2016 Mazda CX-5 consumer reviews

We are three weeks into our lease on a CX-5, and we really love it. Great drive, so much so that we make excuses to take the car out. It's simple in its interior styling, but it's sporty, and we like that. We have the Touring, and we're happy to have made that choice, as it has the lane change warning. The rear camera is very large, better than the ones on competitors, and the dashboard and seat styling is sporty. We love the acceleration on the 2.5 L, and we handling, braking and suspension are top in the class. We read the reviews on this car and others before we decided. Finally, we narrowed our choice to the Subaru Forester, the Honda CR-V, the Ford Escape and the CX-5. We discounted the Honda CR-V because the 2015 has a vibration problem that has brought it many bad consumer reviews. After that, we thought the CX-5 gave use the best car for the money at the trim level we liked. Nothing wrong with the Forester and Escape, but the higher trim levels were more expensive than our CX-5 was. We continue to be happy, and that's good for me, because while my wife is the main driver, I have always been a Mazda lover.

Easy entry, has all the latest tech I need, drives well, perfect for older adult with movement issues

Great style, improved interior, highest safety rating, updated electronics, great fuel dconomy - 33mpg on the road.

I just leased a 2016 Mazda CX5 from Autex Mazda in Keene, NH. I have previously owned 2 Suzuki SX4's from them as well. Gretchen Jackson is a pleasure to work with, I tell her what I am looking for and she makes it happen! She goes the extra mile to make sure that I am happy with my purchase and makes the whole car buying experience fun and enjoyable.

I recently purchased a 2016 CX-5 Grand Touring at Mazda of Knoxville and I absolutely love it! Donnie Rawls was our sales associate. We have purchased 2 vehicles from him at Mazda previously and this is our third purchase! (I also recently referred my brother whom also purchased a Mazda CX-9). I had a 2012 Certified Pre-owned Mazda CX-7 for 3 years and never had a single problem out of it. When the CX-5 came out, I immediately had my eye on them. Well, yesterday my dream came true! My lovely husband bought one for me for our 5 year anniversary!!! - xxxxxxto him and to Donnie for making this happen! Everything from customer service, paper work, and the overall process is great! They worked out a great deal for us and now I'm cruising in style! The car has all the bells and whistles inside from navigation, voice command, home link for my garage system, touch screen, Bluetooth etc.. and well the body style, in my opinion, is one- if not the MOST stylish and sleek looking SUV out now!... SOOO basically what I am saying is... If you're due a new ride GO SEE DONNIE RAWLS at MAZDA KNOXVILLE! =)

I looked at everything, Toyo, Kia, Ford, Hundai, Chevy, Nissan, Lincoln, Buick, Lexus, Honda.....Here is how I stack the top 3 in terms of Look, Comfort, MPG, Cost, Fun, Space: CX5, Equinox, Honda CRV......Look and feel inside and out as good as Lexus....I went to the Auto show in NY and that was the best way to get a feel for each of the contenders... I will tell you that INFINITI has a new crossover coming out end of year that I would have clearly considered, but my lease was up....NO Way you will be disappointed with CX5 and its my first Mazda...

Love this vehicle. Drives great. Six speed automatic is smooth. Sport mode is great when you need it. Very comfortable front seating. Blind spot monitoring on both sides is well thought out. Backup camera works well. No issues with bluetooth. Good gas mileage. Titanium Flash Mica exterior is stunning. Doesn't vibrate when stopped and idling in gear (like the new CR-V I had and sold back to the dealer). The only negative comment I have is features standard on the CR-V EX (second trim line) are either not available or not standard on the CX-5 Touring (also second trim line), yet the two are priced similarly. If you're in the market for a new small SUV, do yourself a favor and at least test drive the CX-5 before you make a decision. You'll be sorry if you don't.

Okay so this is my first foreign car. Needless to say, I love my new Mazda CX-5. It really lives up to the zoom zoom slogan.

I like the styling and the extra features this SUV has. The gas economy is also very good. Wanted a car that had some cargo space with relatively good gas mileage. Great experience with the dealership!

Have only owned the car for a few weeks but love it already getting excellent gas mileage and is fun to drive and plenty of room for people or cargo!!. hope to drive this vehicle on into my golden years.
