‘KODO – Soul of Motion'

This car exterior is based on our new ‘KODO – Soul of Motion’ design theme, inspired by the powerful and smooth movements of animals like the cheetah. With this body styling we wanted to convey the beauty of nature and the concept of motion.

To advance the three core attributes of our craftsmanship – precise build, exceptional functional beauty and customer delight – our designers and engineers collaborated on the car exterior. This has produced an authentic feeling of high quality in the body styling and build, with meticulous engineering supporting delightful design.

’KODO – Soul of Motion’ Designed to create an emotional response

The Mazda CX-5 is the first production model to feature our new ‘KODO – Soul of Motion’ design theme.

The body styling is inspired by the supple energy of the cheetah’s appearance with its powerful rear quarters.

The compact design and sculpted headlights mirror the stance and eyes of a crouching cheetah

With ‘KODO – Soul of Motion’ we’re taking car design beyond the functional sturdiness of the typical SUV, reaching a new level of emotion and sophistication. Our aim with ‘KODO – Soul of Motion’ is to create a means of motion that appeals to the soul, provoking an emotional response when you interact with the car. That’s the way it feels to us – and we believe it will stir the same emotions in other drivers too.
