What we like
The CX-5 offers superior comfort and great fuel economy for those who drive a lot. It also leads its class in handling and handling. Skyactiv technology is designed to optimize suspension, construction and powertrain, which it does well. Three handles located on the rear seat make it easy to lower and accommodate loads of different sizes. The Mazda CX-5 has a lot of nice standard features that set it apart from the competition.
