Winter driving in Canada is no picnic. The sun begins to sets earlier in the day, making roads not just potentially slick and slippery but dark. Even when medical experts agree people need to stay home as much as possible to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, there are still appointments to attend and groceries to pick up.
Having a vehicle that can trudge through any weather is a comfort during winter, and the Mazda CX-5 can handle any road with style and grace.
Power and Ruggedness
The Mazda CX-5 is available with a Skyactiv-G 2.5 T Dynamic Turbo Pressure gasoline engine has thrilling power and responsiveness you’ll love. If you get stuck on an ice patch and need the heft and muscle to get out, you’ll be glad you’re in the CX-5.
With 320lb.-ft. of torque and up to 250 horsepower, your vehicle will have the power it needs 12 months a year when you drive the Mazda CX-5. Find a Mazda dealership with the latest CX-5 models on the lot or even a large selection of used ones from a recent year.
i-Activ AWD
The 2021 Mazda CX-5 is available with i-Activ AWD, sensors in the road whichconstantly scan road conditions so the vehicle can adjust accordingly. For example, the i-Activ AWD system can predict when slippage will occur and send more torque to the wheel that needs it.
Plus, Mazda’s All-Wheel Drive system is more fuel-efficient than most. Mazda worked hard to redesign a system that optimally distributes torque and minimizes drivetrain energy loss. The result is an AWD that only consumes fuel when necessary — get the control you need on the road without taking a hit at the pump.
Advanced Safety Features Galore
Winter driving is much safer and less stressful in a vehicle loaded with advanced safety technology.
Smart City Brake Support scans the road ahead when driving at slow speeds to monitor for other vehicles or road users — if it detects there’s a risk of collision, the vehicle warns the driver and readies itself to stop.
You’ll love this feature when driving in stop-and-start urban traffic when it’s dark and slippery on busy roads. Smart Brake Support is a complementary feature that scans the streets when driving at faster speeds.
Blind Spot Monitoring helps drivers safely change lanes on highways and roadways alike. A High Beam Control System switches between high and low beam lights, so it’s easier to spot pedestrians or other potential obstacles on the road in the winter twilight.
Intuitive Infotainment System
The infotainment system on Mazda’s 2021 CX-5 has been redesigned to be even easier and safer to use while driving. Drivers will never struggle to sync their Android or Apple smartphone to the system to keep connected, navigate, or listen to their favourite music.
If you’re on a dark back-road somewhere and need to find a map or contact someone for directions, it’ll be easy when you’re in the CX-5.
Life doesn’t stop because it’s cold and icy outside. When you need a vehicle that can handle the Canadian winter, the 2021 Mazda CX-5 has the power and intelligence to take you comfortably to spring.
