New Mazda5 Previewed - forced to wear the new look

New Mazda5 Previewed - forced to wear the new look


New Mazda5 Previewed
This is a case of when, not if. With the entire Mazda range adopting the big smiley corporate face, it was only a matter of time before the Mazda5 (Premacy in some markets) was forced to wear the new look. Like what you see?
The new Mazda5 will be unveiled at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show in March. Embracing �dynamic and elegant Nagare design�, it emits about 15 per cent less CO2 than the current model thanks to Mazda�s �i-stop� system, a new 2.0-litre direct injection petrol engine (paired with a six-speed manual for Europe) plus other measures. The Hiroshima based carmaker also claims a more comfortable ride, perhaps by retuning the suspension.
Mazda says that the 5 is the first production model to fully adopt its Nagare design language. Besides the Mazda3 style front end, there are other familiar Mazda cues such as the sculpted wheelarches, but the MPV�s flanks get wavy lines only seen on Mazda�s concepts prior to this. Nagare means flow in Japanese, and there�s certainly plenty of flow in the shape of the new 5. Inside, the dashboard design mimics the 3 and is more driver centric now.
