Mazda CX-5 2.2D Sport (2013) long-term test review

Rated 3 out of 53

the CAR road test team, 22 April 2013 09:00

Month 4 running a Mazda CX-5: our CX-5's build quality impresses Ask my wife’s 86-year-old grandfather, who suffers from failing eyesight, about what he misses most and he says it’s driving. Growing up in Cyprus he would rattle around in tractors and Austin Sevens when he was still in short trousers. After moving his family to England in the 1960s, he owned ...

Mazda MX-5 GT (2012) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Barry, 21 August 2012 14:00

Talk about stealing the limelight: so much has the focus been on the new Toyota GT86 and Subaru BRZ twins that just about everyone has forgotten about one key alternative, the Mazda MX-5. Now Mazda UK are hoping to put at stop to all that, with this MX-5 GT concept. A production car would be preferable, surely… Well, hopefully that’s ...

Mazda CX-5 2.2D (2012) UK CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Whitworth, 06 June 2012 11:20

Mazda’s new CX-5 is the company’s first sixth generation vehicle and its importance in the UK cannot be overestimated. Not only does the compact crossover usher in the Japanese firm’s new Kodo design language - Soul of Motion is its snappy catchphrase – but it's also the first in-the-metal iteration of Mazda’s groundbreaking suite of fuel-saving Skyactiv technologies. It’s available ...

Mazda CX-5 2.2D (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Pulman, 17 April 2012 09:46

This is the new Mazda CX-5, and it really is new. The Mazda CX-5 ushers in a whole raft of new technologies – under the SkyActiv banner – aimed at cutting weight, consumption and emissions. The two engines, the two gearboxes, the chassis, and the body, have all been designed and developed from scratch under the SkyActiv philosophy, and that ...

Mazda Demio EV (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Whitworth, 06 December 2011 12:20

So this is the electric version of Mazda’s Demio (that’s the Madza 2, to you and I), the company’s first modern all-electric car. It’s a development tool, and not aimed at production yet. If you’re reading this with a fair amount of confusion and thinking ‘Hang about, I thought Mazda was doing that SkyActiv malarkey,’ you’re right. Mazda is vigorously and ...

Mazda MX-5 2.0 RC long-term test review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

the CAR road test team, 10 November 2010 10:00

Mazda MX-5 long-term test goodbye – 10 November 2010 Yes, I know that this is probably the longest gap between penultimate and final long-term reports, but believe me, it’s been worth the wait. We’ve always loved the MX-5 for its dynamic brilliance, its affordability and its clockwork reliability. It’s a giant-slayer, capable of putting a lot of faster and more ...

Mazda 5 2.0 DISI (2010) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Tim Pollard, 23 June 2010 11:34

Mazda will replace its 5 midi-MPV in autumn 2010 and CAR's just driven the new minivan. The new Mazda 5 (2010) is the first production car to bear the full fruits of the company's much-vaunted 'Nagare' design policy, with some highly unusual sculpting on the flanks. As you can read in our news story here, that design direction is being ...

Mazda 3 MPS (2009) hot hatch CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 04 September 2009 00:07

Not that long ago, Mazda’s 3 MPS was the hot hatch king – well, with 256bhp it was the most powerful front-wheel drive hatch you could buy, if not the best to drive or look at. Now it’s back with an aggressive restyle, plus a whopping extra…sorry, old habits and all that. No, it’s back with exactly the same 256bhp ...

Mazda 6 2.2D Sport (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 11 November 2008 10:01

The new Mazda 6 diesel is bucking the current trend for downsizing. When every other manufacturer seems intent on reducing engine displacement through turbocharging, Mazda has replaced its 2.0-litre diesel with a 2.2-litre oil burner. The old 138bhp engine is dropped from the UK line-up completely (though it will still be available in certain foreign markets) and in comes the ...

Mazda MX-5 2.0 (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Whitworth, 31 October 2008 11:17

This is Mazda’s new 2009 MX-5 – and in a world exclusive, CAR has driven the facelifted MX-5 seven months ahead of its UK debut to bring you the first road test of what is still the world’s most popular sports car. The news is all good… The facelifted Mazda MX-5 looks pretty much the same. What's new? Visually, the ...
