2007 Mazda Protege
In 2001 and 2006, the Mazda Protege moved steadily up the compact car
rankings, appealing to cost-conscious consumers. A look at the 2007 Mazda
Protege suggests that this solid sedan will continue its climb into this
next year. Mazda designers seem happy enough with the Protege, and so
confident in its build, they have developed from it the Protege5 wagon,
and the Mazdaspeed Protege sport compact.
Available Models
The 2007 Mazda Protege sedan is available in the base DX model, the intermediate
LX model, and the upscale ES model. All three models are 4-door vehicles,
and have a number of attractive safety, comfort, and convenience options
to add to the standard package.
Interior Features
The standard interior features of the 2007 Mazda Protege include a tilt
steering wheel, cloth upholstery, a split folding rear seat, AM/FM/CD
player, digital clock, intermittent wipers, front bucket seats, map lights,
and remote fuel-door/decklid release. The LX and ES models are also provided
with air conditioning, cruise control, power locks, windows, and mirrors,
a tachometer, remote entry system, and a height-adjustable driver seat.
The ES model also has a superior sound system.
This compact sedan provides ample head room and leg space. It also has
an easily accessible and relatively roomy rear seat. This rear seat is
a locking 60/40 folding seat that allows for extra cargo room, an attractive
standard feature offered in all 2007 Mazda Protege models.
Exterior Features
For 2007, the Protege's ES model is equipped with alloy wheels. The DX
and LX models have 195/55VR15 tires, while the ES model has 195/50VR16
tires. A power sunroof is an option on the LX and ES models.
Performance
Under the hood, the 2007 Mazda Protege contains a 2.0-litre DOHC 4-cylinder
engine, which offers 130 hp at 6000 rpm and 135 lbs-ft of torque at 4000
rpm. On all models, 5-speed manual transmission is standard, though automatic
4-speed transmission is an option. In the ES model, the automatic transmission
is now available with a manual shift gate, which gives the driver the
freedom to choose between automatic or manual shifting. This sedan offers
a fuel economy of 24 mpg.
Safety and Security
All Mazda Protege models contain dual front airbags and an emergency trunk
release. Both the LX and ES models offer anti-lock brakes and front-side
airbags as an option. The Protege's ES model comes equipped with 4-wheel
disc brakes and fog lights.
