This new crossover is bigger than the CX-3, smaller than the CX-5, and seeks to attract a customer base interested in small luxury utility vehicles. We immediately notice its athletic design, enhanced with a touch of robustness thanks its dark plastic lower-body cladding. Mazda also promises a more refined cockpit, with high-quality materials for a resolutely elegant look. A Skyactiv powertrain and an available all-wheel drivetrain complete the package.
