Used Mazda CX-5 for Sale in Salt Lake City, UT

We've owned the (*2015) CX-5 for almost 2 yrs now and it has 22k miles on it. Still no problems, love it. We switched from a 2012 CRV. This car easily out-handles the CRV, has a better feel to the road and is better in the snow. (Tire issue on CRV). The tall rims and smaller side walls make cornering and driving a blast but at the cost of slightly more road noise. No big deal!!! Brakes are awesome! My wife does lots of local driving so we see about 25mpg. The cargo area is pretty good but slightly smaller than the CRV. The leather fabric is really hardy in this vehicle and it has little cooling holes for venting. I have to knock the front seats slightly. I do not find them as comfortable as the CRV which were incredible!! These are a quite a bit harder and angle in more. Rear seat leg room/height is decent. The vehicle has a handy cigar lighter port in the cargo area. The USB port in the center console puts out 1amp which is not enough to charge today's phones. We bought a 2.1amp cigar lighter charger... The side mirrors have an LED blind spot warning which works great (bonus)!! The backup camera works very well but the CRV had more camera angles and views. The stereo is just okay... Does the job. We are very pleased with the CX5 and would buy another without question.

Dec 2014- I just traded in a 2015 Accord sedan (which had multiple problems) for the 2015 CX-5. I prefer the style and drive of Mazda models. The seats in the CX5 are supportive and comfortable (apart from the head restraint which is not comfortable for short people) The Bose system sounds fine to me--not great-- but good enough. The interior noise level (I checked with a decibel meter) is not great, but is equivalent to other SUVs in this price range. The car is relatively smooth on bumpy roads. The CX5 is known for being a pleasure to drive- sporty for an SUV with great handling. The electronic multifunction interface is not great. it is a bit slow and sometimes requires multiple entries. I am not able to download my messages. Also, the screen should be bigger. Fuel economy was lower than advertised. Only 28.5 on the hightway at 70 mph. 2017-- So, living in Florida, I found that the car took a long time to cool off, due to the lack of air conditioning vents in the back. Also, I just got tired of the road roar, especially on the highway. I'm trading it in for the 2017, which has loads of improvements. Still sticking with the CX5 , which gave me no problems while I owned it.

After 28,000 miles, the first review still pretty accurate but to add a few comments. The engine seems to be getting louder. Marble sound lasts longer. Will get this checked out next service. The uncomfortable back seats have become an issue. Big complaints from my wife on those rare times she rides in back. Think of the exit row seat on a plane. Mazda has to fix this. Doing a lot of highway driving these days. Good riding car. The radio is just not good. If it's not an hd signal it has no depth at all. First, I drove every crossover in this class when I was shopping. I mean every one. Some were smoother rides, some more space, but really, no other car matched the handling of the Mazda. If you like to drive, this is really the best one, and a few other reasons to love it. Personally, I like the design. I think it is sporty looking with nice lines. Great ground clearance. Others, like the Nissan had a front spoiler kind of thing that cut the ground clearance down. Mazda had true height. Inside is nicely laid out and the materials are decent quality for the class. I had read a lot of reviews of this car and there were several comments about road noise. Frankly, I don't know what they mean. It's not a Bently, but it's more than reasonable. Could always be a tire issue. I got leather seats, Bose Sound, no navigation. So now to some critiques. Mileage is not as advertised. I really don't know how you get the miles they say without driving like your grandmother. You really can't drive like that with this car since the engine is geared high, must be to push the mileage, and it has other gas saving features. What that means is that, 1. You have to get used to the car sounding like marbles in a dryer when it starts up (for just about 1 minute so no big deal), but it is a little weird if you don't know it, and 2, you have to punch it more than you might be used to so it moves. It's a little hard to describe, but you'll know it when you feel it, but you will get used to it. But when you do punch it, this car can move. Love the regular gas it gets. As far as comfort, the front seats are very comfortable, but I get complaints that the back seats are too upright. Mazda should give a reclining back seat like Nissan has. Another small thing is the center front console. I read one review where the guy complained it was too short for comfortable arm resting, and at least for my size, 5'11". he was right, it should be longer for a more ergonomic arm resting. Also, I would like the steering wheel to drop a little more, but not a biggy. The heated seats take a little longer to warm up than I would like, and the only other thing is the radio. Most reviewers complain that even the upgraded Bose doesn't sound so good and they are right, if you don't have a good HD signal. In HD, it sounds really good, in non HD, it is pretty lame for an upgraded system. So for all my negatives, I like to think of them as constructive criticism, I really love to drive this car. If you are a driver, if handling, good (not great) economy, great pickup (just with some extra pedal) are important, great styling, this is the right crossover. Bottom line, it is for drivers. se
