Not very happy

Bought the 2015 Mazda cx5 because saw reviews and knew Mazda from the past. I am not very happy, sitting space is absurdly small I am 6' 0 And almost don't fit in the copilot seat, the back seats are too small, no space very uncomfortable, the radio is cheap, the air conditioning is very weak, with 80* takes 20 minutes to cool the space, not cold enough, the car is brand new so Why in the world will not cool down, not a good ac system. If I could go back in time, I would NOT buy the Mazda cx5, consumes too much gas, the rear seats are too small and basic

Great family car for young couple

We've owned this car for 9 months now and while there are some things I wish were different, all in all we do love this vehicle and feel like it's a great value for the cost. It's not your standard SUV; it's good looking, sporty, and very affordable for young couples who eventually plan on having kids and don't want to settle for a boring "soccer mom van". I was very much against big SUVs, but my husband needed more head room that a regular size sedan couldn't offer, so the CX-5 was a great compromise. It's a car I feel proud driving because of how sleek it looks and our friends compliment it all the time. There was also next to no learning curve going from our 2012 Ford Focus to this SUV. It's only a couple inches higher so you don't feel much higher off the road than in a regular sedan and I don't have any issues fitting into tight parking spaces. It has incredible handling and turns on a dime. I rarely have to do Y-turns to get around a tight corner. The only nitpicks I have are the 2.5L engine not being as "peppy" as I'd hoped. It does have get up and go but you really have to push it, and it sacrifices a lot of MPG in doing so. We get 25mpg in city and 30 on the highway which is not bad at all for a SUV if you're driving conservatively. There are unfortunately no air vents for the back seat with the Touring model, and this is an issue living in the Arizona desert. The upside is we have a white CX-5 and it's good at keeping the heat out. My husband's biggest complaint is that the base sound system is terrible. No bass and the highs sound muddy and distorted. Trying to increase the bass through the sound system just makes the speakers rattle with no improvement in sound. We chose not to upgrade to the Bose sound system based on the poor reviews. Despite all that though, this is a great car with great safety ratings and I feel confident that it will last many years and be a great family car when the time comes.

CX5... Best CUV on the market

Downsized from 2010 CX9(260,000 miles) to CX5 GT-AWD and LOVE LOVE it!! Has all the room I need and I see up to 32.5 mpg on the road...avg 28+mpg. The ride and handling are amazing... love taking back roads in this thing...the steering is perfectly balanced! Interior details are WAY above the price point! Recommend this car to anyone who needs a bit more cargo room than a sedan and needs AWD in winter! Test drive one...you'll LOVE it!

I have nothing but good things to say about the CX5. The exterior is extremely appealing; interior is comfy; handles extremely well, with a very smooth ride. The cost of the CX5 is much more reasonable than the luxury suv’s That don’t look as good or handle nearly as well as he CX5.
