SLIP TEST - Mazda CX-5 AWD 2014 vs Mazda CX-5 AWD 2019 -

[@4G12]

Both performed quite well for their class of vehicle, though the newer version seems better tuned overall.

[@antonfloor344]

It did Suprisingly beter then most Quattro’s

[@Harka666]

Wow, pretty decent result for the newer Mazda with TCS off.

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

Since 2017 CX-5 is equipped with "hidden" offroad mode, activated by the TCS OFF button, later on officially changed into Off-Road Traction Assist, here's our note about it: facebook.com/StacjaKontroliTrakcji/posts/893142981163889

@@4x4.tests.on.rollers nice to know, thank you.

[@wreckage-vs5jv]

2:55 why don't they just add some code like "if acceleration=0 then distribute power to wheel with spin=0" I mean it can't be that difficult detecting if the vehicle is actually moving at all.

[@ShamanXX]

you have mistake in description of the video. In the description noticed Mazda CX-5 2.5 engine (2019), but on the video (0:14) mentioned 2.0 engine. So where is the truth?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

Thanks, 2.5 is correct.

[@ShamanXX]

@@4x4.tests.on.rollers thanks, but what do you think is there any difference on rollers tests between 2.0 and 2.5 engines? or test will be the same?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

@@ShamanXX It will be the same, during this test there is not much power needed.

[@Alexdj44]

И снова-Спасибо:)

[@NoFear4XJs]

Thank You for the facts and attention to detail !

[@Alex-lw2xc]

how is this AWD from Mazda 2014 compared to AllGrip?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

If you mean All Grip Select then mechanically they are almost the same but Mazda system is much more lazy in operation.

[@ShamanXX]

i have cx-5 2023 and there is no TCS off mode but exists offroad mode than i can turn on. Do you know in offroad mode tcs will be off or not?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

Traction Control is always on cause that's the system which is braking the slipping wheels. m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid02cTMqsQLj3mKqpp47Shc6pr5YhkcbBNGsz5ZNfdmtGjteVypxarTiujG8eertqDqgl&id=419553238522868

[@rencikz]

Impressive new Mazda👍🏽

[@Bai_L]

Is there any difference in AWD hardware between these two cars? or it's just different tuning?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

Just different tuning. Not sure about diff ratios.

[@marcetadragan]

Is AWD permanent on new mazda model, or it can be switched off?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

It can't be switched off but it's also not permanent, computer decides whether to power rear axle or not.

[@Imenijebitno108]

Not everyone knkw but from 2016 mazda invented i activ awd, and it is predictive awd, it monitors everything. 27 sensor monitor wheel spin, temperature, incline, throtle and even windshield wipers. It would be cool if you could test it with wiper on.

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

@@Imenijebitno108 Wipers wouldn't affect this test. Besides Mazda changed awd programming, it's based on dynamic simulation model now.

Which Rav4?

[@valerii1803]

Hello. I have a useful desire. I believe that the same tests should be carried out, but on the mountain, because on a flat road it is very simple and almost every car can handle it. In this way, you will increase the load during the tests. But if you imagine real conditions, for example, swamp or snow, then the car will not be as easy as on dry asphalt.

[@Imenijebitno108]

Well this is just to see hlw awd system work, in off road tyres are everything.

[@TheGillederais]

​ @4x4 tests on rollers channel can you test new CX5 turbo if its available in your country. thank you.

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

Unfortunately turbo version is not available :(

[@TheGillederais]

@@4x4.tests.on.rollers with your experienced n knowledged, does extra torque n horsepower on turbo model able to improve cx5 escape quicker n easier on this roller tests assuming it has similar tune on its awd system?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

@@TheGillederais I don't think so. That could help in conditions where high torque is needed. Rollers are not demanding on this field, some low torque/engine cars are doing great in these tests.

[@jomamapusi2551]

Toyota rav4 plug in hybrid test awd please

[@Peak_22]

What kind/brand of rollers do you guys use?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

Custom made.

[@wreckage-vs5jv]

@@4x4.tests.on.rollers And rolling resistance coefficients are equal across all rollers? Just kidding. But have you ever thought about applying some sort of control to them. The common three roller fails, it'd be interesting to watch what breaking/torque would be neccessary to get the car off the rollers. A nice addition also would be the rpm from each wheel.

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

@@wreckage-vs5jv I did think about it but it's technically complicated. When it comes to rpm - we are already implementing it, check the tests of Volvo XC70 or Nissan Qashqai.

I see a lot of refinement and improvement. They just need a little bit more for me to consider it.

Who makes the best awd system?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

Thanks. There's no the best one, they are just different, designed for different purposes.

[@wreckage-vs5jv]

@@4x4.tests.on.rollers Interesting. I've read this answer before and wonder if it makes sense. Because you also often enough stated the roller test is 100 per cent objective und super real world. So how can't there be a best one? What purposes might that be?

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

@@wreckage-vs5jv Roller test is objective but I never claimed it is super real world. I claimed it is not unreal. And many times I repeat that it is not an oracle over awd system. It doesn't give any info about dynamic behaviour of the system. It shows basic operation during start-up and low speeds on varying surfaces.

[@valdius85]

I'm very impressed with the CX-8 diesel there is in my greater family. Too bad CX-5 just wasn't for me for few reasons... It's quiet and comfortable. The trunk is more usable than in CX-5. I hope Mazda will offer more utilitarian version CX-5 in the future. The CX-50 is decent, will see in real life. ;)

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

And how is Mazda doing on Japanese market? Is it serious or niche player?

[@valdius85]

@@4x4.tests.on.rollers I'd say serious for CX-5/8 class, which is fairly big class. I mean middle sized SUVs are popular in Japan. There is plenty of them. More than Hondas. Many Subaru's customers moved to Mazda - this fairytale I was told at Mazda's dealership. I'd say they in the top 5 of middle sized SUVs in Japan. They're doing better than Honda in that class :) 2020/21 was less busy because CX-5/8 are relatively old.

[@4x4.tests.on.rollers]

@@valdius85 Thank you for the info 🙂

[@krstonosac]

Good awd system.

[@MatthewTaylor3]

Doing the tests with Traction Control switched off, is not meaningful in my opinion, as the manufacturer would have recommended leaving it on for daily driving anyway. There are only specific cases where the feature needs to be disabled.

[@BartoszRybacki0]

I think the button was designed to be use exactly in special cases like this test. Special cases include: driving offroad and trying to get out of in mud or out of rollers ;). So it is good they switched off the TCS OFF for this special case.
