Mazda is preparing a new crossover for the American market

Mazda CEO Masamichi Kogai shared the company's plans with the press. As the head stated, to strengthen its position in the American market, the brand will need a mid-size crossover that will slot into the model lineup between the CX-5 and the larger seven-seat CX-9.

Most likely, this refers to the revival of the CX-7 model, which was discontinued in 2012. However, during the conversation, Kogai did not directly confirm this information. Assembly of the new model is scheduled to begin in 2021 at a plant in the United States, which the company is building jointly with Toyota.
