I drove Toyotas all my life decided to switch it up and get a certified pre owned ’21 CX5 I will say the CX5 has probably been one of the best vehicles I’ve ever had!

As an owner of a 2022 CX-5 Signature, I can see the 2025 Signature is virtually unchanged. Suggestions: I would like to see a broader selection of interior colors (the Nappa brown feels great but is very difficult to keep clean…especially sunscreen! ), improved tech/navigation (as you mention here), and improved key fob ( current one feels sub-premium). Overall, however I agree this is an excellent vehicle.

Thanks, for the review of the 2025 CX-5 Signature. We're a Mazda CX-5 Signature family. I drive a 2019 soul red model and my wife has a 2024 eternal blue model she bought in July 2024. She traded in her 2015 CX-5 Grand Touring for it. I've been very happy with mine it now has over 86,000 miles. We both prefer it over the CX-50 and prefer several design features, such as the 40/20/40 rear seats, fully independent rear suspension, build quality and cheaper pricing over the CX-50. Basically the ONLY thing I would love to change is that dark brown leather is TOO DARK!. It's almost black. It would be more attractive and luxurious if it was a lighter brown or saddle or terra cotta!! Overall it competes very well against cars like Lexus, costing $10-15,000 more. Thanks, for the great videos. BTW, we lived in Lexington, KY from 1995-1999. Beautiful city in the heart of the beautiful Bluegrass country!! I'm interested in seeing the next generation hybrid CX-5 when it comes out.
That’s the exact spec and trim I want! And here in the Philippines, we get 3 trims and the top trim here is the 2.5L Turbo or the Signature you have there in the US. But sadly, all trims have the same old 8” infotainment. But I think the newly refreshed trims to arrive next year will have the standard 10” screens. Great review of this and I love it! God Bless, always!!!😊
For the Philippines (as of September 2024), we have three variants - 2.0 FWD Sport - 2.5 AWD Sport - 2.5 Turbo AWD TOTL Our naturally-aspirated variants are made in Malaysia........while our Turbo variant is imported from Japan.
One note: I just purchased a 2025 CX 5 Select and it does not have auto stop and does not have Cylinder Deactivation. This was my preference also, since I wanted neither. I've heard that some of the Selects will have auto stop and CD and some won't. You might want to check and report on that.
@CarConfections, you guys should review the updated 2025 CX-5 Carbon Turbo which now has the 360° camera system & front & rear parking sensors from the Signature trim. That's the best value of the turbo trims
I now owned the Mazda CX - 5 turbo signature, my only two cons about the car are: the two position memory seat for two occupants doesn’t change the side mirror setting it’s either gonna be set for my wife or I’ll have to change it for myself and she has to go through the trouble of changing it back, other issue that the vehicle can only be connected to one cell phone especially with the remote start. Hopefully this can be corrected by a software update firmware update whatever you wanna call it. Other than that, we love the car. It’s primary my wife’s the vehicle, but it would be nice. I can jump into it and do what I need to do.
As a Florida resident who doesn't need nor want AWD, I don't consider any vehicle that forces AWD on me, which seems to be an increasing number of CUVs nowadays. There are many important reasons to avoid having AWD when you don't need it: 1) You have to replace all 4 tires at once, so it's a huge waste of money if you have one bad tire or only need to replace a pair of worn tires. 2) You have to perform AWD differential maintenance. 3) Fuel economy is usually a worse because of the parasitic mechanical drag and added weight of AWD components, which can and do fail later down the road. So unless one truly needs AWD, it's an unnecessary drain on the wallet. Considering there are nice FWD competitors out there for less money, the CX5 isn't a CUV I'd consider. It does look nice though.
I have the 2024 signature. A big reason why I went with the signature is because of the 360 camera. I'm a bit annoyed now that it is available on the premium plus, bec that's the trim that I ideally wanted. I like the blacked out rims, molding, and mirror caps better
I just bought 2025 premium plus last month and I 50% thought should have pushed getting turbo signature. But oh well maybe 3 years from now I will trade it in
This CX5 is fairly nice, better than most in the class. It still has fresh styling but it’s age it’s definitely showing in some areas where the CX-50 enhances. Though I will say if technology and having the most room isn’t a major setback for most people it just maybe the best overall vehicle in the segment. Though if it were up to me, I would get a CX-50, I believe it looks a lot better than this and I do prefer the terracotta seats that’s on the 50 as well. This interior is just to dark for my liking.
The interior being too dark is a Mazda staple. Their vehicles come with an all-black interior as standard without any choice without paying more for upgraded leather upholstery, which I don't like, Even then, it's still an all-black interior with colored upholstery. Ick.
Loved my Mazda 3 GT Hatchback. Had it for 10 years. I would happily go back to Mazda, and a CX-5...if they updated the display size, position, and UI/UX. I can't stand the current design language of screens just stuck upright in the dash. Maybe it's just me. I would prefer it if they would integrate the screen into the dash, like Jeep (my current brand). Much safer/easier to reach/use when integrated, IMO. Excellent review, fellas!!
Great review guys. Really like the style of the CX-5 and I'm VERY happy that Mazda is NOT using a CVT transmission in this compact segment. Could have used an extra gear or two but it is what it is. For someone like me who's been driving since I could reach the pedals, CVT transmissions are so unenjoyable. I'm currently stuck with one but not for long😁. Hope you do a review of the CX-70 with the 280hp Turbo Inline 6. Trying to decide between this Signature CX-5 and the CX-70 non-S trim. Love your reviews. Thanks fellas. 👍
I've got a hankering for a Mazda. Really like the CX5 design and that silver gray color adds some elegance in my opinion. Glad you pointed out the trend by many other car brands shying away from horsepower for vehicles in this class. That to me has been very disappointing. I would like to see Mazda bump up the power in the CX5 even more and possibly build their engine with some flexibility so that if you choose to use Premium Fuel you'll get the max power output. Guys I have one bit of feedback and that is if you could go through the Normal and Sport Modes, if so equipped, when doing your Driving Impression segment for these vehicles. I would love to hear your driver feedback when switching between those modes. Oh, and a bit more exterior B-Roll for those of us who enjoy a little eye candy with some of these well-designed models. I always appreciate your reviews and didn't realize I wasn't subscribed. I am now. Keep up the great work.
Thanks to both of you for doing all the reviews. You do an excellent job. I like the consistency that I know what you would be covering. Could you tell me if the mpg is rated for using regular gas and not premium
Still a great near-luxury value if fuel economy isn’t vital for you…except they need a lighter interior color option for the Signature. That alone is a deal-breaker for me. After settling on a dark interior for a previous car, I have vowed to never settle for driving around in a coal pit again!
@@2004cyrus Great choice! I have the 2021 CX 9 Signature with the quilted white leather…the luxury feel just POPS! And the Soul Red exterior is exquisite as well. Every time I look at my car, inside and out, it makes me happy! Just about as nice as a Lexus RX for 15K less and it drives better! But when my wife tires of her 2007 Lexus RX 350, we’ll be looking at something smaller for our 2d vehicle….
It's a great vehicle and fun to drive. Mazda should be very careful in redesigning the body style. Its really perfect just the way it is. A 2.5 liter with a six speed auto and made in Japan.
I’ve been looking at the ‘25 CX-5 PP and test drove it. I don’t like that jerky feeling the CD brings. I read on Reddit that the 8th letter on the VIN determines whether you have CD and iStop. Is this true? And why were the lights on the odometer flashing. I’m so new to the SUV fam. 😊
I have a 2024 CX5 Signature. I like it but considering a BMW X1 or 2. The only thing stopping me is the infotainment touch screen, I don't like it. After driving the BMW and getting into my CX 5 to drive away I have no doubt that the BMW is a superior vehicle although the start/stop in the BMW is a concern which my Mazda does not have....Anyone have thoughts?
There is an option under the Bluetooth device section of the and entertainment system to allow the user to always use the touchscreen and CarPlay or android auto. This is available on all models starting from 2024.
My wife has the Mazda CX-5 touring 2022,it is a nice car,but I prefer driving my Kia Sportage 2022, is quicker and it's way more comfortable, I am sure the Mazda is a more refined car,but the Sportage has a better driving experience for me.
2016 CX-5 GS fwd in blue with 150,000 kms. When it dies I’m hoping the CX5 will have the hybrid option available as it fits perfectly in my underground parking spot and I love the thing. Been an amazing and super reliable suv. If it never gets the hybrid option, I would consider the CX-50 hybrid. Also, it’s a better buy than the Americans and it won’t be stolen like the other Japanese ones, like the CRV which is a big stolen one here in Canada. Also Start/Stop is not available on the base GX and GS trims here in Canada, only on the Kuro and GT non turbo option trims and not available on the 2.5 turbo.
I love this car my wife has a 2023 cx5 carbon edition. Although I don’t think people realize how luxurious it is. It has some features my Lexus doesn’t have. BUT I hope Mazda changes the style soon. It’s a little long in the tooth in my opinion
@azizkizbayev439 The CX-9 was the largest CX of the Initial series. Three rows of seating as I recall. The CX-90, repeat 90, is back with an inline six-cylinder engine.
i still thing the 2017-2021 model looks better then the newer facelift .. like the front lights better then the new one en how the chrome kinda goes in the lense
@@2004cyrus but like thats cuz some people prefer the old school design where you can see the check engine light. I dont but then they can add digital gauge as an option cant they? Or atleast the signature model.
It's incredible that Mazda has NOT changed the body style OR the interior of this car since 2017!!! That is NINE model years with the same body style! I can't think of any other car company that goes this long without body changes to its vehicles. The CX-5 is already tired and boring! It certainly needs a significant refresh to make it exciting again. You're hearing this, Mazda????
Mazda is ok for their reliability.. but for example tire pressure.. if you have some problem there you actually don't have information what tire has issue, what pressure is there, etc.. it is catastrofic feelings when you are driving and just have information about this issue but don't know what exactly is going on..
Mazda still sells new vehicles without navigation SD card. That is extra charge, and so are the updates. What a slap in the face... I also hate Daylight Running Lights. Why ? They are not mandatory in the USA. Don't install them by default.
Dear Lord the CX-5 desperately needs a redesign. It's a fantastic option, but terribly behind. 6 speed is ancient. Gas tank is small and so is rear leg space and storage. Needs hybrid and more efficient transmission
I don’t want a crappy hybrid. I already have a new Camry with hibread. And we all love the 6-speed transmission. It’s bullet proof and doesn’t “hunt.” I’ve had many of these. All flawless and reliable. People complain about trucks and cars with more gears.
Between the Toyota RAV4 and Mazda CX5 is coin toss up. Both are super reliable, bulletproof and economical vehicles. Nissan, Honda and rest of the domestic brands needs to wake up or they are going to close their doors. This segment is the hottest segment in the industry. As for Hyundai and KIA…these two are just pure disastrous brands.

Excellent review as per usual!! One oversight is that you can’t use the heated seats or USB ports if you have 5 people on board.
You could, just have them lean forward to turn it on. But yes dumb design
The chances of anyone trying to stuff 3 people in that back seat are exceedingly rare.

As much as I love the CX5, i find it dated. They're due for a redesign. Facelift/resfresh isn't enough
I have cx 50 because of design
if it broke don’t fix it!
WHats your height 🤔 my dad is 5'10 & uses a walker , I wonder if he would fit
What is traffic jam assist?
Mazda 🔥 is the definition of premium vehicles not Jeep 😂😂😂 !
Good handling.
I hope they bring back the cx 9!
Cx90?????
@azizkizbayev439 The CX-9 was the largest CX of the Initial series. Three rows of seating as I recall. The CX-90, repeat 90, is back with an inline six-cylinder engine.
@@WilliamMurphy-b6v he hopes that cx-9 makes a come back. Cx90 is the next gen with a 3 row . I repeat as well
When will we ever see an 8 speed transmission?
i still thing the 2017-2021 model looks better then the newer facelift .. like the front lights better then the new one en how the chrome kinda goes in the lense
U decide to get cx5 or crv
The last time I rented a car (Nissan Rouge) I was disappointed with the USB Options. They only had USB C outlets. What does this have?
CX5 needs a facelift please
pano sunroof
inline 4
hybrid system
I love this car
I like everything about this car except the infotainment screen. It is too small - or at least too small for me.
I take a shot every time they say elements.
Still think this is a great value vehicle!
It is and i have a base trim select
Spot the difference with my 23 model 🧐 The grill pattern, that’s all.
Wrong, wireless car play and touch screen ability and USB c ports
No fog Lights either on yours?
@@Striker50_I have wireless CarPlay.
They should add a full digital gauge cluster
Not everyone wants that. I have 2 and I don’t want it. I have a new Camry with full digital and it’s annoying.
@@2004cyrus but like thats cuz some people prefer the old school design where you can see the check engine light. I dont but then they can add digital gauge as an option cant they? Or atleast the signature model.
I own a ‘16 GT. Been waiting on a pano roof. I’m done waiting.
I got a pano roof in my new 2025 Camry and I don’t really care about it now. You probably know the CX-50 has the panoramic roof
May I know where is the Foglight’s
No foglights
Nothing new on the 2025. Just, buy a second hand CX5 2021 above at a cheaper price, and cost savings.
It's incredible that Mazda has NOT changed the body style OR the interior of this car since 2017!!! That is NINE model years with the same body style! I can't think of any other car company that goes this long without body changes to its vehicles. The CX-5 is already tired and boring! It certainly needs a significant refresh to make it exciting again. You're hearing this, Mazda????
Same w/Nissan Murano. 2024 still has a CD player. Luxury interior w/ power tilt/telescope. Will lose V6 engine in 2025...
Josh’s fingers at the back looked scary 🤪
Where’s that signature Mazda seatbelt chime? Also screw that radio, someone needs to tell Mazda it’s not 2015 anymore
What’s wrong with the stereo? It’s a Bose
@@2004cyrus not the sound system itself, the infotainment system screen
@@mattdudenothing wrong with it, plug your phone in , push knob to the right and it becomes touchscreen with car play , can’t make it any easier lol
Mazda is ok for their reliability.. but for example tire pressure.. if you have some problem there you actually don't have information what tire has issue, what pressure is there, etc.. it is catastrofic feelings when you are driving and just have information about this issue but don't know what exactly is going on..
Use your eyes and hands, you will know which tire is going bad.
@@alvinsimba734 you can say the same about all the systems that helps drivers to drive.. what a stupid comment you provided
@@alvinsimba734 you can apply your advice probably to all features of new cars 😂
Mazda still sells new vehicles without navigation SD card. That is extra charge, and so are the updates. What a slap in the face... I also hate Daylight Running Lights. Why ? They are not mandatory in the USA. Don't install them by default.
The hand at 16:52 scared me lol
😂 Josh was riding along in the backseat on this one
The model that should have gotten a hybrid trim!
It will. Stay tuned for be on the lookout mid 2025....announcement will be made.
much better than CX-50 in terms of every aspect!
Dear Lord the CX-5 desperately needs a redesign.
It's a fantastic option, but terribly behind.
6 speed is ancient.
Gas tank is small and so is rear leg space and storage.
Needs hybrid and more efficient transmission
I don’t want a crappy hybrid. I already have a new Camry with hibread. And we all love the 6-speed transmission. It’s bullet proof and doesn’t “hunt.” I’ve had many of these. All flawless and reliable. People complain about trucks and cars with more gears.
Yeah, what should they go to, a cvt like all the other junk out there? Maybe go to 8 speed for better epa, but I like the 6 3:36
@@maxxbenzz7842 CVT? Gross

@@JustYoujin yes I have a new 2025 Toyota Camry Hibread. I don’t like it.

This model is definitely long in the tooth.
We all still love it. I just bought a 3rd one for my better half.

mazda please its been 9 years update the poor cx 5
Whenever they say timeless, you know they mean dated.
This still looks amazing. I have 2
@@2004cyrus do u need a cookie :/ lol

Seeing the same design for 7 years now and carried over to next year gives me nausea.
This car is a cheap Volvo XC 40. My 40 looks exactly like this 5. I had both cars
The design looks like a mean transformer , not appealing to me, inside different story

Between the Toyota RAV4 and Mazda CX5 is coin toss up. Both are super reliable, bulletproof and economical vehicles.
Nissan, Honda and rest of the domestic brands needs to wake up or they are going to close their doors. This segment is the hottest segment in the industry. As for Hyundai and KIA…these two are just pure disastrous brands.
