The consideration and configuration of Mazda CX-5 in active and passive safety can be said to be quite comprehensive. First of all, in terms of body structure, through the linearization of the basic skeleton, the multi-path load structure and the ring structure of each part of the skeleton, the fully loaded body can effectively absorb and disperse energy when facing frontal, lateral and rear impacts. Exquisite body design can not only ensure high strength and stiffness, but also effectively reduce the weight of the body.

At the same time, the safety design such as the front seat for relieving neck impact, the rear seat structure for restraining luggage from rushing forward, and the pretensioned seat belt with force limiter can also provide sufficient restraint and buffer for the occupants in the car in an emergency, effectively protecting the personal safety of the occupants in the car.
In terms of active safety, the new car is also equipped with an evolved version of i-ACTIVSENSE intelligent safety assistance system, which integrates functions such as active braking, frontal collision warning and parallel assistance. In addition, front and rear parking radars and 360-degree panoramic images can also effectively reduce the difficulty of entry and improve driving safety.

It also has five-star safety certification of China C-NCAP, Australia A-NCAP and Europe E-NCAP, with all kinds of honors and obvious strength.

Maximum power 1 14kW of 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, maximum torque of 200N·m, maximum power 144kW of 2.5L naturally aspirated engine and maximum torque of 252 n m.
Chuangchi Blue Sky Engine 13: 1 The application of high compression ratio and in-cylinder high-pressure direct injection system makes its performance become the best among naturally aspirated engines with the same displacement on the market at present, and the driving pleasure brought by linear power output of self-priming engine is incomparable to that of turbocharged engine.
In terms of transmission, the whole system is matched with 6AT gearbox, which brings a smoother driving experience. At the same time, the upgraded version of GVC PLUS (Acceleration Vector Control System) can not only improve the handling performance of the vehicle, but also bring a better sense of cornering control, and also bring a pleasant ride experience to all members in the car.
