Why Choose a 2024 Mazda CX-5 over a Toyota RAV4?

January 10 2024,

Why Choose a 2024 Mazda CX-5 over a Toyota RAV4?

If you are looking for a new compact SUV, you have surely noticed the wide selection of models that is offered to you in this extremely competitive market segment. In order to stand out, vehicles in this category need to have distinct advantages, of which the 2024 Mazda CX-5 has many. Here are a few of the reasons why you should choose a CX-5 over the Toyota RAV4:

A more elegant design

The 2024 Mazda CX-5 distinguishes itself through a sophisticated design and aesthetics that showcase Mazda's commitment to elegance and modernity. Embodying Mazda's signature Kodo design language, the CX-5 boasts sleek lines and a dynamic profile. The result is an exterior that not only captures attention but also exudes a level of sophistication that surpasses the 2024 Toyota RAV4 and equals some models from premium brands. While the RAV4 is not a bad-looking SUV, the CX-5's design places a greater emphasis on creating a visually striking and refined presence on the road.

A refined interior

Inside the cabin, the 2024 Mazda CX-5 continues to shine with its premium interior craftsmanship. Mazda has paid meticulous attention to detail, utilizing high-quality materials throughout. The result is a luxurious and well-appointed interior that elevates the overall driving experience. In comparison, the 2024 Toyota RAV4, while offering practicality, may not achieve the same level of interior refinement and attention to detail as the CX-5. The CX-5's interior stands out for those who appreciate a blend of comfort and sophistication in their SUV. In addition, the CX-5 benefits from more comfortable redesigned front seats which were added during its latest refresh.

More fun to drive

Mazda's commitment to delivering an engaging driving experience is exemplified by the 2024 CX-5's use of SKYACTIV technology. This technology not only enhances performance but also ensures fuel efficiency. The CX-5's driving dynamics, characterized by responsive handling and a thrilling ride, set it apart from the 2024 Toyota RAV4. Indeed, the CX-5's focus on providing a spirited drive makes it a more appealing choice for those who enjoy being behind the wheel.

In addition, the 2024 CX-5, as well as all of the Mazda SUVs, comes standard with the i-Activ all-wheel drive system, unlike the Toyota RAV4, which helps it provide better foul-weather driving capabilities.

Advanced technologies

In the realm of technology and infotainment, the 2024 Mazda CX-5 incorporates cutting-edge features that enhance both convenience and entertainment. The infotainment system is intuitive, offering seamless smartphone integration and premium audio options. This technological feature positions the CX-5 as a leader in its class, surpassing the offerings of the 2024 Toyota RAV4. While both vehicles provide modern amenities, the CX-5's emphasis on advanced technology creates a more connected and enjoyable driving experience for tech-savvy consumers.

Keeping you safe

Safety is a paramount concern for Mazda, evident in the comprehensive i-ACTIVSENSE safety suite featured in the 2024 Mazda CX-5. This suite includes advanced driver-assistance features such as adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and automatic emergency braking. While both the 2024 Mazda CX-5 and the Toyota RAV4 have received the Top Safety Pick award from the IIHS, the CX-5 adds another layer of driver confidence with its standard all-wheel drive and more nimble handling.


In conclusion, the 2024 Mazda CX-5 stands out as a superior choice over the 2024 Toyota RAV4 in various aspects, including design, interior craftsmanship, driving dynamics, technology, and safety. These advantages collectively contribute to the CX-5's appeal, making it a compelling option for individuals seeking a premium and well-rounded SUV experience.
