De gustibus. I personally like the design. I find it way more atractive than other cars in this class.
What's next for the CX-5?

true. we all have different tastes no doubt
. We have put 30,000 miles on ours since the end of January of 23 and I like the handling and the drivetrain feel. I can stomach the front end and side view ok but the back end just looks wrong to me. Fortunately I can see the back end while driving..

There is 0 commonality between a conventional belt/chain-driven CVT like what you'd find in a Forester or Rogue with the eCVT system found in the RAV4 hybrid. The "ratios" are all governed by an electric motor, which decides where to shuffle EV and gasoline power. (whether to the wheels directly or to the hybrid battery) This motor is called MG1. The hybrid battery can then use that power with MG2 (the main EV traction motor) or MGR (the rear AWD electric motor). It's not adjusting the transmission ratio to change the torque multiplier or drive ratio.

Have you guys seen this spy photo yet? Looks a little rugged to be a CX5, but you never know. Too early for a CX50 update?

2026 Mazda CX-5 Hybrid?
The picture above shows a camouflaged SUV that seems to be coming soon. Of course, it could very well be some new Chinese brand SUV or even something from

Interesting...Great find! Hmm...Yeah seems a bit early for a CX-50 refresh especially considering the CX-5 hasn't had a major update in eons.Have you guys seen this spy photo yet? Looks a little rugged to be a CX5, but you never know. Too early for a CX50 update?

Quite frankly, I like the current CX-5 design, biased of course, and I would feel sorry if they come up with some CX-90 like design for CX-5. I wish they keep the tiptronic gearbox and, maybe, just mabe, they do minor design alterations to the current bread and butter Mazda sell in the US-Canada market.

I hear ya, it's a sign of a great design! That said, Gen 1 owners said the same thing when Gen 2 came out and now Gen 2 is probably favored more...If the CX-5 continues, it's going to need some major updates to keep those sales numbers up.
