Are you in the market for an SUV with plenty of power and more than one engine option? If you answered yes, then you need to take a peek under the hood of a 2021 Mazda CX-5 GT. Available at August Mazda in BC, you can choose which model is right for your daily driving habits.
The standard motor is a Skyactiv-G 2.5 litre 4-cylinder with i-Activ AWD. Paired with the Skyactiv-Drive 6-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode, it generates 187 hp and 186 lb-ft of torque. It also enjoys a fuel economy of 7.9 L/100 km on the highway.
If you want something stronger, then you can opt for the Skyactiv-G 2.5 T with Dynamic Pressure Turbo. Mated with the same transmission and drivetrain, it delivers 250 hp and 320 lb-ft of torque. However, the gas mileage drops a bit to 8.7 L/100 km on the highway.
