Car buyers differ in the things they consider in looking for a car. Some look for luxury, others for economy. Some look for comfy ones, while others for sporty. Some look for one because they need it, while others look for one because they want it or they want something to flaunt.

Whatever their reason is, the car manufacturers cannot do anything to force them to buy their products. The manufacturers can only persuade. That is why they do intensive enhancements innovations, advertising and different marketing strategies.

And because of the very wide variety of human preferences, manufacturers of auto mobiles see to it that they could really give what their customer would prefer. From minivans to trucks up to super high technology cars; name it, they all have it!

Mazda is one of those manufacturers of vehicles that are well known for its excellent performing sedans and wagons that are fun to drive, really sporty sports car, and great performing models such as the SP and the MPS.

This is the reason why driving fans anticipated similar characteristics when Mazda unleashed its CX-7 ‘crossover' SUV.

With top of the line sporty and safety features, the CX-7 comes with excellent wheels, a really sporty physical appearance, and a well polished roof line that does not negatively affect the head room of the passengers as well as the area for the pieces of luggage.

As to its driving, the CX-7 SUV smoothly corners and turns even at a high speed. The steering is also excellent as the vehicle's speed on the road increases. In effect, these characteristics yield fun, great, and exciting handling and driving experience.

This vehicle does not anymore use the V6 power engine. Rather, it now uses an inter-cooled 2.3 liter four-cylinder engine that gives more power and torque as compared to the previous engine. It has a maximum torque of 350Nm at a low 2500rpm, and 174kW at 5000rpm. This powerful engine is available for the Mazda6 MPS.

This engine is differentiated from the MPS version because a new turbo is used. And as a result, this improves regulated response at low revolutions and reduces turbo lag.

In the one-specification CX-7, a six-speed ‘Activematic' automatic transmission comes standard. For manual lovers, this transmission suits you because it has a manual mode.

The new Mazda vehicle has Active Torque-Split all-wheel drive. This sends driving to the front wheels and will stop when the computer detects a loss of traction. In this case, the available torque that is sent to the wheels in the rear is up to 50 percent.

Anyone riding in this vehicle will experience a firm, but not hard, ride. Yes, you may hear some noise on the road while driving this car but no need to worry because it is manageable.

Though the rear seat base is not quite spacious, the car has sufficient leg, head and knee room for three persons at the back.

This new Mazda SUV costs $48,995, but you can be assured of the things you want for sporty SUV. At this price, standard features include six air bags, ABS, dynamic stability control and traction control on the safety front for safety purposes, an excellent 222-watt nine-speaker Bose audio to further soothe the ambience, and leather upholstery for further convenient and comfort.


About Mazda Motor Corporation

A Japanese auto mobile manufacturer, Mazda Motor Corporation is based in Hiroshima, Japan. With sales divided among Japan, Europe and North America, the company is expected to manufacture 1.25 million vehicles per annum. Thirty three point four (33.4) percent of the company is owned according to controlling interest by Ford Motor Company.

The company's name is derived from the transcendental God of Zoroastrianism, Ahura Mazda. It is also believed that Mazda coincides with the anglicized pronunciation of Zoroastrianism founder's name, Jujiro Matsuda, and opted to rename it in honor of both his family and the believers of Zoroastrianism. In the Avestan language, Mazda means "wisdom". Nonetheless, because the company is from Japan, the name has always been pronounced and spelled as "Matsuda". This leads the public to believe that "Mazda" is just an anglicized version of the founder.

Mazda Motor Corporation is the maker of quality Mazda air intake hose.
