Is k4 gt line will be soon with you
I'm sorry but that steering wheel looks terrible.
It almost looks lifted, like a Toyota Crown. Not complaining at all.
Where in the hell they get this reviewer from? He's hideous
Should've put it on Sport mode. Acceleration is more punchier.
The lack of HP is most disturbing. 147 is too low. But it's a nice car
packed with features tho. Id argue most people dont need power
If you want power, get the GT-LINE turbo. This powertrain is for those who want to save money at the pump.
Better than a 139 hp Corolla for the same price. Not too far away from a 158 hp civic
@@mycathasawhitetoe Civic lost 8 powers on the 2025 model year. Now it's 150hp. Only hp difference.
It seems exaggerated responded to the instant torque for the acceleration. The first time I tried on my Model X P100D with Ludicrous mode on ran 0-60 in 2.87 seconds as the device showed. I did not even have your exaggerated reaction. Yes, it slapped me to the seat, but the sensation is just like a rush of power pushing your forward and that only lasted less than 2.87 seconds for me. I drove my wife's Model Y Performance, which ran a 0-60 3.66 seconds time and I did not even feel that great of a rush anymore. I see many youtubers trying to exaggerate the reaction to the acceleration. It isn't really that crazy, it is manageable and quite under control and that rush of power will be gone between 2.7 and 3.7 seconds for the Performance versions of Model X and Y. May be it is just me. I don't even drive fast, but the first time doing the 0-60 time test, I did not even feel that crazy.
IT LOOKS SOOO GOOD
Love this spec
Come 2025/26 The next gen. CX5 will blow this out of the water. With a rumoured PHEV combined 328HP! Been saving my cash for 2+ years now. Can't wait!
That’s also the base Meridian stereo in that car. I have the upgraded version my car and find it quite good. A lot of the 2024s in the US only have the base stereo because the upgraded units were on constraint for a time.
What setting did you have the suspension on? If you have it set to comfort it should be pretty comfortable. On the stiffer performance setting it is a bit more jarring but the handling chops go up a lot. Anyway, I have a 2024 R and I find it incredibly smooth and comfortable when I want it to be (i.e.: Consciously put it in comfort mode).
Did it not have a moonroof?
sounds like someone running for president ANSWER THE QUESTION???? unriliable??? wth
I would choose the CX5 every time… CX5 split rear seats 40-20-40…CX5 has better finishes less hard plastics…

The quality of the CX-5 is superior built (Japan).
Drove them both, bought a CX-5 Signature over a loaded CX-50 Meridian last year. Saved about $3k. The CX-5 Signature is on par with the Acura RDX or Lexus RX, the CX-50 is more like a Subaru Outback. Choosing which one you like depends on your taste. Luxury vs the outdoorsman vibe.
Back in 77 a friend of mine showed up to the house with one of those brand spanking new and we drove it and it was like on Rails trust me we drove it like we stole it😅😅😅😅😅 awesome car
Great info❤
For me it was an easy decision. I checked out both the CX-50 and CX-5 and went with the CX-5. More luxurious, to me CX-5 has a nicer interior, I liked the seats much better, easier to get in and out of without hitting my head, made in Japan. The only reason I might get a CX-50 over a CX-5 is if I were living out in the country and was going to use it more like a Subaru Outback. I drive mainly in the city and highways in Florida with lots of rain so the CX-5 Turbo Premium with AWD is about perfect for me.
The dimensions are practically the same, the other difference is thr exterior and interior desgin. Oh yea, the cx5 ks also made in japan, while 50 in AL. If i was leasing, id consider the cx50, but buying wise, i would choose the cx 5 all day
Rear suspension
1 reason to get cx5 - has independent multi link rear suspension.
The center control knob is crucial. I may switch brand if they listen to the Americans who griped so much about wanting to use the screen more. At least, you can program the screen to be used while driving now.
Why should they hear the minorities? The vast majorities of Mazda owners around the world prefer the knob over touchscreen. Go ahead switch to other brands, the less of mazda owner like you will be much better anyway lmao
That’s ugly and I’ll take the cx 5 all day long
I got a '24 cx 50 premium plus turbo last weekend. I love it. I think it drives great. Seems much lighter than its appearance. Will put in 93 tomorrow and see how the extra hp feels but even on 87 it has a decent amount of power to it.
I have a 2023 CX-5 Turbo Premium Plus, and I really cannot tell the difference between regular and premium gasoline - it is plenty peppy on regular.
$44k 😂 really
I bought a cx5 in June 27th and traded in my mazda3, the cx50 doesn't really meet for what I use my vehicles for; I use my car for to drive from work and home I don't really need a rugged looking car
I would take the CX 5 made in Japan. Also like the looks better on it.
cx5 all day long
No CX5 Everyday of the week
Turbo premium plus package... ridiculous price with torturing rock hard seats. No thanks.
Cx 50 has cheaper suspension. The quality is much better in the Cx 5
I'm 99% sure the CX5 is still made in Japan, which does make a difference in attention to detail. The CX50 has great reviews too, .......
With that “cheaper suspension” comes with more towing ratings
Curious so this rides better even without independent rear suspension and can you feel the center leather strip on the seat?
Your opinion is only that . an opinion ,,,,,,,,Go get a real job .......
I love my cx5 preferred. It was the best choice for me. The cx-50 is nice but personally I find the handling/driving in the cx5 to be better and more comfortable. You really can’t go wrong with either one. Choose your favorite and you will have many years of enjoyment and happy driving.
lol “It just feels better to me” is not a persuasive argument. CX-5 made in Japan, not… Alabama. Nuff said.
Yep, makes all the difference. Like the cx50, but big turn off.
I bought a CX-5 over a CX-50, mainly because the seats in the CX-50 are rock hard compared to a CX-5. The interior looks cheaper in the CX-50, though wish the CX-5 had a moonroof.
I agreed except the seats . I tried the seat in the showroom, and I actually like the CX50 more. However, I own a CX5 because it's a bit easier to park. I really don't need a bigger car , we're empty nesters. If I live in LV with big wide roads and parking lots, then CX50 may be my choice.
For me I hated that single vent in the middle of the dash
CX 50 interior looks so boring. Fake vents look so cheap.
Is everyone a fruit?
I like the CX-50 too! The steering wheel looks a bit low for you - may be the angle of the camera
Quick question. What color is this CX-50.
Looks like machine gray metallic.
Drive both. Choose the one you like. Likes the meridian CX-50, panoramic roof, and body shape, and had the complete opposite reaction about ride. I like the Japanese made CX-5 for comfort, visibility, and ride quality.
I still don't understand why the meridian one doesn't have meridian sound system 😂
The non turbo is very slow, 2.5 moves the CX5 much better
One is made in Japan wirh a nicer interior and one is made in US and styled to look butch with fake vents, cheaper suspension and a cheaper interior.
Strange interiors. Infotainment is awkward and cup holders are behind your arm.
The cupholders are in the front on the console of the CX 50!
Your face look more awkward than this car interior. Pathetic
The newer one is more practical. One is made in Japan while the other is our states. Gonna give the cx50 a few more years before i come back to change my mind
This is the same model/trim that I went with. I love it so far! My biggest complaint is the drink holder placement, but it's not the end of the world for me. Also.. super random, but around the 6-minute mark. Is that Duraleigh Road? I thought It looked super familiar! haha
