New and used 2025 Mazda CX-5 for sale near Normal, IL

Great experience. I always feel very well informed and appreciate the Barker Team.

I have the Premium Plus. Non-turbo, but I don't really feel like I'm missing anything. It still has a "Sport" setting, in case I want to be peppier. It is truly a great ride and a beautiful car. Remarkably quiet and smooth. Nice, comfortable leather seats. Great Bose sound system. Good smart features. The blind spot beeping was annoying, but I was able to turn it off (you can turn off many of the sound and a few of the safety features). Way easier to learn the features than my old Acura, which I drove for 11 years, and it still confused me. The reason why I didn't rate the interior and comfort as a 5 star is because 1) it needs a little more armrest and compartment space, than it currently has, 2) the cupholder is set back in front of the arm rest, making it a little tough to get the beverage, and use that small armrest properly, 3) Once you sync your IPhone to the car, apple play takes over and its really tough to get out of it to use non-apple features like Sirius or the radio (yes, the radio!), and 4) it could use a little ambient lighting (but there are built-in areas so you can retro-fit).

Overall extremely satisfied with this dealership and the quality of service we received. I don’t think we would’ve purchased a vehicle from this dealership, that is three hours away and out of state, if it hadn’t been for our sales person Victor. He was excellent! Very responsive and knowledgeable. A+

This is my 3rd NEW CX5 non Turbo and by far #1- 2025 is a GREAT year with suspension, transmission and engine improvements- If you appreciate precision feedback , handling , suspension , brakes - Then you might start looking here. The vehicle interior is second to none at any cost and the build quality is as well. Approaching 10K miles on my 25 and no issues. I will say with these high compression engines (13-1 )- premium 91 + fuel is a must - turbo or not - As well The break in takes up to 20K miles before it will deliver the power its capable of - that said - Its reliable , easy to maintain - and for me has a timing chain ( no rubber belt ) and a real 6speed traditional step transmission as opposed to many other brands that are dropping cheap short lived CVT transmissions in the drivetrain - Mazda is using old school tried and tested technology. - I can yield at least 35 mpg if I keep it under 75 mph - and with a 15.3 gallon tank thats a lot of miles ! If you need a massive people / pet hauler - possibly look elsewhere- All models have AWD which has adaptive magnetic lockout which means little to no wear as it goes from 90% front -10% rear -- to 50%-50% depending on road conditions -- Just a great vehicle - If you are dead set on a competitor ( and there are many ) at least drive the CX5 before you decide- it may be your last stop - If you want power -- Get the turbo - I prefer the non-turbo as with premium fuel Im good with around 200 hp - The Turbo can get you over 250 Hp both 4 cylinder engines .

I am an out of state buyer from Texas, who just purchased a site, unseen vehicle, except for photos, from Sam Lehman Mazda. Once finding the car on their website, I called and left a message. Consuela Regal responded to my phone call by sending me a welcoming, personalized video introducing herself and letting me know that the car I was interested in was on the lot and still available. Because I was unable to see the car in person, both Consuela and Brad Hutchinson, Finance Manager, were both instrumental in obtaining and disseminating information to me regarding the automobile. The entire purchasing process had multiple roadblocks ranging from financing to out-of-state car buying rules and regulations associated with both Texas and Illinois. Both Consuela and Brad were extremely patient with me, holding the car for me, and allowing me extra time to get processes in order so I could complete the purchase. Brad sought out multiple financial alternatives to allow this purchase to happen and walked me through all of the steps Required. Consuela became my point person and quarterbacked all of the logistics involved with getting the car ready for shipment to me. Three weeks later, and I just received shipment of my new vehicle right to my home, and I couldn't be happier about my purchase. In the end, I received the car that I had desperately been looking for, and I made two new friends in Consuela and Brad. Both of them were extremely professional, friendly, always available for communication, including phone calls and texting, even on their days off. That's what I call professional service! Thank you both.

I always drove American cars. Father worked for GM. But this time I went for price/reliability/style. The interior could use some redesigning. Some of the switches should not be where they are. That's my only negative. I am glad I purchased this make /model. I glad I moved from American to Asian made. I am writing this with only 1 month driving the CX5. I am starting to like the car more and more. What would have been a better option...have heated side mirrors instead of heated seats. Your butt will eventually warm the seat. But the heated mirrors would benefit the driver more in the cold months. Good car.

Dealt with Sway … She is GREAT. Very knowledgeable Considerate and honest. I would recommend anyone needing a car to ask for Sway

The audio on the Carbon edition is outstanding. I purchased this SUV due to its value and reliability. I would highly recommend the Mazda CX 5.

Con”sway”la is a tiny thing but don’t let her size fool ya! During my 50+ years of buying either (Chrysler) luxury or sporty vehicles, I have never had a rep who knew more about every single aspect of each vehicle. She is a walking service manual! AND “Sway” actually listens to and cares about her clients. She’s honest and has an incredible personality! Ask for her!!!

Will not find a sharper looking enjoyable to drive crossover in it's class. 2025 CX5 Signature The top of line for 40,000 a sweet handling get up and go 2.5 turbo GDI.

Justin was thorough, patient & kind. His priority was helping not selling & I really appreciated that. He made the process smooth & easy especially when I needed to make changes or had questions. Love my vehicle, thank you Justin!
