After being spied testing in the past few months, the 2017 Mazda CX-5 will finally debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show this November. Mazda surprised people by revealing a teaser photo of the new CX-5 that received a restyling, will be lighter, more efficient and more fun to drive.

Recent spy photos of the new generation Mazda CX-5 had generated much attention among lovers of the SUV segment since it shows numerous changes to the current model. Now the teaser photo unveiled by Mazda showed its awesome new look, according to MotorTrend.
Almost two years ago the current generation CX-5 received its final tune, now is the time to make major changes. First, Mazda designers use the latest evolution of its design language 'KODO. We find a model whose image transmit a greater personality and dynamism. Sharp lines smoothed and finished with stylized areas will be combined.
The idea is to find the balance between a sporty and urban image, a dynamic model that conveys a greater capacity and strength. It is clear that the influence of the Mazda CX-4 and CX-9 will be present in the new Mazda CX-5. The Full LED technology will be present in the new headlamps debut, while in the group taillights also said lighting technology is used.
With regard to its interior, in the latest spy photos of the 2017 Mazda CX-5 one could see a cabin with enough camouflage but in which details such as the central multimedia display peered in an elevated position and which reproduce the latest version of the system Mazda Connect infotainment. The cabin is more spacious and the trunk increased capacity.
The new CX-5will be built on a new platform and will receive spectacular development to be one of the leaders of the segment in terms of behavior. Probably one of the keys is weight reduction, which obviates the need of having to mount more powerful engines, with more torque, according to CarandDriver.
At the moment there is little information about the powertrains that will accompany the 2017 Mazda CX-5, the SKYACTIV 2.5-liter 250 horsepower could be a clear top end: it is the same engine turbo has already released the CX-9 in the United States. For Europe the availability of this 2.5-liter engine is unclear.
