This car handles so smooth and hugs the road. I drove from Kentucky to Pennsylvania and never got tired driving it. The electronic system made it easy to switch from phone to GPS to music. The sound system is awesomely clear. Pick up when entering the interstate is fantastic and smooth. So many alerts on this car that it took me a while to feel comfortable learning how to use them. My family and friends love this car also. They have plenty of room and are impressed with its overall quietness. I did a lot of research for months before buying. I was tired of the same look and colors of SUVs. A mechanic told me to look at the Mazda brand. I have not had the SUV long enough to have mechanical problems. The color is beautiful and I receive a lot of compliments on its looks and functionality. I would definitely recommend it and buy it all over again.

This car has all the modern conveniences at an affordable price. It's also fun to drive. If I were to change anything, it would be the heated seats. Not very useful here in TX. I would opt for air conditioned seats if it were available.

Upgraded from the old GT model

I upgraded from a 2015 CX5 Grand Touring to the 2017 model for the following features: auto rear cargo hatch, much lower noise in the cabin, and rear air conditioning vents (needed in Florida). The car still handles pretty much the same and is fun to drive, although I find the new model to be a bit more sluggish in shifting gears. They need a larger engine option. I still get the same mileage- about 24.5 city and 28.6 highway (75 mph). I don't like the new front grill, cup holder placement, higher front hood which means lower visibility for short people., lac k of arm rests and the navigation system is horrid. The city assist braking system only works in very specific situations, and is not that helpful. Also the side mirror alerts are overly sensitive, and go off even when a car is maybe 8 lengths away from you. That said, I still prefer the way this car handles and the upgraded interior when compared to similarly priced competition. The sound system is pretty good, and with lower cabin noise, is pleasant to use during long drive

I traded in my 2014 cx-5 for this 2017 model. Also Extensively researched this model and it came out with highest marks compared to Honda CRV and Toyota RAV4. Looks sharp and little road noise. ... now it has 20k miles and I still love driving it. Update as of 9/19--have 35K miles and I still love it. Car looks sharp and is fun to drive. update as of 3/2020 -- still love it! Update as of 10/2021 … still love it. Am giving it to my daughter and just bought a new one yesterday. This is my 5th Mazda.

This SUV has the great road performance for the price range it's in. The only SUVs that are better on the road are much more expensive. The comfort and technology are top of the line as well. Overall, a great car and a great value.
