Before you sign for the CX-5

Owners filed 148 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine, power train and unknown or other; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

The numbers in plain words

The powertrain to know here is the 2.5L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

The combined figure, 8.5 L/100 km, means roughly 26 litres for 300 km. In energy, every 100 km costs about $13.18 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,400 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

What the CX-5 is like

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

Good uses for the CX-5

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

Try before you buy

A week with the CX-5 answers more than any brochure. Rent the CX-5 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

Money matters

The EPA estimates US$2,400 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.18 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $131.80 at our price setting.

Narrowing it down

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
