2021 mazda cx-5 for sale in kelowna bcThe 2021 Mazda CX-5 stands out when it comes to performance because of its available turbocharged engine, i-Activ AWD, and sporty suspension. Thanks to its compact size, SkyActiv powertrain, and well-engineered body, it is also a winner in terms of efficiency. 

The 2021 Mazda CX-5 brings three engine choices to Kelowna, BC. The base 2.5L Skyactiv I-4 gets 7.8 L/100 km on the highway. A similar motor with cylinder deactivation - available on GS, Kuro, and GT trims - lowers fuel consumption to 7.6 L/100 km, while offering 9.3 L/100 km during city driving. 

The 2.5L Skyactiv with Dynamic Pressure Turbo (DPT) increases the horsepower to 250 (instead of 187). Available on GTs and standard on Signature and 100th Anniversary CX-5s, it comes with AWD. This improved performance does not significantly change the fuel economy numbers. These vehicles get 8.7 L/100 km on the open road and 10.8 on urban streets.

2021 mazda cx-5 for sale in kelowna bcThe 2021 Mazda CX-5 offers blind-spot monitoring (BSM) and rear cross-traffic alert (RCTA) to Kelowna drivers. These safety features are standard on all trims, so you do not have to upgrade to get protection. 

Blind-spot monitoring has radar sensors to detect vehicles traveling to the right or left behind the Mazda CX-5 at a rate of more than 30 km/h. A signal lights up on the power-adjustable mirrors to indicate the presence of another car. An audible beep sounds if you attempt to change lanes at this time. RCTA uses the same detectors as BSM to locate oncoming traffic as you reverse out of a parking space or driveway. It also relies on icon and audio alerts. 

What about frontal collisions? All Mazda CX-5 trims have Smart City Brake Support, which uses forward radar to detect vehicles and send alerts when you get too close. A high-speed version of this accident avoidance tool is available on all models except the base GX.
