some of the stuff i have seen before in slightly different form. the 1st couple are showing things that are a year or so old. but that one with the 6 sky diesel mule is very recent.

Nice!

I'm definitely waiting until these cars hit the states before I buy my next car. It may or may not wind up being a Mazda, but I will give these SKY cars a fair evaluation before I decide.

I drool at the thought of all their manuals being short throw like the Miata's. Yummy!!

Great compliation. It's nice to think that people designing Mazda cars are so **** about all these important 'car fun' aspects. I hope they can execute on it and we see something significant beside the 2.

I am surprised no one has commented on the "proto" in the crash safety testing vid..

Looks to be like a CX-5, definitely got a SKY Engine "Module" under hood, front grille looks a little Kodo to me, wheel size looks about right for a CX-5..??

the wheelbase looks a little shorter but its the rear side window that gives it away. its smaller and the d pillar is thicker than the cx-7.

edit- c pillar at a different angle too?

it's an "hybrid mule" with panels of body of cx-7 (see rear), but..definetly is a crash test of a cx-5 mule....

yes, SKY under the hood .......

Note the rims....same as North Europe Winter test mule spyshots (see topic of cx-5 mule)

Thank you for videos , Ash.......

A friend of mine in Irvine sees the American CX5 mule regularly but has not looked under hood as yet. Definitely SKY though. He's also driven the SKY gasoline products and likes them.

My exact thoughts. Definitely a Shinari influenced nose.
