Mazda’s SKYACTIV CX-5 SUV Receives Fleet World Award
Mazda’s breakthrough SKYACTIV technology, which debuted in the all-new Mazda CX-5 SUV in Malaysia this month has won its second UK motor industry award. Delivering major fuel savings and emission reductions for fleet and retail customers, SKYACTIV technology won a top award from industry publication Fleet World in the week that the Mazda CX-5 went on sale in the UK. The Editor’s Award in the 2012 Fleet World Honours was presented at a special ceremony held at the Royal Automobile Club in London on Wednesday, May 16th.
The benefits of SKYACTIV technology are seen in a range of new fuel-sipping, emission-busting engines powering the Mazda CX-5, but extend to also include improved aerodynamics, vehicle weight reduction, chassis developments and new manual and automatic transmissions. SKYACTIV technology, which has as its three key attributes economy, safety and performance, promises to redraw the automotive landscape as it is gradually rolled out across the Mazda line-up with the launch of new models. The 2-wheel drive (2WD) petrol engine range returns 47.1mpg on the combined cycle; no competitor models can match such figures given the available power.
“The range of SKYACTIV technologies allows Mazda to build petrol and diesel cars that deliver class-leading fuel consumption and CO2 emissions without compromising performance or handling. This significantly reduces the cost of motoring for fleets and company car drivers and responds to the environmental needs that are now a key factor in corporate decision-making.
“By introducing SKYACTIV technology to all sixth generation Mazda vehicles, starting with Mazda CX-5, everyone can drive an environmentally friendly car, not just those who are prepared to pay the price premium charged by other brands.”
