Junction 9 Posted 30 July, 2013 Share Posted 30 July, 2013 Having seen the other Mazda thread, I wondered if any of you have bought or driven the CX-5. Got one coming at the end of August. Reviews wise, seems to be a very good car. It was on Top Gear this sunday gone, but you couldn't call it a review as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iansums Posted 30 July, 2013 Share Posted 30 July, 2013 I recently got the Mazda 6 (has the same engine) and a work colleague is probably going for the CX5. I'm delighted with the Mazda 6, best thing about it for me is the low emissions which is saving me a fortune in company car tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVSaint Posted 30 July, 2013 Share Posted 30 July, 2013 I've got the 2013 Touring model. Might have liked to have waited for the current one with the larger 2.5l, but got a nice deal on the outgoing 2013 car. The 2.0 I have feels a bit underpowered up the gradients and joining the motorway but fine around town. Handles very well, feels like a normal car. Fuel economy is great. I like it.

Are you talking about the CX-5? There is no 2.5l engine available and I've not heard of a touring model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks as though there is an entirely different lineup of models/spec names here in the States then. (E.g. - there is no diesel version here yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junction 9 Posted 31 July, 2013 Author Share Posted 31 July, 2013 Perhaps they think there's no call for a 2.5l petrol over here then. I have read that they expect 80% of their sales to be the diesel model in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
