Introduced at the ongoing Los Angeles Auto Show, the 2014 Mazda CX-5 will arrive at Canadian dealerships this January with GX, GS and GT trim levels.
Powered by a standard 2.0L SKYACTIV-G gasoline engine, the compact crossover produces 155 horsepower while achieving fuel consumption ratings of 7.8L/100km (city) and 5.7L/100km (highway) when mated to a six-speed manual transmission, or 7.7 and 6.1 with the optional autobox.
Of course, the big news is that the GS and GT models will both be available with a new 2.5L SKYACTIV-G engine rated at 184 horsepower. Here, fuel consumption amounts to 8.3L/100km (city) and 6.2L/100km (highway); adding all-wheel drive results in 8.5 and 6.6, respectively.
Note that a 2.2L SKYACTIV-D diesel engine has been announced for the U.S. but not yet for Canada.
Inside the driver-centric cabin of the 2014 Mazda CX-5, you'll find easy-to-read displays and many at-hand controls. A race-inspired, three-spoke steering wheel emphasizes the vehicle's sporty character. In the back, cargo capacity increases from 966 litres to 1,835 (GX) or 1,852 (GS, GT) litres with the rear seats folded.
Stay tuned for further details and pricing.
