Mazda CX-5: Practical Compact SUV For Practical Use, And With Style

1. Overview

Generally the Mazda CX-5 is an SUV for those who find the Nissan Qashqai a bit too small and a BMW X3 too expensive. However, this car is actually far better than such a description implies. Unsurprisingly since it's cheaper to buy than premium-badged SUVs of the same size, the CX-5 doesn't feel quite as plush inside. The dashboard design, for example, majors on clear, easy-to-operate controls, which looks far from too flashy. It's pretty painless to live with, and the fact that the infotainment screen can be operated via a rotary controller down by the gearlever makes it very easy to use on the ride.

The CX-5 diferentiates itself from its rivals in that it’s only available with a 2.0-litre petrol or 2.2-litre diesel engine, rather than a raft of downsized turbocharged petrol units, smaller diesels or hybrid engines. The former has 163bhp and is available with front-wheel drive and a manual gearbox, whilst the latter can be had with 148bhp or 173bhp and the option of four-wheel drive and an automatic gearbox. There's more room in the CX-5 than you thought you need. The cargo space, for example, will easily hold enough luggage for a family camping holiday, while the rear seats are just wide enough for three people to sit abreast. Head and leg room for all occupants is well done.

2. Interior Comforts

Generally speaking it’s a refined cabin, too, with a subtle, unobtrusive but noticeable grumble from the engine, but aside from that it’s a serene place to be most of the time. Only at motorway speeds does wind and road noise become present and even then it’s hardly noticeable. Thanks to its SUV styling the CX-5 has a high up driving position that offers a commanding view of the road ahead. The cabin is cavernous with room for five. Rear seat passengers get ample leg and headroom and the boot is large enough to swallow plenty of luggage or shopping. All models are well equipped as standard, with Bluetooth, cruise control, automatic lights and wipers, dual-zone climate control and an infotainment screen. This is controlled by a dial mounted near the handbrake – those familiar with BMW’s iDrive system will recognise it, and it’s fairly easy to use when on the go.

The boot has a genius tonneau cover which pulls out and clips into the rear window frame. It means there’s no bulky parcel shelf to move in and out of the car when bulky items need carrying and because it clips into the tailgate it has no need to be manually retracted every time it’s needed, which is such a nice touch that adds to the already impressive practicality. Its 503 litre capacity can be expanded to 1620 litres by folding the rear seats – an easy task thanks to quick release of levers in the boot. While the cabin might be spacious and practical it’s also one of the few areas in which the CX-5 can be criticised – it’s well screwed together and feels durable. Just a little on the drab side and some of the interior plastics don’t seem quite up to the standard of others.

3. Mechanical Excellence

Initially, petrol versions of the CX-5 were fitted with a 2.0-litre engine delivering 114kW of power. But after about a year, Mazda offered some variants with a bigger petrol alternative at 2.5 litres for 138kW to be a better match for a vehicle that was designed to be often loaded up with people and luggage.

The turbo-diesel variant, meanwhile, was a 2.2-litre unit, offering 129kW and loads of torque and was, instantly, the pick of the bunch, even if you had no option but to take all-wheel-drive.

4. Relentless Performance

An all-wheel drive 2.0-litre petrol automatic, putting out 113 kW at 6000 rpm and 198 Nm at 4000 revs, would be tentative off the mark and soon ran out of breath on all but the shallowest incline on mountainous surfaces. The solution was to flick the shift lever into manual mode, keep the revs up and change gear by hand – no chore under the circumstances, but we are not sure whether any typical owners will be willing to do this. Fuel consumption under these hilly conditions turrned out at 8.4 litres per 100 kilometres. Mazda claimed the combined urban/highway figure at 6.9 litres per 100 km. So the extra revs required to keep the pace up were obviously raising the consumption significantly.

There is a new suspension system, with front strut suspension and rear multi-link layout, which is light yet stiffer. There is a new steering system adjusting feedback according to speed and conditions. Even with all-wheel drive, the vehicle lapsed into understeer when it hustled on fast bends. This is no sporting SUV after all. Then again most owners are simply seeking a practical station wagon with a fair bit of style and it will certainly suit these people. Particularly we found the new Mazda CX-5 to have a fuss-free pleasant ride even on corrugated dirt roads.
