Comes With Turbocharged 2.3 Liter Engine – The 2010 Mazda CX-7

 

  

The Mazda CX-7 is a mid-size, crossover sports utility vehicle, produced and sold by the Japanese based Mazda Motor Corporation. The CX-7 was first introduced with the 2006 model year. The vehicle was Mazda’s first SUV produced since the Navajo, which was discontinued after the 1994 model year.

The 2010 Mazda CX-7 comes with two engine options. The first engine option is a 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine which comes as standard in all trims. For a crossover SUV, the 2.5-liter engine does not get very good performance. The 2.5-liter engine generates 161 horsepower when it is coupled with the standard five-speed automatic transmission. While performance is not too impressive, the new 2.5-liter engine gets 20 miles per gallon in the city and 28 miles per gallon on the highway, as estimated by the Environmental Protection Agency.

The second engine option for the 2010 automobile is a turbocharged 2.3-liter, four-cylinder engine. When the turbocharged engine is selected, the SUV is upgraded to a six-speed automatic transmission. The turbocharged engine gets much better performance than the 2.5-liter option. The turbocharged engine produces and EPA estimated 18 miles per gallon in the city and 25 miles per gallon on the highway.

The 2010 Mazda CX-7 SUV made its debut at the Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto.

For 2010, apart from the 244HP 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, the CX-7 will be offered for the first time with a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter four-pot that delivers 161 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 161 lb-ft at 3,500 rpm. Available only with a front-wheel drive layout, the 2.5-liter unit is coupled to a five-speed automatic transmission returning an estimated fuel economy of 21/28 mpg (city/highway).

Mazda CX-7's interior was slightly upgraded with a new steering wheel with integrated controls for the audio, Bluetooth telephone and cruise-control, new front and rear door armrests, a fresh multi-function display and a restyled meters for the instrument panel while Mazda also modified the vehicle's double-roof instrument panel.

The CX-7 gets a new base engine: A 161 horsepower version of the 2.5 liter four-cylinder found in the 2009 Mazda6 and 2010 Mazda3. The 244 horsepower 2.3 liter turbo engine will continue as an option. Other changes include tweaked styling, a stiffer body structure, and improvements in NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness), with a particular emphasis on reducing wind noise.
