Bitcar Original Mazda CX-50 has It completed its debut in China on December 15 and will be produced in China at Changan Mazda in 2023. This car is built on Changan Mazda's newly developed petrol-electric platform. In the future, it will be a new generation model for domestic Mazda in the mid-to-high-end SUV market. Now let us study it through the official pictures that have been released.
Appearance: Soul-dynamic design and off-road style perfectly blended
As the second product in Mazda's "0" product series, the CX-50 is equipped with Mazda's new generation platform technology and the new "soul movement" design concept. Since its birth, this concept of Mazda has injected new vitality into all its models, and it even makes people feel that it is an uncommon core brand that takes car design aesthetics to the extreme.
Although Mazda's design has always been praised by the industry, the first impression of the CX-50 is a bit strange. It is not as sophisticated, light and dynamic as the traditional Mazda. This car obviously has a tough and even strong style, and it has a certain sense of off-road vehicle. So how does Mazda blend these two feelings?
Looking at this CX-50, the front shape is different from other Mazda SUV models, with many square and thick lines added. The size of the headlights is further reduced compared to the body, but combined with the circular lamp cavity design and Lenses, the "eyes" of the vehicle are still bright and clear. The completely blackened grille adopts a popular horizontal dot matrix design, and the black trim strips on the lower half of the grille further emphasize the tough style. The lower half of the front of the car and the front bumper are almost all made of black, which is large and thick.
Whether it is "Soul Red" or "Platinum Steel Gray", Mazda's car paints are widely praised, and the uniqueness brought by the "craftsmanship" also gives the brand brilliance. On this CX-50, the main color of the car body no longer only pursues radiant sophistication, but has a rough texture of "wild" and "natural". This is also consistent with the tone of the overall model product yearning for a free and easy life.
On the side of the CX-50's body, we do not see the popular fastback design, but continue the style of the front. From the lines to the shape, it is square and powerful, and you can feel the practicality brought by the large and thick body. Mazda never neglects the details on the side. You can see a line extending from the hood and from the C-pillar to the taillight, which makes the light and shadow effect on the side more abundant. At the same time, there is a sculptural-like under the C-pillar. The bulge not only enhances the strength but also improves the viewing quality.
It is also worth highlighting the four wheel arches of the CX-50. Compared with the traditional Mazda styling, it is even a bit "unique" and has a unique and eye-catching shape. It is as powerful as strong limbs.
Coming to the rear of the car, I think the most eye-catching thing is the large rear bumper, which is full of the visual experience of a hardcore SUV. The two exhaust outlets and fenders on both sides are also very wide. The silver matte color scheme is very eye-catching and makes the tail more layered. The CX-50 is equipped with air guides on both sides of the rear of the car, which not only makes the details more eye-catching, but also creates some vehicle performance capabilities. Viewed from the rear, the outline of the entire car body is thick and powerful, integrating Mazda's fine points very appropriately.
Let’s talk about the interior. Although the domestic version of the CX-50 has not yet released the interior, we can also get a rough idea from the overseas version. If the appearance of the CX-50 has been significantly adjusted, the interior will obviously continue to maintain Mazda's usual simple styling. The functional divisions of each part are clear and clear. Although the central control screen is not so mainstream in size, it does not affect normal use at all. On the contrary, it makes the entire car layout more harmonious without being overly prominent. Appropriate stitching decoration also adds bright colors to the interior of the car.
Editor's comment: From the styling point of view, the Mazda CX-50 has hard-core elements that are not common in domestic Mazda brand SUV models. Compared with common compact SUVs, it is more "big", from the overall shape to the paint color. , which are very suitable for the popular outdoor wild travel style. But looking at the details, it is still the traditional Mazda, with elegant lines and exquisite outlines. It can be said that from a design perspective, this model will become a beautiful "stepping stone" in the brand's mid-to-high-end layout.
