My new 2024 and fourth CX5 is due to arrive any day now. We did test drive CX50 BUT found it to be less slick than the 5. Being our fourth purchase, we know the 5 rides well, is dependable with miminal maintenance costs. Our first CX5, 2015, belongs to our son and is well over 220,000 rough driveb miles. He just took ownership of the 2021 model. Our daughter has the 2017. We love the CX5!❤❤❤

[@blakespower]

what do you special order them? why it take so long? I just go to a dealer and buy a car

[@braddruehl6786]

I'd get the CX-5 because it's built in Japan and has a better rear suspension and a smoother, quieter ride. The CX-50 may be longer and wider, but it's also lower. Not a good thing if you're taller or older.

[@jm7720]

agreed i noticed that low drop at 6 foot 3. Im not sure i like being that low to the ground in the cx50. less headroom too

[@ojdtube]

CX50 has more ground clearance. Just a lower roof line intended to easily access things you might put up on roof racks

[@myNEONCITY]

@@ojdtube which means less vertical room for the occupants unfortunately

[@SohaibCorleone]

I did get my 2023 CX5 signature two months ago. I know for certain that the price on it mentioned in this vid is bullshit. The market price for a cx5 signature comes up to 44k

[@kosmokritikos9299]

I am tall and old. I have no problem whatsoever with my CX50 resulting from either condition. The torsion bar suspension on the CX50 was originally designed and utilized on tanks. It is noted for having greater reliability than an independent rear suspension. The CX50 is not made in Japan, but is made at a factory that is a collaborative partnership with Toyota. Toyota has been making cars in the U.S. for decades. Same for Honda and Subaru. Any notion that Japanese cars made in the U.S. are inferior is pure myth.

[@domenickcuccherini2847]

I have a ‘21 Touring CX-5, non-preferred , in Deep Crystal Blue Mica and I’ve owned it since new. Been a very dependable and fun vehicle to drive, even with the base engine. I’d choose it over the CX-50 because I like the independent suspension setup and the fact that it’s made in Japan. Great video!

[@FrankKusel]

Nothing beats the side profile of the CX5. Most cars just look awkward from the side. I think the CX5 still looks better than most new car designs which often feel outdated a few years later

[@bwaters698]

I don't think So the cx5 looks chopped off to me🤮

I just traded my cx30 for a cx5 after test driving the cx50 I found myself having to raise the seat height passed my liking while in the cx5 it felt a more relax driving position with a lower seat height it made it more comfortable for me . But the cx50 looks great

[@amandaaloveess]

If the CX 50 was taller, I would most definitely get it!

[@elliottkevan44]

I just purchased a 2024 CX-50 Turbo Premium after seeing it parked next to a CX-5 at the dealership. The CX- 50 just looked way better. The description my wife used was athletic. Concerning the headroom and middle seat seam issue as mentioned by some reviewers: I am 6’ 6” and there is absolutely no problem with head room. Also, I just got back from a 800 mile tour into the mountains of Tennessee and NC and the middle seam on seats is a definite non issue for me. The CX-50 ran flawlessly, and I am extremely happy with my purchase.

[@OldTimeRevolver]

I'm also 6'6" and have no problem fitting into my 2024 CX-50 Turbo Premium. Everything about this Mazda was extremely well thought out and it's a blast to drive. I have the Zircon Sand with Terracotta and get compliments all the time. Very pleased with my purchase as well.

Wonderful review! I've had 18 years good service out of my 2006 Mazda Tribute & am getting ready for a new vehicle. Now I understand the differences between the CX-5 and CX-50. It will be the CX-5 for me...I appreciate the higher driving position.

[@CarConfections]

Glad it was helpful!

[@keithridgeway985]

I test drove both in Feb 24. I couldn’t get past the discomfort of the seats on the 50. The 5’s seats were infinitely more comfortable to me, and that’s the model that I took home. Nothing else about the car matters to me if the sets aren’t comfortable.

[@jack_kasper]

Honestly I think the CX-50 has more potential. Young adults prefer versatility. Whether it’s a drive in the city, or riding the back roads for a camping trip. The design of the CX-50 is both classy and rugged. It’s a good balance. Also younger buyers love longevity. They want to buy a car, and keep it for 10-15+ years that will last and handle all circumstances. CX-50 will definitely be an upcoming model that will compete with Toyota and Honda.

[@annawilliamson4270]

While I like the rugged look and pano sunroof of the CX-50, I'd have to take the CX-5. I love the 40/20/40 split rear seat and the more luxury feel of the interior and the smoother ride.

[@sujanpatel8572]

I purchased a 2023 CX-5 Carbon edition to eventually to give to my son in a few months and get myself a more premium vehicle or an EV. I am beginning to have second thoughts now-- because I want to keep the CX-5. Absolutely love the packaging, looks, and cabin feel. It is nicely buttoned down-- transmission works well with the naturally aspirated 2.5L I4. Power is more than adequate for our purposes.

[@brooklyn560]

Tesla has been cutting prices like crazy might be cheaper than the Mazda in a few months with that tax credit

[@osint6372]

keep it and lease a Tesla to drive around town...The lease is dirt cheap on the Model 3.

[@Tbay007]

I will probably be downvoted, but EVs are ugh. As much as I want to say the "green" movement was right, it hasn't offered much availability in long car rides. Literally can gas up a car in less than 5 mins. For EVs, I have heard the fastest recharge rate is around 10 mins, which is "fine" if you don't mind waiting. On top of that, sourcing parts for a lithium battery is a nightmare. My current car is a plugin hybrid, had to wait 8 months on a replacement battery, which is unacceptable. That service center said two of their clients have been waiting a year and a half on their EV batteries. If you do go with something that is more "green" movement friendly, i would recommend a regular hybrid car. But this is all my personal experiences, I am sure other people will say they are great and life changing, but EVs are still fairly new except for Tesla. Tesla's have been having issues left and right with their cars in terms of longevity.

[@G_dan]

I test drove both of them last week. Overall, I thought the cx 5 was far much better(ride quality, cabin noise, etc) I already own a '21 cx 5, and i was considering buying a cx 50. After driving both, I'll just keep my cx 5 and wait for the cx 60.

[@pbflorance8277]

CX-90 is too big. And the transmission appears to be clunky in the first two gears. CX-60 might hit the sweet spot.

Both are great! I had a Cx 5 GT turbo for 4 years. It’s a great car. We just got a cx-50 GT fully loaded and man... It is awesome. Larger backseats, bigger trunk( cx-5 is deeper) . The 2014 model had a suspension upgrade. It’s a bit less bumpy than the cx-5 in the city( my wife loved). The only cons about the cx-50 . The Apple car and dashboard are pretty buggy. Wireless charging doesn’t work properly sometimes . In the other hand, the cx5 is more stable but more laggy. Overall are great cars with good drive handling.

[@o2G2o]

Exact same case for us - 2020 GT Turbo CX-5 to fully loaded 2024 GT Turbo CX-50. I definitely prefer the CX-50 in all aspects except I find the build quality not as good (one door lock is a bit noisy, doors don't sound as good when closing, steering wheel feels slightly cheaper). Looking at it and driving it I prefer the CX-50 by far. During the 4 years we had the CX-5 we had not ONE issue. Never opened the hood on it once except to refill wiper fluid.

[@blueviolet7389]

Test drove both yesterday - I wish they used the same suspension on the CX-50 - it just doesn’t drive as nice. The pick up on the CX-5 is also noticeably better. The interior is also more comfortable on the 5, but does feel dated compared to the 50 with the pano sunroof. Reliability wise, having owned a 5 and a 9, I lean towards the 5 being produced in Japan and having a longer track record.

[@andrewheckman394]

No matter which one you choose they drive so nice. Both have a rougher ride than some competitors but changed my tires on my cx50 after 28k and much softer ride now. Main deciding factor for me going with the cx50 was simply more comfortable for me. Arm rest on the cx5 is small and really do not like the location of cup holders. Trunk has more usable space due to its shape. Again, very personal though.

[@cjreyes2259]

What tires did you get?

[@masatookumura9861]

CX50 is just beautiful. CX5 is also cool. But I love more the unique and lagid look of 50. Anyway, thank you very much for the review!

[@tanekiagrant8479]

[@ilikechrisbrown]

Bought a CX-5 Turbo in May of this year and have loved it! I drove German cars for the previous 5 years or so, and they can't hold a candle to the quality and build of the CX-5. Premium feeling, excellent drive even at high elevation (I'm in SLC), and amazing features for the price (like cooled seats, premium sound system, etc.). After hundreds of hours of research, it's where I landed and couldn't be happier. Best car under $40k hands down.

[@Justin-yk3ox]

I came from a CX9 and downsized to a CX-50. From my perspective, I couldn't deal with the short stubby armrest on the CX5, especially for a long drive. The longer arm rest with the cup holders positioned more forward in the cabin makes the CX50 a far more comfortable ride, even with the firmer seating. You sacrifice some height in the cargo area, but gain it in usable length. Only 7" shorter than the larger CX9 with all seats folded down.

[@osint6372]

The CX5 is great...The armrest is REALLY an issue.....I dont understand why they didnt make it better

[@jmays2599]

that’s funny. being a lefty, i didnt even notice the arm rest issue. i always rest my arm on the center console.

[@spencer72567]

My choice is the CX5 which is what I currently drive. I do not like the looks of the CX50 and without an independent rear suspension it would be a deal breaker. It's too bad Mazda did not make the CX5 the size of the CX50.

[@azattadewosian2704]

Drive the CX5 two days ago, the first vehicle ran on 87 octane the second CX5 ran on 91 octane, what a difference in hp. The get up and go was something else. CX5 over CX 50 is my choice. Good job guys 👍.

[@vince7349]

In Order to get maximum output on the Turbo engine Mazda recommends 93 octane

[@willford8788]

I bought the CX-5 in black but I wanted the chrome blacked out. So while the dealer was doing that, I got a CX-50 as a loaner. I like the way they look but aside from that, I prefer mine.

Have owned 2 cx5 now driving a cx50. One reason for cx50 was tired of seeing so many cx5 hehehe now I hardly see anything like my cx50. I also feel the drive is somewhat better in cx50 as not as much hop in the rear going around a corner and hitting a bump (for example). Enjoy your reviews keep up the great work.

Fantastic comparison as always! They’re both very good cars, but the CX-5 just looks so much better to me!🎃

[@tcofield1967]

We have a 2016.5 model of the CX5 and have loved it. I bought it for my wife and both of us have never been happier with the purchase. From what I have read the new models are just as reliable as the one we have. That is something to also consider when buying a new car. My almost eight year old Mazda has had absolutely no issues, at all, during the time we have owner her. My only major complaint with the CX5 was the relative lack of power compared to V6 SUVs in the same category. The Turbo model seems to fix that and it may be as quick as my 2019 GLI now. If it was a vehicle for me I'd probably go with the CX50 but for my wife I am guessing the ride will be a bit better on bigger wheels and the overall setup of the CX5 will be better. The nice thing is that it probably won't be a real step down. We are planning to replace ol faithful next year. The CX5 is right at the top now and I haven't seen a vehicle yet that would replace it.

We just traded in a 21 Signature CX-5 for the 24 GT (Signature equivalent) So much roomier, far better stereo, bigger screen, nicer seats and a bunch of features the cx-5 was lacking. Now it feels perfect.

[@keith.loves.lasagna]

Nice review. I would not given .5 to CX-5 for larger cargo space. Technically it is larger but only due to height which is most usually not helpful. I prefer the wider and more practical width of the CX-50 cargo space. And grading the spare tire access as a point of contention seems excessive... Other words, I think it would be a tie. At least by your comparisons. I would add origin country. CX-5 is MIJ meanwhile CX-50 is MIA (albeit with a Toyota partnership). That gives CX-5 at least 1 point higher than CX-50.

[@danielpepen1815]

I like both, I have the CX-5, it's really great, but I would love to have a CX-50 too. Excellent job guys!!

[@jerrystandefer9128]

Good video! I wish you would have used different metrics for rear leg room and rear cargo area. Mazda's measurements should make the CX-5's rear seats one of the roomiest in the segment, but the reality is that CX-5 has some of the least roomy back seats. I'm not sure how they measured it, but it can't be right. We have two CX-5s in the household, one of which replaced an older CX-5, but all are the current generation. It's immediately apparent when you get into the back of the CX-50 that its back seats have more legroom. The cargo area measurements are also questionable when it comes to usability. The CX-5 has more cargo space on paper because of its higher roof, which is great if you stack cargo all the way up to the ceiling. But CX-50 has a large advantage in length of the cargo area, which most people would find more usable. I don’t know how many times I've had to fold the CX-5's rear seats down because I needed an extra 4-5 inches of space, which wouldn't be necessary in the CX-50.

[@butch8792]

They need to do the road/sound test on the exact same stretch of road and at around 75 miles an hour. I understand that it's not always possible, but the type of road surface significantly impacts results. Still a good test and I'm glad they do try and take it into consideration when most reviewers skip of this part. And everyone who's owned a car for a longer duration knows that road/wind noise can really be a deal breaker.

I prefer the look of the cx 50 plastic trim but as a 9 year owner of cx5, my trim faded right away and has been a problem with keeping it looking new despite multiple detailing treatments. I'd rather not go through that again with even more plastic on the 50! so not sure which to buy! My 2016 CX5 Grand Touring (top model) has been a great car. I'm probably going to stay Mazda but I feel like I'll get bored staying in the same model for 18 years, so I'm looking at the CX50 which I like the looks of better. Test drove the new 70 and the only good one was the plug-in hybrid, the other 2 engines were slow. The Turbo edition of the 50 was good but way worse gas mileage. The supposedly standard roof rack was crazy loud!!!! Even the dealer didn't know what was causing so much noise!

Yeah, it seems like CX-50 could have been a "trim" instead of a model, if they weren't built on different platforms. But surely they could have put different grilles and fenders (or even just different fender cladding), wheels and possibly some suspension tweaks, then a couple other features on the interior to make something more "rugged".

the cx-5 is made in japan while the cx-50 is made in the USA well I should say assembled, also it doesnt make sense that the cx-50 is more expensive in all trims, since the cx-5 has to be loaded on a ship and shipped to the USA while the cx-50 is made in the usa

We tried both we liked the 5 because it felt like you were sitting up in it compared to the 50 feeling of sitting down in it just our opinion Both are beautiful cars overall

CX-5 for me. Love my 2019 Grand Touring. Zoom-Zoom

[@Flyingstationwagon]

Bought a CX5 2024.Turbo. . Nice car. Built in Japan.

[@doax3333]

Owned both. CX-50

[@chukwunonsoegwim8966]

We need CX50 in Australia. This is so beautiful, maybe that's why they gave us CX60.

[@OrdinaryG33K-SF]

I can't understand why Mazda would put a torsion beam rear suspension in the CX-50. I don't even LIKE the 2024 CX-5 (I much prefer the design on the '21), but I would probably still choose it over the CX-50 for that reason alone.

[@imdone1967]

Because a torsion beam suspension is more durable . Less bushings and fewer parts to wear out and repair

CX5 ♥️

[@cliftonwoodland2905]

Which one is better for highway driving east cost area meaning rain snow ice heat

[@audiophanatic4331]

I own both and the CX5 is way better than the CX50. The CX50 feels cheaper in every way and not worth the price.

CX5 Made in JAPAN! 🎉

[@smith010592]

I think I’d like the CX50 with the interior of the cx30 + made in Japan. I’d buy that in a heartbeat.

[@allanzylbert1306]

Have a CX30, wonderful car, quiet, handles great

[@kencoleman8929]

CX5 with the irs, nicer features, and ride. Guess a CX50 Signature would defeat the purpose? 🤔

[@machfive916]

Very solid video.

[@youtubehub8190]

why does the new cx-5 still have the old steering wheel and the old knobs in the centre rest. ...

[@jimmy5634]

Because people like it.

[@tonyjin4284]

CX 5 is made in Japan. That's all you have to say. Go with the CX 5.

[@JayBD626]

When is the next gen of the CX5 coming? Will it be named CX6 or 7/

[@LMDAVE29]

Why is the predicted lifespan of CX-50 80,000 where CX-5 is 200,000-250,000? Is it really that much of a difference in quality or is there just not enough data on the CX-50 for it to make a good estimate. I really like the CX-50, but is the Japan built CX-5 the reason for the much larger number?

[@jjjpetersen]

Great comparison video 👍👌

[@601jess]

I’m going from a Hyundai Tucson to Mazda suv really need some ideas to go with

[@A.M.R.111]

The CX-50 is stunning

[@arthurschamne]

The extra towing capacity has me leaning toward the CX-50, plus it looks way better IMO anyway.

[@timrobb3989]

I own the Mazda, CX, five carbon edition for 2023 and I love it. But I do wish that I had the turbo version of that vehicle.
