Mazda CX-5 Diesel Review // Would You consider one??

We drive the Diesel since it’s introduction (in Thailand) and I think it is the best engine for the CX-5. Unfortunately i can not compare it with the 2.5 Turbo, because it is available here. I very like the torque and also the sound at full throttle. The passing power is enough for me. Our fuel economy is just above 7l/100 km. The rafted 0-100 km time is just below 10s. It seems, that the special needs for the USA have cut some of the performance.

[@diegomontoya8889]

"...they added it (Blue DEF tank) in, and it took longer." That is the understatement of the year. Mazda told me they had a SkyActiv diesel ready in 2017... It is now the 2020 Model Year. This engine is also a huge letdown, with less horsepower and torque than they originally projected and not exactly stellar fuel economy. But you do get to pay a couple thousand dollars more for it, so that's nice.

[@adamwarpinski8838]

I'd been waiting to buy a diesel-powered Mazda6 since they promised it in 2013.

[@diegomontoya8889]

@@adamwarpinski8838 I am sure you have already figured this out, but do not waste your time and money on the diesel version. For the money, the 2.5L Turbo will definitely suffice, if your heart is set on the CX-5. And as an update for me, I actually ended up getting a 2020 Subaru Outback Touring XT instead. I bought it it late February and have been happy with the purchase.

[@edweagle]

The fuel economy + the cost of trim = doa. Not sure why anyone would choose this over the base engine let alone the Rav4 Hybrid

[@anthonycbrown1952]

Because the RAV4 Hybrid does not provide AWD at highway speeds (as stated by consumer reports). In snowy, slippery weather I want all 4 wheels providing forward movement. Plus I like quiet vehicles ( the 4 cylinder in the RAV 4 is unrefined).

[@sic22l]

Because RAV4 has CVT. Also EPA notoriously underestimates diesels. This engine is much more economical than base 2.5l.

Don't get your hope up sadly - the new MX-30 which is just introduced seems like Mazda is moving towards electrics over diesels.

[@mark7067]

With emission controls, modern diesels don't last nearly as long as they once did. They don't even last as long as gas engines before needing thousands in repairs. If you want a long service life, just a simple normally aspirated gas engine.

[@LouAntonioGiordano]

Chris That’s so true lol. I have a 2012 E350 Bluetec. First thing I did after I got it was delete emissions. It’s a tank if emissions are deleted lol

Chris Any proofs and facts for your claim?

[@nukewiller4083]

@ It's not just a claim from some random person, the manufacturer's expected service life for most of these new diesels is only 150,000 miles (241,000 km). On average, that's worse than gas engines. That's because major servicing is required around that time. A major emissions system overhaul would easily total the value a 10 year old vehicle with 150,000 miles. A new aftertreatment system alone would easily cost $10,000+, and that will all but certainly need replacing at 150,000 miles if not sooner. Our own diesel needed a clean out of the DPF and EGR that costed us $1,800 at 65,000 miles. That wasn't even a replacement, it's was just a clean out. With that kind of cost, they don't expect people to keep them very long.

[@RussellRobinson77]

"Would You consider one??" Yes and no. Being a crossover kinda kills my desire. Diesel in the Mazda 6 + awd then yes! Also, it should be said that Mazda does have the new Skyactiv X engine coming out very soon which could possibly offer the best of both worlds if not just a more efficient gas motor

[@GISJIng]

A perfect review Zack. I hope your Summer is going well. Thanks for the video.

[@Bruceillest101]

Everyone is missing the point of a diesel engine. The low compression ratio helps lower emissions and extends the life of the engine. The diesel engine is designed for low end torque to help you tow stuff. This SUV is targeted for people who want to tow jet skies, small trailers and for steep hills. If you are looking for 0-60 times buy the turbo gas model.

[@BTC909]

The bet being "when will this be cancelled due to low sales". Even in the States you can only get this in the top trim.

[@glitterkittensreid5079]

What gives Mazda Canada? 10 years to wait for a mild neutered version. Would love to see the build sheet for their biturbo diesels. For a culture as we have in NA vis a vie all the Horse power crazy big trucks with ever growing power ever lessening mileage. Dodge 12V 217 hp 1997 then to 2007 Ram 5.9 CRD 320hp. Even the Little 1.6 cdi in Europe has a biturbo version with 150 hp. Would make a positive impact on the Equinox and Terrains along with the Chevy Cruze hatchbacks and sedans. All those have been discontinued as of 2020. Only the few Mercedes Benz models before the VW fiasco had the factory Biturbo 2.2 litre engines making near 200hp.

[@michaelsnow3643]

Kind of disappointed with the mileage. My wife averages 37 mpg in her 2016 X3 28d.

[@xdafactor7684]

Good Job Mazda. I would Advise Mazda to look into A hybrid Deasel Engine. I think that should put them Ahead of the Pact in Fuel Consumption, Air Quality, and power.

[@OmerTheGreatOne]

Would I consider one? NO. I think diesel need to die. It is not cheaper or cleaner. It does not match the response of hybrids, even though the total torque number might lead you to believe it. It is nose heavy, unlike hybrid where the battery can be placed separately. Hybrid is better in stop n go traffic. This car particularly is too expensive because of diesel premium. Should be offered in all trims or not offered at all. I am a Mazda fan, been a fan for a long time. I had Mazdaspeed6 before now have Mazda6. Very happy with those purchases. BUT not sure what Mazda is thinkin these days.

[@sic22l]

It actually has much better response and more importantly - feel than any hybrid. Diesel premium is much less than $4k, for some stupid reasons Mazda decided to limit this engine to one trim with all the bells and whistles and that's the real issue.

[@cheapshot7244]

I feel like the MPG isn’t sufficient enough , you’re paying $5k over the gas model for the same mpg and prices fluctuate, some months you might get diesel 30 cents cheaper and sometimes unleaded gas is 60 cents cheaper. The terrain failed due to horrible marketing but it did get you an extra 8-10 mpg improvement for the diesel. Made sense. With Mazda the only thing I’d bank on is way less depreciation for the diesel

[@nickolastiguan]

[@aaronhumphrey2009]

Makes sense as a Max MPG s hybrid. Smooth and quiet for a diesel. Pretty slow off the line without hybrid electric motors helping. 12.3 seconds to 60 isn't good enough for the hard driving American market.

[@swanblake]

The problem is the price premium for the engine and coupled with how slow it is. Just not worth it. Over 12 seconds to 100km/he is outright dangerous for passing or merging. You also,mention the potential savings on diesel fuel prices but fail to mention the cost to ass blue at everynfill up. An additional cost
