New 2nd-gen CX-5 started to reach US dealers during the first week of April. In the mean time Mazda offered heavy incentive of $2,000 cash back for its 2016.5 CX-5's. Now Mazda is offering 0% APR financing for 36 months plus no payments for 90 days on 2017 CX-5.

For comparison, Nissan Rogue、Chevy Equinox、Kia Sportage are the only 3 in compact CUV category having the sales increase over previous month in June, 2017. The result is Nissan Rogue now is the top seller for the month and Chevy Equinox made a great jump to number 3 passing Honda CR-V! Hyundai Tucson in the mean time passed our Mazda CX-5, but just barely. Here're CX-5 competitor's sales figures for the month of June, 2017:

Coincidentally Hyundai Tucson also overtook Mazda CX-5's US sales position in June. Hyundai must be doing something in June worldwide.

Yes for the first time in Australia, the Tucson did claim the mid-SUV sales position for the month with unusually high numbers. The CX-5 still recording consistent numbers dropping to 2nd for the month but still leading year to date sales. It's a close battle nonetheless in arguably the most competitive segment in the market.

0% 36 Months? So, $800/$900 month payments?

I guess they are trying to go upscale.

New 2nd-gen CX-5 started to reach US dealers during the first week of April. Meanwhile Mazda is still offering heavy incentive such as $2,000 Customer Cash for its 2016.5 CX-5.

For comparison, in July 2017 Toyota RAV4 has made the biggest monthly volume increase reached record level 41,804 units overtook Nissan Rogue easily by 9,379 units as the top seller in the US. Honda CR-V has not been performed well and moving up to number 3 position only because GM hasn't release its sales figures for July otherwise Chevy Equinox could outsell CR-V again like last month. With 19.4% MoM increase Mazda CX-5 barely passed Hyundai Tucson moving up one slot.

Sad to see a white goods/appliance leading the sales chart followed by an fairly agricultural SUV

People over there need to take a CX-5 for a test drive before blindly following the status quo

 

[yrwei52]

Nissan Rogue has provided an excellent example of making sales increase from bottom all the way to the top in this compact CUV class. Nissan sold 75,053 Rogue's in 2008 with the first full-year sales report available. Now it's 329,904 for 2016 competing with those top dogs! Mazda sold 79,544 CX-5's in 2013 with the first full-year sales report available. But it's 112,235 for 2016 and 68,479 units year-to date for 2017 even with new 2nd-gen CX-5 helping the sales. Mazda really needs to learn something on sales model from Nissan Rogue.

They should have just chopped the 3rd row and made "it" the new CX5. This mid-8 second 0-60 is unacceptable from a company that has "zoom zoom" as a slogan. More like "wheeze gasp".

I believe their zoom zoom mantra was meant as a vehicle you can throw into the corners really well vs. "zip zip" that will just satisfy the 0-60 times...the other thing is they're developing vehicles with better fuel economy than bigger/faster engines to beat 0-60 times with other manufacturers. I know their 0-60s are pale in comparison to other brands but hey at least their fuel economies are better...i guess you can't really have both as one aspect will have to suffer so just comes down to which they prefer - fuel economy or 0-60 sprint time?

 

[Dimcorner]

Rouges sell because they are cheap. My co-worker got an FWD SV for about $6000 off MSRP (discount and rebate)!

I just looked up true car estimates and Rouge and RAV 4 are at least 12% off MSRP (Rouge is actually almost 18% off!). CR-V and CX-5 hover about 7% off.

 

[Xeler8ing]

Rouges sell because they are cheap.

And people don't know better (lol)

 

[Buzzman12]

the V6 Honda Accord Coupe is an amazing car for almost the same exact price!

FYI: Better get one now. It's being discontinued for the 2018 model year. No Coupe, no V6. Just another appliance now.

Look at all those stupid people that didn't listen to fruit boy and bought a CX-5 anyway. I guess he's not doing a good enough job.

 

[Red MC]

It's funny how the sales numbers in this segment swing back and forth month to month. At the beginning of the year, RAV4 sales were following 2016 levels but then they offered a $2k rebate and it's been selling like mad for the last few months, so you might assume it's all about price. But Ford also has a $2k incentive on the Escape and sales declined 15%. The Escape is just screaming for an interior facelift at this point. The 2018 Equinox just hit dealer lots, so a sales bump is understandable. But in my opinion, GM has undeservedly high sticker prices these days and without significant incentives I don't know why people are buying. I also don't know why the Tuscon and Sportage suddenly dropped and the Outback spiked up, since nothing significant changed for the 2018 MY.

I wonder how much is due to fleet sales. The Rouge is heavily used in the rental market, as is the Equinox. I have never seen a rental CR-V or CX-5, but I am sure they are some.

Columbus Intl Airport Avis has rental Mazda's - 3 and 6. Not seen a CX-5, saw a Forester though, again a rare rental car. Next time I go there I will specify I need a Mazda or a Toyota atleast. No Nissans or Chevys please.
