I travelled to Scotland for the launch of Mazda’s first CX-5, so I was keen to drive this recently facelifted model to see how much things have changed. With the latest Kodo design, the Mazda CX-5 is definitely on a drive upmarket in terms of quality and image. This latest model feels quite special inside, but then, as the range-topping example, so it should.
IT is easy to see why the Infiniti Q50 stands out from the crowd. In what was a record 2014 for the brand in Britain with sales almost doubling over 2013, the Q50 saloon led its registrations and I am not surprised as it’s a particularly stunning car in its executive class.
THE new Mazda3 is excellent – it’s as simple as that. I said so when I attended the launch in Scotland and I still say so now, having spent a week at the helm of the Fastback model, or saloon to you and me. The Kodo design of the new Mazda3, which means Soul of Motion, follows the lead set by the Mazda6 and CX-5, which is proving very popular with customers. The concept works well in the Mazda3 too, giving the car considerable road presence and stand-out appeal. It looks good from all angles.
