Carspotter Jeroen auto magazine has provided via Motor Authority some spy shots and a video with a prototype of what seems to be the new Mazda CX-9, which would debut at the 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show, this November.
The spy shots and the video are presenting the 2016 Mazda CX-9 from a styling point of view, one might depicting a wider body than the previously launched 2016 CX-5. We are actually dealing with a compact crossover that would be quite distinct.
