Mazda has unveiled its new CX-3 crossover model.

Set to go on sale in Spring 2015, the all-new crossover SUV is the fifth model in Mazda’s new generation Skyactiv-powered line-up.

European models will have a choice of three engines: the petrol SKYACTIV-G 2.0-litre in two power versions and the new SKYACTIV-D 1.5-litre clean diesel.

Six-speed SKYACTIV-Drive automatic and SKYACTIV-MT manual transmissions will be offered either in front-wheel drive format or with Mazda’s new-generation all-wheel drive system.

The all-new Mazda CX-3 will feature Mazda’s latest i-ACTIVSENSE active safety systems as well as superb passive protection from its lightweight yet stiff SKYACTIV-Body.

Suited to the needs of a modern market, it also offers a generous infotainment package including the MZD Connect in-car connectivity system.
