2016 CX 5 - 2 years later

Great, reliable vehicle- a bit bland in some ways but all in all a good buy. Have 55k miles with no issues. Good gas mileage.

I love my car!

I really like my car. It came with a great color, sunroof, drives so smooth and quiet. The back up camera is also an awesome bonus!

Very robust car

This car meets my needs, I love the adaptive cruise control (I use all the time). The sportive leather seats are great (especially the white one). The BOSE speakers are pretty awesome.

Wonderful car but small interior

I have always loved my Mazda?s. I wanted to upgrade to an SUV when I had my first baby. With the car seat in there it is impossibly small. I can?t even adjust the drivers seat as far back as I need to and there is no way for three people to sit in the back. I would recommend this car to anyone WITHOUT kids and car seats.

Great car - no issues.

I would definitely recommend this car for anyone looking for something smaller than a minivan but with plenty of cargo space. We live on a hill so the AWD is essential.
