I ended up getting H+P. Have really been utilizing the two additional functions that I wanted the most, the ALH & 360 camera. Really helpful especially in tight areas. And the ALH, I am really amazed with it especially when driving in dark area with moderate traffic.

CX5 2.0 is underpowered. Personally for me the minimum engine you need for CX5 is the 2.5

Pros of CX30 vs CX5
- latest interior and exterior design
- latest HU software and design (CX5 could've got this in the facelift but for some reasons Bermaz exclude it)
- better designed front seats
- HUD (you need to get CX5 2.5T for it)
- 2.0 engine is just nice for the size
- the 360 camera in CX30 H+ P is much clearer than the 360 cam in CX5
- CX30 H+ P gets ALH and FCTA (not available on CX5 iinm)
- handles better than CX5

Pros of CX5 vs CX30
- more practical
- more comfortable and quieter due to double glazed windows and softer suspension tuning + rear independent suspension
- cooled front seats (CX5 2.5 above)
- rear seats are more comfortable
- more engine choices

in short if you are looking for a family car the CX5 is better. if you are single, just married without kids, or have no use / seldom use for the rear seats, then CX30 can be considered
