What is the minimum ground clearance of the Mazda CX-5?
2 Answers
Mazda CX-5 Comfort Edition model has a minimum ground clearance of 215mm, while the Luxury Edition, Premium Edition, and Navigation Edition models have a minimum ground clearance of 210mm. Below is some related information about Mazda: Design Philosophy: The 2019 Mazda CX-5 adopts the "KODO: Soul of Motion" design philosophy, featuring sharp contours on the front end. The narrow headlights and large U-shaped grille enhance the visual impact of the front face. The streamlined body exudes a sense of dynamism, and the slightly rearward A-pillar design extends the visual center of gravity backward, creating a poised and powerful stance. Ground Clearance: The minimum ground clearance of sedans is generally not less than 110mm and not more than 150mm. From the perspective of sedan characteristics, if the ground clearance can exceed 130mm, the vehicle's passability is relatively good. However, stability may be compromised at higher speeds. Conversely, the smaller the ground clearance (below 110mm), the better the stability at high speeds.
I'm a mom of two, and our family drives a CX-5. Last week when we went for a picnic with the kids, I specifically measured it—the ground clearance is about 215mm when the car is empty, so my child could easily reach a soccer ball that rolled underneath. It’s sufficient for daily rural road driving, but last month when the trunk was packed with a stroller for a trip back home, the exhaust pipe guard scraped over a speed bump. A reminder to everyone: ground clearance shrinks when loaded. With three adults and luggage, I measured only about two fingers' width left, so drive cautiously through waterlogged areas on rainy days. The car’s ground clearance isn’t particularly high, so remember to take bumps at an angle.
