Mazda8 MPV launch brings BERMAZ a complete stable of vehicles in Malaysia

The Mazda8 brings you all the pleasure and confidence-inspiring handling you expect from Zoom-Zoom driving, along with the space and flexibility you require in an MPV. The high-tech MZR 2.3 DOHC engine offers lively, linear power with outstandingly low emissions. There is ample power at high engine speeds and powerful torque in the low and mid ranges. Engine response is instant and linear to even the lightest touch on the accelerator pedal. The 5-speed Activematic transmission delivers smooth and sporty shifting as well as a quieter high-speed cruising, while the carefully-tuned suspension ensures the ideal balance of handling and ride comfort, with new suspension bushings to help minimise road noise and vibration. The suspension system is tuned to give you the best of both worlds: sharp, sporty handling along with a smooth, comfortable ride. Roll centre height is set at the optimum, to enable this MPV to have a flat, firm ride and positive, predictable handling.

All-wheel ventilated disc brakes guarantee a linear, confidence-inspiring brake performance in all situations, while the system is tuned to give a natural feel to the driver when pressing the brake pedal. Electronic brake force distribution (EBD) is also standard, and maintains Mazda8’s short stopping distances by varying brake force between the front and rear wheels according t the distribution of load and passengers. Dual front airbags for driver and passenger are standard equipment. In addition, front side airbags and curtain airbags covering all three rows of seats give extra protection against side impacts.

First-class packaging features innovative versatility that makes Mazda8 the perfect companion for everything you do. The wide range of seating arrangements includes comfortable mode for six, full occupancy for eight, five occupants plus luggage, six occupants plus luggage, seven occupants plus luggage, and rear semi flat mode. The 6:4 split third row features Mazda’s unique karakuri
folding system. Simply pulling a strap on each seat causes the seat cushion to sink and the seatback to fold, opening up a large flat luggage area. The return mechanism is powered, so you can open the seats at the touch of a switch.

Even with the third row seats in place, you still have a capacious 357 litre (DIN) luggage capacity ample for two sets of golf clubs. In addition, a 349mm deep trunk under the floor offers maximum capacity of 109 litres for storage of everyday items regardless of seat configuration. Mazda8 2.3L MPV, choice of seven sophisticated colours lets you express your take on the Mazda8’s personality. Colours available – Crystal White Pearl, Copper Red, Sparkling Black, Metropolitan Grey and Sunlight Silver. It is priced at RM190,228.00 on the road without insurance (OTR).
