It's like they never read the comments. I've had my 22 Mazda 3 for a couple of years and I love the dial, I can get exacy where I need to, quickly, both with the Mazda system and Android Auto. I always see loads of comments making the same point. Sure, it's confusing if you're only spending a couple of hours with it, but within a week you'll be lightning quick.
I’ve owned my manual Mazda 3 since 2019 and dial is much easier to use than the touchscreen in my work Kia.
The dial is easy to use live with it the reporter is incorrect
You’re so right.
We bought the GT 2.5l non turbo. The next one down from this. $3500 cheaper. It saves $27 per tank compared to the turbo. Still has enough go too! The touchscreen can be turned on in the settings (at least the 2024 model can), not just for when you are parked either. You just have to agree to their warning. Wireless CarPlay and charging too.
I got the turbo akera.. Because 27 per tank is nothing compared to coming from my Holden V6 which had a bad drinking habit.. The engine uses 1/3 less fuel and because of the amazing torque the driving feel is comparable to throwing the commodore around. Very happy with it so far.
Excellent super reliable japanese car with classic feelings ❤❤❤
I love Mazda ❤
Solid vehicles, we have a 2016 2.5 and lovely to drive.
Got the top spec turbo 2023. Everything works as it should and drives great. I have zero issues with the infotainment system and control dial. You can also use voice commands for Google maps and Apple Music.
I got the turbo never goes over 10.5l awesome car
I’m a big convert to Mazda. 2024 Premium Turbo is fire! Funny he didn’t mention the Bose subwoofer in the boot.
Thanks for the good review - I’ve owned several Subarus but stopped when they introduced the flawed CVT concept - because I would never buy anything unless it was Japanese my choices have diminished over the last ten years to only Mazda & Toyota (avoid Nissan (Renault) / Mitsubishi) - yes there’s the Toyota ‘tax’ but Mazda has always demonstrated high quality, reliability and great value for money as Subaru once did - if I was looking at a well-built medium SUV with a conventional automatic transmission and AWD the CX5 would be no1 for my driveway next to the Hilux.
The dial is so much better to navigate the infotainment rather than reaching over and trying to swipe. It’s less distracting and works just as fast. Reviews bang on about the dislike for the dial when we who actually bought the CX-5 love it. The screen size is just good enough. Don’t need a desktop-looking screen.
I ❤ mazda
Outside need to redesign!
Towing hitch fitted with the exhaust manifold running across the rear of the. Vehicle. / extra cost ? I’m interested in the CX5 what is the drive away total cost ?
I just brought one.. managed to bargain down on unit sitting in the lot. Akera turbo with the mats and cargo tray, metallic pair option.. drive away 53k. I negotiate hard and prepare to walk away to another dealer further out of town. But phone ahead and see what they have at hand in the lot.
Inside is perfect need to redone outside
What happened to the full size spair wheel ? A real turn off for Australia
A full size wheel fits in it but it’s much heavier than the temp one that’s supplied.
It is touch screen for Apple car play and android auto but not when it is with Mazda connect system.
As dated as this car and design may be...they are still class-winning. There is nothing else in this class that looks as nice as the Mazda...both inside and outside. It's just got a classic simple uncluttered look and feel to it. The others all get it wrong...to some degree or other. With that being the case, sensible tweaking makes a lot of sense as opposed to a radical redesign.
the only reason why you buy this car is for the engine and driving dynamics, the last remaining turbo petrol that is affordable (relativity - unless you count the nnn events Tiguan or Skoda rubbish).
Digging into corners the car sends 60% of the power to the rear to slingshot you out of the corners , also when you accelerate quick from a stop it does NOT stay in front drive 60% power to the rear ....a little more research guys.
What kind of drink was she served?😢😩
The best part no New type Transmission std t speed top point that as it’s a turn off with the new type that are not able to be repaired
My car also has t speed😅
