The Mazda CX-7 Grand Touring

It is a clear day and you feel the summer breeze trickling down your shirt. You feel the dash of the wind in your hair and little pockets of light are scattered on the road. But you feel a low rumble growling in the distance. You look around to find out what that is. It is a machine sprinting closer and closer. Its paint reflected on the sunlight. Its steady rumble crawled over the road. It glided by in the blink of an eye.

The CX-7 is powered by the same 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine in the Mazdaspeed6 sport sedan. In the CX-7 crossover it has found success in the Mazdaspeed6 failure. The engine is the same but the results are different. Although there are flaws it is easy to adjust the accelerator pedal, utilize the manual stick shift for the 6 speed automatic.

The Grand Touring has a beautiful interior with leather seats, heated seats, automatic climate control and a stereotypically Mazda design that has a navigation system screen.

The heated seats are an amazing addition to the Mazda CX – 7. During winter you can turn up the heat on your seat to feel comfortable in your Mazda 7.

The CX-7’s turbocharged engine gives a little something something to the cars power. It adds an extra dash of speed and agility. It is also a front wheel drive vehicle combined with a traction control system. Its tires are for any kind of terrain and any kind of season that are enough to get you by in the tightest situations on the road.

The cosmetic surgeries done to the CX -7 are not exactly what you are looking for. The windshield and hood has the same design as most minivans which steal away from its sporty appeal. The interior design looks amazing and is proportionately done that make the CX – 7 a joy to drive. The front design of the car gives you a good look on the road and makes your peripheral vision better.

Driving the CX-7 is comfortable for the easy going and sporty drivers but don’t expect too much because you will be disappointed. The drawback on your driving experience is that the CX – 7 does not drive well over potholes or broken roads.

The turbocharged CX-7 will not amaze you but it will deliver. The interior and exterior design, contribute to the overall aesthetic of the vehicle. In the end the decision will fall on you if you want to purchase it for the $33,635 price tag.
