2024 Mazda CX-5 Preferred - Watch This Video Before Buying That CR-V 

Truly appreciate the review! It’s always nice to see the “real” reviews as opposed to always seeing the top of the line models! 🎉

You can actually enable the touch screen when driving with apple car play and android auto in the preferred trim, just go to the main settings.

I just bought 2024 CX-5 Carbon Edition❤ Love it. Your Video is much informative and detailed than any of dealers I dealt with. Great Video!!!! Thanks!!!!!!

I literally cancelled my Honda appointment for CRV and ended up getting a Mazda CX 5 S preferred 2 weeks ago. After much research, it’s the better car for what I needed. I’m still discovering many features and testing it. So far really good experience and value for money.

1. We have a 2024 Mazda cx5 turbo preferred and the transmission does not shift slow - it shifts smooth which may seem slow because it is not jerky. For comparison, we also own a low milage Toyota Avalon, and our CX5 shifts much better - it is both faster and crisper while also very smooth. We have rented German dual clutch transmission cars and prefer the Mazda autos for smoothness (yes the DC transmission is faster for racing - but let's get real for everyday driving - smoother is better. BTW: the transmission on the review car does sound slow (very similar to the Avalon) - our 2024 cx5 turbo transmission is much faster/crisper. than your review sample...the learning point being drive the exact car you wish to purchase before you buy...not every transmission for any given model behaves exactly the same. 2. Hey guy, are you aware you are driving a Mazda with the smaller (17") rims and higher sidewall tires? - The 17" rim version absolutely does ride smoother/softer than the CX5 Turbo version's 19" rims...you are mixing apples and oranges when you quote differing driving impressions without clarifying if they are for the same set-up...the cx5s w/ 17" rims drive significantly softer than the cx5s w/ 19" but the 17" are less stable in hard cornering obviously. If you would drive both before you start reviewing you could better present and explain the difference...rather than quote other driving impressions out of context.

Fantastic job man! I’ve been watching various reviews trying to decide between this and another car and yours sold me on it. Helps that I’m right by chattily too!

Just bought the 2024 CX-5 in Eternal Blue Mica. Love it so far. Best review I've seen, thanks!

This is an excellent presentation, you are obviously well prepared for your reviews.

Very helpful videos you're putting out. Like the detailed features that you go over.

Your content is smack on, I've owned Mazda's for 23 years, they are a Drivers Car, Zoom Zoom, 1st was a 2000 Protege (349,000km), now its the 2019 CX3 in Soul Crystal Red, and I had the Dealer paint the steel wheels also Soul Crystal Red, for Free and it was a $700.00 cost for them. I get looks and comments allways. This spring the 2024 CX5 will be my next car and get the Painted wheels as well. Love Love my Mazda's.

Thank you! Super detailed review!!!

Just bought my 2024 CX-5 S Preferred Eternal Blue a month ago I Love it!, thanks for the information

Great video!!! Thanks for your thorough review and good luck on your journey to 100k, subscribed!

Excellent review! Very thorough and detailed. Thank you. Can you explain how to make changes to settings on infotainment center without engine running with push button start system? It's not like the traditional start system where you can turn switch left to accessary mode.

Just purchased this. Love it!!!!

Very thorough and informative! Thank you!

Good video, gave me a lot of information and was able to see what the car looks like all around, thanks

Looking to maybe buy this suv thank you for the very informative review

Best video of Preferred I've seen. Thanks!

Best review of this car yet. Didn't miss a thing. Thank you

This is equivalent to an EXL CRV . That car is close to 40,000!!! At 32,500 this is a bargain. The only advantage of the CRV is the better room overall but with a CVT/Turbo. I will gladly save the 6-7 thousand! Really great review. Hope you reach the 100,000 views. You deserve it !!!

Super thorough, really helped my decision making process

Nice work !!! Thank you 🙏

Awesome review. You get right to the point. Pretty much sealed my decision!

Great info.: much appreciated.

I test drove this model of the Mazda drives really nice n thinking about getting one in six months and great review of this Mazda

My aunt has 2022 CX-5. Very good SUV. Great review as always. Greetings

You are excellent - one of the few reviewers who mention that for the first time in 2024 the screen is touch screen for Android Auto and Apple Carplay. Note you get the car that it only works if you are stationary, but if you go into the screen settings it can be touchscreen for both when you are moving as well. Thanks for the excellent review!

Thanks, very helpful.

You can put the back seats flat..just take off headrest wit a click and slide. Love the cx-5...this is my second one. Drives smooth handles turns great...thank you!

Great review. Just read that the Mazda CX-5's have great finance offers this month! Very tempted!

Now my 1st new Mazda CX-5 SUV to afford.

You should do a review of the 2024 CX-5 Carbon Edition. I think that is the sweet spot of trim level and features for the CX-5. Basically a Preferred Plus with unique body color and black wheels and you get a choice between red interior or black with red stitching. PS: You can go into settings to allow touchscreen while driving. It’s turned off by default.

A great vehicle for the price. Just bought my 5th Mazda and you can’t beat the made in Japan Quality.

Great review

Very informative video

Love my 2024 CX5 PP 😊

Also you can change the screen to touch by going through the settings, starting in 2024 models. Its kind of hard to find where but p sure u can

Stop mode just holds the revs higher, I have a 2020 GT NA 2.5 and it’s great for in town

Very good review

Great video

Really nice cx-5 design and beautiful exterior too. I want to buy cx-5 carbon edition needs white exterior

I felt the same about CVT and didn't like it. When I changed cars I went to a normal auto and was glad to do so. However just updated again and went to a CVT to get the SUV I thought would be the best. Surprisingly I just love the CVT. It has been brilliant for city use and no issue on the highway. Only question I have is longevity, but I'll probably be out of the vehicle before it is a problem (if).

I have this car and I love it. This was a great review. Concerning the drive and the speed, I feel that I can start speeding very quickly and without noticing. At first, it takes a second to kick in, but it is smooth and pretty good when it comes to the ease of driving. I really enjoy my car.

I got a 2023 premium turbo in silver. I feel like a millionaire 😎

Good review, you have gone to great lengths to explain every aspect of the car!

awesome video

Hello! I’m trying to get one..since this is going to be my first car. How much should I offer at the dealership? Thanks

Is there a difference in seat cushion, leather between signature and ignite(carbon edition) ?

Love your reviews your the best

Everything but the interior lightning is LED. I had a 2022 model and it was hit 2x. If you get get a Mazda don’t get the grey even thought it’s stunning but seems no one can see it especially that the lower trims don’t have fully lit rear lights

I'm torn between this model/trim vs. the CX-50 in the same trim. I like the looks of the CX-50 better and seem to have better interior space. But, trim for trim, the CX-5 offers more while costing less. Leather interior (better interior materials), sunroof (not a deal breaker), quiter interior (dual pane windows and windshield), the more "preffered" rear suspension set-up. It will probably come down to the test drive. Which one i prefer more the luxurious ride or the sportier and off-roady feel.

Been contemplating between this CX 5 trim or a Mazda 3 Premium for the manual transmission for longevity

I bought it today but the dealership charged me 1950 additional for pre-inspections, complimentary service and something else. But they said only the 2 first services are free. I got at least 0% APR for 60 months.

Looks nice and has auto. Like your educational video. Peace.

The ground clearance difference is due to different wheel and tire size.

I love my CX5 2023 Preferred🤠

Early and I will buy a new 2024 Mazda CX-5.

I got a 2024 CX-5 in December. Love it. Granted I'm coming from a 2010 Ford Fusion that served me well. Mazda makes a great car with so much for a great price.

I love my mazda cx5 ce!! Anyway the guy is so handaome

Just test drove this Mazda, and all who have found the steering to be heavily weighted to steer. I have found the perfect solution, turn off the Traction Control 🚙🏎. Using one finger you can now make tight turns with ease.

I'm thinking of leasing one.

The only drawback is that the seats are not padded enough. They just aren’t comfortable for drives longer than 30 minutes.

No fog lights?

Wireless Aauto/Acarplay can be crapy, I prefère wired. Plus it charges your phone😁

The problem is the fuel economy compared to competitors

Does this have cylinder deactivation???

Muito boa explicação 👏🏻👏🏻

This or the forester premium in your opinion?

Great

Does it come with remote start ?

What is ridiculous is NO SIRIUS XM. You have to spend $3000 more just to get it. Should be standard on ALL models.

Have the 2024 premium plus turbo……… zero buyers remorse thus far

Real world MPG?

What a shame they put istop on this. Used to be a great car

cx5 will be discontinued sooner than later. It's the only cx- single digit model to still be in mazdas lineup. it's also down 30% from previous years. It's only popular in the US.

that 2.5na is too slow its almost dangerous slow

DO NOT buy this car! I bought one and the transmission went out a year later. The transmission is backordered until June 2024, which will be 8 months total, I will be without a vehicle. I will NEVER buy another Mazda.

The CX 5 is so outdated for 2024 I won’t get it ever again and can’t wait for its redesign in 2025 I hope

😈❤️😈
