Mazda introduces raft of updates to CX-5
Updates have been applied across the board for the CX-5
Mazda has given its largest SUV – the CX-5 – a lift with the introduction of a new engine option as well as a range of interior upgrades.
Available to order now, the CX-5 can now be selected with Mazda’s 2.5-litre Skyactiv-G petrol engine, which brings 191bhp, an automatic gearbox and all-wheel-drive. The engine also incorporates cylinder deactivation, allowing it to switch between four- and two-cylinders for improved fuel economy when at a cruise.

Mazda is now accepting orders for the 2021 CX-5 in the United Kingdom (and mainland Europe), where the updated compact SUV has officially launched and is on its way to dealers.
‘Borrowed’ from the Mazda6, the new 194 PS (191 HP / 143 kW) 2.5-liter SkyActiv-G engine has joined the family. It is available exclusively in the GT Sport trim, featuring cylinder deactivation technology and driving all four wheels through an automatic gearbox.
The 165 PS (163 HP / 121 kW) 2.0-liter SkyActiv-G is available across the range, with manual (includes cylinder deactivation tech) and automatic transmissions, and has become less polluting. The 150 PS (148 HP / 110 kW) SkyActiv-D diesel is offered with FWD in the SE-L and Sport specs, and the 184 PS (181 HP / 135 kW) variant is reserved for the Sport and GT Sport grades, with the latter getting it with AWD exclusively.

Mazda Australia has released pricing and specification details for the updated Mazda6 range ahead of its launch in March, with the mid-size car getting a sporty new grade.
Replacing the previous GT grade, the GT SP (from $46,690 plus on-road costs) commands a $700 premium but adds unique 19-inch alloy wheels, which are finished in black metallic paintwork alongside the side-mirror caps to create a sportier aesthetic.
Inside, the GT SP stands out from the Mazda6 crowd with burgundy leather upholstery, red stitching and bright trim as well as heated front and rear seats.
The GT SP also features fresh ‘Turbo’ badging alongside the flagship Atenza grade, which now costs $200 more, just like the mid-range Touring grade. Meanwhile, the entry-level Sport grade is $100 dearer.
