2007 Mazda CX-7 Auto Show Photo

With its first all-Mazda-derived SUV, called the CX-7, Mazda is clearly trying to hit the current sweet spot of car-like ride characteristics, with traditional SUV cargo versatility. Derived from a combination of the Mazda 6 and Mazda 3 suspension and engine parts, the CX-7 is a five-passenger crossover with many details clearly playing toward the Mazda sports car motif. The CX-7 will offer form-fitting bucket seats, high-mounted shifter, and a stylish three-dial instrument cluster. And to add a little zoom-zoom, Mazda will use the turbocharged and intercooled 2.3-liter I-4 direct-injection engine rated to produce 244 horsepower at 5,000 rpm, the same engine available in the Mazdaspeed 6. The engine, in CX-7 configuration, is predicted to achieve 23 mpg. Look for base models to start around $25,000.
