Hello,
I'm new here. I'm coming from a 2017 Honda Civic Sedan Touring.
My previous cars were SUVs and it might be nice to get back into an AWD one. I'm looking at a 2019 CX-5 Reserve.
Do you still like yours after having it for a little bit? I see a few pluses and minuses vs my Civic.
The center head unit displays are both supposed to be 7 inches, but the Honda's seems larger. Do you find it big enough? Is the navigation usable?
It certainly is nice getting 30 mpg in the Honda. Do you get decent mileage in the CX-5?
A nice surprise I found in the Honda was that it has remote start built-in. That helps on those snowy mornings. Does the CX-5 have this by any chance?
I have seen people mention that the Lane Keeping Assist on the CX-5 and Civic are slightly different. The Honda will pretty much steer down the road by itself with your hands only touching the steering wheel. I've seen posts that say the CX-5 Lane Keeping Assist is more oriented toward warning you that you are veering outside your Lane. Is this true or are they actually both pretty similar?
Does the CX-5 leather wear well? Is it comfortable? Is the car more like driving a sports car or a tugboat?
I read about people pocket-pressing the buttons on the CX-5 key fob. Is this a problem?
Barry.
