Going forward, Toyota and Mazda are working together on new engines and hybrids. This can only be good 👍.
I saw one on the road and said “yep I want one..” did some research and waited forever and I finally just recently got one! It’s everything I was expecting and more. Drives better than my BMW and the seats feel so niceeee. I’m very satisfied. Mazda gives you more than just a car, they give you an experience.
I own a 2018 Mazda CX-5 and I LOVE IT TO NO END!!! It is such a good car, and kept me safe while hydroplaning. I trust Mazda more than any other brand, I will ALWAYS own a Mazda.
i love mazda because their the only company that dared give the rotary a chance and earned my respect i’ve rebuilt the rx-7 3 times and i don’t regret any of them
I am biased to Subaru but when I drove 2019 CX-5 it felt like a complete vehicle. The handling is great, power excellent. It's so luxurious without being over the top. Very functional family vehicle. Good safety features as well.
@@DUCOS1795no it does not. And the infotainment screen is smaller than this 2019. But 2019 is the start of this generation so you will have a lot of similar things like.
Bought a signature turbo on the lot brand new last January. My entire shopping prior to that point was for an Audio SQ5. As soon as I sat in it I knew it was nicer than the audi. Confused the hell out of me.
Same exact here. Just paid my CX-5 off last week and ready to add another Mazda so I guess I’ll go for this in the next couple of days. I’ve got the money saved! I like Audi a lot but for half of the price I’ll forgo the snobby European badge.
The all wheel drive is not for driving in snow. A fwd car with winter tires outperforms a 4x4 with regular tires by far. Of course it helps, but without proper tires it is as useless as a 2x4.
Man you can really go in depth for just a minute, I heard about you from my brother(he's always watching you on TIk Tok) and I gotta say you're my favorite car reviewer. Keep up the great work!!🔥🔥
Tbh Mazda rn as a whole is slept on apart from the MX-5, extremly good price to quality ratio, decent power, not verry heavy (especially the mazda 3), verry fun handling across most models (again especially the mazda 3 since its smaller), verry reliable cars and interior build quality on par with german brands such as BMW or Audi at toyota prices
Wait did they completely remove any touch abilities from the console screen🤔🤔 seems strange but honestly I almost only ever use the dial, that thing is super handy.
We got one as a loaner recently and absolutely loved it. Very nice and comfortable and well equipped. Was the dark grey with red seats which we also loved. Only thing we didn’t like was it very sluggish trying to get up on the highway
1 bought my first new mazda cx5 in 2013, then the 2nd in 2017. While having cx60 in my crosshairs, i can personally attest that cx5 is car that will not fail you, it drives great and is very functional plus it just doesn’t break. The tank could be 10 liter bigger, but that’s about my only complaint but not a deal breaker at all
