上一代CX-5被消費者批評隔音不好，Mazda原廠有聽到了。

新CX-5隔音寧靜度大進步，已經不輸其他同級休旅車了。

Autoblog說在行經「聖地牙哥」高速公路的水泥路面時,新CX-5車內比美規新CR-V還安靜
，而美規新CR-V的車室已經算蠻安靜了。

車輛在行經水泥路面時，輪胎噪音會變得很吵，是車室隔音工程的一大考驗。

The new CX-5 is indeed incredibly quiet, even on San Diego's notoriously
loud corrugated concrete freeways. It is quiet for a Mazda – a brand
previously known for the exact opposite – and the entire segment.
Even the fairly quiet 2017 Honda CR-V we drove on the same freeways on the way
to San Diego couldn't match it.


新CX-5外型更性感美麗，內裝更有高級感，新增更多配備和功能，但新CX-5的車身尺吋
、軸距、引擎等規格卻和上一代極為相似....

there's sexier styling, a more premium cabin, and additional features,
but the dimensions and engine specs look awfully similar.


上一代CX-5可說是同級休旅車中，追求駕馭的好選擇，現在新CX-5更棒了。

一上路，新CX-5的電動輔助方向盤 馬上就給人深刻的印象，它的方向盤力道很線性，
重手程度給人很自然、有連貫性的感覺。

新CX-5方向盤只有原廠單一設定，並沒有多種設定模式，高速和低速行駛，
輔助力道也不會有太大的差別變化。

(註: 新CX-5變速箱和油門有提供Sport運動模式)

The previous CX-5 was arguably the driver's choice in the segment and
version 2.0 sends the ball further downfield. The electric power steering
immediately impresses – its effort is linear and its weighting feels natural
and consistent. There are no different settings; no wildly differing effort
levels based on speed.


與上一代相比,新CX-5轉向和懸吊系統看起來變化不大，但懸吊和轉向表現更有細膩感
，新懸吊有調校的比較舒適，也減緩了行車震動感，路面抓地力更好。

The steering and suspension didn't see big changes. Rather,
Coleman and friends enacted more fine-tooth-comb improvements intended to
better road holding, increase comfort, and reduce vibration.


Mazda的G-Vectoring科技，有改善新CX-5的轉向反應，減去多餘不需要的方向盤轉動
，讓你變成一位開的更好、更順的好駕駛。

不過這只是一點點小小的微幅提升，並不是白天與黑夜那樣的大幅差別。

This improves steering response, reduces excessive input, and thus makes you a better and smoother driver. This isn't a night-and-day upgrade, but every little bit counts to Mazda.


◇油門反應和變速箱換檔都很棒

新CX-5 2.5的油門反應很直接，不像許多同級對手有渦輪遲滯慢半拍的問題。

The throttle is also absolutely spot-on,.......it never has to deal with
the sort of lag inherent to the turbocharged engines found in many competitors.


在Sport運動模式下，新CX-5油門反應很快，卻又不會太過躁進。

CX-5變速箱的反應也很急切迅速，在踩油門加速和煞車減速時，
CX-5變速箱的動作都會隨即跟上，幫你降檔或升檔，它的6AT真是棒極了 (It's fantastic
)。

相形之下，同級對手的CVT變速箱就很糟糕 (a CVT would be, um, terrible.)。

新CX-5油門和變速箱反應俐落，這方面的動態特質有Porsche Macan的味道
(dynamic qualities)，同級休旅車無人出其右。

如果有人想找一台有駕駛樂趣的家庭用車，Autoblog說新CX-5就是這樣的好車。


◇油耗普普

新CX-5 2.5L 前驅版的油耗並沒有很好，市區 8.9km/L，高速 13.2km/L，
比美規CR-V 2.4L 前驅版還耗油。

這是新CX-5油門反應快，變速箱動作又快又聰明，所要付出的代價，魚與熊掌不可兼得
。

(註: Autoblog只有說新CX-5「油門反應和變速箱動作」的動態特質很棒，不是指操控。
CX-5操控水準和Macan差很大，兩者天差地遠，完全沒得比。)

throttle response can be altered by flicking the Sport toggle, but it only
makes responses that much better without venturing into manic. The accompanying
transmission changes result in an eagerness to downshift for both acceleration
and deceleration. It's fantastic.

The best comparison for these dynamic qualities? Porsche. Seriously, and we
thought that before Coleman revealed that Team Mazda specifically benchmarked
the 911's throttle response (after that study, of course). However, it's just
that good. Much like with the Macan, you completely forget you're driving
a tall, truck-like thing. If you're being dragged kicking and screaming out of
a fun car and into a family vehicle, boy have we got a suggestion for you.

At least there's the smart six-speed automatic, which Mazda quite happily
stuck to. Adding more ratios results in "shifting gears every time you touch
the throttle" and a CVT would be, um, terrible. (Our words, but one reads
between the lines.) So, sticking with the six-speed and opting for right-now
throttle response were decisions made for performance with the knowledge that
class-best fuel economy wouldn't be possible. In fact, it's down a bit.


==============
另外兩家美國汽車雜誌，也很稱讚新CX-5。

==============

美國Car and Driver稱讚新CX-5是同級最佳駕馭休旅車，它在其他方面也比上一代進步

The best compact SUV to drive gets better at doing other things, too.

新CX-5總評

優點
老練頂尖的行車品質和操控，優雅的座艙內裝，

更多功能實用性，外型迷人很好看

Sophisticated ride and handling, classy cabin, expanded functionality,
great curb appeal.

缺點
新CX-5可以配更大馬力的引擎，

油耗數據普普。

Could use more power, fuel economy is only so-so.

THE BEST NEVER REST

儘管新CX-5避震器調校的比較軟，更加兼顧到行車品質舒適性。
但新CX-5開起來不會像船一樣有漂浮感，也不會過度側傾。

Despite re-engineering its dampers to have less friction, thus resulting
a more compliant ride, the CX-5 doesn't float or wallow—ever.

真的！(Indeed)

新CX-5仍舊保有「帶給人自信感的操控」這個正字標記，新修改的方向機也有更直接的
轉向感受 (新方向機的轉向齒桿緊密地裝在副車架上)。

新CX-5方向盤變得比較稍微重手一點，不過這是件好事。

在同級休旅車當中，新CX-5真的有它獨到的特質 -- 隔音好、舒適的行車品質，
又有領先同級車的操控性。

Indeed, Mazda kept the CX-5's trademark confident handling (now with
fluid-filled control-arm bushings) and enhanced steering directness (now with
a rigid-mounted rack). The steering weight has become a little heavier this
time around, but that's a good thing.

It really is a unique quality in this class to offer such an isolated,
comfortable ride but retain class-leading handling.

==心得==

個人認為改善隔音工程，高速公路寧靜度更勝美規CR-V，是新CX-5最大賣點。

其次是內裝質感升級、增加新功能，例如後座角度可調，後座有四個USB插座...等等。

新CX-5在看不到的無形部份也更加精進，

新調校的避震器，有提升行車舒適性，在軟硬之間，新CX-5拿捏的更為細膩。

新調校的6速自排變速箱更加犀利，反應快又聰明。

CX-5車體的「抗扭曲剛性」比上一代增加15.5%，高達31,000Nm/Deg，能提升操控反應。

新CX-5的操控仍保有同級休旅車佼佼者的高水準。
