Three reasons why you should consider the 2021 Mazda CX-5
May 25 2021,
The compact SUV segment is very crowded. As a matter of fact, it is the most crowded segment in the automotive industry in Canada, and consumers therefore have a ton of options at their disposal. That said, each compact SUV has its own personality and specific areas where it stands out. The 2021 Mazda CX-5, for example, stands out in terms of its efficient performance, the driving pleasure it offers, its handling, its design, and its value, among other features.
Here are three specific reasons why the 2021 Mazda CX-5 may just be the perfect compact sport utility vehicle for you.
It’s a lot of fun on the road
A lot of Mazda CX-5 owners are people who just as much prefer driving a sporty two-door coupe, but life happens, and a two-door coupe isn’t practical enough for a young family or active lifestyle. These buyers like their CX-5 because it’s a blast to drive with sporty handling and strong performance from the base 2.5-litre SKYACTIV four-cylinder with 187 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
We mentioned earlier that the 2021 Mazda CX-5 offers “efficient” performance. Despite having more standard horsepower than many compact SUVs it competes with, the CX-5 is also one of the most fuel-efficient with an average fuel consumption rating of around 8.0 litres per 100 kilometres.
The CX-5’s SKYACTIV technology which uses a high compression ratio and an optimized exhaust among other elements manages to extract the most power possible from every drop of fuel. This means that performance goes up, but fuel consumption goes down.
We should also note that the CX-5 is offered with an even more powerful engine, a turbocharged four-cylinder that delivers 227 horsepower (250 hp with premium fuel) and 310 pound-feet of torque (320 pound-feet with premium fuel). Try as you might, you won’t find a more powerful engine in this segment.
It’s stylish and practical
The 2021 Mazda CX-5 has a sporty design that receives a lot of complements out on the road. Now, styling is subjective, sure, but practicality isn’t. With 875 litres of cargo space in the back, the 2021 Mazda CX-5 has a lot of interior space for buyers who need space. There’s more than enough space back there to fit multiple golf bags, hockey bags, IKEA bags, Costco bags, and luggage while the seats offer plenty of leg and head room.
The value it provides
Whether you are leasing, financing, or paying cash, the 2021 Mazda CX-5 is the value winner in the segment. Features like a heated steering wheel, ventilated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, dual-zone climate, leather seats, power liftgate, and more are available for less in the 2021 Mazda CX-5 than in a Toyota RAV4 or Honda CR-V or Ford Escape to name a few.
