  • Page 2 An SUV like no other Here at Mazda we like to do things a lit tle differently and defy current thinking. It’s this spirit of individuality that got us producing some of the most exciting cars on the road today. Like the all-new Mazda CX-5 which is the f irst car to have the new ‘KODO - Soul of Motion’...

  • Page 9 TechnicAL Combination of light feel at low-to-mid speeds and stability at high speeds When the yaw gain (the force that turns a vehicle) is set at a high level to en- hance the car’s nimbleness at the low-to-mid speeds, it tends to become ex- cessive at high speeds, producing an oversensitive response in the car’s movements.
  • Page 10 TechnicAL The rear suspension trailing link attachment position was also shifted up- wards. In this way, the direction of movement of the trailing links is adjusted to more easily absorb longitudinal impact shocks from the road, contributing to improved ride comfort. At the same time, as this also prevents the rear of the vehicle from rising, the vehicle has increased stability when stopping, which helps to reduce stopping distance.

  • Page 13 Body A new-generation lightweight, highly-rigid body with outstanding crash safe- ty performance and high rigidity for greater driving pleasure • High rigidity and lightness (8 percent lighter, 30 percent more rigid) • Outstanding crash safety performance and lightness • A "straight structure" in which each part of the frame is configured to be as straight as possible.
  • Page 14 Body The upperbody also functions as a constituent part of the continuously bond- ed framework. Specifically, the suspension mounting positions at the front and rear of the upperbody are directly bonded with the underbody framework as a “dual brace”. Joins framework directly to underbody In addition, by creating four ring structures for the upperbody that includes the roof rail and B-pillar, and the entire reinforcement area of the underbody,...
  • Page 15 Body of the body, and from the front frame to the A-pillar. In particular, the upper branch frame, which diverts the load to the A-pillar, is a multi-functional part that also works to cancel the upward motion of the front frame. To create this kind of path, parts such as door hinges, which do not normally play a role in absorbing shock, are important elements in the design.
  • Page 16: Body Structure

    Body Weld bonded sections Increased spot weld points Body structure In terms of materials, we have greatly increased our use of high-tensile steel, which is lightweight and has excellent strength and rigidity. In the new body , high-tensile steel, is used for most of the main parts, and this has resulted in significant weight reduction benefits.

  • Page 18 Body Characteristics of Ultra High-Tensile Steel Plates • Ultra high-tensile steel plates have enhanced tensile strength compared to previous high-tensile steel plates. • Because the strength is maintained even though the plates are thin- walled, the ultra high-tensile steel plates are used for the frames and the main frame parts which form the cabin, reducing the weight of the vehicle.
  • Page 19 Body Triple H-shaped structure • An H-shaped structure has been adopted in which reinforcements are equipped in the floor, side frame, and roof, and each connection area is strengthened. • The combination of these three structural areas provide the strong triple H-shaped structure.
  • Page 20 Body The front side frame, front B frame and rear side frame are made into straight forms. Rear side frame Front B frame Front side frame The front side frame is supported by the side sill, front B frame and side mem- ber.
  • Page 21 Body Construction • The bonnet stiffener positioned at the front end of the bonnet is shaped so that it collapses easily during an impact. In addition, there is an impact absorbing space which facilitates impact absorption. • The large space between the bonnet and the engine facilitates impact absorption.
  • Page 22: Restraint System

    Restraint System Airbag system service warnings Airbag module inspection • Inspecting an airbag module using a tester can operate (deploy) the airbag module, which may cause serious injury. Do not use a tester to inspect an airbag module. Always use the onboard diagnostic function to diagnose the airbag module for malfunctions.
  • Page 23 Restraint System • A live (undeployed) airbag module placed with its deployment surface to ground is dangerous. If the airbag module were to accidentally operate (deploy), it could cause serious injury. Always place a live (undeployed) airbag module with its deployment surface up. Side Air Bag Module Handling •...
  • Page 24 Restraint System • Because a sensor is built into the SAS control module, once the air bags and pre-tensioner seat belts have operated (deployed) due to a collision or other causes, the SAS control module must be replaced with a new one even if the used one does not have any visible external damage or defor- mation.
  • Page 25 Restraint System • Because a sensor is built into the side air bag sensor, once the air bag has operated (deployed) due to a collision or other causes, the side air bag sensor must be replaced with a new one even if the used one does not have any visible external damage or deformation.
  • Page 26 Restraint System Air Bag Module, Pre-tensioner Seat Belt Reuse • Even if an air bag module or a pre-tensioner seat belt does not operate (deploy) in a collision and does not have any external signs of damage, it may have been damaged internally, which may cause improper operation. Before reusing a live (undeployed) air bag module and the pre-tensioner seat belts, always use the on-board diagnostic to diagnose the air bag module and the pre-tensioner seat belts to verify that they have no mal-...

  • Page 28 Restraint System • If an air bag is deployed due to a vehicle collision, the SAS control module sends an air bag deployment signal to each control module. • When the signal is received, each control module performs the following controls to reduce secondary injuries caused by the vehicle collision.
  • Page 29 Restraint System • If the degree of impact detected by side air bag sensor No. 1 or No. 2 and the crash sensor built into the SAS control module exceeds the set value during a side collision to the vehicle, the SAS control module sends an operation (deployment) signal to the side air bag module and curtain air bag module.
  • Page 30 Restraint System Function • The secondary collision reduction (SCR) functions are categorized as fol- lows: — Hazard warning (SCR hazard) which flashes the hazard warning lights to warn surrounding vehicles when the vehicle is collision. 1. The hazard warning (SCR hazard) is equipped as standard. —...
