I am a owner of a CX50 and i have to say the TURBO is well worth the money and then some, it makes this CUV fun to drive, the steering weight you guys talked about was revised on the 2024 CX50 built as of Nov 2023, The steering and ride feel of the CX50 is firm and responsive you get great feedback when driving it. The price you pay with this CUV is gas milage it is just ok my 2017 Tucson 1.6 Turbo was way better when it came to gas consumption. This is a beautiful CUV, TECH is great.....

Mazda has nailed it with the 2024 CX50 , in my opinion go for the turbo version,the drive quality is excellent and one can feel the power of turbo kick in when in the mode the drive quality is excellent adn the vehicle sticks to the road ruggedly even on banks, cx50 interiors are as premium as a lexus or a RDX and overall its a fantastic classy and very MANLY vehicle .. total thumbsup👍

The trouble with different trim and engine choices is you get caught comparing apples and oranges. For instance, the hybrid versus the turbo. In adventure trim, the Rav4 can tow 3,500 pounds, hybrid is 1,750, and the base engine is 1,500 pounds. Hopefully the next gen Rav4 is a worthy upgrade, this gen is a little tired. The biggest negative for me in the Rav4 are the seats, especially true if you don't get power passenger seat. Rav4 is for the masses, roomy enough so you don't have to get a bigger model. Rav4Hybrid is by far the better value, it's just an older design.
@Ricky-mo6mv4 ай бұрын
The RAV4 doesn’t have the looks to pull off the bronze wheels. Just looks awkward. Then the bigger disappointment comes once you get inside the vehicle and experience the outdated and low quality interior. CX-50 in a big way!

That was generally true over the last 5 years but because Mazda has introduced several new models recently they fell behind Toyota in 2024. (Consumer Reports) most reliable ranking. The Cx90 drug the ranking down but Toyota will like suffer too in 2025 because they've had several recalls on the Tacoma and the Grand Highlander which are both out of production now until they fix the problems with them. Thats how bad that recall was.

So the savings with the hybrid are not that significant unless you are someone who drives a ton. I drive about 20 miles a day, if you’re one of those people who own a 2024 model car and have managed to rack up 65,000 miles on it then you would benefit from this

The rear flared fenders make it a lot tougher to park than the RAV4 in narrow parking spots and narrow garages. I own both the base model RAV4 from 2020 and the 2024 Mazda CX 50 from a complete utilitarian standpoint I would take the RAV4 over the CX 50. It has more cargo space and more all wheel drive modes even in the base model and you can turn off the auto start/stop feature or (cylinder deactivation) on the RAV4. The RAV4 also has better fuel economy I get 30.5mpg on eco mode. Hands-down, the CX-50 on the interior, even the base stereo system beats the RAV4.

Mazda is also just as or more reliable. It has the same powertrain as the CX5, which is known as best in class by several publications for 10 years now. On top of that the Xtra space in the Toyota is height. So practically speaking the Mazda has just as much interior space because very rarely is anyone packing up items to the ceiling in their SUV So much so that the CX50 wouldnt also work for them. Plus if you are towing items, 1500 extra lbs is substantial. Youre not throwing 1500 lbs of xtra weight in the rear of any car. Thats ridiculous😅 Whose loading the car, Captain Marvel?
@johnsanford3596Ай бұрын

No Zoom Zoom on the CX-50? boooo. boooooooo! There are only 2 trim levels of the CX-50 that I will consider, the "Standard" and the Preferred, i.e. the two LOWEST trim levels. Why? Because I will NOT buy a vehicle with a sun/moon roof. Toyota has a similar problem. The moon roof is NOT optional once you reach certain trim levels. I wish the car makers would stop loading these cars up with so much crap gadgetry and fluff.
