2008 Mazda CX-7 Una SUV crossover con Zoom que compite con la CR-V | starMedia

Conclusiones

La Mazda CX-7 es una competente crossover utility cuando se mide contra la competencia. Es un poco más pequeña en el interior que algunas de las otras, pero no todos necesitan o quieren espacio para siete pasajeros. Lo que tiene es el look deportivo de Mazda y una buena medida de las características de manejo deportivo de la marca. La CX-7 cuenta con un motor extraordinariamente vigoroso, una transmisión igualmente complaciente, y está disponible con tracción delantera o tracción total. Esto hace que bien valga la pena echarle un vistazo.
