Ride is a bit tight, but is a champ on long road trips. Compared to Kia, doesn’t have same storage nooks and crannies other imports incorporate to maximize space. Front area a little congested on long trips—drink area and center console often fought over. Steering is tight—especially when compared to Wrangler or Cherokee. First time in a 4cylinder—and it’s OK. doesn’t feel underpowered on highways. Have not tried it in mountains or with towing. Cargo space is decent—not best, not worst. Auto-hatch closer is the option you never knew you needed and can never live without. Rear AC vents and moonroof dog approved. Apple Car Play integration works for me. Center display and controls are intuitive and easy to navigate while driving. Really can’t go wrong with this little gem. Would get power seats for passenger side on next go round. Definitely get the moonroof if you feel you’re missing your larger off-road vehicle of your youth. Only draw back is it’s a little long for city parking.

Beautiful look but I’m not happy with a lot things like they need to change gaz pump at around 60k and now at 87000k they need to change the alternator, coil and battery. I was very sold for Mazda but now I will never buy any Mazda.

I purchased a CX5 Signature with all the bells and whistles about 3 months ago. I traded a 2015 Honda CRV. I'm still loving it. The interior is especially nice and the turbo engine is incredibly fast. I have zero complaints.

My first Mazda and my first SUV. Upgraded from an Impreza. The ride is smooth, don't feel the bumps as much (compared to 2016 Impreza which was like riding in a horse cart). Not the greatest acceleration, but plenty for me (not into performance cars). The rear tinted windows are great for my 3 month old son who hates having the sun on his face. The ease of getting in and out is a big plus (I'm 6', and also we frequently use the detachable car seat). Overall just a pleasurable drive. Was considering Forester, CRV, Outback. Test drove all 4. Picked Mazda because of the drive experience and decent leasing options. Second choice would have been the Forester. Probably just as comfy but feels less "premium".
