CX-7 in the Market
The CX-7 sells in much smaller numbers than the popular CR-V and RAV4. Up until now, its turbocharged engine has made it a unique offering in the small crossover segment, but the CX-7's appeal now seems poised to grow thanks to its new base engine and improved gas mileage. A new, lower price won't hurt, either, as the CX-7 now starts at $21,550, which is $2,350 less than its base price last year.
