Date: 2017-10-06

The new Mazda CX-5 introduces SKYACTIV Technology and KODO Soul of Motion styling. Fully redesigned, the all-new Mazda CX-5 crossover SUV refines every element of Mazda's design and technology; raising the bar for the line-up's combination of fuel efficiency, driving fun, award-winning looks and top-class safety.

The interior's cabin insulation, windshield projected head-up display, improved seats and advanced ergonomics throughout, give a more cultured and intuitive "heads-up" cabin that prioritizes driver and passenger comfort. This crossover SUV adds a new dimension to Mazda's human-centric philosophy; extending the driver-and-car-as-one Jinba-Ittai sensation offering to all occupants. It also adopts the first of the SKYACTIV-VEHICLE DYNAMICS vehicle motion control technologies; G-Vectoring Control. This innovative software-based system controls body roll for better handling, while suspension and powertrain improvements facilitate superior ride quality.

The CX-5 powertrain lineup comprises of three engine options that offer powerful, linear driving performance and outstanding environmental performance; SKYACTIV-G 2.0L and 2.5L petrol as well as the SKYACTIV-D 2.2L diesel engines.
