You nailed it with the 2.5 NA preference. Fuel consumption never bothered me, while I got to enjoy buttery smooth acceleration though sans turbo. Just got some heartache when I pay the annual roadtax.
Good insight as usual. Request for a review of the 2024 forester gt update. Since it is on a massive rebate now, it kind of playing around the ballpark with then cx5
2:48 - whilst listening I laughed out loud and felt pity for those who did buy a lower variant and was trying to impress others. Exactly the words 'they' don't want others to know. Great script!
Mazda Malaysia better launch the latest update like taiwan with new grille design and 10.25inch screen to boost the sales before the rationalisation of petrol subsidy and new generation of cx-5 being announced
Screen is already 10.25-inch, and sales traffic for the CX-5 suggests there's no need to update this model anytime soon. We would get into the matter of amortisation & scale but it's Friday night and we have better things to do.
Hi bro, how would you rate this car against Subaru Forester 2.0? Both have similar outputs but Subaru (with rebates) is about RM25K cheaper. To me, when I compared both, the Subaru Forester seems like a no brainer given the huge price difference. Subaru Forester i-L goes for RM142K with 6 years free service while the CX-5 2.0 High is going for RM168K with 5 yrs free service
You lose a lot of credibility by recommending the 2.2D even though Mazda salesman will tell you to stay away. The engine since previous model is almost guaranteed to leak coolant. Reliability wise is zero.
When vehicles go through rear-end collisions and do not get repaired properly as the CX-5 customer admitted when queried by BERMAZ, that tends to happen.
