Hands down the best choice in its class

By Alan A written on 06-17-2016

I'd been looking at replacing my 2002 PT Cruiser for quite some time, and have been researching compact SUVs for about a year. After reading reviews, comparing a wide range of vehicles, and test driving several top choices, there simply was no comparison. The CX-5 was hands down the winner on so many levels. I splurged on the Grand Touring trim with the technology and i-Activsense package. The adaptive cruise control and radar assisted emergency braking is a great safety feature. I only have a little over 500 miles on the car thus far, but I'm getting great gas mileage. I love the outstanding styling, inside and out and great use of space. The perforated leather seats are comfy and cool. My critiques thus far are few: The ignition switch is hidden behind the bulky windshield wiper control stalk. A minor annoyance. The navigation system does not have real-time traffic monitoring and rerouting. That's about it. Everything else is just about perfect. 1 year update: A little more than a year later, I still think this is a absolutely fantastic choice. The car drives confidently and securely. If rumors are to believed, the lack of real time traffic monitoring will be irrelevant if Mazda follows through on its promise to install Apple Car Play.

Great car for the price

By Mark V written on 09-07-2016

I bought this car after owning a 2005 Mazda Tribute for past 11 years and so far I love my CX-5 Touring SUV. I paid $24,500 with the moon roof and bose option which is a decent price for this car and better than what I would have paid for comparable cars such as the Ford Escape and Honda CRV. This car comes equipped with some great standard features such as the info system, back up camera, and heated seats. The drive and comfort of the car is fantastic and I don't have one complaint. Most important, for people like myself who want a car with great power for a 4 cylinder car, this car feels like a V6, which was my number one priority. You can't go wrong with this car.

Downsize from a Sienna

By Kare Stewart written on 07-26-2016

Thought I would be giving up alot of room and comfort. I DO miss my bucket seat arms! But at 6'3, I was really worried about knocking my head getting in and out or not having a good view out the windshield. Voila! I clear the doors just fine, leg room is great and I have as much visibility out of my Mazda as my Sienna gave me out of the front (back window is really small! ) Here's what you need to know if you want a CUV : the CX-5 is far and away the best value for your money! The interior is MUCH nicer than the competition and the driving experience is "soccer mom Sportscar " worthy! Mazda throws in alot of safety extras on the base touring model the others only throw in on their most expensive models, too. Didn't think I would be so pleased with less!
