Considerably revised and improved last year, Mazda's midsize sedan stands out with a cylinder deactivation system that helps the base 2.0-litre engine save even more fuel, as well as a new 2.5-litre turbo engine producing up to 250 horsepower (similar to the CX-9) for an extra dose of performance. Let’s not forget the top-of-the-line Signature version, whose interior is filled with authentic materials inspired from traditional Japanese architecture and crafts.
