Love the safety features

I compared the CX5 to the RAV4 and CRV. To get all the safety features, I would have had to spend $3000 plus. The transmission is the smoothest I have ever had. It has no gaps at any speed and is almost intuitive. Mazda hit it out of the park on this new model!

Most reliable car I've ever owned

The interior and exterior of this vehicle is extremely sleek. Very pleased with the fuel efficiency, technology, comfort and drive of this vehicle. Heated front and rear seats and the rear seats have 2 USB plug-ins as well; makes for the perfect road trip vehicle.

What a pleasure to drive

Love driving this vehicle! Comfort, safety, Beauty and reliability all rolled in one package. Night driving is not my cup of tea but the lights are fabulous and I feel a little better about it if I have to drive. Commuting made easy. Love it. This is my third Mazda.
