVs a year. Toyota is building the Corolla Cross at the same plant and also plans to build 150,000 units a year.
The CX-50 is just the first of some new SUVs that Mazda is planning, which includes the new CX-70 and the CX-90, which will replace the current CX-9. The CX-5 will also continue in its lineup. Mazda hasn’t announced the pricing for the CX-50, but it will arrive this spring.
