one big reason for the quality and fit and finish is the stories behind the Mazda. It is produced, designed, engineered 100% in Hiroshima Japan. Toyota is outsourced and made here in the states with many countries contributing towards it. The Mazda is the clear winner here and Toyota has gone the wrong direction over the past 10 years or so because they are fighting for that top global sales position against the VW group and they have Audi and Porsche at their disposal. Mazda doesn't care about that badge, they really just want to make vehicles that they would be proud to drive. Mazda is a winner in all aspects.

Toyota obviously has a stellar reputation. The problem is when you are toying between both the Mazda steals your heart with the style and design. So I went for the Mazda thinking it is designed and built in Japan, a real plus to me. Also if they put that much attention to detail with the design and style they must have put the same effort in the transmission, engine and the other functioning aspects that drive the car. In Japan it is total commitment to quality it's not halfway. They obviously have put a lot of effort in innovation with the Skyactive engine and transmission. So I smell commitment to innovation and excellence. My fingers are crossed but as we all know there are no sure things in life.

Give me many reasons why? Let's start with the suspension turning ratios, compression rations, transmission response time, starting price, awd system, 0-60, skid ABS control, torque, intake CFM, Entertainment System, controller feed back quality response, interior quality, how easy is it to maintain the vehicle, how fast brakes work, how well the handling is, what type of piston design, head Port design, valve train design, compare these to the trash RAV4 that does not improve in nothing. And the most beautiful thing about skyactiv GDI engines is that Mazda figured out a way to use 87 octane instead of 91 or higher octane. Gdi's are supposed to take high octane fuels. Not with Mazda due to their Hemi Pistons. Skyactiv engines are getting so good that they don't even have to use spark plugs on their gas engines. The high compression ratios make the skyactiv motor run up to 70 miles per gallon that's way better than a damn Prius or hybrid rav4. Whats bad ass about the Mazda company is that they done something that Toyota would have never figure out. And that was the rotory engine. They already have a skyactive rotary. What's scary is that a stock skyactiv rotary produced a higher output power and speed then a GTR. Put that rotary in a cx5. Mazda! because the Mazda company is coming to power. I have high hopes in Mazda and the rotory

Brian P - I bought the RAV4 after owning 9 Toyotas, I figured Toyota knew what they were doing by then. Also, I test drove the Rav4 in temps under 30° thinking the stiff ride and hard seats were from the cold weather, NOPE. In addition, a clunky infotainment / bluetooth system and rattle filled interior body integrity doesn't show itself right away. Toyota built a reliable motor and transmission in the 2013 RAV4, thumbs up there. The rest of it, from the body paint to the interior body integrity are lower quality. In the last year, I've test drove and researched SUV's all over the spectrum: Volvo, Acura, Honda, Nissan, BMW, VW, Audi, Jeep and Lexus. Mazda is building GREAT cars. No longer under the Ford umbrella, Mazda is completely made in Japan, like Toyota used to be. Only speaking of the new CX-5 vs. a RAV4, the Mazda kicks it's ass.

godfatherNYC I don't know where this reliability thing is coming from. In Ontario Canada mazda has Unlimited milage warranty for 5 years. I commute 89km 1 way to work daily (178km daily) so I bought the cx5 (2016) to have that piece of mind for 5 years. I can drive it all I want. I also had a friend that bought that cx5 and it wasn't for him (his family is tall, like almost 7' tall so his son didn't have enough room in the back) and ended up buying a 3 row pathfinder but he got a lot of his money back on the mazda (had 40,000km on it) because the Nissan dealer knew it had unlimited milage warranty and there was still 4 years of warranty left. The dealer told him the warranty is most of the reason that value retained so well. The next owner still has 4 years of worry free driving. Personally I also bought the extra warranty so all my electronics are covered as well and rentals are covered if work takes a while. I had a check engine code come up and it was just an update but I brought it in. They couldn't look at it that day so I left in a rental, picked my car up the next day with a smile and handshake.

Does mazda only offer unlimited milage warranty in Canada? It was a huge factor when I bought my 2016 cx5. Also that joystick to control the infotainment is the best. I forget it's a touch screen which is good because I don't have finger prints all over the screen. Plus it's so easy to control with the joystick, even on rougher side roads. Only complaint is that the maps could be more updated, in my area there is a subdivision where a golf course used to be, it's been there for 5 years, map still says it's a golf course but that's TomToms business. When buying I looked at RAV4 and rouge. I felt with RAV4 it was way more money and rouge just felt cheap (it was the cheapest) sure rouge has panoramic sunroof but the rest is meh. I got the mazda GS with Nav for less than base RAV4 with just a backup cam. That means I got sunroof, rims, nav, blind spot monitors, rear cross traffic detection, auto lights, auto wipers, fog lamps, unlimited milage warranty, mazda roadside assistance, exhaust tips and push button start (that I can remember) for less than a regular turn key RAV4 with hub caps and just a backup camera with not other safety feature. I know the new 2017 have the assisted braking but so does cx5 apart from Base model (GS) but you truly don't know how nice blind spot monitors are until it's raining heavily and the guy in the right lane has 1 barely working headlight and a black car. Seeing that light on in the mirror confirms that he's there whereas my eyes are giving me a little doubt.

I don't know, I guess it it up to each person, I have a 2016 Rav4 SE and I have a family member who has the Mazda CX5, both are good and reliable vehicles, for me, I like the Rav4 better, although the CX5 is more luxury then the Rav, the Rav gives more fun to drive, plus, with the largest cargo space in it's class, helps with hauling all the things you need to. Price, the 37k for the Rav they are showing, is just not needed, you can get the SE or the limited, which will have all the things the Platinum has for a few thousands less, and still compare to the Mazda. Again, bottom line, it comes down to the person looking at the vehicle, better resale value, more cargo space, the Rav wins in my book. As for apple car play or Android Auto, Toyota has the Entune app, gives you all Android auto gives you and more

I liked the looks of the CX-5 we drove but the Rav4 Hybrid drivetrain got better mpg and had better acceleration, as well as awd.

I do wish Mazda made a hybrid or better yet, a PHEV.

Good review. Hard to keep any enthusiasm for the Toyota. It is clearly dated.

What have people paid for a 2020 Mazda CX five signature I really like the look of the car and considering buying one but I would love to know the Out the door price that people are paying for these vehicles, I don’t like the idea of a four cylinder and I don’t like turbo chargers it’s just one more thing that can go wrong

Kind of an unfair review... the Mazda’s newer than the rav4 so its automatically gonna have better things

The mazda looks gorgeous and has a more premium interior , the toyota has better reputation and bigger space BUT omg IT DOES LOOK UGLY AND DATED!!!! , if you are a family guy that just wants a reliable transportation from A to B i guess that is only when the Toyota makes some sense, period.

The best RAV4 is the old RAV4 from the 90's. other than that, the cx-5 is far superior.

6ixtynine Toyota RAV4 is reliable well Toyota period and that’s why many people buy them as you can see from the high price tag it’s honestly ridiculous however it is very popular amongst any other midsize SUVs on the market today and Toyota Will continue to sell the Rav4 regardless of whatever new or sexy suv may pop up! I still see first generation two current generation RAV4 on the road today so that says a lot however it wouldn’t hurt to totally redesign it as they did with the 2018 Camry or they newly small suv I can’t think of the name

Mazda needs more power.
@conan9007 жыл бұрын
Yes, they all need more power. Never enough power, but Mazda manages it well and the CX-5 so much more fun to drive than any other model in this segment. Steering and handling are spot on.
@adamstratton78087 жыл бұрын
conan900: mine adjusted to my driving styles shortly after purchase. in not sure that it really needs more power as the car almost learns how I drive and gives me what I need when I need it. What he said about the shifting not being responsive and not shifting correctly is only because it takes a little time to lean my style after narrowing down over 100 variables to just 3. I think this is a very important thing to mention because it can be a deterant to those who test drive it. this is hands down the best vehicle I've ever purchased. I believe there is a turbo diesel coming next year and Android auto confirmed too, I can just bring mine in to add the feature via service. love this vehicle. I test drive the Toyota and it was a joke, oh, try to find the traction control button in it. Toyota is not what it use to be. its the Japanese version of Ford.
