Great to hear about CX-50 changes. One more please - an 18” wheel/tire package for top line turbo models, silver with highway all seasons (not off-road). The 20’s are pretty, but not really needed for handling, and they ruin the ride on the crappy roads around here.

Picked up a November build 2024 CX50 Premium Plus a couple weeks ago and IMO and for my needs the steering, braking, and suspension is spot on, so the tweaks absolutely hit the target. Steering feels great and the ride is connected but not harsh at all. I’m so glad it’s not a floaty cushion like some of the complainers seem to want. I don’t find the seats too hard and neither does my wife, and in fact we love how they feel. I do wish the seatbelt chime could be delayed a bit until the car is put in D, and man, do I wish a hybrid had been available. I think that hybrid thing is Dave's "secret stuff". Otherwise we absolutely love the CX50.

Dave, hopefully you can address the concerns of a number of reviewers regarding the CX-90 (& CX-70) - smooth out the jerkiness of the drivetrain at low speeds, soften up the seat bottoms, speed up the steering (fewer turns lock-to-lock) and make the center console between driver and front passenger deeper (yes, I know, there's a transmission down there, but, please fix this if at all possible.) Otherwise I'm ready to buy one of the two. Oh wait - please make a bench 2nd-row available in the top trim! This should be a piece of cake, and it's honestly the only thing holding me back since I have a family of 5 and want to put all 3 kids in the 2nd row. Please, to me this is the most important thing and should be a cinch to do.

A 50 is intriguing now that I hear the details on off road suspension tuning considering the roads here are basically like driving off road anyway.

Just pulled the trigger on a CX-50 Premium. I love the ride. Next time you see David, I found a software bug. You can add a station to your favorites multiple times. I accidentally added the same station four times. Ideally you should only be allowed to do once. Also thought holding fav button would unfavorite it but deleting is in another screen. Holding the fav button to unfavorite a station seems intuitive to me considering you use it to add.

@alexferrara9287 28 дней назад

Ok, I think I can speak for everyone when I say the CX-50 is an awesome new model but, could use a few changes or additional options. Here’s a short list… 1. Offer the 2.5NA, 2.5T Hybrid (make the 2.5 turbo version a hybrid for more power/fuel efficiency), & I6 (either NA or Turbo). 2. Make the multilink suspension or a form of independent suspension standard. That said, have it tuned stiff like the current one, it’s a thing of beauty. 3. Modify the auto 6 Speed Transmission to an 8 Speed w/ quicker shifts. Or at least shorten the shifts on the 6 Speed. There’s no reason why the CX-5/CX-50 aren’t in the 5 sec range for 0-60mph. 4. Find another spot for the two Bose speakers (on premium trims) that are attached to the area where the door & window meet. They seem like an after thought and are one of the only “flimsy” parts of the interior. Bottom line Mazda, if you were to offer 3 engine options (one being the I6), shortened the shifts, and had an updated suspension….nobody in the segment could f*** with you. Even if you had to raise the cost for said models (hybrid 2.5T & I6 turbo/na), most people would be cool with it. A CX-50 with 300-340 hp & 320-360 torq would kill everything, even with the current suspension.

@mstopek 6 месяцев назад

I have a cx-90 preferred plus. It is great but as noted by many other journalists, the change between the electric motor and the 8 speed gears in the transmission is not always smooth especially in slow speed traffic. The transmission can be a little jerky. Also the steering is super slow. It is super precise but I would prefer a slight faster steering ration. It is a little tough to maneuver in parking lots and while parallel parking. Also the suspension can be a little too firm at times. Overall I really love the car and got a great deal on it. All cars have imperfections and these are just small ones I have the the cx-90. Great job overall with a new platform, new transmission and a brand new engine. Not too many bugs for a first gen product.

I came from a oem+ tuned MK7 GTI to my 23 CX50 TPP so i dont have any complaints on the steering but more communication would be welcomed. The suspension does get a bit rough on dirt roads or some of really bad sections of road here in Michigan, to me it feels like im driving on heavy aftermarket wheels (the 20's are pretty heavy) so do plan to change to lighter flowformed 18/19's. But they need to offer the updated dampers as a replacement retrofit from the dealers but maybe soon we will have even better options like Bilstein or Koni..

@michaelnance8319 6 месяцев назад

I have a few suggestions for the CX 5 model. Please let them know that some customers would like to see a full upgrade on the CX 5 and when the hybrid model is introduced make sure to improve the gas mileage and give customers the option for a panoramic sun roof to be included in CX 5 models and for the CX 5 turbo signature give the option for different type of seat color and material and for extra features in the top trim have the second row to include heat and cool seat seats. Let Customers have the option to make the second row to be Captain Chairs with an entertainment console with a wireless charger port and other standard features. It only makes sense when the hybrid model arrives these little details will be popping around in Customers thoughts. Make it happen. Tell the engineers in Japan that the CX 5 needs a major overhaul and new features. I personally would like to see a Legacy Turbo Signature CX 5 that would let the Customer customize or pick three different type of materials for the seats and have the option of a panoramic sun roof and have the option to ditch the second row bend seats for two Captain chairs with heat and ventilated seats and have a removable entertainment console that included a wireless charger port. Have a Turbo Hybrid engine in the Legacy Turbo Signature.

Always best to wait at least 1 model year (2 really) before buying an all-new production vehicle, unless you are willing to deal with more problems/issues, bugs and/or vehicle quirks. So, 2024 or 2025 would be the optimal model year for purchase of a CX-50 more than likely. That strategy worked for me on my 2022 CX-30 CE & it has been 100% problem/issue free going on 2 years now. When I purchased the new 2020 TNGA-platform Corolla SE sedan in its first model year it turned out to be a problematic mess & I ended up ditching it after only 2 years & 10K miles. Love the color of the CX-50 in this video btw.

What problems did you have wih your cx30? Mine is a 2023, and while there are some things I think could be better (sunvisors, center console lid, too slow of steering, doesn't always lock when I walk away), the only real problems I have are rattles that come and go, and poor throttle response from a stop.

@@mitchellsteindler I haven't had any issues with my 2022 CX-30 Carbon Edition whatsoever, but then I have all the tech features turned off & only really use the backup camera & blind spot monitoring out of everything. I also have no desire to connect my smartphone to my vehicle or use it while driving in any way. Surprisingly, I don't have any rattles in the cabin even after almost 2 years now, & it's a pretty quiet/insulated place for this price/size segment. The 6-spd automatic behaves nicely in both normal/sport mode & the non-turbo 186hp 2.5L engine is plenty powerful enough IMO. I'm glad that my 2022 doesn't have cylinder-deactivation engine tech though - which is something that the 2023+ CX-30 now has. 🙁

@dystopia-usa I totally misread your comment 🤣. I thought you said it has been 100% problems lol. I also have the carbon edition, and yeah the cylinder deactivation is not good. It vibrates really bad.

No issues with my ‘23 CX50 for the past year!
