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.

I considered buying this car as a second car and went to the dealer for a test drive. While the exterior looks good, that's about the only advantage of this car. The interior feels cheap and outdated, even in the top trim. All the buttons and small details look and feel low-quality. Whoever called this a luxury or refined interior must be comparing it to cars from the '90s. The acceleration is also terrible, and the engine is loud. I wouldn’t recommend buying this car—there are plenty of better options on the market.
