2023 CX-5 goes on sale with a starting MSRP1 of $30,900 and will arrive at dealerships this summer
RICHMOND HILL, ON , July 26, 2022 /CNW/ - Mazda Canada Inc. (MCI) announces pricing and packaging for the 2023 CX-5 – the brand's best-selling vehicle in Canada . For 2023, the CX-5 is available with an all-new Rhodium White Metallic exterior premium paint colour, complimenting Mazda's Kodo design. For 2023, CX-5 models retain standard i-Activ all-wheel drive in Canada when they arrive in dealerships nationwide this fall.
1 MSRP does not include $1,950 for freight & PDE, taxes, title or additional fees. Retailers set actual sale prices.
Offered for the first time in the Canadian market, the new Rhodium White Metallic premium paint option is a unique colour born from Mazda's exclusive Takuminuri painting technology, following Soul Red Crystal and Machine Grey Metallic. Rhodium White Metallic is a pure white inspired by Japanese aesthetics finding beauty in simplicity. The paint's fine grain accentuates the shadows on the surface of the vehicle complimenting the CX-5's sculpted body lines. Mazda believes that colour is a critical part of vehicle design. It accentuates the vehicles dynamic and delicate expression while complimenting the Kodo - Soul of Motion – design theme, something Mazda takes great pride in offering its customers.
The critically acclaimed CX-5 has received numerous top industry and safety awards including the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) TOP SAFETY PICK+. In fact, the CX-5 was the first vehicle to earn a Good rating in IIHS's new, tougher side impact test and is currently the only small SUV to have earned this rating. To that end, all the engineering and safety features that contributed to these awards have been carried over to the 2023 model year as standard features. These include Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop and Go, Smart Brake Support Front, Smart City Brake Support Front, Pedestrian Detection (forward sensing), Advanced Blind Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, and Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist. These features allow CX-5 drivers to feel confident and comfortable, from the city streets to the open highway.
The 2023 Mazda CX-5 will be available in eight configurations. Each one provides customers with a well-equipped vehicle and an impressive list of standard technology and safety features designed to meet their needs while delivering the brand's renowned driving dynamics for a rewarding experience behind the wheel.
The CX-5 GX now features Mazda's Skyactiv-G 2.5-liter, four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine with cylinder deactivation as standard equipment. This efficient powertrain delivers up to 187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque with any fuel grade and is paired with a quick-shifting six-speed automatic transmission with manual mode. All CX-5 models will continue to be equipped with G-Vectoring Control Plus and the i-Activ AWD system as standard. This system continuously monitors weight distribution and shifts power to the appropriate wheels, providing drivers with near instant power delivery in any driving situation. For 2023, Mazda Intelligent Drive Select (Mi-Drive) is added to the CX-5, which enables drivers to select the most appropriate drive mode with a simple switch, offering greater control over the driving experience in a wide variety of conditions. The CX-5's Mi-Drive features Normal, Off-Road, and Sport Modes.
Drawing inspiration from our Kodo design philosophy, the CX-5 stands out in the city even at a standstill. The front bumper features a signature wing which extends outward from the front grill with a unique three-dimensional texture. The rear of the vehicle is complemented by sport inspired dual tailpipes that mesh seamlessly with the rear bumper for a premium look. The headlights and taillights each feature a pair of horizontally spaced, rectangular LED lights that are sure to draw the eye.
The CX-5 continues to be well-appointed at the standard level to help ensure the driver and its occupants have a driving experience that exceeds their expectations. Every CX-5 model includes complimentary Mazda Connected Services for two years, providing the ability for the owner to monitor and control the state of the CX-5 remotely by logging into the MyMazda app. The 10.25" full-colour center display features the latest Mazda Connect infotainment system that can be controlled with the multi-function commander knob and is integrated with Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™. Other standard features include push button start, remote keyless entry system, steering wheel-mounted audio, Bluetooth, and cruise control buttons, dual front USB inputs, four-speaker sound system, black cloth seats with three-level heating, six-way manual adjustable driver's seat and four-way manual adjustable passenger seat, electronic parking brake, rearview camera, air conditioning with manual climate controls, power windows with one-touch automatic up/down, and digital 7" LCD display in the instrument panel, which is newly standard for 2023.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -A U.S. administrative judge has ruled in favor of Illumina Inc's acquisition of cancer detection test maker Grail Inc, the U.S. maker of genetic analysis equipment said on Thursday. Michael Chappell, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's Chief Administrative Law Judge, ruled the acquisition will not hurt competition, in a blow to the FTC under President Joe Biden which challenged the deal.
As floodwaters debilitate much of Pakistan, the death toll continues to rise. Overwhelming monsoon rainfall has killed more than 1,100 people, injured at least 3,500, and flooded millions of acres of land—submerging homes, roads, and livestock in its wake.
NEW YORK (Reuters) -Starbucks Corp on Thursday named Laxman Narasimhan as its next chief executive officer, choosing an executive credited with revitalizing the maker of Lysol disinfectants to undertake a "reinvention" of the world's biggest coffee chain. Narasimhan was CEO of Reckitt, which also makes Durex condoms, Enfamil baby formula and Mucinex cold syrup. Starbucks faces a turbulent period.

Britain's antitrust regulator said Microsoft Corp's $69 billion acquisition of "Call of Duty" maker Activision Blizzard could harm competition in gaming consoles, subscription services and cloud gaming, and it needs to be investigated in depth. The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) said on Thursday the deal, the largest ever in gaming, could damage the industry if Microsoft refused to give competitors access to Activision's best-selling games. "We are concerned that Microsoft could use its control over popular games like 'Call of Duty' and 'World of Warcraft' post-merger to harm rivals, including recent and future rivals in multi-game subscription services and cloud gaming," the CMA said.
Canadians were blind-sided by their loss of purchasing power in 2022
Economists assessing the trade-off facing the Fed estimate U.S. employment could drop by anywhere from a few hundred thousand positions to as many as several million before the Fed fixes the worst outbreak of inflation in 40 years. The final tally will depend on how closely the economy follows patterns seen in recent decades, to what extent things like improved global supply chains help lower inflation, and how strict the Fed is in enforcing its 2% inflation goal. With the central bank's preferred inflation measure currently increasing at a more than a 6% annual rate, Joe Brusuelas, chief U.S. economist at RSM, a U.S.-based consulting firm, estimates it would take 5.3 million lost jobs and an unemployment rate of 6.7%, substantially above the 3.7% seen in August, to lower inflation to 2%.
Meteorological Autumn is upon us, Monday's Labor Day holiday is in view and world markets are in a sour mood. With the exception of Japan, short-term bond yields across the G7 continue to surge on a toxic mix of sky-high inflation, increasingly hawkish interest rate expectations and the prospect of a gradual withdrawal of central banks as bidders for bonds as they attempt to unwind their bloated balance sheets. The sell-off in U.S. Treasuries shows no sign of abating, with markets leaning strongly to another 75 basis point rate rise from the Federal Reserve this month, despite Thursday's surprisingly soft ADP private sector jobs report for August.
Credit Suisse plans to cut 3,200 jobs in Zurich as part of a cost-cutting drive at the bank, Swiss newspaper Blick reported on Thursday, citing an unnamed company source. German newspaper Handelsblatt said up to 4,000 jobs could be cut, including a significant part at its headquarters in Zurich, citing unnamed sources familiar with the cost-cutting plans. Credit Suisse in July named asset management boss Ulrich Koerner as its new CEO, who is tasked with scaling back investment banking and cutting more than $1 billion in costs to help the bank recover from a string of scandals and losses.
The Cangzhou city downtown section of the world's oldest and longest man-made river, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, is open to navigation for tourism on September 1 and will give visitors a chance to appreciate the masterpiece of ancient China's artificial waterway, announced an official with the Cangzhou city government of north China's Hebei Province.
"Firms and consumers alike have adopted a cautious approach to their purchasing habits over the last few months," Shreeya Patel, an economist at S&P Global, said in a statement. The Bank of Canada surprised with a 100-basis-point rate increase to July to 2.5%, with another oversized hike expected at the next decision on Sept. 7.
Sims Limited, a global leader in metal recycling, a leading provider of circular solutions for technology, and an emerging leader in renewable energy, today announced the appointment of Philip Bainbridge as an independent non-executive director effective 1 September 2022.

The Kremlin accused the European Union on Thursday of putting up barriers to the Russian energy firm Gazprom's operations, as Russia's gas exports decline and the crucial Nord Stream 1 gas pipeline is closed for maintenance. Gazprom Chief Executive Alexei Miller said on Wednesday that Western sanctions were responsible for Siemens Energy being unable to carry out regular maintenance on equipment for the Nord Stream 1 natural gas pipeline, which is currently shut for three days of maintenance.
China has said that automakers must apply for licences to collect geographic data using sensors on their intelligent vehicles, highlighting Beijing's security concerns about the growing sophistication of smart cars' mapping capabilities. The statement, a clarification of China's surveying and mapping law, reflects regulators efforts to prevent any scenario where highly-detailed visual data collected by smart cars could fall into the hands of hostile foreign actors. Automakers and developers of autonomous driving software should either apply for mapping licences or ask a licensed company to collect, store, transform and process geographic data, according to the statement published on Tuesday by the Ministry of Natural Resources.
