The term "sense of luxury" is no stranger to everyone, so how should it be defined? In the past, the field that heard the most about "sense of luxury" may be the entertainment industry, in the era of the prevalence of cookie-cutter Internet celebrity faces, such as those in the fashion or modeling circles that are not so "perfect" in the eyes of the public, but with a cold and alienated "sense of luxury". It is said that beauty is in the bone and skin, and it is precisely because they are beautiful enough to leave room and recognition, that they can better withstand the test of time.
The same is true of the automotive circle, and in an increasingly homogeneous market environment, "face-bumping" design can be said to be everywhere. Perhaps they have a cool appearance and trendy configuration blessing, to some extent it is "beautiful", but it is not attractive, and it lacks a unique "sense of premium". As a unique benchmark in the automotive field, Mazda, which has always pursued pure original intentions, is even more valuable, and the CX-5, which was the first generation to introduce the aesthetics of "soul movement", is the representative of the author's best interpretation of the "high sense" of automobiles.
Soul moving red + subtraction aesthetics, simplifying complexity is the trend of the times
Whether a car is advanced enough, design is definitely the first element. Before telling the aesthetics of Mazda's "soul design" that has amazed countless people, as a female consumer, the first thing I want to mention may be the "car paint" that other car companies are easy to ignore, but Mazda does a particularly good job, after all, women are naturally more sensitive to color.
The 2022 Mazda CX-5 adds two new colors of Platinum and Diamond Blue on the basis of the original body color, and the choice is more abundant. However, the author's most heartfelt thing is the distinctive crystal soul red, and I believe that no woman can refuse such a color that is better than lipstick! This red color also gives the CX-5 the most obvious "sense of premium", which will transform the light and shadow effect of the travel clouds under the sunlight, and instantly stand out from the crowd of models.
It is said that "Less is more", simplifying complexity is the general trend of design in many industries such as home, beauty, fashion and so on. As mentioned at the beginning of the article, the concept of "high-grade face", their common feature is that they are well-defined + the face has a blank space, and there is room for beauty. The 2022 Mazda CX-5 also has the same magic in design, through subtractive aesthetics and blank treatment, etc., to make the "soul moving" design more pure. Therefore, it is difficult for you to see a redundant line on the CX-5, only the natural light and shadow blessing, the unique profile design and the perfect body proportions will hold the "sense of premium" just right.
On top of the original style, the new CX-5 also achieves seven evolutions in appearance. In addition to adding two new body colors, it has also been upgraded in details such as grilles, headlights and wheel hubs, aiming to bring consumers a more advanced and sporty visual perception. The thick design skills have also successfully brought the beauty of mazda CX-5's "soul movement" to a new level, which can better withstand the test of time and consumers.
The commonality of "sense of luxury" is the ultimate pursuit of details
It is often said that the devil is in the details. In fact, almost everything that makes people feel "advanced" has a commonality, that is, the ultimate pursuit and control of details. Reflected in the car itself, in fact, the most reflective of the level of detail is the design and workmanship of the vehicle interior, and it is also the place where the basic skills of the car company can be seen the most.
The reason why mazda CX-5 has a sense of premium is not only due to the "soul aesthetics" shape that is loved at a glance, but also due to its minimalist interior design. Unlike the bloated interiors of other fuel vehicles and the atmosphere of the big screen supremacy of new power models, the interior of the CX-5 still adheres to the exclusive subtraction blank design.
It does not use an overly exaggerated size screen, whether it is a 10.25" center display or a 7" TFT multi-function LCD dashboard, the size is just right, not only will not dominate, but also in line with Mazda's "driver-centric" concept, the appropriate physical buttons and knob retention is also more convenient for reasonable blind exercise in driving. CX-5 also supports wireless Carplay and Carlife, and more standard MZD yuelian system blessing, the human-computer interaction experience is smoother, while rendering the cockpit technology atmosphere can also effectively improve the convenience and safety of driving.
In addition, the Mazda CX-5's large-area leather coating and exquisite craftsmanship also give the vehicle a more obvious luxury car atmosphere. The use of a variety of materials, such as the leather steering wheel of the ox shoulder leather, the interior panel of METAL WOOD with 12 layers of laminated materials, and the matte chrome upholstery strip of anodized aluminum technology, combined with excellent sewing technology and stitching, the visual and tactile double satisfaction is also further reflected in the high-level craftsman spirit interpreted by CX-5.
The paranoia of the unity of man and horse, personality is indispensable
If the previous appearance and interior can only be regarded as the "high-grade sense" that stays on the surface of the vehicle, then the Mazda CX-5's stubborn human-horse driving experience is the most extreme plus. When auto companies have thrown themselves into the arms of small displacement turbocharging, only Mazda is still struggling to insist on its own personality, from mass production of rotor engines to adherence to natural suction, to gasoline compression technology, this insistence is also Mazda's "advanced" charm.
As the first SUV model to fully adopt Chuangchi Blue Sky technology, the CX-5 is driven by the ultra-high compression ratio of 13:1, combined with a recessed piston and an in-cylinder high-pressure direct injection system, and the power and torque are greatly improved. The 2.5L self-priming engine is perfectly matched with the Chuangchi Blue Sky Transmission, with 196 horsepower and 252 Nm of power performance, which not only accelerates and explodes, but also has a smoother power output than other turbocharged models.
In addition to the abundant power reserve, the ultimate handling experience is equally important to the cornering performance. The 2022 Mazda CX-5 improves wheel power output with the i-ACTIV AWD intelligent all-wheel drive system, and the 14.2:1 steering gear ratio optimizes the handling accuracy. Chuang chi blue sky chassis and GVC PLUS acceleration vector control system upgrade version complement each other, can effectively control the swing amplitude of the body when cornering, the body of the track and the followability of the tail is completely in line with the driver's expectations, can be full of bending and sprinkling, bringing the same level of model does not have the "human and horse in one" advanced sense of control.
The evolution of NVH tranquility and i-ACTIVSENSE intelligent safety assistance system, better quiet cockpit, more comprehensive safety configuration and better control level, the combination of strength and power, the 2022 Mazda CX-5 driving control sense to the extreme, more competitive in the same class of models.
epilogue:
In the final analysis, the standard of high-end sense itself is "rejecting similarities, focusing on design and texture". Mazda CX-5 not only does not follow the trend in the surface design, does not blindly pursue the so-called fashion trends, but creates a Japanese style exclusive to its own "introverted and rich in connotation", and also insists on pursuing the driving pleasure of "human-horse unity" in the bones, for 2% of the driving paranoid "obsessive", unswervingly invest 100% of the energy and enthusiasm, which is the fundamental reason why CX-5 is more pure and more advanced.
