The Modified Mazda 2

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

 

The first Mazda 2 was originally introduced in 2003. As the years went by, however, Mazda has decided to do some modifications to further improve the Mazda 2. It is for this reason that Mazda has altered the Mazda 2 to have it carry on a more definitive look. The renewed Mazda 2 is nowhere near the one that was released in 2003 as far as looks are concerned. It was able to take on a more functional design that is more in line with the modern life. Come to think of it, only four years has passed since the initial Mazda 2 was released. But although this is the case, it is not reason enough to not improve on it especially when Mazda itself realized that something can be done to bring it a notch higher. This is an attempt to up the ante.

With the modifications done on the façade of Mazda 2, the said vehicle was able to acquire a more captivating shape. As with the changes done in the Mazda 2’s looks, it has noticeable grains on the hood that stems from the radiator grill and all over the sides that creates a rather dynamic effect. It also gives the vehicle a modern feel to it. When it comes to the powertrain, rumor has it that three engines will be made available for the Mazda 2. These are the 1.3 liter that can produce 75 horsepower and two 1.5 liter of 84 and 103 horsepower. Apart from these three engines, a fourth engine is rumored to follow shortly. This is the gas turbo unit of 1.4 liter.

At the time of the Mazda 2’s launching, two engines will be available. These are the 1.300 cc of 75 and 84hp as well as the 1500 cc of 103 hp. These two engines are both characterized with pioneering technical solutions. This is the reason why these engines can guarantee a considerable reduction when it comes to fuel consumption. Basing from the estimates, the 1.3 cc consumers something around 5.4 liters of fuel for every 100 km run. Not bad.

When infomotori.co.uk tested the Mazda 2 with the 1.5 engine, it was able to have a horsepower output of 104 hp. Apart from this, the general quality of the vehicle was rated to be very good and of high quality. The main feature came from the exceptional powertrain. It was able to satisfy quite well the taste of those who judged it.

On the Mazda 5

Tuesday, November 6th, 2007

As Mazda is being encouraged more and more by Ford to improve on its reputation and sales, Mazda is now exerting extra effort in order to put itself a notch higher than where is actually is. Among their efforts, the one on the limelight nowadays is the Mazda 5. It is a small minivan but features a rather roomy interior. From the outside, one may not think that the Mazda 5 possesses this much space in the inside for it has seemingly small outside dimensions. As proof of its spacey-ness, it can conveniently carry six people. Even though it carries six people, these passengers can comfortably stretch every once in a while and they have ample room to move and relax.

 

It has heated front seats. These are, in reality, leather “captain’s chairs.” When it comes to the driver’s seat, its height can be adjusted to suit the driver. This enables the driver to be more comfortable since he or she could adjust the seat in the best position to compliment his or her size. As for the second row of the Mazda 5, it also features “captain’s chairs.” It has sliding doors that not only saves space—say, you can park close to a vehicle since there is no allowance needed for the door. One can conveniently open and close it without needing so much space. It also makes way for easy entry and exit of the vehicle. In other words, easy access.

It has power moonroof that enables one to see what’s above the vehicle. One can look at the sky or open the moonroof to let the sunlight in when one wants to read or something. When it comes to the Mazda 5’s rear part, it has a hatch that easily opens. When opened, it discloses the luggage space. According to some owners of the Mazda 5, the vehicle’s rigid body gives a rather European feel and air to it. One of the best features of the vehicle is that it has been altered from being sports-oriented to a family one.

On the dash, one will notice that it has analog gauges. These gauges monitor the 2.3 L and the 153 horsepower of the vehicle. Aside from this, the vehicle is furnished with storage nooks, cup holders for convenience, four-wheel disc anti-lock brakes, emergency brake assist, xenon headlights, electronic brake force as well as a burglar alarm.

More on the Mazda CX-7

Monday, November 5th, 2007

Many find it hard to come up with the right words to describe the Mazda CX-7. This is because this particular vehicle of Mazda could fit one’s needs. It is especially designed to be able to provide almost anything one needs it to be. It is just so many things that are put together that one will have a hard time saying exactly what makes it so great. According to the people in Mazda, the CX-7 is a sports car. Although this is the case, they cannot simply limit the CX-7 to that definition. The CX-7 can be whatever it can be for a person. There are limits to the power of the creator in its creation. Upon being created, the CX-7 has its own existence. It can already allow others to give definition to it.

The CX-7 has a turbo-charged engine that can generate 258 bhp. At its finest, it can generate up to 380Nm. This roughly translates to a top rated speed of 130 mph. It features four-wheel drive system that makes the CX-7 a rather capable vehicle. It can generate sufficient amount of power and can be used as a tow car. The CX-7’s wide body is also a good factor in using the vehicle for towing. With more space, more can be hauled on it. This vehicle is a good testimony of Mazda’s extraordinary towing capacity.

Apart from capacity, the vehicle is well-designed. One can say that it was designed to get a shot at perfection. The whole architecture of the vehicle seems to say a lot about the vehicle itself. It is equipped with climate-control air-conditioning, leather upholstery, heated front seats, BOSE Premium audio system that comes with a 6-CD changer. It has a privacy glass, self-cleaning Xenon headlamps, as well as air bags all round the vehicle. For further comfort in driving, there’s a traction and stability control topped with an Active Torque four-wheel-drive system.
