Break industry rules.

Why is camping so hot? Not only because of the experience of the past three years, but also because it is the best way for urbanites to release pressure and let their souls reset. So camping is not a whim, but the most important extension of "5+2" life.

SUV is undoubtedly the best choice for camping trip. As the largest sales category in China, compact SUV also has the same characteristics-balanced but boring. This is not difficult to understand, because the invisible cost is too high to improve the face value and control that can best reflect the personality.

Is there a car that can break the "seesaw" rule? I can tell you for sure that there are now. This is the pre-sale of Mazda CX-50 at Shanghai Auto Show. As the latest masterpiece of Mazda in the world, the Mazda CX-50 has won numerous praises once it was listed overseas, and the authoritative media in North America even called it "the best compact SUV that can be bought at present".

Overseas praise is not the point, the point is that Mazda finally understands the users in China. After entering China, Mazda CX-50 has been greatly upgraded in body size, comfortable configuration and intelligent configuration, thus creating a set of high-value standards-not only beautiful, easy to drive, good quality, but also large, safe and intelligent.

As soon as the "6 Good" manual came out, I wanted to ask, who said Mazda wouldn't roll?

Start with the face value and be loyal to space.

Mazda's "touching" beauty never needs too much text description. "Mountain System" Mazda CX-50 is as beautiful as a polyhedron: it has a wild face composed of broad bones and strong standing posture, a sense of movement given by a long front and a short front overhang, and an elegant temperament created by a large arc waistline and a full and round outline. After all the elements are skillfully arranged and combined, it seems to breed a kind of magic that firmly grasps our eyes and brains.

The natural and harmonious white stone and sand color jumping among the mountains can be called the "soul color" of Mazda CX-50. Inspired by the sand mold on the casting mold, it presents the cold texture of metal through the precise arrangement of aluminum powder, which has three properties of high temperature resistance, low temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, and the process difficulty is no less than the familiar "soul moving red".

Many people commented on Mazda's "first-class face value and second-rate space". This time, Mazda made up its mind-Mazda CX-50 not only has the longest (4785mm) and widest (1920mm) body size of its class, but also has a wheelbase close to that of a medium-sized SUV, reaching an astonishing 2815 mm.

The leapfrog size brings the same horizontal rolling space performance to Mazda CX-50. Let's talk about a key indicator first: after the North American version is increased by 55mm, the rear legroom becomes extremely spacious, and you can easily cross your legs even if you are lying in the back seat. There is also a small surprise, the middle platform has been greatly reduced, and this change has made the leg space of the middle seat jump to the mainstream level of the same level.

The moment I opened the trunk of Mazda CX-50, I was moved by the "detail control" Mazda: the partition layout was adopted and the curtains were standard. Even the low ground distance of 730mm and the ultra-low rear entrance height of 10mm are redesigned for the height of users in China. When the whole family travels, there is no pressure to put outdoor equipment in the standard volume of 435L; After the second level, the trunk jumped to a depth of 1900mm, and a big bed landscape room with mattress change was paved.

"The most precious thing in a car is design, and users buy not products, but experiences". This is the most essential difference between a civilian car selling configuration and a luxury car selling experience. Imagine such a scene: under the starry sky in Shan Ye, a family is lying beautifully, and the Daishan Mountain outside the window is picturesque. In the background music flowing from the BOSE stereo, we can pour out our hearts and listen to the chirping of frogs. Isn't this the happiness we crave most? Oh, yes, Mazda CX-50 is not only equipped with a panoramic skylight with high transparency, but also has a leading width of 767mm at the same level.

Freedom of soul, safety first.

One-day Mazda, lifelong Mazda. "Man and horse in one" is probably the most unique interpretation of driving control on this planet. Others started by studying the wheels, but Mazda started by studying the driver's sitting posture. Therefore, Mazda's good driving has nothing to do with the size of the car body and the driver's figure.

Mazda CX-50 also inherits the driving control core of "man-horse integration": head-up cockpit, excellent vision, solid but concise T-shaped console, buttons convenient for blind people to operate with fine damping, exquisite leather mechanical bumper ... every element is inducing my driving desire.

Although my height is only 1.58 meters, I don't feel any pressure when sitting in the driver's seat. The secret is that there is a movable slide rail under the seat, and the front and back/up and down adjustment range reaches 260mm and 50mm respectively. As for the seat configuration, I can only say that it looks good: the main driver is equipped with 10 electric adjustment (6-way auxiliary driver), the front and rear rows are equipped with backrest heating function, and the rear seats also support three-speed adjustment. The main driver also arranged a popular seat memory function.

The experience in the back row is just the opposite: the soft seats in the middle and hard seats on both sides not only make you comfortable, but also give you enough support. Moreover, the rear seat cushion is long, and the leg space is extremely wide. Even if the "long-legged Ouba" with a height of 1.8 meters bumps for a long time, it will not feel wronged and tired.

As a huge driving control system, "man-horse integration" involves not only the seat, but also the whole vehicle linkage such as power, steering, chassis and body stability. In terms of power, Mazda CX-50 currently provides 2.0L and 2.5L fuel power (ICE/HEV power will be provided in the future), matching the 6AT gearbox. Don't underestimate the strength of this 6AT. After the precise adjustment of Mazda power engineer, it will not lose to 8AT in transmission efficiency, shift speed and ride comfort.

The key point is that this 2.5L Chuangchi Blue Sky Engine is also equipped with a black technology-intelligent non-inductive cylinder shifting technology. Intelligent cylinder changing technology was mostly used in V6 and other large-displacement vehicles before, in order to save fuel. However, Mazda has optimized this technology, which can change cylinders in a wider speed range of 1000-3000 rpm, and at the same time, with the help of brand-new inclined vortex accelerated combustion technology and EGR exhaust gas recirculation technology, fuel economy is improved. It is worth mentioning that the machine is also equipped with CPA centrifugal pendulum shock absorber, which can offset the switching vibration of 4 /2 cylinders to the greatest extent and reduce noise. Simply put, this engine has two personalities. You can continue to be excited when the fire of cylinder 4 is fully open; Switch to cylinder 2, and it becomes docile and peaceful. At this time, its biggest duty is to save fuel.

As mentioned earlier, Mazda CX-50 is the widest SUV in its class, so it is called "mountain wide-body SUV". The ultra-wide body makes it more stable when driving in the wild, even if it encounters crosswind, it also increases the difficulty of handling. It doesn't matter. Mazda, who knows how to drive and control, has developed a series of formulas for it: 13.4: 1, which is comparable to the steering level of a sports car; Thanks to the GVC PLUS acceleration vector control system, this large-size SUV has the ultimate cornering performance, and with the high-performance lightweight chassis, it provides all-round travel fun.

Mazda has never considered the cost of safety investment. In view of Mazda CX-50' s long-term field work, Mazda has once again raised the upper limit of passive safety redundancy: high-strength steel accounts for 58.59%, adopts a high-rigid body structure with a safe closed loop, seven airbags and 65,438+000% side air curtains for automobile doors and windows to save lives at critical moments; The front and rear anti-collision steel beams are upgraded to hot-formed steel beams, 1800MPa, which is the strongest at the same level. There are as many as 77 pieces of steel (including skylight beams) with hardness above 980MPa. The peak load-bearing capacity of the roof is as high as 10. 13 tons, which is equivalent to the weight of two elephants and a rhinoceros.

Maybe you are not interested in the above boring content, it doesn't matter, just remember one thing-Mazda CX-50 passed with a straight A (G) in the 2022 North American IIHSTOPSAFETYPICK+(TSP+) top safety assessment.

It is worth mentioning that Mazda CX-50 is equipped with a new generation of L2-class i-ACTIVSENSE intelligent safe driving assistance system, with more than ten system functions such as full-speed domain MRCC adaptive cruise, lane keeping and other mainstream functions, while providing 360 full screen, 3D panoramic images and other advanced configurations. Obviously, the safe and intelligent driving equipment that Mazda once lacked was made up by Mazda CX-50.

Let's talk about it finally.

There are two kinds of car companies in the world, one likes education and the other is willing to be moved. Mazda undoubtedly belongs to the latter. It says "Cold data, warm scene". And the only way to solve thousands of scenes is to dig into the details.

Mazda CX-50 brings Mazda's spirit of "detail control" to the extreme, and gives several examples: the aspect ratio of the screen is set to 2 1:9, because it is the most labor-saving to look at the eyeball from left to right in ergonomics; The position of wireless charging is inclined, because it can reduce the pressure, and it is easier to take it when exposed to 5CM; There are three sets of air conditioners at the same level: automatic, dual-zone and constant temperature, but the air conditioners need to add defogging and waist blowing at luxury car level; Even a small configuration like a wiper is a major safety issue in Mazda's eyes. I would rather spend 800 yuan to equip every car with intelligent rain-sensing boneless wipers-this is the lovely and paranoid Mazda.

Look at the details and build a good car with your heart. With the strength of six high-value products, Mazda CX-50 achieved initial success in the small order stage. Since March 16, its cumulative orders have exceeded 10000.

Of course, good products must be accompanied by good prices. Based on the price changes of Mazda CX-5 after its official downgrade, I predict that the pre-sale price range of Mazda CX-50 should be between17-230,000. If the prediction comes true, Mazda CX-50 will become the annual explosion in compact SUV, which may be no suspense.
