just test drove the HRV 1.8, the initial pickup is ok. 1 thing I realise is the rear passenger feels "bouncy", it's as though it hops over bumps rather than absorbing it.

HRV is alright ~

*Note* in long run, the i-stop will be very annoying for CX5 lol driving a bmw here the start-stop ....ugh u have to turn it off all the time

most of the suv or hybrid suv have the same characteristic... mainly due to their height... and their nature is mostly for passanger fetching....

any idea if the upcoming toyota c-hr will be comparable to mazda cx-5?

Based on some video released, the size is quite similar to A-Class, on the inside. Probably not even as big as HRV.
Not even sure if this car will come to Malaysia market anytime soon.

almost same price . sure select bigger segment la bro. unless u really concenrn about RV

CX-5 is comparable to CR-V bro

thanks for the answer bros.....is it true that the new generation of mazda cx-5 will be launched in msia in second half of 2017?

The next gen cx-5 will be revealed next week at the LA Auto Show. Seeing the cx-5 is one of Bermaz best selling models, so I guess 2nd half 2017 launch in Malaysia is likely.
And now that the next gen CR-V has been unveiled, surely mazda will not want to lose ground on their direct competition.

CX5 bro. It's CKD, but you get a proper SUV, c-segment. IF you sit inside a HRV, you'll know it's practically a city/jazz on stilts.

There isn't really any point in discussing this unless you consult an expert LIKE ME FIRST. Jkjk
