First Drive: 2020 Mazda CX-8 2.5 Skyactiv-G AWD
The story of the CX-8 is a rather unremarkable one. Mazda once had an MPV, the Mazda8, which was actually marketed with the tagline, “the idea of a sportscar – inherited by a minivan.” It was, in every sense of the word, a mom mobile that that very tagline was delivered by a middle-aged woman in Japan. But as the company shifted its attention to all things KODO and Skyactiv, they found themselves with an opportunity: should they make something pleasing to soccer moms or should they make a three-row SUV? Focused group studies and likely, simpler engineering costs dictated the latter, and thus, the CX-8 was born.

Review: 2020 Mazda2 1.5 Elite Sedan
In case you missed it, Mazda has been undergoing a premium transformation. While the movement is still anchored pretty much on their award-winning design, they’ve also managed to level up in terms of trim and standard equipment. Having said that, a handful of their cars got stuck in no land’s land—neither premium nor affordable. One such vehicle is the 2020 Mazda2.

Mazda PHL Launches CX-5 2.0 Pro
Mazda’s goal of establishing an all-SKYACTIV lineup in the country takes another step closer to fruition with the Philippine launch of the Mazda CX-5 Pro. The award-winning CX-5 model has been the Japanese carmaker’s best-selling nameplate on the local market since its 2012 launch. Now, this new midlevel variant, which slots in between the CX-5 FWD and the CX-5 AWD Sport, provides crossover buyers another compelling reason to pick Mazda’s entry in the segment by pairing the lower-displacement SKYACTIV-G engine with the i-STOP idling system.

2017 Mazda3 Speed: Long-Term Test Wrap-Up
Mazda Philippines basically put money where their mouth is by letting us drive a 2017 Mazda3 for a year. They likely knew what they were getting: an honest look into Mazda ownership without any pretenses. Now, four hundred twelve days and 7,510 kilometers later, this is our verdict: Mazda, both as a maker of driver-centric vehicles and as a provider of aftersales service for said vehicles has come a long, long way.

Review: 2012 Mazda6, CX-7 and CX-9
Photos by Ulysses Ang |
Normally, when one thinks of the Mazda
brand, the image of a young driver, perhaps bordering on “boy-racer” comes to
mind. Mind you, with products like the Mazda 2, 3 and the MX-5, that’s not such
a bad thing. However, bringing back the love in everyday driving goes way
beyond the “go-fast, live-fast” mantra that’s been instilled, somewhat
unofficially, to the Mazda brand. In fact, beyond the compacts and sports cars,
Mazda is home to three bright driving gems, all of which show an equal dose of
sophistication and speed; comfort and handling fun; practicality and attitude:
the Mazda6, CX-7, and CX-9.
Driving and comparing Mazda’s executive
sedan, five-seater and seven-seater crossovers may seem somewhat odd given the
different market segments they’re supposed to cater to. However, after driving
these cars back-to-back-to-back, one thing’s clear: they’re all machined from
the same magical piece of Mazda magic. The sheet metal alone serves as an
indication to the sort of experience waiting to be discovered. Whether it’s the
6, CX-7 or CX-9, they’re equally aggressive and expressive without being
comical or over-the-top. The flowing lines and taut features continue to remain
fresh in the respective segments they’re in; while the squinting headlamps and
large, smiling grille clearly ties them together as one family.

5 Things You May Have Missed About The Mazda CX-8
It comes as a surprise to many that Pickup-based Passenger Vehicles or PPVs are now getting quite expensive. Although they’re loaded with more features than ever, near top-of-the-line variants have crossed well into the P 2-million mark. With that in mind, more choices open up, including those that weren’t originally within reach of those looking for a family-oriented SUV.
