STYLING TO CATCH THE EYE AND THE SPIRIT
Form meets function in a powerful, aggressive shape that shares the muscular curves of the high-performance Mazda RX-8. From the striking front fender, independent lower grille and sharply raked windscreen, through the sensuous curves of the body sides to the solid rear end, Mazda CX-7 is a daring statement in sporty sophistication, a genuine metropolitan hawk. It represents a refined metropolitan sensibility, with the masculinity and sense of speed of a hawk reared amid the beauty of nature.
DESIGNED TO CATCH THE EYE - AND THE SPIRIT
On the inside, Mazda CX-7 shows the same sophisticated style and sporting heritage. The driver's seat is more race-driven than SUV style, designed to match Mazda CX-7's sports performance. The meter cluster is inspired by the thoroughbred Mazda RX-8, with the meter zero markers in the six o'clock position a hallmark of a sports machine.
And Seated high in the multi-adjustable driver's seat you have a commanding view of the road around you, contributing to a feeling of safety and security. And the centre panel puts all controls in a convenient, logical position for easy operation from the driver's seat. Also you can enjoy superior entertainment on the road with the Bose(R) 9-speaker system.
UTILITY TO SATISFY YOUR LIFESTYLE
There's a full complement of handy storage spaces and cup holders, and the multi-purpose floor console between the front seats is large enough to hold most notebook computers, as well as offering an upper level bin with more storage space. Handles just inside the tailgate lower either side of the 60:40 split-folding rear seat to provide a spacious, flat luggage area, while the cargo floor panel is reversible with a hard plastic side for when you're carrying rough loads. Adding the finishing touches to what Mazda calls customer delight are high levels of craftsmanship evident everywhere in the best-in-class interior. It all adds up to a very special experience, one perfectly in tune with you and the way you live.
PERFORMANCE TO STIR THE SOUL
Enjoy a truly unique experience: the precise, nimble handling of a sports car along with all the tough reliability of a genuine SUV. At the heart of Mazda CX-7's soul-stirring performance is the MZR 2.3 DISI (Direct Injection Spark Ignition) turbo engine, delivering an awesome 175kW of power at 5000rpm. Step on the accelerator and the turbocharger and DISI force fuel directly into each cylinder for a more potent air/fuel mixture while keeping the cylinder relatively cool. The result is greater low-end torque along with better fuel efficiency to give you the best of both worlds: a more exciting, responsive drive that consumes less petrol.
Transmission is a six-speed Activematic giving you the convenience of automatic and the control of manual shifting. In either mode, six forward gears keep the engine in the sweet-spot for vivid acceleration or smooth relaxed cruising on the highway. And to put all that power firmly on the road there's active torque-split four wheel drive. Gathering inputs from an array of sensors including the ABS, wheel speed and engine sensors, the system varies torque to the front/rear wheels from 100%:0% to 50%:50%. Whether you're driving on slick, slippery roads or going for curve-hugging performance, you'll enjoy the most exciting drive of your life.
NUMEROUS SAFETY FUNCTIONS
The Mazda CX-7 is equipped with numerous safety functions to reduce the possibility of injury to occupants in the unlikely event of an accident. In particular, the newly developed curtain air bags provide further enhanced safety by protecting occupants even in roll-over accidents whereas previous curtain air bags were limited to protection in only side collisions.
