Growing up playing with Trump cards taught us that the higher the spec numbers, the better one is over the other. What the novel game at that time did not tell us though, is that it is often the experience garnered from the package, as a whole, that defines its superiority. How well each component interacts to produce a solid piece of machinery makes for a lasting impression.
For the Mazda CX-5, it is the fusion between design inspired by Kodo: Soul of Motion and engineering and innovation through SKYACTIV Technology. Under the philosophy of Jinba Ittai, or horse and rider as one, the combination of all the innovations stemming from these concepts has led to what is arguably the best driving compact crossover available in the market today.
More than just an amalgamation of numbers, the CX-5 represents Mazda’s dedication to elevating the standards of comfort, refinement, drivability.
The efficiency of SKYACTIV 2.0- and 2.5-liter gasoline, as well as 2.2-liter diesel engines, combined with a highly responsive six-speed transmission, all contribute to the CX-5’s spritely on-road performance while maintaining frugality with fuel.
Traction provided by i-ACTIV All-Wheel Drive, Mazda’s predictive, on-demand traction system, provides an extra layer of driving confidence over varying road conditions. Moreover, the CX-5 provides a superior driving package with its G-Vectoring Control as it eases steering effort through smart engine power management.
And cocooned by luxurious appointments, the CX-5’s interiors provide an inviting environment insulated from the harshness of the outside world. A quiet, plush and comfortable ride accompanies every journey. Together with a complement of safety systems, Mazda makes sure every drive in its premium 5-seat crossover is a memorable one.
Check out the ongoing offers Mazda has for the CX-5. You deserve a full package that ticks all the right boxes.
