The 2016 Mazda CX-5: before you buy

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2016 Mazda CX-5 for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Before you buy the 2016 Mazda CX-5, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

What to check on the CX-5

Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Owners filed 510 complaints with NHTSA, most often about exterior lighting, electrical system and service brakes; have those parts checked. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

Specs, explained

Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder; drive: front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

By the EPA's combined rating of 8.1 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 24 litres. Expect about $12.56 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Who rents the CX-5

It suits winter trips and weekends with more gear than people. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Inside and out

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

Drive it on your own roads

Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. A week with the CX-5 answers more than any brochure.

Which one to look for

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Within the 2016 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

Money matters

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.56 in fuel. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
