CX-5 looks cool and have great spec. Too bad I just book a Prius.

Hahaha...it has been the toughest decision to make when buying the Prius. Hybrid seems to scare a lot of people off due to the high cost of the battery and some more most mechanic might not know how to repair it. The other thing is that there are a lot of bigger car for the same money.

Yalor hoh. How the hell did I get sucked into the Prius Luxury instead

I am not sure how he achieve that mileage. I see a review here...and Link is what the reviewer claim,

"The manual transmission is sharp and sweet as well, although on test we could only manage 39mpg against the claimed Combined economy of 61.4mpg. The petrol unit loves to rev but there isn't much low-end torque, although we achieved 32mpg against a Combined claim of 42.8mpg."

Here is from another review...

"CX-5 models expected to deliver a best-in-class 33 miles per gallon on the highway and 26 mpg in the city. Adding the automatic transmission drops the highway number to 32 mpg, and equipping the CX-5 with all-wheel drive reduces overall economy to 25/30 mpg."

Suddenly best in class becomes best in the world even beating out Hybrid...hmmmm.
