More details on the Mazda Kazamai Concept

After the Japanese company announced that it would officially unveil this concept at the Moscow Motor Show and that it would give more details about the SUV today, we eagerly awaited the release of the information.

The crossover is characterised by its flowing lines, which express the evolution of the Nagare spirit developed by the company. The design is also said to have a high level of emotional appeal thanks to its unusual proportions, which unfortunately will not make it possible to see it on the streets.

For that reason, the car has only five cooling vents in the grille and wheels that are far from proportionate with 22-inch rims. Even so, the combination of all these add-ons together with the elegant roof design makes the concept look as real as possible.

The heart of the Kazamai is a 2.0L petrol engine with direct injection (a system also used in the CX-7). It also includes combustion control technology, a variable valve control system and next-generation catalytic converters that significantly reduce emission levels.

The SUV’s weight has been reduced by around 100 kg, as most of its structure is made from aluminium alloy, and plastic has even been used for the engine cover, the panels and the wheel arches.

And to finish off the impression that the car is ready for the streets, it is fitted with a comprehensive personal safety system that includes an anti-rollover stability control system, a blind-spot monitor for lane changes, a pre-collision system that warns of nearby vehicles, and a new automatic alert system that warns the driver in case of an emergency.
