Launched in 2012, the first generation <\/span>Mazda CX-5 (codenamed KE)<\/b> was the first sport utility vehicle (SUV) from Japan that revolutionized the segment. SUVs have always been people or luggage carriers, with tall and boxy designs like earlier generations of the <\/span>Honda CR-V<\/span><\/a><\/span>, which can look mundane to some. However, the <\/span>Mazda CX-5 <\/b>changed this by incorporating <\/span>Mazda\u2019s Kodo Design<\/b> \u2013 which roughly translates to \u201cSoul of Motion\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mazda\u2019s Kodo Design<\/b> utilizes common Japanese aesthetic elements – with single, flowing lines to create a dynamic look. As a result, the designs are more <\/span>pure<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>refined<\/span><\/i> making the <\/span>CX-5 <\/b>look like a calligraphy artwork.<\/span><\/p>\n
