@@JeffDietzphoto You know NOTHING !! Bought my Mazda CX 3 in 2021 in Thailand . Have done 40,000 Km and ave fuel consumption is at 16.3Km/Litre equals 45 Miles per gallon ( English Gallons !! )
@@garrington120 you say I know nothing... then go right on to say and confirm exactly what I just said... And i don't know what magical version you have but the stated MPG of a cx-3 (that aren't made anymore) is 25 city and 31 highway... the mazda 3 SEDAN, which is not a cx, can see a 40mpg. But that's like the 2015 version. The newest model gets 26 and 35 , your math is also not very good. 16.3km is 10.12 miles and 1 liter equals about 3.8 gallons so that equals about 38.5 miles per gallon, not 45... and again even that is no where close to the listed spec mpg for that car. Again maybe the sedan is closer, but that's a Mazda 3 not a cx 3
The ratings do not comprehend. long term reliability. No one comes close to Toyota in that category. Korean vehicles look nice and have good features but don’t last.Hyundai’s have major engine issues just look at the government complaint database.
Of all the cars mentioned her, I chose The Tucson!… just purchased the 2023 hybrid and it’s by far the best!!! The Dash integration is 100% … I’ve never seen any car with interior as this!! I hope Hyundai keep this look!
Mazda should build a rugged STANDOUT ... 4 Door Pick up that really rocks the socks of buyers . Create interest followed by demand and on the back of consumer demand for this exclusive best seller release a SIX . cylinder MAZDA CX 5
You gotta wonder why there are ZERO electric cars on this list. A Kia Niro EV (for example) is 3x as energy efficient as a Hyundai Tucson Hybrid. Additionally, electricity is FAR cheaper than gasoline nearly everywhere.
Most of those have continuously variable transmissions CVT that will break if one of teeth break usually at about 25Kmiles. pick a normal transmission if you dont believe, ask youtube about cvts.
You're right about most having CVTs and I'm not saying you're wrong about CVTs reliability entirely but CVTs have progressed and aren't nearly as problematic as they were early in their lives. Don't forget, there's been plenty of standard transmissions that have been a nightmare too.
Four door taxis are for the new generations that do not enjoy standard trans. cars. This are the true push buttoners that want life to be as easy going as possible. Low performance engines with paddle shift cvt transmissions.Who needs an SUV for $50,000 to $95,000. ?
The model year being sold at the time the article was published was 2022 MY but knowing how CR does things, they probably looked back multiple years in determining the reliability portion of their analysis.
And what about Mazda? This video sounded like an infomercial for Toyota products and, as far as the Forrester, my direct experience was the sudden death of that engine in the one of a close friend of mine at only 70,000 miles and the total disinterest of Subaru's customer service in that issue. That car was regularly serviced with oil changes and so on. No US made cars??? The CX5 didn't make that list, even the base model comes well appointed and at a much lower price than the one you listed. Just my thoughts.
It is a tradition of the Consumer Reports to ignore U.S. - made vehicles. I am so happy with my 1.5t Chevy Equinox (2021 with 60K miles driven) that I am thinking about buying a new one. But I will consider Tucson and Corolla-Cross.
The Tucson is garbage and puts into question the entire list. The absolute worst service in trying to get anything looked at. Things just randomly stop working in the electrical such as the apple car play connection, the remote start or even the keyless entry handles. They work when they want to
The Forester 2021 is the most annoying car ever! I would never buy another one. The electronics and stop engine functions will make you go absolutely crazy.
all these cars are womenish girlish cars, its really sad that land cruiser, nissan patrol, or chevy tahoe just dont come close when its about fuel consumption.
Prices have been somewhat fluid in the past year or so especially when components were not available and certain trim levels were temporarily not offered. Inflation obviously as inflated prices...in some cases quite noticeably. Although I've made a mistake here and there, I believe these prices were correct at the time of making the video.
I’m sorry but I really feel that the GMC Acadia and the Chevrolet Traverse should have been in there as they are very high ratings and awesome handling
You may disagree with it but this based on Consumer Reports rankings and they do put a lot of time into surveyings owners and analyzing/reviewing vehicles. Doesn't mean they are spot on, of course.
If you really believe Hyundai is #1 I have a tropical island in the South Pole I would like to sell you. CR can and is bought and paid for by different companies. Hyundai😂
Mazda did not have to bribe them to be on their list..Consumer Reports is the most unreliable out of all the cars...and anything they report on...If Yugo pay them enough money,they will say it's the best small car on the market.
Biggest bullshit review,all these vehicles has the unreliable CVT...they are expensive and high maintenance...But most of all..not one Mazda on the list....CX30,CX5,CX9....Mazda beat Lexus and Toyota in reliability ....
As this is CR's list (not mine) I don't take any offense at your comment. As for CVTs, I question the vitriol frequently directed at them in the comments of my videos. Yes, in the early days they definitely had many problems but it seems less these days. More mfg's have moved to them yet complaints seem less and less. There's probably still some bum ones here and there but there's crappy automatics out there too.
@@auto_exclusive Just remember CVT has a belt,just like an engine timing belt...CVT might be good for cold states and country,but not good for hot places like Florida and if you tow anything heavy.more problems..There is a reason some car manufacturers give you 10/yr/100.000 miles..most people don't keep their vehicles that long or get's into a wreck..that warranty is only good for the original owner...CR is the worst,they get paid by the companies to rate their products...Many,many years ago they were reputable....not anymore..
@Neil Charles any person with common sense is going to research what they'd need as far as towing capicity before buying. As far as the Florida heat and a CVT. Not sure an AWD draws to much attention down south.
Thanks for watching! Which vehicle on this list really appeals to you? Let us know down below...
I put a deposit on a Crosstrek Premium with the six-speed.
No clutch, no sale.
Are the Hyundai Tucson and KIA Sportage sister models?
Consumer reports is full of crap now
I agree with RAV4, my cousin has a '99, still drives it daily to this day, never had even 1 issue and she's the type that just gets in and goes
Mazda CX 5... 242,000 km and 345000 km.. still running. As a bonus , fun to drive in this segment
This review is all B/S...Mazda beat them all in reliability and not one model made the list..
agreed. cx5 offers reliability, comfort, affordable and fuel efficiency with skyactive engine.
I'm in the market for a new SUV and so far after driving a few on this list, my favorite is the Subaru Forester Wilderness.
