Is Zoom Zoom On The Way Out For Mazda?

Call a doctor. The "zoom-zoom" brand has suffered a zoomectomy. The * *2013 Mazda CX-5 crossover SUV achieves outstanding fuel economy, but at the cost of the sporty performance that defined Mazda for years. It is, at best, a one-zoom vehicle.

The CX-5 showcases a suite of fuel-saving features Mazda calls Skyactiv. They work, but the stylish crossover needs an injection of the spirited character that is the main reason people buy Mazdas.

this thing is one of the slowest crossovers in its class, so zom zoom should be the last thing they try to advertise. 0-60 for the manual is almost 10 seconds, can't imagine how slow the automatic is.
