Mazda CX-30 Nama Mazda CX-30 terasa sedikit janggal, kerana SUV segmen C ini diletakkan diantara CX-3 (segmen B) dan CX-5 (segmen C). Patut ia dipanggil CX-4, betul tak? Namun atas sebab tidak mahu menimbulkan rasa kecelaruan di antara CX-4 yang wujud sebagai model berbeza yang dijual khas di negara China sahaja (berasaskan model CX-5 sebelumnya), Mazda rasa perlu untuk memberi nama yang lain. Mazda CX-30 yang anda lihat di sini adalah antara produk global terbaru Mazda. Dilancarkan pada bulan J

Mazda recently introduced a new 2.5-litre turbo variant for the 2019 Mazda CX-5. On paper, it packs the most firepower of any C-segment SUV but we want to see if this is true in the real world. The Mazda CX-5 2.5 Turbo AWD sold in Malaysia is powered by a 2.5-litre turbocharged direct-injection 4-cylinder petrol engine paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission. The SkyActiv-G turbo engine pushes out 230 PS and 420 Nm of torque. Power is channelled to all four wheels via the permanent all-wheel

The Mazda CX-5 is one of our favourite crossovers here in the WapCar office. We like the premium quality and performance of the turbocharged 2.5-litre Skyactiv-G engine. While it has a handsome style, Mazda reckons it's time it should get some upgrades. That is, if you’re living the United States of America as the 2021 Mazda CX-5 is given a few new upgrades which includes a new 10.25-inch infotainment screen. The centre display is the largest ever put on the CX-5, easily trumping the current CX-

Bermaz Motor has introduced an option to the 2021 Mazda CX-5 with a larger 8-inch infotainment screen, on top of the standard 7-inch unit. The option costs RM 1,000. Unlike the newer systems in the Mazda 3 and CX-30, the 8-inch infotainment screen still runs on an older generation MZD Connect system as in the smaller 7-inch screen. So the difference here is mainly the larger screen estate and reduced bezels. Note that this is not the running change seen in other countries such as the US, where t
