最近有人在欧洲拍到了2018款马自达CX-5改款车照片。继2016款车型改款之后，马自达正在对该车进行新的升级。虽然车身进行了伪装，但仍能看出前后端进行了改款。格栅采用金属网格而非现行版的水平横杠，边框也更厚实。新的底部前脸更简洁，两侧没有进气口，或者也可能是伪装得很好，没有看出来。前大灯也更细窄，使前脸更具侵略性。车尾可见更锐利的尾灯组和逐渐变细的尾部。后保险杠搭配反光板更锐利。虽然没有拍到内装照片，但据报道，马自达为新车提供了更高端内装。现行版CX-9所采用的内装能更好的诠释未来的CX-5内装，包括纳帕真皮和紫檀木内饰。为了保持更大优势，新车预计还将提供驾驶员安全辅助技术。CX-5的动力系统预计不会变化。现行美版车搭载2.0和2.5升四缸引擎，可选择前轮驱动和全轮驱动。新车重量将进一步降低，因此燃油经济性将进一步提升，但不会有很大变化。预计2018款车型外观更锐利，内装进一步升级。按照时间表，新车预计将于明年发布。
Refreshed 2018 Mazda CX-5 spied in Europe
Recent spy shots showed the refreshed Mazda CX-5 at a gas station in the United States, and now another photographer has caught the updated crossover testing in Germany. After a recent update for the 2016 model year, Mazda is clearly working hard to keep the popular CUV fresh in very crowded segment.
Mazda still entirely covers the CX-5 in camouflage, but there are still obvious changes at the front and rear. The grille on this one features a mesh covering rather than the current horizontal bars, and there's a thicker frame around the outside of it. The new lower fascia looks simpler because there are no intakes at each corner, or the camo hides them quite well. The designers also fit even narrower headlights that give the crossover a very aggressive face. At the rear, the taillights have sharper edges and a more tapered shape. The bumper gets matching reflectors that a more pointy what the CX-5 has now.
We haven’t seen the refreshed CX-5’s interior yet, but Mazda reportedly wants to take the brand upmarket. The current CX-9 likely shows what to expect because the latest model offers customers higher quality materials, like Nappa leather and Japanese Rosewood. To keep up with innovations in the rest of the CUV segment, expect updates to the driver safety assistance technology, too.
The CX-5's powertrain range likely won’t change much for this refresh. The current model is available in the United States with a 2.0- and 2.5-liter four-cylinder and a choice of front- or all-wheel drive. Some of the model’s updates might cut weight slightly, which could allow for small fuel economy improvements, but don’t expect anything revolutionary.
We expect Mazda to introduce the sharper looks and improved interior on the CX-5 for the 2018 model year. If the company hits that timeframe, the official debut would likely happen next year.
