@Mazdausa sent over this 2022 CX-5 Turbo for a week and I came to understand why it still is a hot contender. Simple answer: the design is timeless. The CX-5’s Kodo design language was refreshed for 2022 and even for a 6 year old car, it looks gorgeous, especially in Soul Red Crystal Metallic. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🏁 @Alllcarnews Spec Sheet: This 2.5L Turbo 4 gets 250HP and 320 lb-ft of torque (434NM) on 93 octane. Mazda has made changes to the 6-speed auto gearbox as well along with some minor chassis tweaking ft. G-Vectoring control +. 0-60 I tested in 6.8sec, same as Motortrend. 🏁 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
+The design is a stand out feature of the CX-5 and Turbo & Signature trims look a class above.

-The interior gained a larger infotainment but, while still premium inside, it is lacking compared to newer Mazda interiors found in the Premium Plus 3, CX-30 and CX-50.

+The chassis is where Mazda destroys competitors on the CX-5. Fantastic quick and perfectly weighted steering, car like driving dynamics, and tech like G-Vectoring control + are all highlights.

-While the 2.5L Turbo 4 impresses with up to 320 lb-ft of diesel like low end torque around town, fuel economy could be better. I averaged 20MPG this week daily driving.

So for $38k as tested, it still is a great, solidly built, well handling, and great looking buy. But bits here and there inside are showing their age and the competiton is fiercer than ever.
