With impressive road manners and looks to match, the 2023 Mazda CX-5 is as at home on the open road as it is in the city, available in both 2WD and AWD variants, across six model grades &#8211; Maxx, Maxx Sport, Touring, GT, GT SP, and the flagship Akera.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Launched in 2012, we\u2019ve been loving the Mazda CX-5 for over 10 years now, and it&#8217;s easy to see why this seriously stylish car has become an Aussie favourite.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To call out the Mazda CX-5\u2019s key features, we absolutely love its;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Exceptional fuel efficiency with \u2018mild-hybrid\u2019 technology<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wide range of model and engine variants<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Striking design and top-tier performance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Infotainment and safety features<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Availability in both 2WD and AWD<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mazda CX-5 shares its class with other popular mid-size SUVs including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbar.com.au\/cars\/subscribe\/toyota\/rav4\">Toyota RAV 4<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbar.com.au\/cars\/subscribe\/honda\/cr-v\">Honda CR-V<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbar.com.au\/cars\/subscribe\/hyundai\">Hyundai Tucson<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbar.com.au\/cars\/subscribe\/nissan\/x-trail\">Nissan X-Trail<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbar.com.au\/cars\/subscribe\/subaru\/suv\">Subaru Forester<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_We_Love\"><\/span><strong>What We Love <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The CX-5&#8217;s standout features include impressive fuel efficiency, striking design, and a driving experience that sets it apart. With over 23,000 Australians choosing the CX-5 in 2023, it&#8217;s clear that its stylish looks and exceptional performance make it a top contender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the absence of a hybrid option, the \u2018mild-hybrid\u2019 tech involved in the CX-5\u2019s Skyactiv-G engine makes for exceptional fuel efficiency coupled with top-tier performance. Packed with infotainment and safety features, the CX-5 boasts a 2.0L SV-T petrol engine in its G20 Maxx base model (giving 115kW\/200Nm), all the way through to a 2.5L Turbo Skyactiv-G petrol engine (170kW\/420Nm) in the G35 GT SP, or a 2.2L Skyactiv-D diesel engine (140kW\/450Nm) in the top-of-the-range D35 Akera. With over a dozen model and engine variants in between, there\u2019s a CX-5 for every preference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Model History <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Launched in 2012, the Mazda CX-5 has consistently been a top-selling SUV for over 10 years. In early 2023, the CX-5 surpassed the Toyota RAV-4 as the overall stop-seller in the medium SUV segment, before finishing the year as the 4th top-selling SUV.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mazda_CX-5_Costs\"><\/span><strong>Mazda CX-5: Costs <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2024 Mazda CX-5 has an enticing starting price of $39,590 (including on-road costs) for the base model Mazda CX-5 G20 Maxx FWD, right up to $55,000 (including on-road costs) for the top-of-the-range Mazda CX-5 G35 Akera 4WD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If financing or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbar.com.au\/buying-a-car\/buying-a-new-car\">buying a car outright<\/a>, you\u2019ll need to factor in additional running costs including insurance, registration, servicing, and other maintenance costs. The baseline 2024 Mazda CX-5 costs approximately <a href=\"https:\/\/www-cdn.rac.com.au\/-\/media\/files\/rac-website\/car-and-motoring\/running-costs\/car-running-costs-2023-ebook.pdf?modified=20230914033736\">$145 per week<\/a> in standing costs &#8211; insurance, registration and maintenance (excluding charging). The good news? Typically, Mazda vehicles hold their value and depreciate at a lower rate than other Asian and European-built vehicles, so you\u2019ll end up with a good amount of cash back in your pocket if you ever decide to sell your vehicle (assuming you own it). Finally, before buying, make sure you consider all <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbar.com.au\/blog\/what-are-the-hidden-costs-of-buying-a-car\/\">the hidden costs of running a car<\/a><strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mazda_CX-5_Finance\"><\/span><strong>Mazda CX-5: Finance <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For most of us, it\u2019s definitely preferred to either <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbar.com.au\/blog\/to-lease-or-to-finance-which-is-right-for-you\/\">lease or finance<\/a> over buying the car outright. Both help to break down the overall cost that buying a new vehicle can involve &#8211; and when it comes to your options, it\u2019s all about making the choice that\u2019s right for you, right now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re looking to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbar.com.au\/car-finance\">finance your new car<\/a>, you can expect to pay the price of the vehicle plus interest (usually ranging between 6% and 20%, depending on your individual circumstances). This means that the top-of-the-range Mazda CX-5 G35 Akera 4WD priced at $55,000 today, financed over 5 years at 9.5% interest (with no \u2018balloon\u2019 or residual payment), will set you back approximately $266 a week (plus fees), or $69,154 over the course of your loan (ex. government fees and charges). See how it all adds up?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Smart Financing Choices: Transparent Car Loans<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With most banks and lending institutions, you\u2019ll also need to consider added monthly lender, broker, and \u2018break\u2019 fees if you want to pay off your loan early. These can add up to thousands of dollars extra, depending on your lender and finance terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to financing, that\u2019s why it\u2019s a great idea to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carbar.com.au\/blog\/car-loans\">consider all of your options<\/a>. Online car loan comparison platforms like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carclarity.com.au\/\">CarClarity<\/a> can help you find the finance arrangement that works best for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mazda_CX-5_Subscription\"><\/span><strong> Mazda CX-5: Subscription<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve covered the usual options when it comes to car ownership, but the good news is that there\u2019s one more.
