Best value and fun to drive!

Having four boys in sports at the same time makes our lives hectic but what helps in this important life phase is our Mazda CX 5. It not only is safe and reliable but really makes those drives back and forth to different kid sporting events less stressful and fun!

Comfortable and fun

This is my 7th Mazda sonce 1998. I moved to the CX-5 from a Mazda 6 and found the comfort level of entry and exit wasp much easier on my back. The ride is nimble and the gas mileage is better than expected at 24 mpg average. I've gone on trips over 600 miles and have no complaints about comfort.

Best I test drove

I was close to buying a subaru which is a great car also but the mazda just was more fun to drive had better feel and power for 4cylinder. And I live in the south didn't need awd. Better price at the time was the convincing choice

Meets the needs and exceeds the expectation

2016 Mazda CX-5 is sturdy and pretty solid, however the drive could have been smoother. I like the seats and the legroom this car provides, the technology that comes with the car(navigation, blind spot alert and rear view camera) is definitely a plus.
