2019 Mazda CX-5 Signature | Blurring The Luxury Line

For 2019 the Mazda CX-5 has improvements all the way around ranging from new GTR and Signature trim levels, enhanced chassis, powertrain, and interior materials. This CX-5 turbo provides more power than you need and a very smooth transmission on top of that. The Mazda CX-5 blurrs the line between luxury and mainstream with this top of the line Signature turbo trim. The only features you might wish for in this class that are missing include a foot activated liftgate and panoramic roof. Overall, the CX-5 is almost perfect but loses in the practicality department due to smaller cargo space and interior storage...but not by a lot.

[@StevenMWilliams0317]

I waited until they came out with the signature series and bought it recently. I am 100% satisfied with this car and really enjoy the driving experience. Some things Mazda need to add/update: 1. Proper TPM system to display tire pressures, 2. Cup holders and system control knob should be switched as they are awkward if you have a water bottle, 3. Door arm rest is too narrow, 4. The parking brake is set to automatically turn on when you turn off the car, 5. Remote start, 6. Foot activate the trunk release, 7. Hydraulic hood supports, 8. Ambient lighting is very weak, 9. Improve the Apple Car Plan connection speed (takes about 2 minutes sometimes), finally, 10. Passenger seat memory settings. These are minor points, but, would really up their game to a different level. I enjoyed one comment where someone priced a BMW X3 with same options and it cost $19K more. Keep up the good work on the videos and in spite of my criticism here, I love this care so much. Thanks again.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Thanks for all the input Steve! I have the same complaints as you and it’s great to hear from an owner. Enjoy your CX-5! 👍

[@tigerfan8244]

I’ve always been a fan of the CX-5. I drove a first gen model for a while and my sister still has her first gen. Mazda hit a home run with the 2nd gen and addressed most of the shortcomings I think. I wish it was a little roomier and the cargo area was a bit larger. I would give up a little driving dynamics for a panoramic roof though, especially in the Signature. The interior is beautiful and I agree with other’s that say it rivals the small luxury SUV’s. Overall, I feel it’s the best looking and most premium of all the compact SUV’s. If I were looking to buy, it would be between this and the Forester. I would take this over the BMW, Mercedes, Audi compact SUV’s as well. I think it looks just as premium as they do for less money and a lot more reliable. Great review!

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Thank you as always! I agree with your points..as usual too lol. They did a good job and I think it deserves more attention from consumers!

we hired a Mazda 6 2 years ago in NZ and I liked it enough to consider Mazda as our next vehicle supplier. We considered it time to replace our nearly 10 year old Subaru Outback 3.6R Premium but the CX5 hadn't the power to compare with the Subaru till this turbo model came out. We now have the new CX5 turbo Akera (=Signature in north America) standing outside my house with 5 kms on the clock. So July will be a great month to really explore the car's strong points

[@kurtgrundel4045]

You had a great idea here and I hope you might consider this in all your reviews. A dusk or night time shot of the front and rear lighting is something I've never seen in reviews before. I would also like to see the dashboard and possibly the interior with its night lighting. That would be awesome and unique to any reviewers I've watch. Go from great to complete!

[@mssmiley5691]

I’ve had my 2020 CX-5 Grand Touring for a week - what an amazing car! You are right, the breaks do feel a bit soft, but the terrific handling totally makes up for that. I chose the Mazda over the Honda CRV because of headroom. I’m 5’ 9’ and I literally felt claustrophobic in the CRV! Deal breaker for me.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Awesome to hear, enjoy it 😁👍

[@robertdevoy3119]

I have the Signature trim and it has so much torque that 6 speeds is plenty. This trans is a durable and proven design and I would rather have it than have a new unproven trans with 8 or more speeds. I bought it because it's powerful, fun to drive and has enough versatility and storage for a single guy like me. I priced out a 2019 BMW X3 with the exact same content and the price was $19,000 more. The BMW has an 8 speed trans and perhaps a better nav. Neither is very important to me. As far as the nav goes I don't need the latest and the greatest. I just want it to help get me to my destination. While the Beemer does get better highway gas mileage, but it requires premium fuel which eliminates the benefit.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

That’s very true...the torque and smoothness is excellent. That’s wild that it cost so much more but I believe it. Mazda did great with the CX-5. Thanks for watching!

[@oldtimer3824]

Robert Devoy Sig looks great, is the drivers seat comfortable for some over 6 feet tall?

[@robertdevoy3119]

@@oldtimer3824 I'm 5'8" and of course I have plenty of legroom, but I sit fairly close to the wheel, high, and upright. Even with the sunroof I have about 5 inches of headroom. I suppose it could be a bit of a challenge for someone 6'2" or more depending on how much you like to recline the back. I think with the seat cushion at it's lowest position most tall people will find it to be comfortable. However, before exiting I do lower the seat to the lowest position to keep from hitting my head the next time I get in. I then use the seat memory to restore my favored seating position.

[@kurtgrundel4045]

Robert Devoy I agree exactly. I priced it out the same and BMW has poor dealer support and distance between agencies. I also matched up similar equipment on Acura MDX. A fun to drive car as well but not for the $10k more. Mazda has more reliability ratings than those two.

[@stephenhendricks103]

Of the various models in which Mazda deploys its turbo4 the CX-5 is probably the most appropriate. It also works well in the Mazda6 but the competition from the Accord's 2.0L turbo and the Toyota V6 is much tougher in that category. And in the CX-9 the turbo4 is up against V6 competition from virtually every midsize crossover except the Subaru Ascent. Considering that the CX-9 is among the largest vehicle in its class, that's a significant deficit. The turbo4 in the CX-5 gives it a significant advantage over its competition in terms of performance. But that advantage comes at a price, of course. Driven conservatively, the fuel economy isn't bad. But take advantage of its performance and you'll pay for it at the pump. The weakness of the CX-5 is the "U" in a "utility" vehicle. It's nowhere near as cramped compared to the competition as the CX-9 but the CX-5 isn't just "slightly smaller" in terms of cargo space. The Honda CR-V provides about 25% (!) more cargo space than the CX-5's 59.6 cubic feet. It fares better against some other rivals but the CX-5 still offers less overall cargo space than any other compact crossover. That may not be a problem for those who want the look of a crossover but don't need the space a "utility" vehicle typically promises. And the CX-5's Signature trim is undeniably attractive. So it comes down to a battle between looks and functionality.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Excellent points and very well said! I agree I. The turbo pairing with the Cx-5 being the most optimal. And the cargo space....if only they could give us more of that utility without sacrificing too much design. Maybe they’ll do that next redesign..who knows. Anyways thanks for writing and thanks for watching! 😁👍

[@stephenhendricks103]

​@@PrimeAutotainment Could be but I doubt it for a couple of reasons. First, the distinctive overall design of all three vehicles (CX-9, CX-5, and Mazda 6) results from an extremely long distance from the A pillar to the front bumper combined with the ratio of that distance to the rest of the vehicle. It's a design trick that automotive designers have used for nearly a century to suggest a vehicle's potency and performance, factors appealing to consumers, especially male consumers. Second, the vehicles' relatively large (and long) engine compartments result from the massive exhaust manifold located behind the engine. That, in turn, is necessary for Mazda to achieve the turbo4's diesel-like low end torque rather than the typical peaky torque curve of a turbo engine. At 199" long CX-9 is already among the longest midsize crossover. Providing more interior space would be difficult without adding significantly to that overall length. The CX-5 could be extended to improve interior space but that would mean turning the CX-5 into the CX-7, a "tweener" size crossover that Mazda already sells in non-North American markets.

Hey Nolan, Great Review on this very pretty CX-5. You mention old days in the winter with small inclines and up hill starts. Man oh man with everyone in my area of Massachusetts living in the second most hilliest city in the world next to SF. I remember so many cars and trucks sliding back down or through intersections. We didn’t have radial tires and a lot of people couldn’t afford Snow tires. But you know what? It didn;t stop anyone from going out doing their thing. We didn;t have this “PANIC” we have to day when the 4 letter word is mentioned. And today we have at least Front Wheel Drive and mostly 4WD on the sport utes and people stay home and everything closes now. So different. Today our super market will be mobbed as we are expecting 4-8 inches this afternoon and night. I need to shop for the restaurant and I won;t be able to get in and out with out fighting mobs of people and parking so far away. It’s media that scares these people to death. “Don’t go out unless you absolutely have to” “good day to take off from work” All the schools in the area are already closed for a storm starting at 2pm. The build up of the storm on the media for a week in advance gets people scared. My favorite is a few times we had nothing happen at all and everything was closed for nothing. Lol

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Haha man exactly! It’s crazy how it goes and you couldn’t be more spot in with the media. Same story here even if there’s a slight chance. You guys get it way worse than us but I had no idea it was that hilly there. Thanks for stopping by and hope you got your groceries 😁!

I think storage is ok, but I would still take the storage of the Rav for practicality reasons. I also like that Apple Carplay has been added. Overall, I still think this a sporty suv and I applaud Mazda for the goal. However, for me, practicality wins over sportiness for me, and for that reason my money remains with Toyota.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I know what you mean! I agree too and would like more practicality of it. Btw I’ve got an unconventional Rav4 video coming out this week. Not a full review but something like it 😉

[@kurtgrundel4045]

I have those gimmicky fog lights on my car and I don't know what they did for those tiny lenses but they cut a wide swath of lower light in fog and snow. I was surprised. They are more than a gimmick and will certainly add to future styling of cars. Cargo volume the Toyota does win. Practicality is a bit more dicy. I like the 40-20-40 seats as I can carry 4 passengers and some long items. I particularly like the cargo cover attached to the rear hatch in the Mazda.

[@22Kevi]

Thanks for the reply, Kurt G. It's always nice to hear from an owner when it comes to these things. If the fog lights are serving their intended purpose then that's great. I'm certainly not taking anything away from the CX as I was almost a buyer of it myself, but having been a Toyota owner for almost 4yrs now, I'm finding myself hard-pressed to leave it over simple sportiness and stylish lights alone.

I haven’t actually driven the non turbo engine. This isn’t a super sporty engine...it’s quick but doesn’t make it feel like a race car. I would honestly probably go with the non turbo to save money and gas because that engine seems to still be adequate

[@oldtimer3824]

Counterpoint, if you enjoy hp and torque the turbo is mandatory. Since I’m long in the tooth, I ask myself if not now when?

[@zeroman614]

Wow, that backup resolution is inexcusable.

[@robertdevoy3119]

As long as it keeps me from hitting the car behind me....who cares.

[@kadircanakbulut1371]

Mazda best car 👍

[@yahairaromo7970]

Can you tell me what you guys think about a CX-5 with no AWD? (Mazda didn't release AWD with the Signature in Mexico)

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I’ve never driven the FWD only model, but unless you encounter slippery situations, you’ll hardly know the difference. The AWD is FWD biased so it’s primarily a FWD vehicle anyways, unless it needs to power rear wheels for added traction. Plus...you’ll get better efficiency with FWD 🙃

[@omgitsme435]

They upgraded the Backup camera in the new Mazda 3, so hopefully next year it'll come to the CX5 and replace that god awful one.

[@sass1420]

I suspect, given the 2019 3 is not even out yet, that once we have it out for 6 months to a year, and the bugs, if any, are worked out of the infotainment system, it will rapidly spread across the model lineup and almost every review seems to mention the current system as a big weakness

[@20796mayur]

is the interior colour brown or black? it looks black to me....

[@PrimeAutotainment]

It’s a really dark brown...an interesting color. Has a dark grayish tone to it also. Without much lighting it looks close to black

[@aussie8114]

Agree that the seats are hard to sit on.

[@ericshutter5305]

Want that 2.5T Signature ... BUT ... NOT available in Europe... Crazy Mazda Europe.... ALL the competition HAVE high-powered versions here. Why are we FORCED to buy a non-Mazda????

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Ahhh that stinks! I didn’t know that, bummer!

[@andreatuckman1084]

I wish SOMEONE would review this vehicle without turbo and all wheel drive

[@PrimeAutotainment]

If you search you can find non turbo models. This is just what they gave me..

[@A12Diary]

19:27 How was it comparing with cars with suspension like Avalon?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

The Avalon smoothed our bumps better and overall felt softer and a bit more planted. The CX-5 still feels really well planted, especially with handling. It’s ok for softness and ride comfort, but not great. Certainly not bad either though. It doesn’t allow big stuff to really get rough like some vehicles but you can “feel” the bumps and imperfections a little more

[@jvandepitte]

If you want your videos to be of informative value for other countries than Liberia, Myanmar and U.S.A., you could add metric translations in subtitles when giving dimensions... ;-)

[@dimapya5120]

does it have a tire pressure sensor?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Yes it does 👍

[@johnmckenna4256]

Great job on this review

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Thank you very much!

[@JimboJones99]

We need more Lemon Pledge

[@fredsolis8621]

The guys talked about the car understeering. This is 100% because of the dedicated snow tires. Snow tires are junk for steering response and overall handling. Not a good tire to review the car's driving capabilities.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

This one has All-season tires standard here in the US. I saw the early test videos in Canada where they had snow tires..but not this. I honestly thought it handled very well

[@almacobbs4523]

I really loved the Mazda CX-5 2019, however not roomy in back seat

[@kbw.rvwhntr]

That will quickly change with the CX 9

[@HybridClydeEntertainment]

well it is a compact suv!

[@Kevin-ui1iu]

Great car. Hooooorrrrrrrible dealer service department.

[@candycrusher45]

Hello, are you going to be reviewing the 2019 Forester (top trim)?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

As of right now I don’t have access to Subaru but I’m hoping to soon! 😁

[@lgsprings5623]

The start/stop technology was a deal breaker for me. Having to disable it every time I take a trip would become too annoying

[@buchajo]

That's not on my '18 CX5 Touring. I would never buy a vehicle with that 'feature'.

[@sahanagiri518]

Mazda the best

[@MajorGlory79]

Folding of the mirrors is not new. I got it on my 2018.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Are you in the US? Mazda says the power folding mirrors are new for ‘19. Manual fold was available before though

[@MajorGlory79]

Sorry mate, I am in Asia. But in Australia and Asia they come with auto folding mirrors. @@PrimeAutotainment

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Ok cool well that’s awesome that you guys have them! Thanks for writing in though, are you happy with your Mazda?

[@2nmingo]

sounds like the grand tour is the middle ground

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Yep that’s correct! Reserve and signature are higher trim levels now

[@robdenaro4215]

You say "compact spare tyre". Does that mean that it doesn't have a full size spare? By the way, it's not a Marrrzda. It's a Mazda.

[@walter777smith6]

Is too small interior much smaller then CRV. I wish this one would be longer at least 5,6 inches

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Yeah CRV is hard to beat with space and practicality!

[@tr7287]

Fix the front end and add hybrid version and it has my money.

[@JimmyCee123]

I’m still torn Rav 4 limited or CX5. Mazda is faster and more stylish but no panoramic. Ugh

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I like both choices! I haven’t been able to spend as much time with the new Rav4 yet. But good luck with your decision!

Купил себе такую!

[@GuestYouTubeUser]

I’ve been in Audi’s, BMW’s, Mercedes, Cadillac etc. I can honestly say. Mazda drives and feels more premium than those vehicles. Except for the display software. BMW wins that. Better software, resolution display, and Bluetooth Apple Car Play!!

[@PrimeAutotainment]

At 0:43 $39k

[@notwhistlingdiesel]

the exterior is nice, but mazda still needs to step up there game, example: hondas look a lot nicer, and for this outrages price you can get a lexus nx, which in my opinion looks buckets better than this here car

[@kurtgrundel4045]

Styling is quite a personal choice. Comfort and ride is more analytical . The NX is smaller on the inside, doesn't handle as well and equipped to match is still $10K more than the Signature. For some reason Lexus thinks safety is an option. The Toyota brand is now bringing it to standard equipment without ordering the leather upholstery but not Toyota Lexus. Very odd.

[@notwhistlingdiesel]

hmmm, idk where you heard that obvious lie, cause the what it is, lexus, standard features, blind spot monitoring, forward collision assist, rear cross traffic assist, Vader cruise control@@kurtgrundel4045

[@kurtgrundel4045]

true, forward collision and radar cruise control are standard but the blind spot monitoring and rear cross traffic is an option. Please refer to the Toyota Lexus website. Auto dimming rearview mirror, leathers seats, Homelink and automatic wipers are an option on the Lexus yet standard on the Signature. Start adding those in and the price excels well beyond the Signature. Not a lie. Maybe reading could improve your information as well as your spelling.@@notwhistlingdiesel

[@notwhistlingdiesel]

hmmm, spelling? that was auto correct, @@kurtgrundel4045

[@mrsj1417]

With that Tonka Toy Truck dashboard, noisy ride and so-so reliability? No thanks.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Yeah the dashboard is definitely unique and a love or hate lol. Thanks for watching!

[@ConnecticutDashcam]

Interesting view point, but the dash design is fantastic in that it is uncluttered, unlike the competition. As far as noise, it is the quietest in the class so there’s that! And Mazda just passed out Honda in reliability ratings (if that tells you anything)

[@dianeclemmons9860]

Rather boring exterior.
