I personally prefer driving the 2016 model, something about feels more naturally sporty. It is one of the few cars that you can hop into and not have to adjust to it's driving dynamics, it responds to steering input exactly the way you'd expect.
I agree, I have a 2016 model and I love it!
Have had mine for 5 years and still love it
This is an old comment but in case anyone stubles apon this. I've been working at enterprise rent a car for years and seen the models the last 5 years being in 2021 now. I personally own a 2015 cx5 and prefer it to the newer ones. The way the seats feel, the way it drives, the simpler screen set up. Omg don't get me started on mazdas new display design and that dumb knob system. But the newer mazdas try to be too new and cool and miss out on what people enjoyed about them.
@@5310yryr Just bought a 2014 model and am glad I don't have the copy if the BMW iDrive system. Has to make it easier to replace the stereo. 😅
I agree with you completely. I used to be a lot attend and drove a lot of cars up to about 2022 while I was in school and the 2016 I own does feel faster and sportier than the other years I have driven. I noticed the 16 model year is rated to get its hp @5700rpm and torque @3250 which are very low and impressive numbers for n/a regular 87 gas especially. Whereas the following years are @6000 and @4000 respectively. Might be part of the reason but just a guess. How many miles do you have? I always am curious to hear other owners! I’m at 107k currently
you know you're old when you look at entry class level crossovers trying to race after turning in your actual sports car for one of these family vehicles..
I prefer the looks of the newer CX5 but the wheels of the older one have better looking design.👍
Lighter is faster.
Now what do we take away from this,...maybe that Mazda's get better with age?
Either way they are good and reliable cars,...it would appear.
I can tell you my Mazda3 fell stronger now at 43k km than it felt the first 10K, it has no trouble getting up to 126mph (203kmh) and that wasn't even top speed, I just did not dare to go any faster... I think it could easily beat 130 (over 210kmh)
My thought/comment is proved!
Cheers, Andres.
Andres Salazar Same here. Felt my 3 more punchier at 51,000 miles compared to when it was 500 miles. Do you know what the reason is? lol
well, that's usually normal with most engines, they are not at their best with low miles, there's the run-in period, but specially with skyactiv I believe the way they designed these engines, with the lower friction and lighter components, they might wear at a slower pace than the non skyactiv ones, if the theory is right, a well maintained skyactiv engine should last very long. Most modern cars, the engine is one of the most if not the most durable part, they should easily outlast their transmissions, I do wonder how many miles the earlier (2012?) skyactiv engines have now.
What we get: less weight same power is faster than more weight same power
Duh?
woot woot, glad I got the 2016.5 titanium CX-5, I do like the newer model also but 150lbs less makes a difference.
Had that 2015 Mazda CX-5 felt like it was a turbo man now I gotta 18 and I love it even more
The music the whole time isnt my faverite thing
Definitely keeping my 2014 Grand Touring. Looks way better than the newer one anyways.
Imaging comparing it with an suv
Try de Cx-5 Signature 2.5 turbo.
Smack me around and call me stupid, well, that's what I'm, I'm married lol hahhahahaha. So true.
Both on same drive mode? Normal/Sport mode?
I'm a 567lbs. Which car can best handle my girth?
When the new 2010 Mazda motors become an option the CX-5 will be epic for this price.
That's an interesting comparison. Thanks for sharing!
i love my 2016 its so cute n fun to drive
Made me love my car even. Ore inhave that old 2016 cx-5.😁
Old is Gold
I have the 2018 and I'm in the works of murdering it. The 2018 is just so much more sleeker and mean looking. Can't wait to plasti dip the emblems on friday.
I got a '17 stick shift. Just got some 2" lowering springs.... Itll look mean as heck
@@3therspark63…Wait what.? Where’d you find a manual transmission for the 17? I sure would like to know.
@@jonnjonnzz0111 it was sold in Canada only for the 17 year. I consider myself quite lucky!
@@3therspark63 ...Yeah man good find for you! I think I am gonna search for one in Canada and hopefully I'll be able to find one that I like in a manual transmission and somehow have it shipped to the States.
The old guy didn’t bother telling how big the engins is in the red car
I do not like the music at all but love the drag race it’s self
Love the Rush shirt....the wheels on the 2018...not so much
Did you both use manual shifting?
I have a 23 Carbon and my 16 Sport was faster. 17 inch Yokohama’s are way better than. 19 Toyos as well. Toyo’s are not sporty. Can’t wait to get Pilot Soort AS.
Sir your 2016 is diesel?
Nathan with the RUSH shirt!
This video would have been better if it was cut to 30seconds.
You shoulda gotten signature that shit come with a turbo
The older one gets better mpg too!
Nice ride.
Why didn't you swap cars?
What was the mileage’s on these Mazda’s... like Nathan mentioned, the ‘16 was broken in...
Hi Thomas,
The 2018 CX-5 was at around 2,500 miles, while the 2016 CX-5 has 44,000 miles on the clock.
There isn't going to be that much of a difference.
Break in is 500 miles for the CX-5
2016 diesel?
which car without Rathan that will go faster!
2017/2018 is heavier. Case closed
And newer, remember engines new a few thousand miles to get better, anyway I doubt the average drive would ever notice the difference...it can't be more that 2 or 3 tenths of a second
That car has maybe one bean. Mazda needs to get with it, American's want more horsepower.
P Rex because we are fat Americans!
We just get addicted to power, weren't cars in the 80s slow as hell, heck, this CX-5 are faster some sporty 80s and 90s hatchbacks
Andres Salazar Go to a sports car if you want power.
I would have to think that my wife's 2010 Mazda cx9 would be quicker than the new 4 cylinder version. Too bad it only gets 16 mpg.
Brad Conklin yes, it gets half of what these cars get. My wife’s 2016 cx5 averages 30mpg in mixed driving. The old cx9 has a Ford boat anchor for an engine, an old school motor with none of Skyactiv’s efficiency tricks.
Crv vs cx5 pls
To be honest 2016 looks better
Lmao you're joking right ? I get more compliments for my 2019 over the 2016.
I have a brand new 2019 CX-5, got it with only 3 miles on the odometer. The car has no power until about 500 miles on the odometer, and today I have 1680 miles slightly broken in and the car feels way more powerful. I believe the ECU limits power output until around 600 miles (1000KM), as the manual suggest to drive it gently until then. Your test is not valid. You need to test a broken in 2018 vs the broken in 2016. I can tell my 2019 CX-5 is way more powerful now than when it has less than 500 miles.
Who cares which was faster in the US...Those new generation Mazda cars are meant to be powered by their great diesel engines, which Americans will never have.
would rather have new Masda6 wagon tbh
JogBird me too! It's so sexy!
Wow
Red CX-5 only had 2554 miles on the odometer. The blue CX-5 has 44,046 on the odometer . Now clearly one is broken in fully and the other isn't. 🙄🙄🙄
Sport mode isn't even on.
old one will win!
The 2016 isn't that old, they should have used a CX-7...
Sport??!
No sport mode
The 2018 model has a different final drive ratio. 4,325 (2016) vs 4,624 (2018). I think there is the problem.
It is not a reliable test. You have to test the real power before. Not all vehicles comes out with the exact specs as stated. In this case maybe the new one was 175hp and the old 190hp...
As a CX-5 owner: Gen 1 > Gen 2
brego129 have you always been a Mazda fan? Or was this your first? How long have you owned the CX-5 and would you buy it again?
Monique Sondag I own a 2019 the 2.5t version and can definitely say it’s the most fun and sporty crossover I’ve ever driven
Que huevas ni siquiera le ponen el modo sport
Xe 2018 tăng tốc từ 0 thua xe 2016 ah. Kì cục nhỉ
Tuan hoang nó nặng hơn 30-40kg vì tăng vật liệu cách âm nên thua là đúng máy giống nhau. Nhưng hậu dài 2018 sẽ ăn vì nhiều hơn 3 mã lực
It is not the vehicle it is you are heavier than junior
They both are very slow, who cares which is slower.
6000 rpm redline? Wtf is this a diesel?
Wer hat Mazda entwickelt 😡
Mazda baut richtig gut, nie mehr D😅eutsches Auto
Pointless.
toyotas last lonf like 200,000+ miles. meanwhile i dont think mazda would last as long as a rav4.
I blame the Rust....the 2016 has so much rust that it actually ate away the metal making it lighter. ;)
Crap cars with crap transmissions.
Rav4 v6 will smoke both these Mazda cx5...hahahahhaa
Nothing new... you are comparing a V6 engine V/S a 4 cyl...
Why didn't they use sport mode in either? It makes a huge difference in passing power and throttle response.
I'm surprised that they didn't even try sport mode on.
They don't know about this option
I like how he emphasizes how the 2016 is "old".
Yup i just got a 16 mazda 3 and it feels so new to me i still considered my 08 Silverado modern
My 2013 model feels new still.
We need a driver change if these are going to be the least little bit scientific.
That blue is amazing
I had a 2014 2.5. It actually felt faster at 40,000 miles when I traded it in on a 2017 as opposed to when it was new. My 2017 feels slower. Give it time..
Still slower loo
I like the mags on the older more.
The 2018 looks more sleek. I love sleek looking cars.
How does Nathan lose every drag race!
He just easily beat two other vehicles Saturday in a new Expedition. He doesn’t always lose
He's not lightweight enough.
I have a 2016 gt and it needs a turbo desperately. It needs balls
I guess I'll keep my 2014 model then. Good to know
I have a 2015 model and I feel the same way lol
2012 hear trading in for a 2016 soon, millage getting high @ 178000km
It’s because they added more sound proofing to the newer model making it a heavier vehicle
Turbo model will take the win now
Race a turbo version now lmaoo
man that 2016 was pulling hard lol.
The 2016 is sportier and handles better, with more steering feel.
I don’t care what anyone says, the 2016 is better looking
Jacob shreve Agree with you, the 2018 front/bonnet looks like a sedan not suv.
true!!!
Jacob shreve i think so
i think the front end of the 18 looks more High end .. maybe it doesnt look like a SUV. but if looking like a suv means blending in , then i see why they changed it..
no way too much plastic and the 18 looks BMW ish
I have the 2018 and I'm not surprised. The older one is smaller, lighter, and more aerodynamic and not to mention the AWD version of these cars are heavier than the Front Wheel Drive version. The CX-5 should be a minimum of 200 hp and hopefully Mazda will go that direction and add Turbo.
but with the 184/187 hp they have, the difference in 150lbs makes up for about 10 of that, and difference in driver weight could make up the equivalent of another few hp. the weight difference here is probably equivalent to a 200hp car vs the 184/187. amazing how some morbidly obese people will pay hundreds or even thousands in fake mods that supposedly will gain a few hp on a dyno when they could just exercise and eat right and get the equivalent of the same gains while probably extending their life expectancy and saving money on mods and healthcare.
Mazda management indicated that the CX-5 will never get a turbo in it because Mazda is scare that doing so may take buyers from the CX-9!
I'll keep my 155hp manual cx5. Sure it's slow, but I'm not doing 0-60 drag racing. I'm doing 0-retirement and getting 35MPG reduces my time to retirement.
coelho sports very good point
HW2800 if that's their belief... They have to at least up the horse power to 205.
Always making cool comparisons. LoL. Get to the Buick Tour X !!!! LoL
Come for the turbo models. I'm disappointed
Maybe because the weight , the new model is more heavier than the old model
Next time try sport mode. I'm assuming it's has the same features as my 2017 gt
Although 16 has less power, but the car is lighter and so is the driver 😛🤣.
2.5 ? Defenitly it s in USA ...
Race caller: I got the obs by a bus length...
I have a 2016.5 cx5 GT and even people with the new cx5 tell me my car looks better, so thanks but I’m keeping my 2016
this is probably not very important but im still glad yall did it
great :D next mazda 6 2017 2,5 l vs 2018 l 2,5 l turbo to see the new engine
What did I say!?
Put the old wheels on the new car
Love the sound effects lol 😂
I think the newer one is just heaver
its lighter
That's exactly it lol
This is like watching two homeless people fighting!
Petrol ,diesel?
