The all-new 2013 Mazda CX-5 was recently announced as one of WardsAuto‘s 10 Best Interiors. A newcomer to the compact crossover SUV segment, CX-5 boasts the best highway fuel economy – even against hybrids – of any SUV sold in North America at 35 miles per gallon (mpg). It showcases SKYACTIV Technology and Mazda’s innovative engineering philosophy on fuel-saving technologies.
“To separate itself from the competition, the 2013 CX-5 had to offer not just the same features and options as other compact crossover SUVs, but be better, stronger, and smarter than those other offerings,” said Jim O’Sullivan, president and CEO, Mazda North American Operations (MNAO). “For CX-5 to be honored with such a distinct award is a testament to Mazda’s passionate attention to every detail – from dynamics and engineering to safety and design.”
Mazda Motor Corporation has decided to extend production of the Mazda RX-8 SPIRIT R by 1,000 units. Mazda initially intended to make 1,000 units of the special edition four-door, four-seat rotary engine sports car, but will extend production due to a large number of orders.
Mazda’s TAKERI Concept made its North American debut at the 2012 New York International Auto Show, and is the brand’s first concept vehicle to feature the SKYACTIV-D clean diesel engine as well as other revolutionary Mazda-developed, fuel-saving technologies such as i-stop, a stop-start system, and i-ELOOP, a regenerative braking system.
With more cars being road-raced than any other brand, Mazda racks up wins almost every weekend of the year. MAZDASPEED Motorsports represents both a commitment to quality, durability and reliability as well as a sincere desire to help aspiring racers advance their career.
