Used 2023 Mazda CX-5 2.5 S Preferred for Sale in

Netcong, NJ

So quiet and so well-engineered. Love the interior design so much. The smooth acceleration is a wonderful selling point. As a woman who is 5'5", the car fits me perfectly.The Bose sound system and the power liftgate are particular favorites.

I wish there was a wireless charging capability for my cell phone. There are no little nooks built into the rear cargo space and I wish the cargo space was just a bit larger by a few inches. I have twice experienced an instance where the transmission did not shift smoothly but instead gave a huge jerk. This causes me great concern. I wish I didn't have to move the seat forward every time I get in it, and instead it would stay where I left it.

It’s comfortable, quiet, sleek, has a lot of room leg wise. Heated seats are great, the a/c cools off super fast. I love having the app for remote lock/start. Blind spot monitoring is super useful. It’s easy to get in and out of. Apple car play is great. I like the storage in the console too

The automatic braking feature is great, however sometimes when you don’t need to brake, like the vehicle in front of you is turning and you have plenty of room, it will still brake you. The bass in the stereo system could be a bit better, sound system could be louder overall. I wish the infotainment screen was touch screen. The air/heat buttons could be better placed or knobs so I don’t have to look away from the road when turning the output up and down.

I like that the vehicle is compact and all the bells and whistles were included without paying extra, such as AWD. That is an extra price on some of the other vehicles.

The acceleration is poor. It is a little hesitant when you try to get a little speed going.
