There is a reason Mazda is getting some love in the reliability department. I purchased a 2023 Mazda CX-30 new, and the quality of the fit and finish as well as overall driving experience has been superb.
@jimpowell22967 күн бұрын
I have owned both and I think the Mazda is better. Here is why. 1. Driving the Mazda is really fun. 2. The Mazda handles really well, sticks to the road. Drive one and see. 3. The interior is Lexus quality, real wood on the top models. High quality leather seats with high quality stitching. The steering wheel also is high quality stitching. 4. The Ultra, direct injection High-Compression Engines for great performance and very good fuel economy. The styling, I know that is subjective but I prefer the lines of the Mazda. 6. The transmission is a very smooth and reliable 6 speed. I own a 2014 Mazda3 which is approaching 100,000 miles. I will never get rid of this vehicle. Also I own a 2019 CX-5 which is turbo charged, so when you need the pop to pass someone you have it. It is the Signature model, fully loaded. I have had no problems with either vehicle. Regular maintenance is something I was taught by my father so I have always done that.

The VW golf transmission broke down after 5 years 2 month; i.e. 2 months after warranty expired so I have to pay for the repair; not to mention numerous problems during warranty and I have to bring the car back for maintenance. After that numerous breakdown including electrical, cooling system, you name it. So in 2020 I had enough and brought a Subaru XV (crosstrek in NA). Have been driving that for over 4 years now, other than scheduled maintenance and normal wear and tear, I never have any problem with the car. I swear I will never buy a German made car ever again.

The suspension and the front axles are still running smooth My suspension is fantastic, The only thing that went out on my car was the air conditioning pump, other than that I have no complaints. it's got t-tops the interior is still in top condition I cruise anywhere from 70 to 89 mi on the freeway it's got five speed transmission, so that's my experience with my 2005 Toyota Corolla.

@ Mitsubishi’s aren’t readily available in our area. We’d have a 3 hour drive one way to get to a dealer. Mitsubishi was recently bought by Renault and when Nissan was bought by Renault in the early 2000s, Nissan’s quality Tanked. Furthermore we live 30 miles from the city (5 miles from town) up in the mountains of north central Washington state USA. Our road is private so we have to plow the 5-7 feet of snow and maintain our road by ourselves. An AWD system has to be great just to get up our road and into our garage. The AWD system on my wife’s Outback is one of the best and she still has to put her Outback into X mode just to get up our road and her Outback can go places that my Rav couldn’t. Heck, in the winter I have to put my Tacoma TRD into 4WD just to get up our road if we’ve been gone all day and it’s been snowing and I haven’t been able to plow our road.

SUBARU engines usually develop coolant leaks from underside of the head. it is the FIRST THING a trading dealer will look at. Hard to work on too. Mazda NOW are mostly TOO TECHO and not easily serviced. TOO MUCH TO GO WRONG! MANY HONDA cars here have disappeared but same year TOYOTA's are still running on the roads. HONDA BRAKES are good but need frequent COSTLY REPLACEMENT. HONDA COST MORE TO SERVICE. Lexus are too costly. If you can by an AUTO and NOT A CVT you are in front for a start.

My opinion about the new Subaru off road vehicle(s) is the fact that I am told that no manual transmission is available. CV "transmissions" are nothing I care to have in any vehicle. My opinion only.

Subaru has head gasket issues because they redesigned the engine. That was very reliable. Then you have their wonderful transformation. No thanks.

There is 1 vehicle that is better in my opinion. I have owned both Toyota’s and Mazda’s and the Mazda is better in my opinion. They are more fun to drive, handle better and have like Toyota, great engines. The SkyActiv engine is ultra high-compression, direct injection. Which means you get more power and better fuel economy. I have a 2014 Mazda3 with almost 100,000 miles and a 2019 CX-5 Signature model with only 60,000 miles. The CX-5 is s fully loaded model. Have had not a single problem with either one. I have no plans to ever get rid of either vehicle. Both the CX-5 Mazda and the RAV-4 Toyota have received 5 star overall safety ratings. The Mazda3 has received 5 out of 5 stars safety ratings also.

At least here in Europe Mazda & Subaru are a mixed bag. Subaru has had a lot of engine issues, Mazdas tend to rust very badly and there mechanicals are not that sound in some cases. Lexus is an upscale Toyota so no point comparing it to Toyota. Honda WAS great in terms of reliability, not so much anymore.Japanese cars are no longer the dependable workhorses they used to be, but definitely better than European and US rubbish. Nissan once great got destroyed by Renault back in 1999 when they formed that crappy Alliance

I have two Mazdas, one a 2014 one a 2019. Both solid. No problems with either vehicle at all.

Toyota has major equity positions in both Subaru and Mazda. The Camry a few years back was manufactured in the Subaru Indiana plant, and the new Mazda CX-50 is manufactured in the Toyota plant in Alabama. They’re relatives-not competitors.

So, you say you're going to tell us about 4 brands that are better than Toyota and you give us Lexus, Toyota's Luxury Division, Mazda, of which Toyota owns 20%, Subaru, of which Toyota owns 5% and has been collaborating with for about 5 years, and Honda, which everyone knows is another rock solid brand. I feel like I just watched a video on 3 oceans that are warmer than the Arctic Ocean.

That's only 3 cars I think. Isn't Lexus made by Toyota? Also, I love Subarus but they leak alot of everything.....Head Gaskets, Valve cover gaskets, several places on the 2.5 motor that leak, plus oil pan and now my transmission fluid is leaking so bad that I have to add fluid every time I want to go somewhere and I only have 220,000 miles on my impreza! Engine still runs good though!

In the Netherlands Mazda CX60 is a disaster. many issues, possibly due to PHEV. Watch any car journalist evaluating the CX 60 and you will hear this story. It is a pity since their solid name was really affected by it.
