Mazda launches third generation CX-5 SUV
Mazda has introduced the third generation of its CX-5, which marks the company’s third model to reach cumulative sales of five million units. The upgraded SUV maintains much of the visual identity of its predecessor, including the signature vertical grille and a long-nose, short-tail profile, but features several structural and aerodynamic improvements.
The new model includes an extended wheelbase that is 115mm longer, providing increased interior space, particularly for rear seat passengers who benefit from additional knee and headroom. Exterior changes include a more rounded bonnet leading edge for better aerodynamics, a slightly taller roofline, and flared guards that add 10mm to the front track and 30mm to the rear.
Interior upgrades focus on evolution rather than total reinvention. While the driver’s cockpit remains largely unchanged, the cabin features updated materials and layouts. Test models included the mid-range Touring trim with white Maztex accents and the top-spec Akera trim featuring Sport Tan leather.
