It has stylish and non-trivial design with a rapid and streamlined body. The roof of the smooth line goes into the hood; The outstanding front arches seem to be specifically blown under 18-inch discs, and the arches of the rear axle had to even climb on the glasses.
Through transparent diffusers, two "dula" of the front headlights are visible. More unusual layout at the rear lighting. The wide front air intake is not only an aggressive part, but also the protection of the radiator from overheating.
But inside ... inside everything is much harder. It seems that the Salon CX-7 is not brighter than the interiors less expensive Mazda. In any case, the style is the same as in the "six". And in sensations, the same materials that on the Troika. It upsets, because the car costs one million one hundred and forty thousand rubles !!!
The quality of the assembly, of course, is worthy (except for the boxing armrest lid slightly breakdown, but it will be spoken to this test copy), the trim of doors is interesting and high-quality, but the plastic in the design of the torpedo and on the core of the steering wheel is hard.
The redhead "strip" of the on-board computer switched here from the "six". It accommodates a large amount of information, but readability is far from ideal; In addition, the screen flashes in the sun.
The Bose acoustic system once again pleased with a clean and high-quality sound, and climate control (Dos is stupid only one-one) for several hours of working with difficulty cooled air in the cabin to 18 ° C.
Steering - as on MX-5: with polished "glossy" plastic and a convex core. But the signal is inconvenient: it is not necessary to put pressure on the entire bulge, but only on its center. But the seats are successful. Let them not have a sports grip, but the anatomical form allows you to sit tightly and very comfortable. And you don't need to keep the wheel!
By the way, the steering wheel here - with a variable effort: at low speed it is pouring tangible weight, and a small backlash that protects against the random change of the trajectory appears on a high sharpness. It is worth noting that high people will be harder to get comfortably with comfort: the column is adjustable only in height.
CX-7 drives slower than "Troika" MPS. This is not surprising, because the crossover is heavier at 150 kg, and the 2.3-liter turboctor is defined up to 236 liters. with. to digest the 95th gasoline.
If the Mazda3 MPS "did not know" what to do with such a "herd", then "seven" a little bit of him lacking: acceleration up to 100 km / h less than 8 s - this is, of course, not bad. But at the same time, the maximum features of CX-7 are limited to 181 km / h. That will be inconvenient when the baby Corsa or Yaris will go on the German autobahn ...
To the "box" you need to adapt: \u200b\u200bso that the "automatic" holds turns, the accelerator comes from being stopped to the floor, otherwise the exceptional adaptability will make it "not in time" to switch to increased. (By the way, it is easy to navigate here, since even in the "Drive" mode "AUTOMA" suggests which transmission is included).
If it should not look after him, then 90 km / h, or even before, he will switch to the "sixth" on his own initiative, trying to save fuel. However, if you believe the meter testimony, it does not save much: the most immodest passport consumption was 15.3 liters (in the city cycle), and we were shown from the screen, on average, as much as 24.7 l! I don't want to believe ...
In any case, if you count on a dynamic ride, you should not trust the switching of electronics gear. If not to be lazy and translate the gearbox to the mechanical mode, CX-7 appears much more sporting than it seemed before ...
The successful dynamics of Mazda combines with a decent behavior where asphalt ends. Four-wheel drive - or rather speaking, the front-wheel drive with the elements of the complete - the crossover inherited from Mazda6 MPS. It is worth the front wheels to "join" on a slippery coating, as the differential instantly shifts part of the moment on the rear wheels, and they will help the front.
Huge clearance (208 mm!) Allows you to forget about the grooves (or borders - as you please), but the corners of the entrance and the congress will not give away to off-road. But drive around the cork on the grass - easy!

Brakes are not so bad, as it seems from a driver's seat. The slowdown is quite effective, only the high smoothness of the course and comfortable settings of the car "dull" the objectivity of the process evaluation. And in steep turns of CX-7, rolls rolls, squealing rubber and even easily goes on a wider trajectory - and for this it is not necessary to disable the TCS system (the button is located to the right of the steering wheel).

History Mazda CX-7 / Mazda C X-7
The European Premiere of New Mazda CX-7 took place at the Paris International Motor Show 2006. Masterfully combining the bright personality of sports cars with the practicality of SUVs, Mazda engineers created a car that has an attractive appearance, outstanding dynamics and high level of comfort. CX-7 is a sample of a pure sports approach to creating a car from SUV discharge.
An extraordinary body design, an excellent interior and breathtaking dynamic characteristics make Mazda CX-7 by car, which challenges the established canons. The model is built on the upgraded all-wheel drive platform Mazda6.
Large, low air intake - helps cool a powerful DISI engine (Direct Injection Spark Ignition). The grill of the radiator smoothly goes into the hood, creating the continuity of the lines. The form of the front wings of the car resembles a little Mazda RX-8. The windshield stands under an acute angle, behind the rear doors follow the side rear windows that are dramatically narrowed in the rear. Such a combination of backward windshield back and taped behind the lateral windows gives CX-7 more energetic appearance. By the way, the same rear side windows have chrome edging, which gives the appearance of an additional gloss. Rear Mazda CX-7 sports style continues two large exhaust pipes, and large transparent lights.
The main differences of the European version are a new design of bumpers with integrated fog lights, more elegant than in American models. And also built into the side mirrors repeaters of turns.
The car has excellent aerodynamic qualities. The slope of windshield in 66 degrees made it possible to achieve low air resistance.
In the finishing of the Mazda CX-7 salon, the designers focused on the sportiness and quality of individual details. Steering wheel and handle shift lever are covered with skin and have a specially designed form, thanks to which they are ideal for girth. Soft matte upholstery materials are carefully chosen in color. The dashboard as a whole corresponds to the spirit of the last models - the devices are located in deep wells, and round dampers are used for ventilation. But there are innovations, the panel itself has both two levels, on one - dashboard, on the second a narrow display of the on-board computer.
The front seats have developed lateral support, they are clearly divided by a high central tunnel. The rear places are folded (60/40), providing even more free space in the luggage compartment.
Mazda CX-7 has a great overview, due to the high landing, has a capacity and comfort. Many places to store things. Between the front chairs of a large glove box by 5.4 liters, and two cup holders. Opposite the front passenger even larger glove box locked by key. In the front doors - deep pockets, and behind the front chairs of the departments for storing maps and magazines. The luggage compartment of Mazda CX-7 can take objects up to 100 cm long with a normal use version, if folded the rear seats, then you can put things up to 176 cm long.
Under the hood of Mazda CX-7, a 4-cylinder gasoline engine MZR with a volume of 2.3 liters with a direct fuel injection, equipped with a turbine and intercooler, the full name of the MSR2.3 DISI Turbo engine, Mazda Speed \u200b\u200bAtenza became the donor of this engine. The maximum capacity of the car is 244 hp With torque 5000 rpm. From space up to 100 km / h car accelerates in 7.9 seconds.
The smoothness of the move supports a new 6-speed gearbox, besides, significantly saving fuel, due to clear settings. Available versions and automatic gearbox.
In the Russian market, the CX-7 will be available in two basic equipment - Touring and Sport, in the standard equipment of which includes climate control, power windows on all doors, cruise control, stabilization system, ABS, brake force distribution system and emergency braking assistance system, and six airbags. Within each other, these modifications differ only with a set of equipment - Buyers of the Sport version in addition to the main set will also receive leather interior trim, xenon headlights, advanced BOSE audio system and the keyless access system (Keyless Entry).
The basic version of the Mazda CX-7 also includes a full drive branded system (Mazda Active Torque Split All-Wheeldrive), which does not allow scrolling wheels on slippery surfaces, and provides a magnificent traction on the usual road. Using real-time information from numerous sensors, the system continuously monitors the road, and the use of differential. In addition to the full drive, the car in the basic configuration has a thrust control system (TSC), and a motion stabilization control system (DCS).
Easy, but Hard Body Mazda CX-7, created using the technology of absorption and energy distribution, which guarantees a safe and dynamic ride. The magnificent 18-inch wheels 235/60, on elegant aluminum disks, allow you to feel all the softness of the movement. Salon is equipped with 6-m-airbags (front and side for the driver and front passenger, side curtains seated behind), and seat belts with a pretensioner.
In 2009, Mazda conducted a restyling and technical update of the CX-7 crossover. The presentation of the renewed car for the North American market took place in February 2009 in Toronto. The European Premiere held a month later on the Geneva Auto Show. The dimensions now make up: length - 4680 mm, width - 1870 mm, height - 1645 mm, base - 2750 mm, clearance - 208 mm.
The exterior of the car has changed in accordance with the modern style of the brand. The branded "smile", similar to that already appeared on the "face" of the updated Mazda3 and Mazda6, now in CX-7. The front part received a new grate in the form of a pentagon, and the bumper was equipped with new fog lights. The grille, as well as side thresholds include new chrome details. Improving appearance contributed to changes in the rear spoiler located above the trunk window. Supplement the picture new discs 18 or 19 inches (depending on the version of the configuration), with a three-dimensional view. Restyled model also changed the rear lighting and updated the interior.
Inside the car you can find a new refreshing dashboard, along with a 4.1-inch LCD display, Bluetooth, middle-class stereosystem and a driver's seat with a memory of three owners. The luggage compartment in the hiking state interfers 455 liters, the trunk is narrow and long with a large loading height, folding seats are designed to increase its volume. The initial set of Mazda CX-7 Touring is equipped with quite richly: climate control, central locking, windows, electrical skews and heated front seats, route computer, radio cd / mp3.
In America, the CX-7 line has been replenished with an economical new four-cylinder engine 2.5 liters and with a capacity of 161 hp. This engine is suitable for a slow driver, for which sharp accelerations, high-speed taxiing and high maximum speed in the assessment of the car are far from at first places. Acceleration up to 100 km / h takes 10.3 seconds. Drive fans will be more suitable for a friend in the previous version of Turbo engine 2.3 DISI with a capacity of 238 hp The gamma of power units was also replenished with 2.2-liter turbodieselmmm-cd power 170 hp Only for the European market, the car is equipped with a system of further purification of the Selective Catalytic REDUCTION (SCR) system. It is possible to reduce the content in the exhaust of nitrogen oxides by 40%. The engine meets the requirements of the EURO 5 environmental standard.
The gearboxes also became one more. The company for the already familiar to us six-speed "automata", Mazdovtsy added a five-pidia-band. True, the crossover equipped with such a box can only be an editorial and exclusively with a 161-strong engine.
Mazda CX-7 is one of the few models that combines the sport design and driving pleasure with the space and the functionality of the present SUV.

The Mazda CX-7 crossover was represented by a wide audience for the first time at the exhibition in Los Angeles in 2006. Then there was a splash of the popularity of this car. The release of the first models and the start of sales also occurred in 2006.
An interesting fact is that the American version of the CX-7 with a gasoline engine is more common in the territory of the Russian Federation. When February 2009 came, in Canada, or rather in Toronto, the representation of the CX-7 resting model was held. And a month later, a car show was held in Geneva, which showed the European Premiere. All.
Exterior
The appearance of the car will have to make many. Mazda CX-7 combines the verified body design, two exhaust pipes and lights that additionally emphasize the sportiness of the machine. In general, the exterior of the car was improved to the family image of the entire line of Mazda crossovers.
If you look at it from the face, the inflated front wings are thrown into the eyes, over which the hood of the V-shaped form is located. All design elements are harmoniously combined with each other. This speaks of his beautiful aerodynamics. Decorates the Mazda CX-7 The head optics is quite aggressive appearance.
The side air intakes were recycled, fog lanterns were placed in them. Now MAZDA CX-7 appeared more sporty. The new form began to possess the bumper and fog lights. As for the pentagonal radiator lattice, it increased in width and looks like a big smile, which has become almost a traditional moment for the other Mazda cars after 2010.
The style of the vehicle has retained its sporty character, as eloquently testify sharp corners of the front racks, which at the same time give the car with beautiful aerodynamic properties. The medium-sized "crossover" version of the Mazda CX 7 is an excellent sample of the design solution.
Thanks to the massive, low air intake, it is possible to better cool the disi-motor. The radiator grille smoothly flows into the hood, and it seems to demonstrate the continuity of the lines. The very shape of the wings installed in front is slightly similar to the model.
The windshield was installed under an acute angle, and the side windows are running behind the rear doors, dramatically tapering in the fodder area. With the help of reduced dimensions, the front headlights are almost interconnected. They possess 84 built-in LEDs.
Interestingly, IWAO KIZUMI, Mazda's chef designer, said that the concept of the Exterior of the Crossover was invented when he was in the fitness center.
Wheel arches place the wheels to a nineteenth radius. The drop-down roof merges into one whole along with the side line of opening windows. The door of the crossover turned out to be wave-like, they are very reliable. The side windows installed at the back have chrome edging, which allows you to make the exterior of the crossover unusual, adds an additional gloss.
As it should be the SUV feed CX-7 clearly adjusted and light, the rear dimensions are located high. Reflective elements and rear bumper are one integer. The stern part has received a small luggage compartment door with glass and spoiler. In this car, the engineering composition professionally combined the catchy personality of sports cars with the practicality of SUVs.
Based on the Mazda CX 7, it can be seen that the crossover received an attractive appearance, tempting dynamics and a worthy level of comfort. The "brainchild" of the Japanese is a good example of a sports approach to creating a car from class SUV.
The reality of Mazda CX-7 was able to challenge well-established stereotypes, possessing an extraordinary appearance, excellent internal space and impressive dynamic characteristics. This car is based on an improved all-wheel drive Mazda 6.
Interior
The same style is traced in the interior. When assembly, attention is paid not to the luxuriousness of the cabin, but the quality of individual details. High landing increases the driver overview while driving. In the process of production of the Mazda CX-7 salon, only advanced technologies were used.
The steering wheel to this model moved from the third Mazda. Separate devices on the panel look very pretty and have due informativeness. However, many may have the impression that the central console is overwhelmed by various keys and buttons, it is especially striking against the background of two small screens.
The owners of MAZDA CX-7 mark comfort in controlling the options and functions of the car. All sorts of "twisters" are very convenient and near the hand of the driver. The steering wheel in this Parketnik is regulated by departure and tilt. Also, the electrical adjustment is present in the rearview mirrors. The position of the seats in the car can be adjusted by pressing the buttons.
It's not so easy to find the optimal posture, because the armchairs that received the sport profile, installed low and deep into the salon, and the front rack was very littered back. Due to this, the quality of the review from the driver's seat is not perfect. The three-spoke steering wheel itself, together with the speed switch lever, pulled the skin.
Leather steering wheel On the steering wheel there are control elements of important electrical systems of the car. The panel installed in front seems to be divided into two functional zones where the bottom has a dashboard and the ventilation dampers of the round shape, and the top, the screen of the bertocomputer. The front seats are separated by a high central tunnel. They are equipped with straps with tension force limiters.
The stove was installed so so that even in the winter time, the temperature of the cabin could climb after a few minutes after the inclusion. With a powerful audio system installed, it is possible to get such a strong sound that the door sheathing can rattling from its oscillations. Many noted the inconvenience of the location of the screen, which is displayed from the rear view camera.
At the same time, it is very often in rainy weather, it clogs, and the image is removed very bad. As a result, a certain kind of difficulty appears when driving back. The second row of seats with comfort can place two people. But the third will have to be sighted. Trunk capacity of 455 liters with sufficiently high loading capacity.
If you fold the rear row of seats, then the capacity is increased at times. Transfer large household appliances or small furniture items will be much simpler! As you know, the Japanese attach special attention to the quality of finishes and materials. In Mazda CX-7, this is especially felt!
In 2007, the Mazda CX 7 machine became the owner of a special prize "Best SUV" in Japan.
When finishing the interior of Mazda CX-7, a hard-type plastic was applied, however, it is not a creaking. To be where to put your belongings, Japanese constructors have provided a 5.4-liter glove box placed between the front seats. In addition, based on Mazda CX 7 photos, there is a glove box that can be locked with the key, as well as pockets in the front doors and niches for magazines on the feed side of the front seats.
With a folded back row, the seats, useful volume increases to 1,350 liters of useful space. Already following the 2009th year, the vehicle received an upgraded "tidy", a 4.1-inch liquid crystal screen, support for bluetooth and a driver's seat with a memory function for 3 positions. The restyling model already has a multimedia system that supports the touch input.
Specifications
Force aggregate
In this section of the review, we consider Mazda CX-7. Technical characteristics. TO aK is known in the territory of the Russian Federation you can purchase a car with two engine options:
- Gasoline, 2.5-liter engine with 163 horsepower and maximum torque 205 nm. A similar power unit will be a calm and measured owner who does not put sharp accelerations at the head of the corner, high-speed control and high maximum speed. In reality, the car lacks the power and thrust of the motor. The first hundred is achieved only in 10.3 seconds. It is important to understand that for the crossover, the mass of which exceeds two tons, the 163-strong motor will not be enough. Every 100 kilometers, consumption is about 9.4 liters of gasoline.
- Petrol, four-cylinder, turbocharged MZR engine, 2.3 liter volume with 238 horsepower. Power installation In addition to the turbine received an intercooler. At the peak, it gives 350 nm of torque. To accelerate to the speed mark of 100 kilometers per hour, the car with such a motor can be in 8.3 seconds. Management, passing turns and stability on a straight line - the engine has all this. During complex road situations, the rear axle helps (connected during the front wheel slip).
Fuel consumption on Mazda CX-7 acceptable. "Engine", 2.3 liters, eats 9.3 and 15.3 liters of gasoline on the highway and in the city, respectively. In general, Mazda CX 7 fuel consumption may depend on many points, including driving manor. The limit speed can exceed 200 kilometers per hour.
The European market has received an additional selective Catalytic Reducion exhaust gas system. Thanks to such a system, it is possible to lower the content in exhaust gases of nitrogen oxides by 40 percent. The power plant complies with EURO-5 environmental standard standards.
Transmission
As a gear shift box for a 2.5-liter "engine", a five-step automaton is used. You can also choose a six-speed "automatic". But the car with such a box goes only with a 2.3-liter motor and the torque is transmitted only on the front wheels. Included with a 238-power engine there is a six-speed automatic transmission.
Chassis
The technical part has independent front and rear suspension, disc brake mechanisms with ABS system and electronic assistants - EBD, EBA, TCS and DSC. Do not think that the Japanese car Mazda CX 7 has real off-road qualities.
Like any similar car in its class, it is intended only for light off-road. Of course, the height of the road lumen is 205 millimeters (after updating the 2009 year of 208 mm), but this does not mean that it is worthwhile in the fields and forests. His element is crossed terrain and light off-road.
Security
Security systems help CX7 provide dynamic stabilization and emergency braking during an emergency. In addition, Japanese workers tried that during testing the machine on the NCAP system, the car could get 4 stars out of five possible.
Of course, not an ideal assessment, but not the worst, as for the "off-road" version. The overall rating was lowered due to insufficient protection of the neck of an adult passenger. But, despite this, the Japanese managed to take care of the proper level of security.
If you take the carrier body design of the car, then it was performed in such a way that any energy during the collision was not concentrated in the same area, and correctly redistributed over the entire structure and dissipated.
Speaking for airbags and belt tensioners, it is worth saying that they can function in a different way in the car. Controls this process electronic control unit.
In the necessary situation, it decides that in this case it will be better - to tighten the belt or serve a signal to gas generators of certain pillows. The airbag is blown away only by the touch of man. The re-using them is not envisaged, as they are disposable.
Even the simplest equipment Mazda CX 7 has belts for front chairs with special tensioning devices and with limiters of belt tensioning force limiters. With the help of a special design of the boobspace, it is possible to calculate that during the frontal clash the power unit left or down, but not in the salon.
The steering column during the collision is frozen and does not meet the chest or the head of the owner. Installed in front of the chair, can also significantly absorb energy during the accident of the Japanese crossover. The pedal compartment was placed and constructed, so so that he did not shifted at the accident.
