Car financing: silver 2025 Mazda CX-5 GT in Yameri

Thinking of buying the 2025 Mazda CX-5 GT?

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2025 Mazda CX-5 GT; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Here is the 2025 Mazda CX-5 GT for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

What to check on the CX-5

NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. NHTSA has 28 owner complaints on file, mostly about service brakes, forward collision avoidance and engine. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

The figures, translated

Power: the 2.5L 4-cylinder; drive: four-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Four-wheel drive helps on rough ground and deep snow; on dry roads it behaves like any other vehicle.

The EPA rates it at 8.9 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 27 litres. In energy, every 100 km costs about $13.80 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Practical details

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

Who it is for

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Drive it on your own roads

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Drive the CX-5 on your commute before you commit to it. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.

Money matters

The EPA estimates US$2,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $138 at our price setting. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Which one to look for

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
