Well I really enjoyed this car and have had it for three

Well I really enjoyed this car and have had it for three years ( bought dec 2023) . It was a good $5000 less than Toyota rav4 which I think are over priced Unfortunately I heard a thumping noise and was it was a fan in the headlight assembly . It was covered under warranty but 18 months later it has reoccurred . This will be the third one including the original . Mazda said they will give $800 but I have to pay balance of $1300. It has a bulletin on it but Mazda customer service isn’t budging . Oh well next time I will go with Toyota

This is my first CX-5.

This is my first CX-5. I love it. Previously I drove a mazda tribute which was a 6 cylinder. I was reluctant to purchase a smaller vehicle with a smaller engine, but I’ve been pleased. My only negative comment is regarding the leg room in the back seat. It’s not great but workable for most average size adults.

This is my 4th CX-5 since 2016.

This is my 4th CX-5 since 2016. I have loved all of my CX-5s until this one. The gas mileage is poor on this one and the ride is rough. It’s not the driver because I use the cruise control feature when I drive. I guess it is because the others were front wheel drive and they are now all all wheel drive. I used to get in the low 30’s combined mpg now I get 20. I’ve had the car looked at at the dealership but nothing seems to be wrong with it. Sad to say I will be getting out of this lease early and looking at other options.

I absolutely love my 2024 CX5 Preferred.

I absolutely love my 2024 CX5 Preferred. It's my first SUV and my first Mazda (after 3 Cutlasses, 2 BMW's, an Audi, an Acura, and 4 Lexus sedans) and I couldn't be happier. The interior is luxurious, the ride is powerful yet smooth and quiet (equal to Lexus) and the handling is great. I test drove a RAV4 and a CRV and there was no comparison. It's fun to drive and I recommend it whole-heartedly.

Very impressive mid sized SUV.

Very impressive mid sized SUV. Very solid handling, great on gas, and looks solid. Very happy with the purchase. I looked at many others in the same class and I thought this was the best looking, had the best interior set up and is economical. Very happy with the purchase. Definitely would recommend.

This is my follow up review for 2024 Mazda CX-5 Carbon

This is my follow up review for 2024 Mazda CX-5 Carbon Edition. I have zero complaints or nits. With just under 3k miles I am now avg 31 mpg mostly on country roads and some city driving. No highway miles yet. Do not hesitate to buy this car you will not be dissapointed. I do wish this trim came with wireless carplay and android auto but I knew that when I purchased the car. The fit and finish is amazing.

Excellent choice your considering

2024 CX5 Premium NA engine 600 miles in Ave 3/22/24 Really nice driver. I was leaning towards the turbo before driving driving the CX5, went for the NA and very happy, plenty of power, very strong acceleration throughout the power band. Quiet composed ride. User friendly, buttons, dials and levers make it a pleasure to operate things. Feels bigger than it appears. I value its being the eighth year of the second generation, lots of time master the build; this was a big factor in my decision. Made In Japan quality.

Forever a Mazda Lover

Did my research on SUV test drove many, priced many. I was a previous Mazda owner of a car. I absolutely live my new SUV lots of great features! Lots if standard options fir the price. Im most impressed with how well it handles especially in the snow, I felt safe. If you are looking for a SUV I highly recommend a Mazda! You will not be disappointed
