I think you are right too. I read in last mag (think Torque) that new CX7 timing is 10+ for 0-100. Will not come with Turbo apparently. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechwarrior Neutral Newbie February 5, 2010 Share February 5, 2010 Turbo one still can order lah. ANyway the turbo used to be 8.6Sec for the 0-100. The non turbo one remember reading 10Seconds plus somewhere. Which is stll fast for a automatic 2.3 litre heavy vehicle.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferraricalifornia 1st Gear February 5, 2010 Share February 5, 2010 strange...life motoring quoted 0-100kph for new 2.5L 165bhp non-turbo CX-7 to be 12.5s...though reviewer said it felt faster than that...(in 11s region) the pre-facelift CX-7 had AWD 2.3Disi-turbo 235bhp 6A/T...0-100kph in 8.6s... then now facelift CX-7 only FWD 2.3Disi-turbo 235bhp 6A/T, but 0-100kph 10.0s?? this is confusing man...

Ferraricalifornia 1st Gear February 5, 2010 Share February 5, 2010 i seriously doubt it la... 2.3 Disi-Turbo 235bhp but 0-100kph in 10s region?? more like 9.6s bah...just 1s more than AWD model... as for the 2.5L model, expected la for such a huge car... this car should be rivalling the Murano 2.5L right?? now available from tanchong...

Blackseal 1st Gear February 5, 2010 Share February 5, 2010 On 2/4/2010 at 10:35 PM, Ferraricalifornia said: but Tiguan is one size smaller than CX-7 right?? you tested the 2.0L 170bhp or 200bhp version?? I tried the Tiguan 2.0 with 170 bhp...on paper it can clock 0 to 100 km/h at 9.9 secs....u and me are aware the Germans are always conservative on paper...and yes...it felt like 0.5 secs or more faster....if compared to the FL CX7 2.3 turbo....the Tiguan is definitely faster by almost a second...

This is the funny thing...the 2.5 is actually faster from 0 to 50 km/h than the 2.3 turbo....I think this is due to the lag of the 2.3 turbo...but when the turbo is awaken...that's a different story...the mid range is definitely way better than the 2.5..

Ferraricalifornia 1st Gear February 5, 2010 Share February 5, 2010 turbo-lag to me spoils all feeling of sportiness man... but treat it as a safety feature and it does actually make sense... you'll only get the power when there's the need and space...that's when you floor the car or rev it hard... during normal driving, there's really no point for missle like acceleration, especially during peak hour traffic...so your turbo-charged car drives normally lor... but if liddat, car will be drinking more than usual...lots of wasted energy...

Actually, it's whether you want to floor the pedal or not... Turbo kicks in at 2500 RPM and believe me, my previous CX-7 revs very freely :) Check the Mazda Singapore forum - there was apparently an ECU update that brought the turbo boost point from 2500 to 1500 RPM... My CX-7 was "updated" during my last service - the car was a bit more responsive but I much prefer that kick in the pant feeling - shiok siah...hahah Oh, there's no replacement for displacement - 2.5l engine definitely more punch than the 2.3l one (until the turbo kicks in)...heheh Edited February 5, 2010 by Xtrocious Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
