Mazda Enters The SUV Market With CX-5

The all-new Mazda CX-5 is Mazdas first attempt in the compact SUV market, but this isnt just any ordinary SUV. Mazda has embedded the CX-5 with SkyActiv technology, which is Mazdas term for its collection performance-enhancing and environmentally friendly features. The CX-5 is a completely new car and nothing has been carried over from previous models. The initial CX-5 line-up includes a 2.0-litre petrol engine with a power output of 165ps and a 2.2-litre diesel with power outputs of 150ps and 175ps.There is a choice of manual an automatic gearboxes as well as 2WD or 4WD, and you can select one of four equipment levels. The boot has a 503-litre capacity but drop the rear seats and the capacity increases to a massive 1,620 liters.

The CX-5s new 6-speed gearbox increases its driving comfort. Mazda is proud of its MX-5 gearbox and wanted the CX-5 is fitted with same gearbox. As a result, the CX-5 has a 45mm throw that feels more but not exactly like the MX-5s. Mazda claims that its new thinking and modern approach to gearbox engineering has resulted in a "box with a reduced number of moving parts, a 3Kg weight reduction and a one per cent increase in fuel economy".

The new CX-5 is fitted with a superb new feature called Smart City Brake Support (SCBS), which helps avoid low-speed collisions if youre momentarily distracted. SCBS works up to 19mph, and even though it wont prevent every low-speed collision, it will decrease the consequences. Its a great safety feature that works as a backup but not something drivers can rely on. These days no car is complete without gadgetry and in-car entertainment, and the CX-5 has that area covered as well. There are number of controls on the wheels for the in-car entertainment, cruise control and telephony systems. The main focus of the in-car entertainment, navigation and telephony systems is the 5.8in touch screen.

CX-5s SatNav system is powered by TomTom technology, and it is very impressive. The Mazda CX-5 is available now from 21,395 on the road for the 2.0-litre 165ps 2WD manual version, which includes 17in alloys, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror, front and rear parking sensors, privacy glass, SCBS and the touchscreen interface. Mazda is heavily promoting its new SkyActiv technology. One such SkyActiv technology is i-stop, which cuts the engine when youre stationary. It cuts noise and pollution when driving around town, in addition to increasing fuel economy.
