Mazda Hakaze Concept

The car sits on the structure of the Mazda CX-7 SUV, and has Mazda's 2.3-liter turbo four from the Mazda6 MPS. But it's shorter than the CX-7, lower and surprisingly light. That wipes away the sloth and thirst of a typical SUV. It retains the high eyepoint that SUV drivers love so much, and also allows for surprising space inside. The airiness is exaggerated by a fishbowl of a roof, with huge removable glass panels. Mazda's Hakaze concept is the automaker's future vision of a good-looking and practical SUV coupe. Motor Trend recently had the chance to take the Hakaze for a quick spin in advance of its Geneva Motor Show world debut.
