Is the car ride is really harsh and bumpy or is it the 19" that is causing it. I find it a pain to ride in the back of the car.

REPORTING...

STILL WAITING FOR THE CAR....

BOOKED SINCE 13th APRIL 2012...

RIDICULOUS....

I dont like the Mazda logo. But this CX-5 seems like just a great car... in terms of design, fuel economy, safety.(on the paper stuff looks great)

As for handling, performance, comfort... still donnu leh.

What you guys say? is it noisy?

Hi guys,

According to the review, the CX5 from 0-100 km/h Acceleration: 9.4 seconds.

That's a very impressive for SUV in this range, however i don't have a chance to test it & i know we wouldn't make it @ 9.4s, what i want to say is i feel this car is under power, doesn't sound like under 10s category.
please share yours.

thanks

This was achieved under 90% Highway and 10% City. Average speed 100km/h - 110km/h.

After half a year of waiting, I've finally taken delivery of my brand new 2WD Aluminum Metallic CX-5. The car is <80KM and it drives absolutely like CRAP.

I was not surprised as I've tested this car in many different mileage, as a matter of fact in more than 1 country as well. The brand new non-broken in engine, n00bie ECU driving pattern is extremely conservative as many reviews have noted...which I believe are based on brand new car. The transmission up shifts very quickly and quietly to 3/4th gear. Once there, the car loses pick up and barely moves. Hence many complaint that it's underpowered. However, I knew that's not true as I've tested broken in units before with over 4-6k KM on them.

Looks like sensei has gotta tech the car how to drive these few months .

PS: First day traffic jam like hell. Drove the car all the way from Gombak back to KL and it capped 10.xL/100KM. Excellent mileage for a car of this size. The E200 Kompressor at home does 13L+

Pretty sly of the dealer I dealt with. Waited for 5 months without any news or update from dealer. ONLY when I threaten to cancel order, they said that my car is READY for collection!!!

Really fishy. Still, I cancelled it as I was really disappointed with the service rendered. I was wondering - if the service is like this before the sale took place, how's the AFTER-SALE service???

CX-5 could be the best car in the world, but what a waste since sales is undertaken by morons!

Does it comes with AutoFold Side mirror?

Saw one white colour CX-5 on the road today

I must say im falling in love with it now   

What items do you think will be unavailable from the CBU in CKD?

I got to know that the CX 5 is not really a CKD but a SKD which means the whole car is assemble in Japan and only the fitment of wheels or sound unit or some small parts. This is basically for tax purposes. It is the same as Passat CKD. True CKD is like Honda, Toyota and possibly Nissan which are able to sell by ton loads.

Business sense speaking, it is not economical of scale to produce a car probably with 2000 - 3000 a year. Just the tooling cost itself is high.

With the major work done in Japan, i think the quality will still be there. I am not a Bermaz employee so i am writing based on the information i received.

How is the recent fuel consumption of this car in KL? last week driving in the massive jam manage to get 370 KM for full tank rm100...

they are starting to become arrogant and cash in on the buyer side as they realise the car is popular... standard protocol. The salesman so arrogant when i view the car, no test drive, with the attitude of you want you come, you dont want fuxk off... Really disappointed.

I been to Mazda Penang Kristal Point showroom. The SA very polite and helpful.
