A nice Mazda
The Mazda CX-5 is a well built, nice handling car. It is easy to drive and handles city streets and highways equally well. The interior is well designed with an easy to read dashboard instrument display - I have the analogue display. The seating is comfortable and there are adjustments for legroom, height, lumbar support, and the steering wheel. The cargo capacity is typical for a vehicle this size. The Mazda Connect feature offers many options for entertainment, bluetooth, and so on that are too numerous to mention. You can use your cell phone for GPS, music streaming, etc. The Mazda Connect display screen is large and easy to see without diminishing the view through the windshield. The backup camera activates when reverse gear is selected, giving a good view of the area behind the car. There are alerts for objects in the vicinity of the car - blind spots and so on. I gave this car 4 stars (I would give it 4.5 stars if I could) because I have some very small critiques. First, the break and accelerator pedals are close to each other and take some getting used to. The only other very minor issue is that there is no clock displayed unless the Mazda Connect feature is on. It would have been nice to have a separate clock display that turns on when the car is started. As I mentioned, these complaints are small ones as my overall experience with the CX-5 has been excellent. I am very happy with this car.
Best in class cx5 turbo
Traded 2020 cx30 for 2023 cx5 turbo. I have driven it for 6 months and my favorite vehicle of over 25 I've owned. Today was heavy snow and with Michelin CrossClimates this vehicle was a snow machine. Had purchased a 2021 cx5 for my wife and after 2 road trips I traded in my cx3O for the greater visibility and size of the cx5 . Mazda has designed a superb AWD system and when coupled with the driving dynamics, interior quality, safety, and aesthetics of its style the cx5 is the synergistic best in class.

I love my new car!
If no one told you the type of car you were test driving, you would think this was a luxury vehicle. You have to see it to believe it! It has all of the bells and whistles!

Great car, infotainement system needs improvements
I bought another CX-5, so I like a good enough. Quite ride, enough power without being forced into a turbo. But why on earth is the infotianment center not touch screen. The various knobs do the job, but fast forwarding a book on MP 3 in nearly impossible. Also the dash gauge could use an option to show speed digital as so many other do. Power heated seats are great and 2 setting memory for the seat at this low a trim is amazing and a buy reason for me.

Super car Gets up and goes!
Biggest issue is the Mazda Paint does not appear to be as tough as other paints. Great power and top safety features, but a bit disappointed that the body is not the hard type and will dent if someone hits the fender with their car door. My only other disappointment was there no red one available and I really wanted Red!! Got the pretty carbon edition and like it very much, it just is not red. Great size if you hate parking and the safety features are superb.
