Blown engine at 30,000 km.

One star review due to a blown engine at 30k. Started knocking so I checked the oil and it was gone. Added 4 quarts and the knock went away. 40km later, it starting knocking worse then completely died. I'm giving it one star because it was fun to drive until it stopped driving. It probably won't be under warranty either. Mazda is the same as Kia and Hyundai these days and all 3 brands are garbage. I will be selling this car or trading it in. That skyactive engine is garbage. At least I can get where I need to go with my 07 tacoma. The Mazda cx5 was our first new car and it didn't even make 100,000km. My advice to anyone who is considering buying one of these garbage piles, please consider another brand. The car isn't even paid off and it's toast. Don't make the same mistake that we did.

I have been a Toyota owner or lessee for over 15 years. I fell in love with my loaded CX-5 touring at first site. The car has everything except burping the baby.

Slick styling and solid construction. This vehicle is well worth the money if you want value and the newest safety features. I would buy this vehicle again and again.
Excellent performance for its class

AWD has handled incredibly well, and I’m used to the Audi A4 with Quattro. So far, I’ve tested it on standing water and dirt roads. The automatically adjustable Cruise Control is my favorite gift I never knew I needed. Very comfortable drive and seats. Great visibility. My criteria were the following: great AWD and decent ground clearance for handling unplowed snow, small enough to regularly parallel park in the city, SUPER reliable, and comfortable enough for long road trips. It’s also fun to drive! Best of all these features I found in this price range. Only drawback is the MPG— hope to have another in the future that’s a hybrid!

So my wife purchased a 2020 cx-5 three months ago. We both love it. Well I traded my 2016 Subaru Legacy premium in on a 2018 Mazda cx-5 touring with touring pkg that has 12000 miles on it. Love it. Very little difference from my wife's car. Very sporty handling yet comfortable ride. Interior has a sophisticated and classy feel. My wife and I couldn't be more happier with our cx-5's. Update: I've now had the car for 7 months. Everything is great. Love driving it. If I have to ding it for anything it would be the navigation system is a bit cumbersome. Also a little higher mpg would be nice. I currently average 26 back and forth to work in mostly stop and go driving.
