Why it stands out

The 2017 Mazda CX-5 stands out because it blends compact-SUV practicality with a distinctly sporty, near-premium character. Mazda’s second-generation design gave it a sleeker, more striking look outside and a more stylish, beautifully crafted cabin inside, while preserving the brand’s reputation for enjoyable handling. It is also notable for offering a 2.5-litre four-cylinder Skyactiv engine with 187 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque, paired with either a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission, with front-wheel drive standard and Mazda’s i-Activ AWD available.

What makes this model especially appealing is how well equipped it is for the class. The GX trim includes 17-inch alloy wheels, a rear-view camera, air conditioning, LED headlights, keyless entry, push-button start, and a Mazda Connect infotainment system with a seven-inch touchscreen display and SMS text delivery function. Higher trims add comforts such as heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, leather seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, navigation, and a 10-speaker Bose stereo system. Mazda also added a 2.5-litre turbocharged engine in 2020, but for the 2017 model year the CX-5’s appeal rests on its sharp design, strong standard equipment, and driving feel.

There are a few trade-offs to keep in mind. The CX-5 has a reputation for being less practical than some rivals, and owners have noted engine, windshield, brake, and infotainment issues in this generation. Even so, it remains a compelling choice for buyers who want a compact SUV that feels more polished and more engaging than most of its peers.
