Mazda CX-5 
The CX-5 emphasizes refinement and driving excitement, particularly with its G-Vectoring Control system, to set itself apart from the competition. The lineup includes a 187-horsepower 2.5-litre unit with new cylinder deactivation technology allowing significant fuel savings anytime full power is not needed. New for this year is the optional 250 horsepower 2.5 litre turbocharged engine. Also, the CX-5 now comes standard with more i-ACTIVSENSE safety systems including smart city brake support.
