Next-Gen Mazda CX-5

The goal for the Next-Gen Mazda CX-5 was to create a simple yet elegant form. Aiming for a unique design only Mazda could produce, the development team focused on a Japanese aesthetic. Efforts focused on creating a bold, tough look that further enhances the distinct personality and dynamic air of the previous model. The Next-Gen Mazda CX-5 is given proportions that lowers its centre of gravity and conveys the image of the entire body firmly gripping the road. Concerted efforts to adjust every detail of the positioning and characteristics of the peaks have created an elegant form with strong appeal. To maximise this effect, Mazda developed the new Soul Red Crystal Metallic body colour.

For the Next-Gen Mazda CX-5, every aspect of performance was focused on to provide not only the driver, but also passengers, with a truly pleasing experience. The efforts, including refinements to the powertrain and handling, ride comfort, and quietness, achieve lively and enjoyable performance, as well as comfort for all cabin occupants. Human-centred design provides all cabin occupants with greater comfort. Mazda applied every aspect of the human-centred design on the Next-Gen Mazda CX-5 to further polish the acclaimed packaging of the current model. The result is cabin comfort that makes driving a delight for all cabin occupants.

The designs of the seats and decorative parts that comprise the interior aims to deliver forms that blend SUV toughness with fine quality. The same colour, grain, luster and stitching are used for the upper portion of all interior materials, from the instrument panel through to the rear door trim. In addition, the intentional use of thick thread and somewhat coarse stitching expresses quality. Efforts to completely eliminate gaps and height differences between parting lines throughout the interior help fine craftsmanship and the attention to detail that embody the intent of the interior design.
