RICHMOND HILL, ON, Nov. 30, 2021 /CNW/ - Mazda Canada Inc. (MCI) recently announced significant enhancements to the Mazda CX-5. These thoughtful updates elevate the vehicle's elegant design and further refine the engaging driving experience, which all help improve upon the crossover SUV's appeal. In addition, all 2022 CX-5 models will have standard i-Activ all-wheel drive in Canada when they arrive in retailers nationwide this winter.

The CX-5 is an important vehicle for Mazda and has earned high praise by many, which has helped it become the brand's best-selling vehicle in Canada. By providing measured updates to the CX-5, Mazda is focused on deepening the bond with its owners who have strong values in design, driving dynamics and safety. In receiving enhancements based on Mazda's latest generation Kodo design ethos, the CX-5 is ensuring it will continue to attract customers alongside new Mazda vehicles for years to come. Mazda designers focused on refining the front and rear ends, opting to minimize character lines in favor of reflective body surfaces that create a distinguished and elegant appearance. The front adopts a new bumper and new signature wing that extends outward from the front grille, which is also updated with a three-dimensional texture. The rear features new bumper and tailgate designs that are complemented by larger dual tailpipes. The headlights and taillights receive significant design changes with each lamp featuring a pair of horizontally spaced, rectangular LED lights that create a sleek, eye-catching expression.

Complementing the elegant design, the driving dynamics and ride quality of the 2022 CX-5 have evolved with updates to the seats, body, and suspension that were previously introduced in Mazda's recent vehicles. The seats are redesigned to help provide the driver and the vehicle's occupants with greater stability to help create a natural and comfortable experience. The driver will appreciate smooth acceleration with a more responsive six-speed automatic transmission. Updates to the suspension include improvements to the dampening control structure and increased frame rigidity, which will help suppress unpleasant vibrations and reduce road noise to help provide a quieter cabin and higher quality of ride comfort. Overall, these enhancements will help the driver feel more connected to the enjoyable driving experience.
