2022 Mazda CX-5 facelift to be previewed in Japan

KUALA LUMPUR: Mazda revealed the all-new 2022 CX-5 facelift last month. The car in its new version featured a sharp design language and was seen in a brand new exterior splash called Zircon Sand. While Malaysians will have to wait until 2022 (or more) to see the new CX-5 in person, Japan will get to see it first.

2022 Mazda CX-5 facelift public preview is limited to individuals who signed up for the company's free membership service, Club Mazda. Also, the band will be filling up a few spots via raffle. Thus making it a very exclusive event.

Mazda Japan website showcases a teaser image of the car wherein we get to see the horizontally-spaced LED headlights. It is followed by a disclaimer saying the image is based on an 'overseas model', however, the Japanese-spec CX-5 facelift will be more or less similar to the model revealed last month.

The 2022 Mazda CX-5 facelift preview will be held in three Japanese cities. The schedule is as follows -

  • Yokohama - 30 to 31st Oct
  • Hiroshima - 6 to 7th Nov
  • Osaka - 13 to 14th Nov

2022 Mazda CX-5 facelift specs

The selected members can not only view the CX-5 facelift but also experience it first-hand by getting inside the vehicle. It is to be noted that the display unit is a prototype and not a production-spec model.

What to expect from the CX-5 facelift?

Apart from a new sharp design language and new exterior colour, the facelifted model will benefit from an improved suspension that will elevate the car's comfort level by manifold.

2022 Mazda CX-5 facelift features

On the engine configuration front, the CX-5 facelift is likely to retain the same powertrain as the pre-facelift model that includes -

  • A naturally-aspirated 2.0-litre petrol unit making 162 PS/213 Nm
  • A naturally-aspirated 2.5-litre petrol mill generating 192 PS/258 Nm
  • A turbocharged 2.5-litre petrol powertrain churning 230 PS/420Nm
  • A turbocharged 2.2-litre diesel engine popping 173 PS/420 Nm

The engine configuration will depend on the market the car is offered in, for instance in Japan, Mazda will offer all four engines across the CX-5 19 variants.

The ongoing Malaysian-spec model is offered in all four powertrains across five variants, however, we'll have to wait a little longer for the facelift model.

Japan will get the 2022 CX-5 facelift by the end of 2021, as for Malaysia, it is expected to arrive next year. However, stay tuned for updates as the auto market keeps on surprising us.
