Mazda CX-3 SKYACTIV To Launch In Los Angeles

Mazda will unveil its new small CUV, the CX-3, as a world premiere at the Los Angeles Auto Show.

The Los Angeles Auto Show will be open to the public between November 21 and 30.

Like many recently launched Mazda vehicles, the Mazda CX-3 will feature both the full range of SKYACTIV technology and its design philosophy, KODO – Soul of Motion.

Mazda stated in pursuing a design of beauty and sophistication, the essence of KODO – the expression of life within a vehicle – has been evolved to produce a sharper form with an enhanced sense of speed.

This new CX-3 is a new model for the brand and is most likely based on the recently remodeled Mazda3 compact sedan and hatchback.

This new CX-3 is not the only new vehicle to be shown by Mazda in Los Angeles. The all-new Mazda MX-5 roadster will also make its North American motor show debut.

The engine line-up for this sporty convertible will be tailored to each market, with either a 1.5-liter or 2.0-liter SKYACTIV-G gas engine said to be tuned exclusively for the all-new Mazda MX-5 and mounted longitudinally for its rear-wheel drive configuration. North American-specification models will only be fitted with the SKYACTIV-G 2.0-liter gasoline engine.

Mazda also revealed it will unveil world premiere of updated Mazda6 and CX-5 models, but did not reveal more about the changes.
