2025 Mazda BT-50 SP TF Auto 4x4 Dual Cab

The 2025 Mazda BT-50 SP is a premium dual-cab ute that combines everyday usability with the hardware needed for towing, touring and off-road travel. Finished in Concrete Grey, this new 4x4 is powered by a 3.0-litre intercooled turbo-diesel engine producing 140kW and 450Nm, with drive sent through a six-speed automatic transmission. The result is a practical and substantial workhorse that retains the comfort and presentation expected of a well-equipped passenger vehicle.

Its selectable 4x4 system is supported by a locking rear differential and Rough Terrain Mode, giving the BT-50 a broader range of capability when surfaces become uneven or slippery. Hill Descent Control, Hill Launch Assist and Trailer Sway Control add useful assistance in demanding conditions, while the stated 3,500kg braked towing capacity makes this configuration well suited to handling substantial trailers when correctly equipped. A factory tow bar with receiver, tongue and wiring harness is included, and the tailgate incorporates assist functionality for easier loading and unloading.

The SP grade gives the BT-50 a distinctive visual identity without compromising its working purpose. Gloss-black 18-inch alloy wheels, side steps, fender flares, roof rails, exterior mirrors, door handles and tailgate handles create a cohesive finish, while the gloss-black sail-plane sports bar adds presence around the tub. A manual roller tonneau cover and tub liner provide practical protection for cargo, helping the ute transition between work duties, recreational equipment and general day-to-day carrying tasks.

Inside, the cabin moves beyond a purely utilitarian layout with Black and Terracotta Maztex/Suede seat trim, heated front seats and an eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat. Dual-zone climate control with rear air vents helps maintain a comfortable environment for all five occupants. Keyless entry, push-button start and remote engine start add convenience, while the leather-wrapped steering wheel and auto-dimming rear-view mirror contribute to a more refined driving experience.

Technology is centred on a nine-inch full-colour touchscreen with satellite navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto. An eight-speaker stereo provides the audio system, while front and rear parking sensors, a reversing camera and power-folding exterior mirrors assist with manoeuvring a vehicle of this size. LED headlights, signature LED daytime running lights and LED front fog lamps provide a modern lighting signature.

Safety equipment includes intelligent adaptive cruise control with Stop and Go, autonomous emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert and braking, lane-keep assist, lane-departure warning, emergency lane keeping, traffic-sign recognition, driver-attention assist and automatic high beam. A five-star ANCAP safety rating is listed for this vehicle. With five seats, a 76-litre fuel tank and an official fuel-consumption figure of 8L/100km, the BT-50 SP presents a well-rounded balance of long-distance practicality, passenger comfort and four-wheel-drive capability.
