Mazda CX-5
Upon creating the CX-5, Mazda rethought the compact SUV concept down to the smallest bolt. First 100% SKYACTIV product, the CX-5 offers a spirited driving experience along with remarkable fuel economy. Available in front- (GX, GS) or all-wheeldrive (opt. GX & GS, std. GT), all versions feature the 2.0 litre SKY-G engine under the hood and a six-speed gearbox, manual (GX only) or automatic. The latter is mandatory with the all-wheel-drive drivetrain, but is well adapted to this fun-to-drive compact SUV.
