So far, I'm loving the Mazda CX-5

I've had the car for a couple of weeks now and love it. My old car was 20 years old so it's been fun figuring out all of the new technology. I am please by how much room there is in the cargo area. It's really fun to drive, the cabin is quiet, it's responsive and very comfortable. The safety features are reassuring. The rear camera is such a valuable feature and I love that bluetooth is standard. And, as we just found out today, it handles well on icy roads. I'm very, very happy with it and I can't wait to take it camping this summer.

2015 CX-5 GT AWD with Tech Package

Owning this crossover since summer of 2015. Experienced first hand driving in the snow and icy condition, the grip and confidence to get you where you want to go with no trouble. Solid driving dynamic and above par on cornering. Interstate driving is stable and on-center with plenty passing power on the hill. This car performs as it promised!

My 2nd Mazda

I love my CX5! I owned a CX7 for 9 years, and it was well taken care of by the Ron Tonkin Mazda dealer that whole time. When it came time to purchase new, there was no doubt which dealer would get my business! The car features are terrific, and every day I find out something new (I may be a slow learner)! I've taken two significant road trips (the first one the day after I bought the car), and the comfort was incredible during the entire trips.

CX 5

I am very impressed with this vehicle's safety features, especially the auto braking while in cruise control. It is comfortable, agile and fun to drive! The safety features included also reduced my auto insurance by over $200 per year!

New car

I love driving my new CX5. I have taken it on several road trips and am very pleased with the handling around curves as well as the straightaways. Does great climbing hill, found I am using the sport mode less than I thought I would be, because I have plenty of power on hills. Even enough to pass without a problem. I also like the rear cross traffic alert system. It is so great in parking lots.

Cx 5 wins comparison with Honda CRV

After test driving the Honda CRV we found the Cx 5 features to compare favorably and driving performance and cabin comfort superior. The Cx 5 is noticeably quicker and more responsive. The feel of the vehicle is as comfortable as our top of the line sedan. Try it, you'll like it if you are in the market for a crossover SUV.

So sporty for a SUV

I have owned a number of cars and various makes but have never looked forward to driving my car because of how it felt. This car is so sporty and fun to drive. I am really enjoying my purchase.

2016 Mazda CX 5 is a sexy car

The CX 5 drives smoothly, has a pretty tight turning radius compared to other mid-size SUVs and is extremely comfortable. The level of technology available in the newer versions of the CX 5 are very impressive. Almost every aspect of the vehicle is computerized, including the parking break (which is a small button versus a lever) and is designed for safety. Each of the two rear view mirrors have blind spot detection and the back is complete with a back up camera. I traded my 2008 Mazda 3 in for the 2016 Mazda CX 5 and couldn't be happier with Mazda's commitment to creative innovation. I've been on cloud 9 since I left the dealership!

Mazda 2016 CX-5

Our CX-5 replaced a BMW X5 with the Sport Package. I was looking for a mid-size SUV with good performance and excellent handling. We got it! Excellent car with great features.

Good vehicle but not the most pet/kid friendly interior

I have a 2016 Mazda CX5 GT. It's a nice looking, well equipped vehicle, with good gas mileage for an AWD small SUV (I average 25.5 combined) and hasn't given me any mechanical issues in 14k miles. 14k miles may sound like Oh of course you wouldn't have mechanical issues... Drive the newer Ford Focus and you'll have transmission troubles way sooner than 14k miles ;-) My only complaint with this vehicle is the interior is NOT pet or kid friendly. The dash is some sort of soft material that collect dust and hair like crazy and it's not easy to wipe off like your typical plastic dash; it looks nice don't get me wrong. The leather seats has little pin holes (by design) look cool but you'll soon realize every crumb from every crunchy item anyone dares to eat in your new car will clog up those holes and even taking a little pin to try to push it through doesn't always dislodge the crumb; vacuuming with a shop vac won't even dislodge the crumbs! Finally, the center console lid is covered with a really soft leather or fake leather (not sure which) but it tears really easy. I've had several new cars over the years all the way from a Ford to a BMW and the interior of this car just doesn't hold up as well to the daily wear and tear from family & pets. If you have pristine kids, don't eat in your car, and hairless/nailess pets, this car is great!

Zoom zoom zoom! 2016 CX-5 is da bomb.

I love my CX-5. It's my fifth Mazda and now my favorite. It handles like a champ with the all-wheel drive, and I feel as safe as possible. It's big enough to fit everything I need and keeps me sitting high enough to really see what's going on. The gas mileage is phenomenal and I'm expecting to have very little reason to have it in for servicing--a major factor in my purchase. And last but not least, it's stylish with lots of wonderful bells and whistles. Love this crossover!

Luv it but...

Luv my CX-5 Except when I upgraded to an IPhone 6s my texting no longer worked in the car!!! Supposedly Mazda needs to do an update and the service advisor blamed it on Apple. I don't really care who's fault it is but I'm sooo mad!! That was a huge selling point and that feature no longer works!!!! I would have maybe purchased a different vehicle that actually has that technology!!! Mazda needs to keep up with technology!!!!
