So far, so great!

I just purchased a Mazda CX-5 a few weeks ago. I previously owned a Subaru Legacy and wanted an SUV but nothing huge. The CX-5 is the perfect size. Lots of trunk room for a smaller SUV. Also to my surprise, it gets as good of gas mileage as my legacy did. Definitely would recommend this vehicle!

Safest most fun car to drive

The look, feel, drive and safety of the SUV is the best. As they say fun to drive and wow it is really fun to drive. The styling from the outside to the details inside is unbeatable. Was a loyal Toyota owner but now own two Mazda's. Give them a test drive you will not be disappointed. Plenty of room up front and the rear hatch has more room than I expected. Golf clubs fit easily without folding the seats down.

Mazda CX5

So far so good but keep in mind about these: 1.Low mileage 2.Can't operate any sort of things in pop up display while driving 3.Truck wont open even while you parked and engine ON; You have to turn off your engine this is so annoying if you want to unload your luggage. 4.Side Mirrors won't close so parking on streets/downtown is big risk. 5.Small Luggage/truck

Great car!

This car meets all my needs. I test drove the 2016, and then the 2017 when ready to purchase and the 2017 was a lot better. The interior is a lot nicer in the 2017's as well.

First Mazda

It is very comfortable to drive as well as be a passenger. Smooth ride for an SUV. Like the center console, where the buttons for the screen are located. Like where the LCD screen is located, on the dash, not in the dash.

sleek suv

The suv looks and feels like a luxury vehicle! The seats are plush and comfortable and the car handles like it?s on rails. The ride is smooth and has nice power and pickup.

Beautiful, fun and sure footed.

I use this vehicle as my daily driver and I couldn't be happier. This car is stylish inside and out, I find it stands out on the road. I have received so many compliments on the color which is Soul Red Crystal. I find myself looking for things to do just so I can drive it a little more. I've only had this vehicle for about a month but if it continues down this path it is currently on it will be a keeper and I will stay with this brand. I thought the controls in the center console would be difficult to use and they were for a few days but now they are easy to use and Well thought out. I think the heads up display is my favorite option it's hard for me to think I would ever buy another car without it. The only things I wish were different is the home link buttons on the rearview mirror do not light up at night so it makes it hard to find them in the dark and the ride is pretty stiff.
