Mazda CX-8 2020 review: Sport petrol

[@arisarastuart]

Just bought one. Delivery in 3 weeks.

[@benkenstein1978]

What is the feedback on the car?

[@sany56-m9o]

Lucky

[@rupertfdr350]

I only have one gripe about the CX8 There's no airvents at the 3rd row. Everything else is spot on. Great vid again ❤

Rupert FDR We using the 6 version with middle console here in hot Thailand and the 3rd row passenger never complained about the ventilation. It seems working...

[@afcgeo882]

Same as the CX9.

[@freddiestarratemyham]

Great simple ,fun ,informative review, well done🙌

[@jamskof]

im sorry, are you her producer?

[@jordanscarreviews6164]

I love Mazda’s.

[@craigpodsprojames2500]

Jordan’s Car Reviews same

[@mills3375]

They’re good but a bit overrated

[@jackievids6516]

I love how it's got robbery Bob soundtrack

[@gregburville3368]

Don't forget to use your indicators when turning right @6.00.

[@RamjetX]

If they're not going to stop for red lights, it's unlikely they need indicators...

[@jamskof]

this is australia, australians seem to think they can indicate the second they change lanes. they dont seem to understand poor little guys

[@dominickwilliams3504]

Mazda plays games. the cx8 should be in NAmerica. the cx30 wheelbase needs 4more inches and rear overhang 3inches added, roof height increase by 2inches,

[@indrabendi3300]

Best in itu class

[@realjohnboxall]

Love Sydney, hate those concrete squre patch roads.

[@sammyt3514]

Never knew there was a Mazda slotted between the CX-5 and the CX-9! The review is lacking though; no mention of the horsepower, transmission details, ride quality, NVH levels, among other things!

[@rayleeaustralia]

SammyT ha... yes, good to know the eight sits in between a nine and a five. I wonder where the seven sits

[@sammyt3514]

Don't wonder; it's right below the eight. You're welcome.

[@jasonyu6649]

Raymond Lee there is none CX-7 any longer

[@andrewmihaleff]

Can help you there. Same atmo engine as the SP25 and CX5 - 141kW and 252 Nm of torque. Uses a 6 speed auto - if my wife's Mazda3 is anything to go by, it will be ok, albeit a little heavier obviously. Reviews suggest NVH is very good, possibly better than the CX9 (which I have driven and it's a lovely drive, no real noise at all)

[@Mububban23]

This particular reviewer focuses on simplified family-centric reviews. Other nuts an bolts reviews are available from different presenters. My wife appreciates this style of reviews, whereas I appreciate the more in-depth details 🙂

[@dearhallmark2]

I simply don't get which customer group this CX-8 petrol is targeting which the CX-9 is not?

[@petron1954]

I agree. Has the length of the CX-9 and the width of the CX-5. Not really different at all. A bit like the size difference between the CX-3 and CX-30.

Peter Paynting The CX-30 is quite larger than the CX-3.

The CX-9 is quite larger, especially wider than the CX-8 which can be a problem in some areas, like tight parking lots. We wanted to upgrade from the CX-5 to the CX-9. But the CX-9 is not available in Thailand. I am very happy with the CX-8. It has a lot of space and is very comfortable. The CX-8 is more a raised waggon or estate than a SUV.

[@petron1954]

@ Not really when you overlay the CX-3 profile over the CX-30

[@jasonyu6649]

It’s for the money-pinching peeps who wants a 7 seater but doesn’t mind it being a 5+2, if the market has got CX9 available. For those that hasn’t got CX9, such as Japan, that’s the only 7-seater for them.

[@tronghuoa1437]

Mazda lines up are too confusing and worst they are all looked the same. Honda and Toyota lines up are a bit confusing too but at least none are looked the same.

[@deet4895]

Confusing for people with a small brain I guess.

[@pamohaus]

Just a quick question, does 2nd row seats lay flat like last (3rd) row to have full boot available?? Re cx 8 sports

[@mahindawickramarathna4066]

Yes

[@jamskof]

no

[@victorr.cortes2323]

So great!! So Wonderfull!!!

[@jamskof]

such a fake comment!

[@dshiningsword2427]

Hmmm..... I bought Mitsubishi Outlander in 2017, FWD 7 seater driveway price $28,600 including extra's like floor mats, window weather visors, premium neoprene seat covers and Outlander is more spacious in all three rows still bigger boot space also has more SUV body style so extra $12,000 seems to be not justify even though I like Mazda....

[@Rally4Life1982]

We bought a 2019 Ford Escape Ambiente with 150km on the clock for $23700 (ex dealer). We had a Mazda 2 and it was unreliable so I was very reluctant to buy another Mazda. I can't say that about the Mondeo we sold, that was solid.

[@CumBrianFries]

Mazda makes some very good cars, however, I can see how their sales have been gradually going down each year. It's due to the idiots in charge at Mazda making bad business decisions, one after another. While they do make good cars they also tend to force their ways onto the consumers and never listen to their customers' inputs. For example, most folks wanted an infotainment touch screen but Mazda decided to go with a dial knob, citing less driving distraction (yeah right!). And most folks in North America would want a compact SUV roughly the size of the Mazda CX-4 but they decided not to import that model over. Instead, we get the horrendous looking CX-30 and the stunted CX-3! It doesn't matter how good your products are if you don't listen to the customers and adapt your company is going to die!

[@mamabear314]

nice

[@Rally4Life1982]

You definitely can't argue with the price. The 2.5 Turbo would be better in this though.

[@justme2222dj]

love your vids but are people even buying cars atm?

[@robissonwillard7266]

Nice ❣️

[@iMitsubishiZA]

This is a nice car, but that out dated media system and instrument cluster make it feel much older than its rivals

[@wax333]

i dont get what mazda is doing here. pretty sure the cx9 is the same price if you wanted petrol. vehicle is very similar.

[@phillipmarnik]

The CX9 is too wide for Japan so they stretched the CX5 as it is narrower.

[@petron1954]

@@phillipmarnik And the CX-9 would be the better car in my opinion.

[@82bing]

@@petron1954 I see you've commented in slot of these comments, the CX9 is alot bigger and has a much higher price range. This is perfect for the young family and people who don't want a massive car while saving probably the price of a modest family holiday. Let me guess, you bought a car you could brag about, but really wanted one of these. This IS the better car for me out of the 2.

[@petron1954]

@@82bing Actually I do not have a car at the moment. I have a Subaru Outback on order as it is the better car for me and my purposes.

[@82bing]

@@petron1954 ahh nice car Subaru, bit smaller than the CX8 and a little more dearer but would be better for a rural lifestyle. Good choice.

[@user-vr1so9hd1g]

Зачётная тачка

[@ivanau8727]

How does this compare with HONDA CRV?

[@jamesdennis8133]

No DRL? And as far as not being able to use the touch screen when not in park makes no sense, what about if the front seat passenger wanted to use it???

[@deet4895]

That feature can be hacked out the system if one doesn't like it, I have a 2015 Mazda 6 GT and the feature have been removed so it responds to my touches at any speed, it's better that way.

[@jasonyu6649]

This is the entry level model, DRL is definitely a plus here.

[@toxicbananaz8422]

Kinda looks like a Mazda cx9

[@nzautoreview7829]

What is the real fuel consumption?cheers

[@user-eg9hc5uv7t]

良い

[@petron1954]

Still has that ugly looking satellite navigation system stuck on top of the dashboard like an afterthought. Just like all the other Mazda's. Puts me of buying another Mazda.

[@MiguelLopez-fh7vx]

What???? I’ve never heard of this car

[@phillipmarnik]

It is a stretched CX5 that can seat 7.

[@Rally4Life1982]

It doesn't look right from the side. I'm not going to say its ugly, but its not my cup of tea. The new Mazda look is a tad wannabe.

[@mendistudio]

I agree. It looks proportionally unbalanced, and I’m a big Mazda design fan.

[@vicftotam3600]

Sorry Kia Sorento are much much betterrrrrrs ;)

[@michaelallen3918]

All of the Mazda SUV range looks so similar that it's become boring. Nice enough car, but prefer Hyundai / Kia styling, even Toyota Rav4 is a good looking car... Yes I know it's not in this category, but the stylists at Toyota are getting it together... Sadly I think Mazda is not.

[@petron1954]

You mean they are improving "BORING" at Toyota.

[@michaelallen3918]

@@petron1954 yeah I guess so, a lot less of the white goods on wheels like they used to be..
