Mazda CX-5 2013 ANNIVERSARY Special Model

Mazda CX-5 2013 ANNIVERSARY

It's been a year since the Mazda CX-5 crossover released in Japan since February 2013 and thanks to its 2.2L SKYACTIV-D clean diesel engine, it became the best fuel efficient crossover Mazda has ever made without sacrificing its fun to drive factor. Annoyingly, it was now a Top Gear favorite ever since a race between this and the VW Tiguan at the caravanners' site, carrying caravans. The sheer power of the diesel engine really did destroyed the caravan it was carrying.

For the 2014 model year, the CX-5 adds the 2.5L SKYACTIV-G gasoline engine from the new Atenza. It produces 188PS of power, 250Nm of torque, and yes, mated with the SKYACTIV-DRIVE 6-speed double clutch Automatic Gearbox, which is the only transmission available on the CX-5. This will be equipped on the newer 25S and 25S L Package grades for the CX-5 in late October 2013.

Also, Mazda featured a special edition "2013 ANNIVERSARY" model to commemorate its 1st year and for the special edition model, you can have either the 2.5L petrol or the 2.2L diesel engine but the special model features special equipment such as Off White Leather Seats, Door Trim, Red paneling on the dashboard, red stitching on the shift lever and steering wheel, 10-way power seats, 19-inch aluminum wheels, and a serial number plate.
