Go test drive both and feel the difference.

CX-5 is a better overall in terms of driving dynamics. X-Trail only better on the low gravity seat, 360 camera and extra 3rd row seats but only comes with 2 airbags.

I owned a CX-5 and my father in law drives a X-trail.

Innova? A MPV on a Hilux platform...seriously u can forget about it unless u are ferrying 6 ppl everyday.

huh...manual version ?
do you mean semi-auto ?

2017 All-New Mazda CX-5 Coming To Malaysia In July, Exports In August

anyone can confirm?

Personally I feel that All new 2017 CX-5 looks much more premium, with better appearance and interior, also come with G-Vectoring technology.
However, not sure if the Soul Red Crystal paint colour will be available in Msia as we don't get Soul Red for CKD last time.

Which dealer that offered u RM7500 rebate?

Last time i understood the reason they dont provide Soul Red is because of local workshop do not have the technology to paint it. And if you scratch your car, you will have difficulty to touch up in normal paint workshops.

Back row may not be the spacious, as cannot adjust the reclining position. However, there are aftermarket parts for that.

Maintenance? it is free service and labour for the first 60k km or 3 years which ever come first. Parts wise I guess won't be cheaper than Toyota.

CX-5 2.0 got 2 variants, low spec and high spec. Then there's the 2.5L and a 2.2 Diesel.

Current facelift version comes with a sport mode, just a flick of the button and it will hold the gear at higher rpm before the next change. Pretty useful when overtaking or going uphill for 2.0. Alternatively u can go to manual mode.

This car is almost 5 years now and still Mazda's best seller.

How's your test drive?

You will regretted if go for HRV...... my sis HRV full of rattling sound for just 1 yr plus.... driving control no way meet CX5 ....A/C issue, can't cold back seat effectively at all!!!
More makan minyak then CX5 due to under power....add 10k more on house... emm nth much leh hehe

i find it weird ppl still taking RV as top priority consideration, are they changing cars every 5 years ?

HRV has shitty interior...underpowered

the only advantage of HRV over CX-5 is only the space...nothing else

btw...does HRV come with 6 airbags ?

Emm not 30k lah!!!
CX5 2.0L HS should be ~20k or lesser after rebate but now having clearance promotion....was told min ~4k

Of cause can't compare Saga FL.....
~RM20k left ~SGP6k+ .... nth much for your house koh !!!

Again, up to your preference as here just for recommendation hehe!! I was from Toyota for pass 10 years and I had no regret move out from T* as really different driving experience.... I feel M* more like a Japan Continental Car.... hahahaah!!!!

I didn't say HRV bad just feel CX5 more worth it hehehe... to be honest no matter H or T.. if you sell less then 3 years all also kaput.... if u sell after 5-7 yrs then all car the same maybe T and H slightly better hehe!!

CX5 w/ free 3 years service + lubricant (if you are fine w/ semi and Shell) while H and T tak ada!!!

Again as long as you happy haha!! If buy but no happy then useless also!!! Enjoy your HRV

Yes at least for High Spec.

Just for your reference...

CX5 w/ free 3 years service + lubricant (if you are fine w/ semi and Shell) while H and T tak ada!!! Below just my assumption and might be wrong interval
- Minor ~250-300 while Major ~500-600
- Minor : 1k 5k 10k 20k 30k 50k = 250 x 6 = ~1.5k
- Major : 40k = ~500
- Total : ~2k++

Below price might not be exact but as reference only
HRV 1.8V : ~RM122k maybe w/ 2k rebate = ~RM120k
CX5 2.0L HS : ~RM142k maybe w/ 4k rebate = ~RM138k - ~2k service = ~RM136k
Delta : ~RM16k or ~SGP5k

Main different:
- Engine : CX5 2.0L Vs HRV 1.8L
- Size : CX5 bigger mainly much larger boot space
- Shape : CX5 better but depend on ppls heheh
- Interior : CX5 HS full leather
- FC : Skyactive definitely much better
- RV : HRV sure win for this but CX5 is the highest or most wanted SUV in market... as long as more owner mean more value
- Features : CX5 HS w/ Navi (depend on ppls some feel useless ahha), power seat, front and back safety sensor, reverse cam much clearer, A/C more powerful, centralize control (like BMW)

If want extremely safety then go for Subaru Forester... now same price as HRV after huge rebate hehe!! However, sorry for RV and shape sikit xxxx but depend on ppls also.

By rite you should service every 6 mths even not driving up to the mileage.... if you ask conservative elder ppls sure all H n T ... no offence hehehe!!! i was like that b4 hahah.. I sold my Altis in 1 year n loss 10k... just to let you know heehheeh .... H n T quality degrade so much now....my old Vios tahan 9 years not much rattling sound heheh
