Mazda's All-New CX-5 will deliver a compelling mix of
style and space when it joins the newly-classified medium SUV
segment later this month.
The Mazda CX-5 will be the first new entrant into the
newly-classified medium SUV segment and with SUV buyers typically
requiring ample space for a wide variety of uses, Mazda has
designed the CX-5 to fit perfectly with busy lifestyles.
An overall length of 4,540mm and an overall width of 1,840mm
ensures that the CX-5 offers the right combination of passenger
comfort and luggage space.
Rear seat passengers will experience an increase in leg room of
72mm over the popular CX-7 while head room and cargo room volume
have also increased.
The footprint of the All-New CX-5 is larger than first
impressions might suggest with its overall dimensions of 8.4m2
being bigger than Australia's four best-selling compact SUVs of
2011.
These dimensions also play a big part in the CX-5s powerful and
well-proportioned stance as well as complementing the new KODO
design language.
With the CX-5 being built on an entirely new platform designed
to incorporate Mazda's new SKYACTIV Technology, smarter interior
packaging and sharp exterior design is complemented by improved
fuel efficiency and enhanced driving dynamics.
The All-New CX-5 is the first car to feature the full suite of
SKYACTIV Technology which includes new petrol and diesel engines,
new manual and automatic transmissions, lighter chassis and a
stronger body.
Available in either Front-Wheel Drive or All-Wheel Drive, the
new CX-5 range will provide the right alternative whether it's for
city driving or weekends away in the country.
