The advantages and disadvantages of Mazda CX-5 2018-2019 in the new body are identified on the basis of reviews of real owners. More detailed pros and cons of Mazda CX-5 2.0 and 2.5 with an automatic, front and full AWD drive can be found from the stories below.

Ownership reviews

The time has come to change the previous CX5 (2012) to the new (2017). I looked closely, and after the test drive issued an agreement. Feels from driving the car almost did not change. It was better to pass the sleeping police and irregularities in general.

The main thing is noise insulation. A completely different level of acoustic comfort. Music and bluetooth at the same good level. The rear train chamber has become better - dynamic marking appeared almost not dumping.

Already pleased heated steering wheel - the thing is necessary. It became much more convenient with the electric drive of the trunk door. In general, all changes are extremely positive.

Video Feedback

The first trip from the salon to the house was impressed: silence and comfort. Inside the car everything looks very reasonable. High-quality and soft plastic, comfortable seats, no noise, except for a pleasant engine sound when driving. Yes, you did not hear. Motor on 2 liters is enough to move 1.5 tons around the city with good dynamics.

The car is used in the city of 99% of the time (100 km of the track 1 time per month). Fuel consumption Humane for crossover: 6 liters track, 8 liters city. Now in a mixed cycle of 7.6 liters. Gasoline 95th, without additives.

The suspension became softer in comparison with the last generation. Control is amazing, as in all models of this brand. For the city of cars is very comfortable.

Review of the new Mazda CX-5 2017 2.0 (150 hp) with automatic

After the first 400 kilometers of the mileage from flaws, I can call:

1. Weak noise insulation in the area of \u200b\u200bthe arches. It is possible to partially cure the installation of the shoes and softer rubber, but now this sound dominates when driving along the highway. Aerodynamic noise and crickets in the cabin. Sometimes there are screensing pads after washing or rain. On previous machines, they were not so much expressed.

2. Very china salon, plastic is subject to scratches, the fabric on the seats literally absorbs dust. Perhaps in the near future there will be available covers from eco-skin.

3. Large dead zones behind front racks and to the right during rebuilding - for a long time suffered with setting up mirrors and planting. In more expensive equipment, there are appropriate sensors, I think that for inexperienced drivers, they are not at all extra.

Now about the features and dignity of the car:

Rolls in turns, in comparison with Mazda 6 there is, but this is a matter of habit. Rolls and suspension elastic and soft. The steering wheel is empty, and when moving at a speed of 100-120, it is at first somewhat annoying, but when rebuilding, maneuvering in urban mode is ideal for me.

The longitudinal squabble when driving along the highway is also stronger than on the six. The overclocking dynamics, the smoothness of the switching box, the reserve of traction in the city is excessive. Light shoes when switching transmissions appear with intense pedals, but so far I try to turn more than 2,500 rpm on the run.

With the current mode of driving, consumption on the highway 8 liters, around the city about 11 liters. I think that urban consumption can still be reduced, if you go to the style of "Grandfather goes to the country."

Feedback on Mazda CX-5 2.0 with a full-wheel drive 2018 G.V.

Where can one buy?

Appearance and body: Looks like an expressive handsome man. The car is not so recognizable in the stream, but the devil lies in the details. The doors are quite heavy, they feel Shumkov, closed with royal cotton and not with an annoying clang. A bunch of rubber bands everywhere. We went on dusty primer: a friend in a car a lot of dust, I do not have a hint.

Paint black pearl in the sun is straight happy. Immediately cover with liquid glass or ceramic coating! Do not save! The quality of the LCP is like everyone else. Scratched only on the road.

On the move the machine is soft, but in moderation. It is not such a roll as it seemed to the drive test. Yes, steering does not differ in super sharpness, but you won't call it. You can switch in turn. In my opinion, it is perfect here (for this money) a compromise between softness and handling.

Noise Isolation: Excellent, Just Great! Best in class! Really quietly. This is stated so much in various reviews, so I will not focus on.

Engine dynamics: quite well! Believe me, these 192 moose will be enough for you in any situation. It is impossible to say that she brings and flies! She just rides. Acceleration is pretty vigorous and from 60 km / h and from 100 km / h. When you put in the floor from 0 km / h, it feels a pickup, but 80-90 km / h is already smaller and so up to 160 km / h, after it is already slowly gaining speed. I accelerate to 210 km / h.

Review of Mazda CX-5 2.5 (192 hp) Machine 4WD 2019

I will compare with my KIA Sportage, which was true on the mechanics and had a four-wheel drive. If we compare according to the dynamics, then I am delighted with CX-5. My Sportage turned out to be vegetable compared to her. I do not drive until, but acceleration occurs immediately and very actively.

Brakes are worthy and not very sharp. Consumption in the city without large plugs of 9 liters. Overview in CX-5 is much better than that of Sportage, wider windows, narrower racks, and landing higher. Under the car immediately installed plastic protection, which quite arranged for 7 years on Sportage, I think it serves as much as CX-5.

With Shumkov worked on fame. At least with the previous generation of CX5 and Sportage, the difference is huge. And if, judging by the reviews, the previous CX-5 was a problem with Shumkov, now this minus is fixed. The only thing that confuses is the trunk, which from the sides will drive something with a darning and when you engage, for example, for the velcro, this crap starts to strain.

The owner goes to Mazda CX-5 2.0 with an automatic machine 2018

debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show in the fall of 2011. Sales of the car in Europe and Russia started simultaneously in early 2012. The novelty immediately became very popular in our market, although, of course, bypassing the then bestseller brand - which at that time we were bought as hot cakes, I could not immediately. But today this crossover is a unconditional sales leader among the other models of Mazda represented in Russia.

In his arsenal, stylish and dynamic design, excellent running quality and gambling controllability, tracked and economical motors, as well as high build quality and reliability (a little later).

CX-5 is built according to traditional machines of this type of scheme: it has a body carry, independent suspension of all wheels, high ground clearance and all-wheel drive transmission with an electronic-controlled coupling in the rear axle drive. We and front-wheel drivers are sold, but only in the initial configurations of Drive and Active, and exclusively with a base gasoline two-liter engine with a capacity of 150 forces. By the way, besides him in the motor gamma there is another 192-strong unit, as well as a 2.2 l turbodiesel with a capacity of 175 hp Unfortunately, the representation of the Japanese company last year ceased to receive orders for diesel modifications of the crossover due to their Mazda of the immodest price tag. True, the dealers remained in warehouses. In addition, our motorists are still quite wary of the engines with heavy fuel engines. Gearboxes - six-speed mechanical and automatic.

In February 2015, dealers began selling Mazda CX-5. The renewed crossover can be recognized by the modified radiator grille, other turn signs in the side mirrors, as well as LED Farm, fonts and rear lamps. The car has improved noise insulation of the coolest arches and the engine compartment. The cabin has changed the design of the climate control unit and the center console, and also appeared a more perfect information and entertainment system MZD CONNECT. Among technical innovations, we note the electronic parking brake and sports mode for an automatic transmission.

However, for the Russian autolochloride of all these flattering reviews is not enough to recognize Mazda CX-5 one of the best in the class. The bestseller must also create a minimum of operational problems and not ruin in content. And here the "five" is practically no equal. The car is produced for five years and during this time some malfunction statistics have already accumulated. The first stone in the garden of skeptics became modern engines with the company SkyActive technology, which were so reliable that they were almost deprived of any congenital sores. True, these engines should be refilled only with high-quality oil and periodically control its level. SkyActive Fours Consumes oil to avgar, and its deficit can lead to a drive breakdown. Therefore, it is necessary to take the rule to control the level of tracks at least once a week.

From the unpleasant moments, we note that losing the tightness of the gasket of the valve and the front covers to 50,000 km of mileage. However, their replacement is not at all burdensome. In the risk group of the ignition coil - they are one for each cylinder. Price - 6000-7000 rubles per each. Also ahead of time - 40,000 km of run - may fail the drive belt, which changes with the roller. And further. The two-liter motor on Russian CX-5 develops 150 forces, and in some markets (for example, in America and Japan) this "Four" gives 165. Dealers, if they ask them well, these 15 hp can return to your motor. back, electronic motor control unit.

Advertise gearboxes are reliable. Although if you wish, you can kill them, if you take the rule to drive with a pedal to the floor, a sharply starting and running out. But the first time the dispensing box will take a punch, more precisely - its seals, which from barbaric operation to 80,000 km begin to sweat. But these are still flowers. From such an active ride, the pillows of the dispensing are also faced, and they do not change separately - only with the subframe. So, replacement will turn out 60,000 rubles.

In the suspension at 40,000-60,000 km, it is often necessary to change the front hub bearings, which comes assembled with the hub (15,000 rubles). Approximately the same race will have to change torn anthers. True, they cost a penny, but the work of the official will pull out 3500-5,000 rubles per pair. Brake discs are not too durable (7500 casual), which, however, withstand two replacement of pads. In the steering control, the left craving is updated, which due to the constructive flaws, touches the Rake Cover. The item is changed to upgraded from 2,200 rubles.

The electrical equipment of the problems will not be delivered with the exception of one-time cases of the failure of the Mirror folding mechanism (12,000 target for Remkomplekt) and their control unit. It happens that the sensor of the "automaton" mode of switching modes comes into disrete. True, the officials learned how to repair this node for the sulking pennies.

An amazing hybrid of the city and off-road car is becoming increasingly popular - crossover. Born out of the ugly duckling, the younger brother of the "real" jeeps, which contemptuously called the "Parquet Jeep", "Parketnik", this class became a real swan of roads. Mazda CX 5 - a bright representative of the class of crossovers, whose silhouette has long been recognizable on Russian roads. We talked a lot about the advantages that this car possesses, but there are stains in the sun, so we consider the disadvantages of Mazda CX 5.

Mazda CX 5 was released from the conveyor relatively (with closest competitors) recently - in 2011 in native Japan. And already on the next (2012) year, the year was in the car dealerships of Russia, where it was very warmly met, despite the "biting" price - about 900,000 in the prices of the awaited apocalypse.

Initially, it was presented in three modifications divided by the volume of the engine - 2 and 2.5 liters on gasoline, as well as 2.2 liters on the diesel population. But in the very near future, the latter modification was refused - the practice has shown that the time of diesel cars, at least in Russia, passed.

Also, the buyer is free to choose between two types of transmissions - automatic and "handling". Both options are six-speed. Exotic seems to be stepless variators or mechanical robots, Mazdovtsy is traditionally not acceptable.

The leading front axle is, in some modifications, the crossover is able to turn into a full-fledged 4 × 4 SUV, but only on time and running smart (it really wants to believe) onto the on-board computer.

In 2015, the car survived the Global Restyling, during which he received a number of improvements "on numerous requests" of real and potential auto owners of this brand of past years. On some of these improvements (for example, the oil level sensor that appears and the oil pressure sensor) were already told in previous articles. Therefore, today we are talking primarily about the lack of Mazda CX 5 version 2015-2016. Now on sale Ude - 2017, read it separately.

In little things

At first - relatively crayon cons. Someone these weak points may seem like soldering, but do not forget: in terms of safety on the road, it cannot be small things.

So, how does the owners upset:

1. Weak noise insulation. In dorestayling versions, at a speed of 100 km / h (when driving on a grain asphalt), it was almost impossible to talk in the cabin. Rather, you can talk, but hearing each other - no. Partially in 2015, the situation improved, but to the nearest competitors far.
2. Weak windshield resistance to chips. Many, faced with this problem for the first time, think that they got the defective lobuch. But no, this is not a marriage, but technology feature. The hardening technique makes the glass harder - it is more difficult to scratch it, but the inverse side of the hardness is fragility. Even a small pebble can cause chip. Stick about two ends!
3. No heating steering wheel. Of course, Mazda is positioning his car as a middle jubus, however, the price of the Supreme top-end equipment reaches 2,000,000 rubles (and with "dopami" - noticeably exceeds). And this is a little less default configuration of the crossover from BMW. Unpleasant at such a cost to see savings on trifles.
4. Harness and low urgent wear resistance. If there is no complaint to the seats, then there is no complaintory. If you regularly use the door pockets (and who does not use them?), It is very easy if you don't get dirty, then "plant" fabric.
5. Sensitivity to fuel quality. Sometime, literally penny costs for gasoline have long been the main items of auto owners. The moreover, when the sensitivity of the motor to "nutrition" does not allow to save at least a little. However, there is a way out - to purchase a complete set. Even the highest quality diesel fuel will cost cheaper than gasoline.

And now let's talk about more serious shortcomings.

Disadvantages of Mazda CX 5 more serious

As it usually happens, the shortcomings are a continuation of the merits. But first things first.

I-Stop.

At one time, Mazdovtsy was loudly reported on the creation of an innovative I-STOP system. This system automatically disables the engine at a long stop, and then it starts it again when the driver presses the gas to move from the spot. At first glance, nothing outstanding, however, the MAZ designers managed to make a shutdown-switching on the engine almost invisible to the driver.

For the driver, but not for the engine itself, which regular start-stop does not even notice!

Playing fuel economy at stops premature motor consumption is a big question.

Electronics

Of course, it is no pleasant to feel behind the machine of tomorrow, but is there always cybernetization for good? For example, already mentioned electronic control of the full drive - why not give the driver at least optionally use the four-wheel drive yourself? Mazda does not trust such users so much?

Mazda CX 5 is equipped with a blind zone control system. Safety lamps will warn the driver about the potential danger in the blind zone. The thing is of course useful, but quite often fails, and the driver can count on it.

In general, the operation of electronic control systems is provided by an abundance of sensors that are not distinguished by reliability. And only specialists on certified hundreds will be able to eliminate their malfunctions.

Often the reason for the unfailing of electronics (for example, I-STOP) can be a tritely hooked battery, having delivered the owner an extra concern. In general, many drivers (especially, the "old starter") note that "the computer on wheels" seems to live his life. Publicumes are launched discussion of ways to make the top five slightly less "very smart" (disable all the same notorious I-STOP, including).

Not always innovative - it means better.

This problem is a direct continuation of the previous one - the saturation of the auto "smart" electronics. If the operation of the automatic transmission in manual mode does not cause complaints, then the automatic mode requires the driver of certain skills.

It has been repeatedly noted that the automation "loves" to overtakes. Even when the "Sport" mode is disconnected for this. The result may be unpleasant: adding gas, for example, when overtaking up the mountain, you can get the opposite effect - the engine "cares" the overestimated turns and instead of the speed gain, it will be noticeable to its "seed".

Also, if you believe the reviews, with the active operation of the automatic transmission in a fully automatic mode, you can feel noticeable jerks when shifting gear. If you do not pay attention to them and do not appeal for the qualified help of Mazda service partners, it is possible to complete the transmission output.

Multimedia

Only lazy not wrote about this problem. Although Mazda CX 5 and refers to the average price category, the car clearly has claims to enter her (categories) the top segment, supporting its premium counterparts in the class.

But at the same time, multimedia causes or laughter, or tears. Judge for yourself:

• screen diagonal less than 6 ";
• a ridiculous resolution, an outstanding pixels, which seem to be cut;
• no memory - reset to first track each time disabling.

And the main thing is complete incompatibility with modern operating systems. Because of which, in particular, it is impossible to replace the navigation system without criticism. It comes to a funny - system of navigation and multimedia machine for one and a half million rubles, serves a hundred-wallast smartphone on the suction cup.

Of course, even so many spoons of the tar will not spoil a large spoonful of honey - Auto Mazda Cx 5. Weighing the pros and cons, it is safe to say that the advantages of this crossover outweigh the flaws. However, constructors, engineers and designers of the concern "Mazda still eats over what to work. Moreover, there is every reason to hope that many of these problems will be corrected in the new version of the legendary five, which comes on sale in the salons of Russia until the end of the summer of 2017.

Mazda CX 5 refers to the number of innovative car models, the pride of which is a powerful improved engine. These vehicles are equipped with two types of motors - diesel or gasoline - performed by one SkyActiv technology.

On Internet forums, the happy owners of CX 5 do not regret the flattering words addressed to their car, noting high performance, its reliability, ergonomics and efficiency, as well as the excellent convenience of SkyActiv technology. Without a doubt, the motor is the strength of this model.

If we talk about possible difficulties with the main power unit, the victim, they can be divided into:

• problems of operational nature associated directly with the engine;
• accessory difficulties caused by the problem of the selection of the most suitable fuel.

Difficulties associated with the selection of "consumables"

Mazda can be equipped with both a 2.2-liter skayactive motor, fuel for which is served by diesel and two variants of gasoline engines by 2 liters and 2.5 liters, with a capacity of 150 and 192 horsepower, respectively.

The engine such a high-tech forced car is quite "capricious" in terms of "consumables", due to the high sensitivity to the quality of oil, gasoline / diesel fuel.

It's no secret that lubricants intended for servicing certain structural features of power units may have different quality, which often depends the deadline of the free operation of the car.

That is why, machine-building companies during tests of automotive engines pay a lot of attention to the fuels.

Only subject to the use of properly selected fuel and autowork, you can count on the fact that the Motor CX 5 will work as a watch.

According to the recommendations of the manufacturer's experts, the owners of this brand of cars wishing to visit the auto service as possible, it is necessary to strictly adhere to the instructions contained in the instructions that are attached to the vehicle.

Diesel, or rather his refueling, requires a special visual control from the car owner. The fact is that Mazda is approved by only the diesel fuel, which does not have a bluish-blue shade, which indicates the absence of harmful impurities.

Diesel, more than a gasoline engine, is demanding in terms of "food", therefore it is advisable to apply only those species of fuel that received an approving assessment of the manufacturer's company.

As for gasoline engines, it is equally good for them, both AI-95 and AI-98. Of course, the higher the octane number, the better.

Otherwise, it is not worth counting on high-quality operation of the power unit. Moreover, when using inappropriate gasoline, you can go to a hundred years after a couple of months after purchasing a new car.

Only a working gasoline engine is capable of providing the power to the manufacturer.

So, in order to avoid complaints with the work of the car, it is necessary to "feed" it only by what is indicated in the instructions.

This is very important, since when writing it, the company took into account the design features of the motors and for the preparation of recommendations was carried out by multiple studies.

Only the recommended "consumables" are 100% complyed with all parts, aggregates and nodes, provided by a complete set of cars. In particular, using licensed oils that have received an approving assessment, you can count on:

• minimum friction of parts of a car motor;
• neutralization of oxidation and corrosion products;
• leveling of possible emergency cases of the system reliability.

In particular, for gasoline engines Mazda CX 5, but oil is better fit Mazda Ultra 5W-30, providing, subject to year-round use, economical fuel consumption, and Supra 0W-20, the main advantage of which is the wide-temperature regime. Diesel also consumes branded Mazda Ultra 5W-30alternative to which may well become Supra 0W-30.

Thus, only the flawless selection of GSM is able to provide uninterrupted and long-term operation of the car.

Adhering to such rules, motorists have a number of explicit advantages. First, they receive a car that does not create problems and troubles, and secondly, it makes it possible to use it after a run of 100,000 km.

Uninterruptible work CX 5: Real opportunity or unattainable target?

Uninterrupted work of any car, and Mazda CX 5 In this regard, no exception is able to provide only the right and timely care, both both before and after the expiration of the warranty service.

It does not matter, diesel or gasoline, the adjustment of the most frequently involved car systems should be carried out with regular constancy. It is believed that diesel should undergo service, providing not only to replace the oil, but also a number of other "procedures" after 10 thousand km of run or once a year. For a gasoline engine, a number of 15 thousand km is relevant.

Of course, other factors, such as driving manners, road quality, climatic conditions affect the frequency of maintenance of the car.

If you live in an area where such a thing as asphalt does not exist at all, or you are accustomed to led on the principle of the gas pedal "to the floor", it does not mean that at Mazda CX 5, you can put a cross. The first-class machine can remain a good and after an extreme mode of operation, you only need to double the frequency of passage.

Practice shows that the diagnosis and oil change is carried out by conscious motorists much earlier than the deadlines: every 7.5 thousand km for gasoline engines and after 5000 km for diesel.

Engine CX 5: Possible difficulties and ways to solve them

In the fact that the correct selection of "consumables" is extremely important, many car owners have repeatedly convinced on their own experience.

The fact that the engine (diesel or gasoline) is faulty and needs to be repaired, may indicate:

• increased fuel consumption;
• increase in smoke;
• strengthening the noise of work;
• the appearance of vibrations;
• unevenness;
• falling turns.

Often with such problems, motorists have to face precisely after the use of low-quality fuel or oil.

As is known, the function of adjusting the supply of automotive fuels is assigned to the high pressure fuel pump (TNVD). The functionality of the entire motor depends on the serviceability of this part.

The TNLD diesel engine, an integral part of which the nozzles protrudes, has a rather complicated design. The use of low-quality "diesel engines" leads to wear of the nozzles, which can evidence the increase in smoke.

If behind the car, a trace of black smoke is in motion - this is the first sign that there is an incomplete combustion of fuel. As a result, fuel consumption increases, and the engine turnover is falling. Excessively rapid devastation of the tank may also indicate the presence of leakage in the TNVD.

In this case, the only correct solution is to change the pressure inside the car's fuel system, the maintenance of which ideally should be carried out every 1000 hours of operation.

Injector gasoline engine is no less capricient in "food". In particular, when using gasoline with an octane number of less than 95, such problems as a reduction in power, an increase in the toxicity of exhaust gases and smoke to avoid it is unlikely to succeed.

Increased vibration and noise of motor? This is a true sign that the crankshaft crankshaft is wear, which means that the grease used does not provide the desired result. Although not excluded and failure in the valve.

Perhaps the most weak point of most automotors of all Mazda brands are low wear resistance of the glands, although thermostats often fail, and long to 100,000 km of run.

The frequency of maintenance of starters, water pumps, brake pads, filters and generators again depends on the quality of fuel. After purchasing Mazda Mazda cars, the least complaints about the work of the battery, although most extents of car owners are still positive. The car positions well, even after an impressive kilometer.

Details of the Automotive (diesel / gasoline) Mazda CX 5 often makes the incorrectly built system of operation. Fortunately, this problem is subject to elimination.

The main thing when repairing the replacement of parts, use certified spare parts, and in the absence of proper skills - to trust the specialists.

In general, the engines of this brand car can be said that they comply with high standards, and even after 100,000 kilometers.

The complexities of the operational nature, fortunately, are non-species, and if they happen, eliminate them with the right approach will not be difficult.

And lastly, as always - an extremely useful video - a detailed comparison of the advantages and CX-5 and Tyota RAV 4

Japanese cars are very popular in Russia. These cars are in demand not only in the eastern, but in the western part of our country. And we have more popular crossovers. Therefore, it is not surprising that on the roads can be found "Mazda CX-5". This is a compact Japanese crossover for the first time submitted to the public in 2011 within the framework of the Frankfurt Auto Show. The serial release of the model was started in 2012. The assembly is carried out in several places:

• In Japan.
• Malaysia.
• Russia (city of Vladivostok).

But is it a good crossover "Mazda CX-5" 2017 in.? Reviews of owners, disadvantages and dignity of the car - further in the article.

Appearance

This crossover became the first in the Mazda line, the design of which was developed on the ideology of the "Spirit of Movement". But as if the manufacturer neither exaggerate, externally, the car looks like an ordinary crossover. In fairness it is worth noting that the Mazda looks very dynamically and bright. In front - branded grille with chrome edging and a linated optics. The bumper has a neat trapezoid neckline for the air intake. Also on the body you can see plastic protective linings. They are on the thresholds, wheeled arches and at the bottom of the bumpers.

A year ago, the Japanese released a restyled version of the crossover. It is worth saying what she looks impressive. As noted reviews, the car instantly attracts the views of others. Previously, such design practiced only "Tesla". So, the car received a rissed LED optics, and the body lines have become more stringent. Also, designers have focused on wheeled arches. They are now more pronounced that gives a crossover muscular and tightened appearance.

What do they talk about the quality of the metal "Mazda CX-5" reviews of owners? The disadvantages regarding anti-corrosion protection are not noted. Reviews say that the body does not rust. There are not even hints on "Ryzhiki". But there are complaints about paintwork. It is quite thin. After a year of operation, chips appear on the front part. Moreover, there is such a problem both on dorestayling and new models.

Sizes, clearance

The car is not too big, which is a plus for the city - they say reviews. The body length is 4.54 meters, width - 1.84, height - 1.67. The magnitude of the road lumen is 21 centimeter. It is quite good - they say reviews. The car confidently feels in winter and on light off-road. Despite such an angular bumper, the crossover rarely clings it.

Salon

The interior is made in the corporate identity "Mazda". This is a three-friendly, compact multi-core, seats with pronounced lateral support and instrument panel consisting of three separate wells.

After restyling, the Japanese changed not only appearance, but also the salon. As he looks now, the reader can see in the photo below.

New blowing deflectors appeared in the cabin with chrome edging, and the steering wheel changed slightly. The multimedia screen is now integrated into the panel and can be folded if necessary.

Among the advantages reviews note:

• Good ergonomics.
• Quality of finishing materials.
• Comfortable seats.
• Availability of free space.

Does the crossover "Mazda CX-5" flaws and weaknesses? Reviews say that a strange barn appears during the ride. As it turned out, the reason consisted in several elements. So, the side windows were not fixed rigidly in a serviced position, which is why the backlash occurs. This was the cause of a strange bounce. Another weak place is the seal. It has a special form, due to which insufficient deteriorating effort was ensured. But on new machines these "sores" were eliminated.

Another reason why an incomprehensible bounce arose in the cabin is a weak fastening of the windshield frame. So, with a worsening of the quality of the road surface in the cabin, an increasing barn appeared. The problem was solved under warranty.

Trunk.

In a five-seater version, the machine can accommodate up to 403 liters of luggage. It is also possible to fold the back of the rear sofa. As a result, the volume of the luggage compartment increased to 1560 liters. Under the floor there is a full-size spare wheel and a regular set of tools.

What are the drawbacks of Mazda CX-5 2018 in.? Owners say that when operating, you can encounter a malfunction of the lock cover of the trunk. The reason was to moisture, which formed in the cavities of the lock usually after washing the high pressure. The problem was solved under warranty. Thus, the owners not only replaced the castle, but also installed a special waterproof gasket on the button.

Specifications

For this crossover, several engines are provided. Among them are two gasoline and one diesel.

In the basic configuration, the car is equipped with a two-liter SkyEctive motor with direct fuel injection. Maximum motor power - 150 horsepower. It must be said that this engine is atmospheric. And such high characteristics of the engineers achieved thanks to an upgraded injection and an increased compression (on all motors of the SkyEctive line, it is 14: 1).

Among the advantages reviews are noted acceptable overclocking dynamics and high fuel efficiency. So, up to a hundred crossover with a basic motor accelerates 8.9 seconds on the mechanics and half awend later on the machine. And the maximum speed reaches 184 kilometers per hour. Fuel consumption - from 6.2 to 6.7 liters in a mixed cycle, depending on the installed gearbox.

In the top configuration, a 2.5-liter motor for 192 horsepower is available. This engine generates 256 Nm of torque. With him, the car accelerates to hundreds for 7.9 seconds. In a pair, a non-alternative automaton works with this amergat. The maximum speed is 194 kilometers per hour. Fuel consumption in a mixed cycle - 7.3 liters.

The diesel line represents only one unit. He is also built on SkyEctive technology. So, with a volume of 2.2 liters, it develops 175 horsepower. Torque - 420 nm. With this motor, the automatic transmission also works. Acceleration until hundreds takes 9.4 seconds. The maximum speed is 204 kilometers per hour. Fuel consumption - 5.9 liters per 100 kilometers in mixed mode.

Nuances and engines

What are the motors "Mazda CX-5" disadvantages? The reviews say that the crankshaft seal is rapidly wear out on these engines. It serves to 100 thousand kilometers.
