All-new Mazda CX-5 'XD L Package'
(with Mazda's new-generation clean diesel SKYACTIV-D 2.2 engine)
The all-new CX-5 is the first model to adopt Mazda's breakthrough SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY
*1
including gasoline and diesel engines, transmissions, body and chassis,
offering a predictable and refined driving experience together with
outstanding fuel economy. Particular attention was paid to design,
dynamic performance, functionality, environmental and safety
performance, to offer customers a stylish vehicle with a predictable and
responsive driving experience, insightful features that are useful to
the customer that they can enjoy for a long time.
Takashi Yamanouchi, Mazda's Representative Director and Chairman of
the Board, President and CEO, says, "In this day and age, being
environmentally friendly is a given. We want to offer our customers
outstanding environmental and safety performance together with driving
enjoyment. To ensure that we can do so, Mazda has completely renewed all
the basic elements of the car, from the powertrain including engine and
transmission, to the body and the chassis. The first of Mazda's new
generation of products to fully incorporate our SKYACTIV TECHNOLOGY is
the CX-5. As we launch new products moving forward, Mazda will continue
to offer all customers driving enjoyment combined with outstanding
environmental and safety performance".
The all-new CX-5 has a line-up of two new-generation engines. The
model equipped with Mazda's SKYACTIV-D 2.2 clean diesel engine meets
Japan's Post New Long-Term Emissions Regulations without an expensive
NOx after-treatment device, while at the same time delivering excellent
fuel economy of 18.6km/L (JC08 mode), the highest of any SUV
*2,
and maximum torque of 420Nm, delivering powerful dynamic performance
equivalent to a 4.0L, V8 gasoline engine. The SKYACTIV-G 2.0L model,
equipped with the highly-efficient direct injection gasoline engine,
also includes for the first time Mazda's 4-2-1 exhaust system. The
driver can enjoy the linear and powerful driving sensation created by
the feeling of oneness with the car, while at the same time benefiting
from outstanding fuel economy of 16.0km/L (FWD model, JC08 mode).
Both models are subject to the Japan's tax incentives to promote
eco-cars (eco-car tax reduction program), as well as tax breaks for the
vehicle weight tax and vehicle acquisition tax incurred at time of
purchase (the SKYACTIV-D 2.2 model is tax exempt, and the SKYACTIV-G 2.0
model has a 75% tax deduction). The SKYACTIV-D 2.2 model is also
subject to the subsidies for measures designed to promote introduction
of clean energy vehicles.
In terms of design, the CX-5 is the first model to fully embody
Mazda's new design theme, KODO - SOUL of MOTION. With finely-honed
vitality and dynamism, the car's styling is reminiscent of a cheetah
about to pounce on its prey.
For the interior, Mazda's aim was to create an enjoyable space that
is comfortable for everyone in the vehicle in any situation. The
40:20:40 split fold-down seat backs and karakuri folding configuration
means that even when carrying long objects, two adults can sit
comfortably in the rear seats. This functionality is offered as a
standard feature for the XD L Package, the XD and the 20S grades. Other
items offered as standard features for all grades include the door
pockets with bottle holder to carry a one-liter bottle, and a function
to display in the rearview mirror images from the side monitor and
reverse guiding monitor to aid parking.
The CX-5 employs Mazda's new-generation SKYACTIV-BODY light weight,
highly rigid body and all model grades come with curtain and front side
airbags, Dynamic Stability Control system and Traction Control System
as standard safety equipment Smart City Brake Support (SCBS), helping to
mitigate the damage from a collision by automatically controlling brake
operation is also introduced, as an advanced safety technology
available in the CX-5. (This system is standard equipment for XD L
Package and factory installed set option for the XD and 20S model
grades.)
