Rather than being a performance version of the CX-5 or CX-9, Mazda’s CEO says that the Koeru is something completely different, with a lower ride height than any of Mazda’s current SUVs. “It’s a totally new car. It’s a lower, sporty SUV. It’s close to a wagon,” Kogai told Automotive News.

Kogai actually compared the model to the Subaru Outback, “That kind of genre. We’d like to see how it is evaluated globally, so we are collecting customer feedback.”
