Car Profiles - Mazda CX-5

MAZDA CX-5

Leaps better than the CX-7 and added with goodies in 2013, the CX-5 is one of the compact greats. 2.0 lacks oomph for some while the 2.5 is the engine of choice. i-STOP is nice feature but the rear seats may be tight for some.

The Good: Fun to drive for an SUV
The Bad: Acceleration with 2.0

Price Range: P1,495,000-P1,685,000
Our Rating: *****
