Review: 2016 Mazda CX-5 GT AWD – Part 5
So I’ve come to the end of the review of the 2016 Mazda CX-5 GT AWD. First let me wrap up a few loose ends. At the end of my week with it I registered a more than decent 9.3 L/100KM in mixed city and highway driving, a lot of which was in rush hour traffic. Not to mention, I did use the Sport Mode a fair amount as it was kind of addicting. Considering all of that, I got pretty good fuel economy.
So, what’s the 2016 Mazda CX-5 GT AWD go for? As tested, it’s $36,995. Having said that, the CX-5 starts at $22,995 with a 155HP 2.0L engine and front wheel drive. So you can get something that fits your budget. That pricing is also in line with its competition which includes the RAV4 from Toyota, the CR-V from Honda, the Hyundai Tucson, Nissan Rogue, VW Tiguan, and Ford Escape.
If you’re looking for a compact SUV, you need to visit your local Mazda dealer and test drive the Mazda CX-5. It’s been redone for 2016 and all of the changes that Mazda made really make this compact SUV a significant player in this space. You get great fuel economy, superior handling, and lots of technology including Smart City Brake Support and SkyActiv technology. Mazda has a winner on it’s hands that I guarantee that you’ll love it if you get one. .
