The 2020 Mazda CX-5 GS: before you buy

Before you sign for the CX-5

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year.

What the figures tell you

The 2.5L 4-cylinder does the work, through a 6-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Fuel use is rated 8.5 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 26 litres. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $39.54 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,400 a year for 15,000 miles.

Inside and out

The higher seat of a compact SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.

When the CX-5 makes sense

It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Rent it for a week first

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. If the CX-5 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

What it costs to run

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,400 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Year and trim

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
