Mazda CX-7
For 2010, we are treated to a tweaked version of the CX-7. Slight cosmetic modifications to the front section seem to rejuvenate it. Its crossover vehicle-like silhouette is still very popular and its big ground clearance gives it a slightly macho air. But the major difference for 2010 is the new engine that powers the CX-7. It’s an atmospheric 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine which is less thirsty. The powerful 2,3 litre direct injection engine is still offered on the top of the line version.
