2013 Toyota RAV4 vs 2014 Mazda CX-5 - Track Comparison

- Several months ago, AutoGuide set a Toyota RAV4 and Mazda CX-5 side-by-side. As you might remember, Mazda won.
It wasn't long before Toyota launched a letter our way expressing discontent with the result. And rightfully so. The previous verdict came, in part, because the all-wheel drive CX-5 scored more points in driving dynamics than the front-wheel drive RAV4 Toyota lent us for the shootout. Insisting on a rematch, the brand brought AutoGuide a more comparable model equipped with all-wheel drive.
This time around, the two are not only competing on a more level playing field, but the RAV4 actually has an ace up its proverbial sleeve, sporting a more sophisticated all-wheel drive system.

2021 Comment: Mazda CX-5 has aged fantastically well. Still looks 2016-2017 ish
Impressed with the CX5; would be inclined to choose this over the Rav4 4
Great video.. I was torn between a 2014 CX-5 & 2013 Rav4. I ended up going with the Rav mainly because of resale and interior comfort and looks. It's true that, especially on the Limited trim, the ride is rough and I cringe when I drive over even a minor pothole. Now, if I could afford an X3 this would be a different conversation!
I researched for months and read all reviews on the best compact SUVs and tested both CX5 and RAV4. We really wanted to like the CX5 better because of its gas mileage and high ratings but love the way the RAV4 looks inside and out. I am happy with the way it drives. We ended up choosing the AWD RAV4 and so far, couldn't be happier. I was pleasantly surprised to find out the back seats in the RAV recline and there is a lot of head and leg room in front and back seats.
did you get a 2013 rav4. you ever had any problems with it?
The review that i have been looking for! Because of this cx5 got my money. Thanks great review btw.
Hello after 10 years. Did ur mazda cx5 do well, I would like to know if u got rid of it or mazda aged well cuz im very interested in this model. I would love some info about it by previous owners (if u have the same youtube account ofc) bye
And the Escape was also recalled 3 times in its first year, one of them catching fire while driving
I really like the mazda cx-5's looks.....But what I really want to know is whether the song played i the beginning in a music track...if so, i'd really like to get the name
I like the exterior of the CX-5 but I like the interior of the RAV4
I own both cars. A blue 2013 Mazda CX-5 2.2 Skyactive-D AWD 175ps in the top trim Revolution (SatNav, Parking cam and sensors, Leather seats etc) and a white top trim 2015 Toyota RAV4 2.0 AWD petrol. Engines aside, the Mazda drives, looks and feels better and has better mileage. The Toyota...has a better both. Thats all. I hate the windnoise and actually all cabin noise from the cx-5. I hate the looks and driving of the rav4 in general. The cx-5 is for fun and power. The rav4...IDK...for whats worth, its a bit less noisy.
@@ancientslav4863 what’s a better both? Was that a typo?
@@SIIKAP1 Listen people. I bought the 2.2 cx5 2013 and it had and has a factory fault in that year. Sorry. English is bad, bu the top part of the motor where there are two metal pipes that rotate let lose some small particles into the engine and it just died. New engine and rwpwrirs were 7000eur, so I sold the shitty car. It's a bad car. The 2014 2.0 petrol is great but it's a bad car all in all. Don't waste your money.
@@ancientslav4863 good to know. Thank you for the input. Hopefully your rav4 held up well
i guess it's quite off topic but does anyone know a good website to watch new tv shows online ?
can you guys turn down the bass and turn up the voice? i keep adjusting my volume through watching
Could you please compare 2014 fiesta ST and 2014 mazda 3 S(2.5 engine)?
Thank you.
I would like to see 2014 Mazda CX5 vs 2014 Nissan Rogue track comparison.
I'm wondering how black makes the CX-5 interior 'conservative'?
for some reason the shorter guy driving the mazda looks like the dude from Eurotrip
Also, I'm going from an Impreza that was great in the snow to this Rav4... I hope it will be as good in the snow!
I have issue with you saying the Rav4 has leather interior. It does NOT. It's a synthetic "pleather" type material.
I like the front of the Toyota, but I like the rear of the Mazda... And the interior of the CR-V.
You can well replace the two reviewers with 2 speaking robots.
I don't get why people think it's SO absurd to test a CUV on a track. How else are you going to test it? Would you test a Mazda 6 on the track? Yes? Well they both have the same engines available and get this - a weight difference of only 11 lbs.
Mazda 6: 3183 lbs / 111.4" wheelbase
Mazda CX-5: 3194 lbs / 106.3" wheelbase
Yes of course I realize a CUV is taller and has a higher suspension setup, but we're not talking about some truck here. This is basically a raised hatchback.
by the way the RAV4 is 3435 lbs.
thats probably an exception
Ford came in at the bottom last year on overall reliability according to Consumer Reports, Toyota group and Mazda ranked 1, 2 respectively
statistics speak for themselves
My wife and I are going to buy the rav4 because of the overall dependability, reliability, and resale value. Happy that Mazda is making some headway in the US but I don't trust their small dealer network or their long term dependability rating.
I actually like both of these cars. If I were to buy one, it would be the Toyota due to its excellent engine and transmission. It is a proven product. The Mazda may be good also, but I would wait until it has been around a couple of years like the Toyota's drive-train.
Soooo, it’s been around for more than a couple years now & it’s awesome!!! You would’ve made a horrendous decision, goobs.
I wonder why they do not
show these vehicles driving in tge snow or other invlimate weather.
Buy Rav4 for reliability and comfort. CX-5 for driving dynamics and better MPG.
Also more cargo space , which is significant.
For the Rav4
CX5... good job, Mazda!
absurd? brilliant! i'm an aspiring track-day junkie (in my speed3), but have a baby on the way. i'll be in the market for a CUV at some point soon, i'm sure!
When you actually use the Rav4 for its intended purpose of carrying things you’ll appreciate that stiffer rear suspension.
testing crossovers on race track.. meanwhile at the autoguide... :D
I like the music choice but the beginning and the middle music is too loud my ear hurt with earphone
The only "premium" at the 2013 toyota rav4 is the price. At last here in Mexico, prices are to expensive.
It was joke? Interior in rav4 better then cx-5? Maybe in USA another material in this cars, but in Russia cx-5 have soft plastic, aluminum and real leather, but rav-4 hard plastic, painted plastic and synthetic leather. And rav4 with "leather" have disgusting smell. And design of interior, i don't understate, but rav4 inside is not so good.
this was limited edition of toyota
I had to say the same, my CX-5 here in Taiwan has a way nicer interior than the RAV-4 with just the base model. I think it's different in the US, but the new Skyactiv of Mazda makes this car so fun to drive and builds a lot of confidence in controlling the vehicle.
Probably his personal preference. The CX-5 has a really nice interior in the USA.
Nice review. The red car won!
Dont forget you can get the GT in a Sand Leather/Black interior which is very classy looking.
Hey guys, it's so funny when you compare vehicles like this and complain about things that are your own personal taste. Why don't you compare reliability through quality history? When a consumer buys a vehicle, it better start everyday and keep going as long as possible. All the electronic gadgets, fancy interior, correctly placed buttons will not replace quality!
BOOM and that's a actual fact!!!
"overall" crv #1 does well on every category especially that comfy ride. but i setteled for the 2013 rav4 ;P
joss gandos pokok e pak de
Mazda! It always come down to mazda. Heck yay!
Rav4 needs to go back to the previous gen but without the swinging gate. V6 for efficient power. More then 6 inches of ground clearance (basically a hatchback camry) Get rid of the grey plastic stuff >.>
volume issues
13 to 1 compression ratio in Mazda probably means premature engine smoking.
Years later and this comment didn't age well lol.
They're not rates even higher than. Toyota in reliability. (Though that doesn't mean Toyota is unreliable. Just shows how good both manufacturers are doing lol)
I love this car....
fair enough
it is definitely not fair for them to call the interior of the cx-5 bland. it can also have tan leather.
Testing and cross over and not bring out the Subaru forester?
joss kabeh gak ono sing elek. :D
The Mazda is still the better choice, and Toyota is the "mainstream" choice.
For some reason my opinion about the cars are just opposite to both of them
Hay i am looking to buy a car and i was thinking between the 2014 mazda CX-5 or the 2014 nissan rouge witch do you think is a better car Thanks
No contest.... Mazda CX-5 hands down.
thats what i was thinking but some friends told me nissan
The CX-5 is better handling, more fuel efficient, better looking and has a higher quality interior. Get the 2.5L version.
Google '2014 Nissan Rogue Autoblog'. You will run away screaming from the Rogue and go straight to the CX-5.
buy your mom something nice for me
if you say no one considering these care about laptimes why are you spending so much of the review talking about them in that context? personally i am interested in how they handle on the limits so the generalisations are void. fwiw tho i think in proper hands the cx5 would be more than 1.5 seconds quicker with the amount of understeer the rav has
Look it up on youtube. Lots of non-track reviews that put Mazda ahead.
No way I could invest 30k on Mazda. Toyota makes a more reliable and quality vehicle. This test isn't going to target the demographic for either vehicle.
My 92 Escort GT (part Mazda) is still running. With current warranties and modern roads, any major make will last at least 3 years, very likely 5. Are you going to hang on to your car for 25 years? If not, it doesn't matter.
Why not do a head on 0 to 60 track race..I mean u have both the cars...what a miss
Consumer reports allways rates imports better than home grown brands, also Escape was ranked last due to My Ford Touch not because it had lack of quality or not even because of 1.6 ecoboost recall, and consumer reports may have rated it worst but even now Escape is competing to the 1st spot in best selling compact crossovers in US,its because people like quality,handling,solidity of Escape, by 2016 new Escape facelift will arrive i think that will mark end of Rav4,CR-V era
Nope the arrival didn't end the Era lol.
I guess they were trying to be nice and find something decent to say about the Toyota. The interior is a mess. The Mazda looks much more refined from the gauges to the steering wheel and dashboard. On top of that the RAV4 has much lower ground clearance than the old one and I believe the Mazda 's is now actually greater. Toyota seemed to have forgotten that people tend to buy these to help them get through snow storms without being hung up.
Has anyone seen how many recalls Toyota has had lately ?
I love my Mazda CX5 deisel, V8 like power!
The Toyota looks ugly as hell compared to the CX-5. To me, looks mean a lot and therefore the Mazda is easily the one I'd pick.
to us asian like the looks of rav4 Toyota all the way I own 15 rav4
to most of you asians you dont own even a tenth of a rav4, you truly own only the communism ideology, sorry!
ugly but it will outlast that mazda lol
Mazda CX 5 .... Is great.....
mazda cx-5 is better car,more technology, fuel economy, reliability and appearance
adaptive HIV?
The mazda winns hands down.I have a mazda and toyota but have you ever noticed that toyota and honda can't ever make a crossover like the rav4 or crv look good. If the back looks good and front is bad, and if the front looks good the back looks bad. Just like todays honda crv the front looks really good and the back looks bad same for the rav4
Good comparison but I find most reviews are abt speed, power, tork, interior and blah blah and forget the most important aspects - reliability and dependability. No mentioning about how long a vehicles can last or the engine quality. Hope you can focus more on the quality of the engine than just the farts they make in the future. No offense 😂
Today mazda reliability is way better than lexus
seriously, CX-5 do not drive like a CUV, it's more like a sedan for its steering and body rolling. Nice car. RAV-4 has reputations of engine and transmissiong lasting for ever, thanks for FORDs suckie ass tranny ruining Mazda's reputation. But the new skyactiv technology that had included engine, tranny, and all the way down to the chasis makes the Mazda a much much nicer ride to have~
It's too early to call the new mazdas reliable but I'm REALLY hoping they are
Cx5 is the best crossover 4ever
Haha All these negative comments about CUV's obviously if the Mazda won but you TOYOTA / Mazda cheerleaders won't just go out an test drive them yourselves you see what's best for you.
My friend who has Kuga 2.0 TDCi has 0 troubles and its lightyears better than cx-5 and Rav 4
CX5
Damn $29K ...Scion XB has the same engine for under $29k and roomier. Seriously who really take these CUV off road?
Mazda, al the way contrary to the narrative here, I want a car that handles well.
السيارة مازداcx5 افضل كثيرا من راف فور
just on "sportiness"
Ford Escape is better than both of these, Mazda has wind noise road noise and has stiffer suspension than Ford, Escape has the best balance between stiffness and plushness in ride and it handles better than RAV4 just shy of cx-5
176 horsepower to 184 horsepower not a big difference lol. its not like the mazda is 250 hp lol. i bet that Rav4 will outlast that mazda lol in reliability and fixing it lol
Yeah.... Mazda now has a higher reliability rating than Toyota.
The rav 4s sell good because their boring family cars. Only the new 2019+ ones are cool. But they're WAY to slow for them to have 205hp
With even the base 2.5l 185hp cx5 still having better acceleration and handling. That's not factoring in the 250hp turbo 2.5 Mazda now offers as of 2019
@@nighttimestalker i ended up getting a Lexus rx350 lol
@@angelbluerider9588 but mazda reliability is way better than overpriced Lexus
👍👍👍mazda 4 ever am might buy a 2019 cx3 30.000 miles $15.000k
Racetrack with a couple of CUVs? Seriously?
Mazda is a way to go
Mazda CX5 Zoom Zoom!
CX-5 Tripodding @1:12 O_O
What about Subaru Forester, i'm sure that the naturaly aspireted version will smoke these two, and forget the XT turbocharged version hahaha! Subarus are sporty, these two are not!
Toyota RAV4
i bet that toyota will outlast That mazda cx5 in long term reliability.
Mazda cx 5 is more fun to drive
the mazda looks great in the track, the rav4 looks like a soccer mom trying to run away from something... not as sporty....
mazda cx-5 is very beautiful,fuel economy,reliability,more technology.
The old- fashioned toyota tried to upgrade but failed..
Mazda..!
I would take the rav4 hands down
maybe mazda is more fun to drive but in 4-5 years lets see how much fun it will be when your mazda is already full of rust and starting to get expensive to fix, and after 2-3 years has dropped in resale value substantialy, toyota quality , reliability and resale value is number 1, honda and subaru are way ahead of that cheaply built mazda also
It's so silly how misinformed you are haha.
guy proulx you're right it happens here Costa Rica buy a Rav 4 and Mazda x5 and few years the Mazda its price will go drown.
I agree
thats what i said. toyota 200k miles easy. mazda junk yard at 200k
@@angelbluerider9588 you should adjust your low IQ
Its sad but ppl will buy the rav 4 only because it has more room
Rav4 is the best... I have it rav4 2013 love it.... much better than mazda3...
The RAV4 doesn't stand a chance in agility compared to the CX-5.
Second slap on Toyota. Oops.
If you are a good and aggressive driver, go for the CX5. If you drive like an Asian grandma, go for the RAV4.
🤣👍
Rav4 suxxxxxx!!!
the toyota rav is fugly aesthetics wise..
Rav 4 exterior looks better
Mazda..
mazda the best
BOTH THE SAME MAZDA looks better. And price would go to the RAV4.
Service here is Western Pa is awful for TOYOTA, Paint issues .
Botswana car sale
but the cx-5 rides better.
Mazda 2
Toyota 0
Thank god no more v6 rav 4
