For a more dynamic driving experience with some adrenaline behind the wheel, a turbocharged Mazda CX-5 Sport would be an interesting choice. Note that all CX-5s come with all-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic transmission.
Regardless of the engine under the hood, the towing capacity of the CX-5 is 2,000 lbs, which is impressive for a compact SUV, and should certainly satisfy the needs of many.
With 7 different versions on the market, you will find a CX-5 that meets your needs and offers you the range of accessories you want in your vehicle.
Indeed, the cabin of this SUV is a point that comes up often in the Mazda CX-5 review. MotorTrend actually writes about it:
“We’ve lauded the second-gen CX-5 for its attractive exterior and interior design, fun driving dynamics and practicality…” [1]
Whether it’s a turbocharged or non-turbocharged engine under the hood, you’ll be comfortable inside this SUV, which already offers a wide range of accessories in the Mazda CX-5 GX, the entry version.
In the GX, you’ll find:
While the CX-5 GX is already well-decorated with a larger center screen than many vehicles in its class, all higher trims come with a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel, an addition that’s always welcome during Québec winters.
Starting with the Mazda CX-5 GT, all versions are equipped with a top-of-the-line 10-speaker Bose stereo system, so you can fully enjoy every note of your favorite song.
For your transportation requirements, you’ll find 871 L of cargo space behind the rear row of seats, which can be increased to 1,680 L by lowering this row of seats.
For those who want a vehicle that stands out, the Kuro Edition is for you. Including all the features of the Mazda CX-5 GS with its comfort accessory Package, the Kuro Edition catches the eye in terms of style.
The interior of the Kuro Edition comes with garnet red leather seats that perfectly complement the black accents added around the dashboard and on the door panels.
On the outside, the 19-inch wheels in black finish and the grille surround in the same color give the vehicle undeniable style.
And these are just some of the many points that might help you consider choosing it!
