Does the CURRENT CX-5 have this:
Cooled EGR (exhaust gas recirculation)
Mazda also uses a special method uncommonly seen in gas-powered passenger cars to keep engine temperature down at high load to prevent fuel enrichment, a cooled EGR. By using a special (and rather pricey) module to cool exhaust gas thats recirculating through the turbo, the engine is able to reduce internal heat and thereby maintain an impressive 10:5:1 compression ratio. But the benefit will be seen more by consumers than the EPA testing lab, Mazda said.
Without the cooled EGR, the engine wouldnt be able to offer the real-world fuel economy we want to make sure customers have, said research and development engineer Stan Hortinela. And that component, which is not cheap, doesnt change our window sticker rating one iota. Its purely there to make sure people get the efficiency they expect from the rating. It also prevents internal temperatures from rising too high and damaging the engine.
