Is the NEW 2022 Mazda CX-5 Turbo a BETTER sport SUV than a Nissan Rogue Turbo?

This Snowflake white pearl CX will definitely compliment the Miata as they sit beside each other in the garage. We pick her up tomorrow. Thanks for not only providing great information during your reviews but also entertaining us while doing it.

[@Antiorganizer]

Funny how there is a similar video by a guy working at a Nissan dealer that also pits up a CX-5 against a Rogue, and there, the Rogue comes out ahead. Puttng out some facts that's less confirmation bias driven: - Rogue has much better rear leg space and trunk space making this more family friendly. - Rogue's CVT is no longer a concern because the CVT is different and much better than before. - Rogue's Variable Compression Turbo manages to create more more than the non-turbo (either CX-5 or prior 2.5L Rogue), and uses less fuel so long as you remain light footed. - Rogue absorbs road imperfections smoother and creates for a more relaxing ride. - CX-5 with the turbo has incredible acceleration that nothing else in the segment can match. - CX-5 does not have the understeer that the Rogue has, and provides second to none handling - you feel one with the road and you can gauge how far you can push winding roads whereas with the Rogue you better just go with the flow and don't get too perky. - While the Rogue premium package provides second to none seating- feeling wise - the leather in the CX-5 is incredible high quality and probably more durable. - Infotainment works better on the Rogue. But once the music plays and you see the damn map on the screen, who cares... Anyway. The biases a sales guy comes up wiht is always funny. Omits the much better fuel economy of the Rogue. Instead fast forwards to showing how powerful the CX-5 is. And goes "ewww" with mentioning the CVT, while in fact CVT, actaully really works quite QUITE well ! FAR better than ANYONE criticizing it here!

I have come to the conclusion that the non touch screen infotainment system works well for my OCD. It's bad enough to keep the dash clean-at least I won't have fingerprints all over the infotainment screen. I've actually adapted quite well to it, and the volume knob down below is probably the best ergonomic feature of the whole system.

I've owned the machine gray turbo for about a year now and it's an excellent car. The leather heated and ventilated seats are fantastic. The entertainment system takes some getting used to, but you don't get fingerprints all over it. It's a pleasure to drive and gets decent (but not great) gas milage. It's also small enough to park in the city without being as small as a hatchback like the GTI. Also, you can put 87 octane in it to save a few bucks, but it drops the horsepower down to about 220 or so. Definitely check out the machine gray with the black rims. It's gorgeous.

[@omarcortes5754]

Very clean design. It has power enough to have some fun driving and can offer some good mpg's too.

I completely agree on the chrome window trim and rear badges, really wish they were black and it seems like everyone agrees based on the CX-5 reddit sub.

Yes, you're sacrificing MPG for driving dynamics, let me tell you this car is one of the best drivers car for the money. Especially for a SUV. I drove a stelvio ti sport 2020 and it was the best handling , driving SUV I've ever driven. I went back to my CX5 and i was blown away, this car costs half of what that car costs and it delivers 80% of the feel. The handling is spot on, I'd kill myself if I have to drive a rav4. Mazda is so underrated. The fit and finish is better than the CRV too, great video. Thanks for punching it unlike other reviewers ! TBH this car drives better than the rdx , it feels heavier and not as nimble. Steering is also numb and brakes are even spongier !

Yes imo This is better than the rouge in some ways. Though the rouge is the more “family friendly” one out of the 2 as that is more spacious. However the larger sibling the CX-50 which sells along side of this CX-5 imo is so much better with tech, and space and capability. Luxury seems equal though I lobe the styling more on that. The CX-5 seems like the “sports car” in this segment, thought I would never say that about a compact crossover in terms of handling which is what u would expect from a Mazda. I want something lather so I’ll get the CX-50. But between the 2 the rouge and this CX-5. I’m going CX-5. I btw love the lighting on this as well.

Using both won't harm the engine.

It won’t. All sport mode does is change the throttle sensitivity and hold gears longer. If you are using manual mode that second feature is negligible. So if you are using both at the same time you are just getting a more aggressive throttle map.
