2016 Mazda CX-5

Introduced in 2012, the current CX-5 is now in the middle of its life cycle, and receives a few changes for 2016. The front fascia is now more aggressive, while the headlights have been reworked and now feature LEDs in the GT trim. New 19-inch aluminium wheels are now available, and two new colours are offered.

Inside, the dashboard and the centre console are redesigned, now looking like the ones found in the new CX-3. The ergonomics have also been improved, and a few more storage spaces can now be found throughout the vehicle.

Engine choices stay the same: either a 2 or 2.5-litre four-cylinder paired with a manual or automatic six-speed gearbox.
