I enjoy the way this car looks. I have always enjoyed owning Mazda. I always get black paint. This car performs well, except when the air conditioner is on, it needs a little more boost. I was able to add a roof rack to it to help with more space. I like the heat/ air conditioning system. It is dual, so it allows my husband and I to have different temperatures at one time. I also enjoy the heated seats, which is very helpful in the winter.

My Mazda CX-5 is a sleek-looking crossover SUV, with plenty of comfort to spare. The back is accessed through a hatchback, and there is a lot of space to accommodate luggage, musical instruments, animals, or anything else. It handles nicely, and I get the feel that I am driving a smaller vehicle, because it hugs the road so nicely. I leased this car because I play the harp, and need to transport my instrument. Otherwise, I would have gone with a smaller vehicle. The only drawbacks are the fuel economy. It could be better. At 23.5 miles per gallon, I would like to see it be more economical. The menu through which you must access the radio, clock, phone, and other things, is needlessly complicated and distracting. I would like to see this changed. Other than that, I would encourage my friends to buy this car. It is very reliable.
