Incredible value for the base model! CX-5 upgrade

Rick, 09/02/2025
2025 Mazda CX-70
I own a 2024 CX-5 and love it, but lately I've been needing a bit more trunk space for long road trips. About 6 months ago I started looking at other compact SUVs which could be an upgrade over the CX-5. The CX-5 has below average cargo space and backseat legroom, so I figured I could try something like the Honda CR-V, Mazda CX-50, Kia Sportage, etc, without going into the mid-size SUV … segment, but each of these vehicles was either not a compelling upgrade, or was too expensive for what it was. A few months later I see an ad about a $3000 cash discount a CX-70. At 40k, the base model (Preferred) ends up costing as much as the top trims of compact SUVs and Sedans! And sure enough, Mazda has appointed the base model really well, like they did for the CX-5. The materials look more basic compared to the wonderful interior you see in the higher trims, but they're still better than most competitors, especially on their base models. The base model also has black plastic trim on the bumpers, but with the right color (e.g. Zircon Sand) that actually looks better IMHO. Perhaps the only pieces that look a little cheap are the fake brushed metal plastic pieces on the center console and door cards. The ride is stiff, but it makes the car fun and incredibly responsive for its size. The engine (mine is non-S, 280hp) is adequate for its size. Compared to the CX-5, it's maybe a little less responsive at very low speeds (i.e. 0-20 mph) due to its weight, but then has way more power at higher speeds, especially when you let that turbo do the work. In normal mode, the transmission shifts pretty early to keep the engine quiet and the ride smooth. Once you put it in sport mode, the shifts happen at higher RPMs and the engine really starts come alive. It sounds so good... from what I could find out online, there's no fake engine noise, just potentially a physical connection between the engine bay and the cabin to improve resonance. You might have read reviews about weird transmission behavior... I personally don't feel it. While you can feel shifting (especially at lower speeds), it seems comparable to the CX-5 to me. Get a CVT if you prefer smooth acceleration. For $40k, the car feels plenty refined. Not sure if at higher trims the competitors feel more refined. Some negative opinions you read online could be about the PHEV version, which had a very rough start. Here's a few downsides: 1. No lane centering. It's there on higher trims, but other manufacturers add it on all trims. 2. Surprisingly little cargo space for the size of the vehicle, because the cargo floor is very high. Cargo space is still more than compact SUVs, but probably less than other 3-row SUVs when the third row is down. In general, the car doesn't use its 202" very efficiently. I can't imagine the CX-90 being useful as a 3-row SUV. 4. The car is stable at any speed, but wind noise starts to become noticeable above 75mph, and also mpg starts to drop significantly below advertised highway estimates. 5. Android Auto issues. The music can skip at first, it takes a few minutes to stop happening.
