Mazda Developing Small SUV

Companies like Mazda want to tackle the growing Crossover / Small SUV trend in automotive by introducing updated, smaller SUVs.

Reports from Japan reveal that Mazda Motors is planning on launching small SUVs in the next couple of years, with much speculation surrounded names and powertrains for each. Rumors online suggest this Mazda mini-SUV could be dubbed CX-3. This SUV will reportedly use a version of the MAZDA3 undercarriage, and also contain the Japanese auto maker’s all-new, highly advanced Sky-D and Sky-G engines. Mazda already has fans of smaller car lovers in their grasp, with vehicles like the hit CX-7 and their newly introduced in the United States MAZDA2 hatchback. And even while sales of larger vehicles continues to fall in the US, Mazda’s larger CX-9 is still recording record figures for a vehicle in that class. Mazda’s compact SUV will make an appearance soon, with sales expected to begin sometime in 2012.
