All CX-7s provide 30 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats,and 59 cubic feet with those seats folded down,according to the manufacturer.

The two lower trim levels of the 2011 Mazda CX-7 feature a 161-horsepower,2.5-liter,inline 4-cylinder engine coupled with a 5-speed automatic transmission with manual shift controls. That engine delivers 20 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway with FWD,according to the EPA.

Category Definitions

Performance and Design: Taken from the Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) study, this measure is based on owner satisfaction with vehicle Performance, Style, Features and Instrument Panel, and Comfort.

Initial Quality: Taken from the Initial Quality Study (IQS), which looks at owner-reported problems in the first 90 days of new-vehicle ownership, this score is based on problems that have caused a complete breakdown or malfunction, or where controls or features may work as designed, but are difficult to use or understand.

Predicted Reliability: Derived from historical trending for a vehicle and/or manufacturer in our Initial Quality and Vehicle Dependability Studies, Predicted Reliability is a forecast of how reliable a newer vehicle might be over time.

Overall Dependability: Taken from the Vehicle Dependability Study (VDS), which looks at owner-reported problems in the first 3 years of new-vehicle ownership, this score is based on problems that have caused a complete breakdown or malfunction of any component, feature, or item (i.e., components that stop working or trim pieces that break or come loose).
