In true Japanese fashion, Mazda’s implemented the hornet headlight look that we’ve seen exclusively within the Kawasaki motorsports line.

Hiroshima’s Revenge to every American SUV that sacrificed build quality and shoddy R&D, as under the hood, these big ol' NA engines breathe without the need for a perky turbo. This year’s model couldn’t care less about fancy cylinder deactivation or auto start-start, thanks to a “chip shortage.” Throw in a real automatic that actually shifts, not one of those rubber-band CVTs, and you, Mazda, is very underrated.
