Isn't that for the longitudinal engines (6cyl)?Mazda is going to an 8-sp with the new CX's. I wonder if it will be used in the CX-5 and 50?

It is, but one would think they would adapt the transmission to the other models as well.Isn't that for the longitudinal engines (6cyl)
Any links for that info? I wonder if the 8-speed auto Mazda is going to use is from Aisin used by the Citroën C4 or developed in-house?Mazda is going to an 8-sp with the new CX's. I wonder if it will be used in the CX-5 and 50?
It matters to me. Having the extra power without sacrificing mileage is worth it. I can’t speak for mileage using 87 because I never used it in this vehicle.If you noticed jadmt doesn't use 93, so it doesn't seem to matter.
Only if you keep your 2.5T engine at 4,000+ rpm all the time with 93 octane gas ⋯It matters to me. Having the extra power without sacrificing mileage is worth it.
I seriously have never gotten anywhere near that low. I would be disappointed if i did. I hand figure every tankful ie miles driven divided by gallons used. This usually gives slightly better than the car computer shows. Most recent fill up was 250 miles took 7.5 gallons. Heading home tomorrow from a trip and will try and remember to take a photo of mpg and pump
Links for what info? The new CX-90 and CX-70 are using an 8-sp.Any links for that info? I wonder if the 8-speed auto Mazda is going to use is from Aisin used by the Citroën C4 or developed in-house?
As stated, more detailed info, such as is it a brand new transmission developed by Mazda itself, or an available transmission made by a third party like Aisin, on this 8-speed auto Mazda is going to use.Links for what info? The new CX-90 and CX-70 are using an 8-sp.
Oh OK. For some reason I alway thought the current 6-speed SkyActiv-Drive automatic transmission is developed in house by Mazda.It seems they did the 8-sp on their own....
"New eight-speed multi-clutch automatic transmission
Mazda has done away with the Aisin-developed six-speed transmission in its front-wheel-drive cars, and developed an all-new gearbox in house for the CX-60."

Do people still remember the promised SkyActiv-X / SPCCI / HCCI 2.0L? Isn’t it supposed to be the future of the Mazda with break-throuigh technology on BOTH performance AND efficiency?I'm not that excited about some of the new models. More expensive and more problems.
Also many critics and owners have complained about noise, vibration or ride quality, which is not the case (the opposite, actually) with the CX-5 which is half the price. Some of this is because of the low profile tires, but not all of it. The suspension tuning needs work for a vehicle with a luxury pricetag.

2017 is clearly not a Turbo, so can't comparereturned from a ~1800 roadtrip traveling with a 2017 cx5 and I consistently got slightly better mpg. best tank was just over 33mpg and worst 28mpg. there were 4 adults in mine and 3 adults in the other. did a tour of Washington wine country and came back really loaded down with wine.
i think they did offer it, but it didn't sell due to costing a lot more than models with the older engines. they may still have it overseas and in other markets still though.Do people still remember the promised SkyActiv-X / SPCCI / HCCI 2.0L?

speaking of that, saw a cx-90 in person for the first time today. was behind it so saw mainly the rearend and right side. it looked largely (no pun intended) like a big cx-5 to me. this one was black though so may have looked better/easier to see design in another color.yes the price is now near the luxury cars territory pricing. Even for cx5 top trims. And the CX90 pricing ... no comment. For that price there are better choices.
