Personally it is getting old with the design and the current gen is more towards cost savings. FYI, My cousin just cancel the order after knewing the new facelift model coming in next year (2026). The Mazda SC personally tell him to wait.
Can google the latest CX5 facelift news, one of the reason my cousin wait is there is improvement in term of interior space as one of the weakness of Mazda cars is this.

QUOTE(Azzqech @ Aug 31 2025, 02:19 PM) With so many SUVs in the market including Chinese SUV EVs which have more features and are cheaper why do you insist on an outdated, underpowered and overpriced CX-5? Even the new X50 is a better buy. It's your money but I'm genuinely interested in your rationale. If for long term like 10~15 years ownership, Japanese car still fare better. Recently heard from my mechanic a lot of X50/X70 early batch plastic parts start to brittle easily, even Japanese car with more than 10 years very less heard of this happen. |

QUOTE(cangkui @ Sep 5 2025, 12:54 AM) i saw the new model in the web. based on my way of owning a car, i use my car till end of loan. therefore, i will try avoid all new platform model. new model, new problem.. i want peace of mind.. a If you want to avoid new platform, the latest is the CX-X0 (30,50,60,80) series. CX-5 mostly still using the old chassis platform, but just redesign the exterior & interior. Engine wise i believe they will maintain the same old 2.0 & 2.5 engine with the add-in of new hybrid engine. |

QUOTE(ZeneticX @ Sep 8 2025, 01:30 PM) well like I said the CX5 was very outdated as a whole so not surprising that it remains on basic suspension compared to the new CRV, a more valid comparison would be against the previous gen CRV that was released on 2016 which puts it more in line with the current CX5. Mazda was slow to come out with a new gen, perhaps they are focusing on going upmarket with the RWD platforms model which ultimately ended not up to expectations. If they would've stick to their usual strategy, we should've expected a new CX5 by 2021 or 2022 instead of a facelift, which is the same period the new CRV was released in the end though (you may already realised this by now) most Mazda owners are emotional purchasers rather than practical / rational (including me lol). I would've gone for the Civic eHEV (love the powertrain) if not because of the uncomfortable seats and steering rack issues, the HRV if only it comes with the 2.0 eHEV powertrain (probably would've been too heavy for it), and the CRV was ultimately too big and out of my budget I believe the CX-50/60 actual plan is to replace those old models, but since the old model sales still good they decides to just continue facelift it.  |

QUOTE(overfloe @ Sep 29 2025, 02:23 PM) for cx-30, they have been giving rm5k discount 'unofficially' since earlier this year.. only now they make it official by slashing the selling price. Over the years they been giving discount, just they play around and some branch follow BMW/Merc tactics by registering the ride and sell cheaper. |

QUOTE(GamersFamilia @ Oct 1 2025, 07:22 PM) I've seen it today, looks cute but wonder bout the interior, is it same as crv or smaller, might go to the showroom later to look at it 🙂👀❤️ Interior confirm smaller, Mazda is not famous for interior space. They are only good for material & driving quality feel. |
