Mazda Introduces New 2017 Mazda CX-5
November 29 2016,
You can see that right away by noting the amount of changes Mazda made to its compact SUV.
A diesel engine now offered in the 2017 Mazda CX-5 in Vancouver
No question about it, there are a lot of changes that have been made to the 2017 Mazda CX-5, but the most notable is without question the addition of Mazda’s much anticipated diesel engine. Buyers in the Vancouver region have been waiting for this engine for a while now, and it will finally be available when the new CX-5 launches next month.
There isn’t a lot of information to go around about the new 2017 Mazda CX-5’s diesel powerplant, but we do know that it will be the same SKYACTIV-D 2.2-liter four-cylinder engine currently offered in certain Mazda models in Europe. Known for this reliability and refinement, this engine also offers plenty of low-end torque and impressive fuel economy numbers. The SKYACTIV-D engine will be joined with the SKYACTIV-G 2.0-liter four-cylinder offered in current GX and GS trims, and the more powerful 2.5-liter SKYACTIV-G engine which delivers 184 horsepower.
Another important addition to the 2017 Mazda CX-5 is Mazda’s all-new G-Vectoring Control system which is part of the Japanese automaker’s new SKYACTIV-VEHICLE DYNAMICS suite of technologies. The first new system to be introduced, Mazda’s G-Vectoring Control uses the engine’s torque to reduce body movements inside the cabin at both low and high speeds. The end result is a more comfortable ride that also feels more composed.
A new design both inside and out for the 2017 Mazda CX-5 in Vancouver
The new 2017 Mazda CX-5 features a refreshed design for both the interior and the exterior. Indeed, the new CX-5’s exterior KODO design now features a new grill that is inspired by the recently introduced new Mazda CX-9. There is also a new color called Soul Red Crystal, a very deep red that changes slightly depending on the viewing angle.
Inside, the 2017 Mazda CX-5 gets a new dashboard and redesigned center console which give the compact SUV a more premium and modern feel. Interior dimensions will be about the same, but passengers should benefit from added room thanks to an improved layout.
