I had the opportunity to rent a CX-90 Turbo Premium for 1 week and drove it over 400 miles in all sorts of different conditions, roads, weather and speeds. Here’s my review of the vehicle coming from a current 2019 CX-9 Grand Touring owner (had it since new and mostly love it despite a few...
For those that have taken advantage of the December CX-5 incentive for 0% down for 60 months, was there a loan origination fee or any other surprise fee tacked on? If so, how much?
Can anyone provide an update on the durability of the CX-5 exterior gloss black trim on the front bumper, wheel arches, side skirt and rear bumper? Are you finding that they scratch super easy? It looks like jofo67 is pleasantly surprised, but I'm curious to hear if other owners of trims with...
Without driving impressions, it's not a review. What we've seen so far are just 'first impressions' of the exterior styling and interior. Excited to hear and see the reviews on Monday!
US dealerships have begun to receive 2022 CX-5's, including Capistrano Mazda (Southern California). Salesman there have posted some videos of the various trims on their YouTube channel:
Select
Carbon
Premium
Premium Plus
Someone needs to go test drive a 2022 and report back on the seats and...
If you end up choosing the CX-50 out of those options, I recommend getting the turbo. I’ve had a naturally aspirated CX-5 and a CX-9 (Turbo) and it’s a night and day difference in terms of power around town and throttle response from a stop. Having the turbo really changes the dynamic of the...
With the CX-50 being manufactured in Alabama, does anyone have concerns about the build quality of this new model compared to the Japanese assembled vehicles?
Now that the 2022 CX-5’s will soon be arriving at dealerships, does anyone have photos and sizing of the new wheels for the various trims for the new model year?
Thanks for posting this pic! It looks like there might be 3 different trims here based on the rims and use of chrome accents. Blue could be a Signature, white a Grand Touring, and red a Touring or Sport.
Does anyone have information on the length and height of the CX-50 compared to the CX-5 and CX-9? I’ve heard that the CX-50 and CX-5 are about the same length, but the photos I’ve seen make the new model look much longer.
Following-up here to update you all on my tire situation on the CX-9 (2019 Grand Touring on 20" wheels). The stock Bridgestone Ecopia H/L 422 Plus lasted about 28K miles and I needed a set of all-season tires that would do decently well in the snow, but was looking to retain good driving...
Wasn't sure how Mazda was going to pull off a 'rugged' design style, but they did a really nice job! This is like a mini 'Defender' Mazda style! Very curious to learn about the dimensions, both exterior and interior, when they're released.
If the CX-50 is being marketed as the "outdoorsy" model in the Mazda line-up, then I doubt it will be any lower than the CX-5, it will likely be taller.
This teaser video makes the CX-50 appear much larger than the CX-5, it looks more like the CX-9 with what appears to be a long hood.
I really hope they don't wreck the design with giant plastic cladding like the CX-30.
Is the 2nd generation engine block cracking issue that results in a required engine replacement only happening to the 2016 through 2018 model years? I have a 2019, so I'm curious if mine could be effected by this problem or if they remedied the issue for the 2019 model year.
Does anyone have information on the 2022 model year changes for the CX-9? Of course it won't be a significant model refresh or a new model by any means (with the CX-90 coming as the replacement to the CX-9 as a 2023 model), but I'm curious to learn of any changes to the trim levels and features...
