Nice work Banjos!..so will awd be std with the turbo..optional at least?
2L X makes around 190hp and 220ftlb, better than the 2.5G but not quite there as that of the 2.5T.Good news! now lets just hope that the following year they offer up that engine in the CX-5. I know the skyactive-x is coming so maybe there is no need but since we haven't seen power number or mpg numbers yet the 2.5T in the CX-5 is top of my wish list for now. If the X engine makes similar power with better mpg's then that's a win for everyone, but it's yet to be seen.
Why can't they just put the 2.5T in the CX5?!? I definitely would have bought this. The Forester XT is a clunky vehicle and I don't love CVTs, but at least it can get out of its own way. The CX5 is already quite nice for the segment in terms of interior and exterior styling. Adding more power would really help steal luxury buyers. I would have bought my wife a BMW or Audi equivalent with more motor if wife wasn't so averse to being seen in a luxury brand vehicle.
Awesome. Will make the Mazda 6 one of the top sporty sedan / wagon (hopefully) in it's class to go with its already sleek looks. Mazda like to keep their lineups similar across the models so I am optimistic they will add the 2.5T to the range topping CX-5 model as they will do here with the 6. Here's hoping. They should not be space issues for the 2.5T to sit in with Mazda's renown long bonnet designs, so no excuses
Make it quieter as well. The Accord is a very noisy car and a quiet and refined Mazda 6 could be a Lexus killer.
Ha! Just remembered my post from 10/31/17. Nailed it regarding engine options!
