There is still no price list until it is launched








I placed booking for 2.5 high plus. Welcome car owners to share their owneship experience on this model. Any discussion about the car problems & thoughts r helpful for potential buyer like me. 😂
The popular question. What is the actual fuel consumption of this car? Im going to upgrade from x70 which the actual FC 7-9km/l for mix city/hw drive

No diesel option this time?

price released.. the addition RM2k for active e-film worth it?

It is compulsory if not mistake. 😔

is Mazda CX-8 good? 2.5Turbo... boleh ka?

Fellow CX-8 kaki here - 2.5 High+. Vroom vroom!!

Does installing a Hard-wire Kit for the Dashcam (so it remains on despite the car is off) void any of the warranty?

Looking for recommendations for Side-Step/Running Board - kids (below 12) and oldfolks really have a hard climbing into the third row seats.

From my experience, i had free gift dashcam from bermaz that hard wired, they say warranty still valid. but i guess case to case basis? not sure bro to be totally honest

Any particular tinting place to recommend, the default tint doesnt seem to cut it atm, gets so hot under the sun :S

I'm using raytech for all my cars, it is good.

Its a shame the factory tint is not optional. A waste to spend additional rm2k.

wokay - anyone here changed their CX8 batteries .. like, too frequently?

my last battery change was back in March 2024, from the default/original to VARTA (via bateriku). Didn't last very long (or did it? genuinely confused) - cause we had to replace it AGAIN just this morning - from VARTA to ASTRA.

Why bateriku? Becuase the nearby Mazda SC quoted 600+ to replace the battery, and that's the "cheaper" variant which "boleh tahan satu tahun" - wtf? aren't these batteries supposed to last a few years, 2-3 at least?
And the more "atas" battery is RM 725, - kuat boleh tahan 2 tahun.
Meanwhile, bateriku quoted RM468 for the ASTRA, which the abang mentioned, SHOULD last at least a year or more - and door-to-door service.

Is there something wrong with our unit (CX8), maybe the altenator? cause eating a batter every year isn't a thing we want in the long run.. car's been with us only 3 years

do you use the i-stop? i always disable. my Astra now is 1y 3m. still good.

that is the first thing we turned off when we received the car good to know the Astra is holding up well, hopefully ours can go beyond the 2years mark.. cause this is like the 3rd battery, and the car's just 3yo

Have my CX-8 on Sept 2023, and recently replaced the battery on May 2025. Last serviced was on March 2025, SC mentioned battery still ok and but early May 2025 start to feel the ignition a bit slow (need to hold longer at the push start button). To avoid hassle sudden dead of the battery, went to replace mine outside SC, brand Quattron, more pricey than usual battery, i.e. 1.6k. After changed it, ignition of the car is "strong" and the battery is lighter too.
