Buyers Remorse
Purchased the 2025 Mazda CX50 about 3 months ago. Sorry to report I am experiencing buyers remorse. I wanted a mid size SUV Japanese hybrid and did extensive research on Toyota, Honda and Mazda. At the time of my purchase, the Mazda seemed to win out the competition. What I’ve learned since driving it extensively is a major concern for me. There is a design flaw on the front hood making it difficult to judge in an attempt to park correctly. What you can see from the drivers seat is NOT the entire front hood but a portion of it on both sides. There is approximately 8-10 inches on both sides of the front hood that is not visible from the front seats of the car. This makes it difficult to park between cars, as the drivers side will actually line up almost directly on the left line on the parking space giving the right passenger side a lengthy width of space. I thought I would adjust to this after the discovery but it still remains troublesome for me. I even purchased a seat cushion to give me about 2 inches of added height in the drivers seat to no avail. I am a 5’7 female driver. I also have adjusted the drivers seat to the highest position in hopes of a better view outward, which didn’t help at all. Additionally, the hybrid idles in park extremely loudly, so disturbing that I will be calling the dealership to look at the engine. Another issue is there are NO sensors in the front of the car making it almost impossible to parallel park and even garage parking is difficult. Lastly the car has NO get up and go to enter the highway or even when accelerating after a stoplight. I’ve noticed many drivers go around me to pass me due to the lack of acceleration. It’s frustrating. I will say I appreciate the great gas mileage and the fact that premium gas is not required for this car. The price was also reasonable which was a purchase factor. Oh about the circular wheel in the console which controls and interfaces with the software screen…it is a bit annoying as well but I can tolerate that unlike the other issues I’ve described. Unfortunately, I’m uncertain about our future together. What a bummer.

Aspiring to be a Corolla cross
CX-50 is not for me but I can get if it is for thee. I felt it was underpowered for hilly Colorado terrain and I agree with the other about the front seat. It was the most uncomfortable seat. Back pain every day I drove it. The cabin was nicely appointed and if I didn't have to drive it, I would think the car was a great deal. I felt the engine was coarse but the suspension was pretty decent. Acceleration required to much of the available torque and this, there was more noise than expected. I would be this suv would be as reliable as a Corolla Cross.
