Mazda will debut three takes on the CX-5 crossover at the SEMA show in Las Vegas. The automaker has released three sketches to give enthusiasts a hint of what to expect at the event. The crossover is a sharp-looking vehicle in stock form, so it isn’t surprising that Mazda decided to steer clear of massive body kits and stick with mild cosmetic modifications.
CX-5 180
The first of the three CX-5s, dubbed the “180,” has a distinctly West Coast flavor. Meant to showcase the CX-5′s sporty spirit, the crossover is fitted with a roof rack to carry a surfboard or skis. The body is wrapped in a stylized topographical map of California’s Big Bear Lake and Point Dume state beach.
CX-5 Dempsey
Actor and motorsports enthusiast Patrick Dempsey races a Mazda RX-8, but the CX-5 Dempsey drives is designed to allow him to get off the track and enjoy a bit of road biking.
A Thule cargo box sits on the roof of the CX-5 Dempsey, while a sleek road bicycle rides on the back. The all-wheel-drive crossover is powered by Mazda’s Skyactiv-D 2.2-liter diesel engine.
CX-5 Urban
Whereas the other two takes on the CX-5 emphasize its outdoor-loving character, the CX-5 Urban is designed to operate within city limits. Its most striking feature is its paint job. While the car is swathed in the matte finish so commonly found at SEMA, the surface is divided into jagged triangular patches with distinct colors and patterns.
Mazda says this surface treatment lends “overwhelming stealth” to the vehicle-odd for a paint scheme designed to be eye-catching. The CX-5′s grille, wheels and headlights are accented in a color Mazda calls “ore.”
