Mazda Australia has revealed today through the latest car news the pricing and specs for the modern new look Mazda Ute! The new Mazda BT-50 will be available in Australia by the end of the year and it is looking promising.

Even though the new Mazda BT-50 will produce less power, it will still preserve its 3,500kg towing capacity and 1,000kg payload in the back of this new Ute.
