Why it stands out

The 2017 Mazda CX-5 stands out because it combines compact-SUV practicality with a distinctly sporty, near-premium character. Mazda’s design focus gives it a sleek exterior and a beautifully crafted interior, and the model’s appeal is rooted as much in style as in substance. It was also built to be enjoyable to drive, with responsive acceleration from its 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine and a sharp driving feel that suits buyers who want an SUV that feels more car-like than most rivals.

For 2017, the CX-5 came with front-wheel drive as standard and Mazda’s i-Activ AWD as an option, along with a six-speed manual transmission that was standard in Canada until 2019 or a six-speed automatic. The engine produced 187 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque, and Mazda’s turbocharged engine had not yet arrived for this model year. Standard equipment on the GX included 17-inch alloy wheels, a rear-view camera, air conditioning, keyless entry, push-button start, and Mazda Connect with a seven-inch touchscreen display and SMS text delivery function. That mix of equipment helps explain why the CX-5 has long been seen as well equipped for the class.

Its strengths are clear, but there are trade-offs. The CX-5 was praised for its stylish design, smooth ride, and excellent reliability, and owners often liked its comfortable handling and fuel economy on long trips. At the same time, some drivers wanted more power and cargo space, which is worth keeping in mind if practicality is the top priority.
