“Sampling the Latest Automotive Delicacies!”
Owner of cx-50 turbo over a month now. All I got to say is to feed this with only premium fuel! Although regular can be used, the engine feels a bit sluggish with it. Putting in premium octane, the engine is noticeably more powerful and smoother.
I bought the non turbo version. Still very sporty and I get 29 mpg easily on the highway
think that’s what i’m gonna go with too. coming from a 2016 jetta i’m sure it won’t feel any more sluggish
Thanks for the video. I also just got the turbo premium plus and I ABSOLUTELY love it. The car has great style and nice features.
My first Mazda SUV! Awesome video bro.
Great video Mason and Drew! I'm proud of both of you two!
This, Brian!
The Mazda brand is so underrated; love me Zoom-Zoom!!
Before choosing a CX50 you should consider the following:
1. The GT’s 20” rims and standard Goodyears (Canada) cannot be considered an off-road tire. Hopefully it works in winter but you don’t have much tread depth.
2. This is no competitor to a Subaru product as there is no suspension travel, little ground clearance and a metric tonne-load of plastic under the Mazda (can you find the oil filter DIY’s)
3. Fussy interior: Beautiful sure but it marks so easily and that surface around the shifter is hard to clean and scratches easily.
4. How do you clean the heads-up display that sits in the well in the dash and do you find the display in the glass distorted or clear?
5. Don’t count on great mileage and oil change intervals seem to be more frequent.
6. Body: so many crevices to trap sand and salt over winter = early rust potential? Just wondering (had literally miles of weather strip components)
7. Rear storage: Disappointing! The problem is the roof height. If you travel with small family (4) you must consider bringing empty luggage to the dealership. You may find a CX5 works better as luggage can stand vertically back to back?Try it! Or reconsider other brands. Don’t simply rely on volume data.
8. Purchase experience: Maybe this is happening every where but freight and PDI seems greatly inflated and acting like a surcharge.
9. Ergonomics: Not bad. Glad to see some buttons but the stitching on the steering wheel isn’t smooth, spokes are awkward and grip width at the 9 and 3 position aren’t good. You might agree after 500 miles.
10. Chassis should be an inch or 2 taller to achieve a better ride and provide greater ground clearance. Isn’t this meant to be a better off-asphalt Mazda?
11. Seats. Be sure you are ok with the Mazda designed butt-floss. This is weird and should be changed mid-production. Seats are hard. Bolsters are very hard. Access and egress for taller front passengers is a pain.
12. Look hard at the CX5 before you buy the 50.
13. Outward visibility is poor due to the tall door sills and low seating position. This is greatly annoying and further, the shape of the mirror looks nice but is less functional. I recommend looking at Subaru as outward visibility is fantastic.
14. Decorative exterior panels scratch very easily.
How is the highway Road noise for passengers in rear seats in Mazda CX50 GT Non-Turbo in Canada, and in USA called CX50 Premium Plus Non-Turbo? How noise compares to Honda CRV Hybrid 2024?
For a family of 5 members, including 3 little kids, this is perfect. Well done Mazda and Car Confections. Great review.
Thank you!
@@CarConfections You are welcome.
No one seems to be addressing the glaring difference between the five and the fifty, the five has a very cramped cockpit!
I thought so too.
I’m 6’2” and fit just fine.
Absolutely agree its why I didn't buy the five
@@erbrookssame! It was terribly uncomfortable and I’m a small person.
I completely agree. I didn’t purchase it for exactly that reason. 😕
For long rides which one is better the cx-5 or cx-50?, which one is more comfortable and has the quietest cabin?
Enjoyed this one guys. One thing worth mentioning, is that outside of the CX-50/CX-5 Turbo models, there is actually one competitor with similar "fun" level & performance, & that would be the current Outback XT.
Except it’s so damn ugly.
I like the Outback but there’s nothing fun about its CVT
Outback doesn't handle anywhere near as well as the CX-50. Not even close.
@@edwink1467Exactly! I love the Onyx XT! But I can't buy anything with a CVT.
Had a chance to drive a top trim outback for a week. The interior was fantastic, sound was phenomenal…. But that cvt ruined it for me. Felt dull, had that cvt drone and tech implementation was too distracting. Really wanted to like it
Fantastic video y’all!😸
Is it Safe to say this Vehicle is Handsome and Beautiful at the same time. That is how i see it
Inside looks and feels like a BMW /love it ❤
Another delicious and thorough review. Got to love it!
Drew & Mason !!🤗👍 AWESOME !!! Review as Always ~ You Hardesty Brothers do an Amazing Job 🚗
Thanks! 👍
Good looking car but tons of that plastic cladding around the wheel wells and sides is aweful lol
Nah it’s just supposed to attract Subaru people.
It's to prevent rock chips in the fender paint. Duh.
Nice review keep up the good work
I found that start-up chime especially annoying. Is it as loud and obnoxious as it sounded in the video?
Are you?
@@anthonyfrombelow No, as a matter of fact I’m not. And that’s because I’m not an immature little douche bag. :)
@@cablebrain9691Aren't you?
@@anthonyfrombelow No, and I’m rubber, you’re glue (I felt the need to bring the conversation down to your level).
Great review, great job love Mazda. I'm looking at the turbo models is there a saving on fuel if driven conservatively and is there a probelm with that engine. Regards
Thanks! We found the fuel economy to be pretty consistent with the way we drive but I'm sure you could get more out of it by driving conservatively
Doesn't the premium plus have a heated steering wheel in the non turbo trim? How effective is the lane keeping assistance?
I test drove a signature and found it to be noisy inside. Bummer
20” or 17” wheels?
I drove cx60 in uk didn’t like it as much as cx5
A signature model? The CX 50 doesn’t come in a signature model, at least in the US🤔
I’m on about cx5 bought a get sport top spec in the uk
Yea noisier than my CX-50
Why i don't like mazda, they r sooo compressed..🥺other than that they make really good vehicles..
Does Mazda recommend or require premium unleaded fuel for the turbo engine?
Recommended not required, perfectly okay with 87/89
I sat in one and then there’s almost no room for a 6 footer except in the driver’s seat if you move it all the way down. Mazda seems fully committed to making cars with less than average space for passengers-especially with legroom. It seems to be all about design. If that’s their niche then ok.
Yea the Japanese are small people and that’s where it’s designed as you likely know. I’m 6’5” and I just bought one and my wife has a CX-5. I don’t have any issues but I may be built different than you. I have sat in many cars that I would have preferred before I selected the Mazdas, I was bumping my head or had my knees in my mouth. It sucked.
@@2004cyrus If the driver’s seat has height adjustment you can fit in a range of cars as a single occupant. Again that worked for me in this car as well. But adult or taller teen passengers are the ones who end up with the issues.
@@jpnorth3557 absolutely is a problem when those other seats don’t have height adjustment. You nailed the problem. I can’t stand the passenger seats usually. I feel your pain. I used to but trucks or the full size SUVs.
Mazda is all about the driving experience as well as their wonderful appointed interiors
I agree - I'm 5'11" and the lack of headspace in the second row is a deal breaker for me. It would have been nice if the rear seats reclined a little bit, that would have helped out with headroom.
Looking for a new SUV and have had 3 Hyundai Santa Fe's previously. I like sitting high so you can see further down the road than being in a car. I know the CX 50 sits a little lower but Does the CX 50 sit low like a car or a bit higher so you have a better view of the road?
Higher. I test drove. Currently have a Honda accord
Nice vehicle however the black cladding around the fenders and on the bottom unfortunately are going to become discolored from the sun, best to keep the vehicle in the garage, or out of the sun, as much as possible
Assumptions or facts?
Most off-road type vehicles have this to avoid rocks kicking up and dinging the paint. My Jeep had the same, however after 10 years there wasn’t much noticeable discoloration
Ok can anyone find hack to shut off the annoying door/seatbelt chime??? My tape didn’t do much 😂
Put the seat belt on before you start the engine.
Still rocking analog gauges with a hybrid lcd screen. Does it really cost the manufacture that much to make the entire instrument cluster a digital lcd display. Its not just mazda doing this
Analog display is preferred by most. Not a Mazda brand thing, it's a consumer preference.
Toyota has this on the LE, xle, xle premium and other models of the rav4 except for limited and some hybrid variants.
Prefer analog gauges to be honest
You guys never mentioned the fuel economy for your 7 day test drive. Better or worse than the sticker?
People say worse
Worse. I have 9000 kilometres including a road trip. It’s seems worse than average
The CX50 has pretty much the same cargo space as a VW golf with the seats folded even though it is 20 " longer. The CX50 does have a spare tire which is nice and accounts for some of the cargo space issue.
So a VW golf with the seats folded has the same cargo space as CX-50 with the seats not folded and you think that is a problem?
@@silimarina. He has an IQ issue.
Jeff Bezos’ house is pretty much the same size as mine except much bigger.
For the Christmas Holidays or New Years are you guy's going to drop a greatest *ACCELERATION* reaction hits video? or *BLOOPERS REEL?*
Idk maybe! Good ideas
What is the mpg on daily drive because I heard it's bad
The prices is 😮😮😮😮😮
The 50 is the “trail worthy” version of the 5 that literally no one was asking for. (And btw, the wheel set is the giveaway that the whole “rugged” thing is marketing BS.)
My Grandfather went through the Great Depression working hard labor for 11 cents an hour. Then, took 3 years off to tour Europe and hang out at the beautiful beaches of Normandy lifeguarded by the Nazis. My uncle dodged mortars and machine gun fire earning a silver star in Vietnam rescuing wounded from a rice paddy. 2023?!....OMG 😯 "hard touch plastic on my knee". Maybe one day Ken Burns will do a documentary series on the struggle. 😂
You go through the effort to cite history but forgot the part where in recent history Mazda made cars with knee padding and somehow decided to take a step backwards and stop using knee padding in this thing
@@anaveragehuman2937 The horror....
@@e.l.norton Yes, this is how the horror starts, slowly at first, then all at once.
The guy in the passenger seat is really cute
Yea that’s Mason! He’s smart too! And funny.
Auto stop /start should be OUTLAWED.. that's just freakin RIDICULOUS.. and once it begins to get some miles on it-- will CEASE to work just when you need it MOST.
6 speed TRANS is the BEST--- it isn't the FAKE crap of a CVT (which ISN"T a "real" transmission as there are NO gears- and fake change points).. The real is MUCH more responsive and lasts MUCH longer.
I watched a video where the author said the seats were not very comfortable
Different body types tend to interpret seats differently. We are on the skinnier side of things and we found them to be comfortable and supportive
There is a difference between firm and supportive and those that are plain hard. The first kind leave you feeling great after a long trip. Seats that initially feel soft and cushy often do not not.
If Mazda is smart study what is best selling car they have and continue to improve it better for the customers needs they will love to buy it instead making so many cars but not much selling! If you not a big car factory why don’t you focus on what you have best do some improvement and adjustments to the car you still lack of so you can sell more instead making more cars but no selling ?
Yea
Finally, mazda makes a roomy backseat car..... something they should have done a decade ago.
5:40 Did you guys crash someones Wedding while you were filming this???
Why would one buy CX 50 without waiting for the CX 70 ?
Cx-70 will probably be $10-15k more expensive then this also this is being marketed as more outdoorsy/adventurous lifestyle vs the Cx-70 being market as luxury alternative
You probably couldn't afford either one
It cost the same as my 2022 Sl trim Pathfinder has 3 rows and bigger more power and so on …..😮
Or crv more ROOMY but ugly designs…..Nissan build cvt engine not last long. I bought Toyota Highlander over Nissan pafindther
But then you would have to drive a Nissan 🤢
I like the Mazda cx 50, I don’t like the color lol
Lol wow that’s the first time I’ve ever read that you didn’t like something! Lmao
What does the color remind you we know what's coming out of Biden's diaper
Turbo is a must with this SUV, but after reading all the horror stories about 2.5 Turbo engine failures on CX-9 forums, I'm staying away until a confirmed fix.
What happened with the 2.5T? Was it also a problem on the CX5?
The CX-50 is more than competitive with anything in its class with the 2.5 NA. But okay!
Problems? Mazda is #1 in reliability the last few years. Above Lexus
@@ArcadianGenesis Searching online CX-9 owners report quite a few cases of Engine Long block cracking after 60k miles, they notice the problem when the coolant leaks out. Mazda even issued Bulletin # 01-013/21 (you can find online yourself), and clear shows replacement of major engine parts, and bulletin applies to all 2.5 T (CX5, CX9 & Mazda 6). Reading the detail on the bulletin, the root of the problem(according to CX 9 forum people) seems to be a major design issue on the 2.5 T ; which did not add reinforcement for the engine block parts from design for the regular 2.5.
@@buckeyefan635 My concern is on the 2.5 Turbo engine(look up Mazda bulletin # 01-013/21). I'm sure the regular 2.5 engine is a fine engine, and it is possible Mazda has fixed the 2.5 Turbo issues, but It will take a while before Mazda earn my trust.
Ride quality is really poor. Mazda should take lessons from Subaru on how to build a good off-road oriented vehicle.
This suppose to be a v6 engine
No they don’t use V6’s
But a v4 turbo still has better performance and save gas than v6?
@@romeotrinh6415 it is not a matter of performance, it is about the driving enjoyment, v6 engine's always much better in driving especially in long distance.
Front directional signals are too low. Why is the "rugged" language used all the time? Off-road enthusiasts make up about 1% of the total owners. I just don't understand this. Maybe that is why I am drawn to the CX-5. Unfortunately, this vehicle will be discontinued for the more "rugged" CX-50. Sad. Mazda would sell many CX-5s if the car was offered in a Hybrid trim. Hey, have Toyota install a Hybrid in this Mazda.
Cx5 is mazdas global bread and butter vehicle. Mazda has not mentioned yet if it's gonna be discontinued here in the USA going forward, but for now is sold alongside the cx-50. It got a major refresh in 2022. This year it got a minor refresh. Word in the pipeline is that it could be redesigned for 2024 or 2026, or could continue to sell outside the USA, while we get a new lineup of SUVs going forward (cx 30, 50, 70, and 90). The cx-30 looks also dated and could be up for a major refresh. We shall see what happens when Mazda brings hybrid to the table for cx-50 and cx-30.
RUclips is only a social media web site, it can’t answer your question, “What’s going on, RUclips?”.
I do enjoy your reviews though.
Nice car , i had the top of line turbo, but i had to give it away, the ride is so harsh , you felt as if there is no suspension system, you feel every road imperfection, and if there are potholes or rough asphalt
is torture, plus the seat is fairly stiff
too
I think it is for the stupid suspension set up
they put a, rear torsion bean( on a 40000$ car!)
so if u drive mostly on smooth highway
its decent but if drive mostly in the city
is very unconfortable
I had the 20 inch wheels
so with the 17 inch would be better
but you still have the suspension issue
so if anyone wants one they really need to test drive it on inner city roads not just hwy
the car is otherwise good , good engine, driving dynamics ,brakes, tech , interiors, mazda just ruined it with their moronic suspension set up
another thinkis the steering ,is quite hard
you need to work at it
luckly since there are no cars
i sold it in one day now i got a Alfa romeo stelvio
on 19s
the ride is a dream compared to Mazda
I bet your Alfa is going to spend a lot more time having things fixed than the Mazda would have.
I went to Mazda before Honda and others, then I bought Toyota, and I didn't like the infotainment system in Mazda.
Awe you messed up. The Rav-4 is having major problems now.
@@2004cyrus and outdated interior design
@@yournightmare9999 The interior was already outdated when the current model first appeared.
Looks cheaper than a CX-5. Why do you think that?
I think he mean the exterior plastic wheels trim the cx5 you don’t see it
Cheapest because made in usa cx50 byt cx5 made in Japan
Thats bot completely flat
please give me this car
I had two Mazdas long ago but there terrible quality of course it was when Ford owned Mazda. To pay $43,000 it to high price for Mazda even that it’s beautiful from outside.
Mazda is now up there with Honda and Toyota according to Consumer reports. Mazdas transmission and skyactiv engines last over 200k miles
Mazda and Ford days are long over... you get toyota partnership now. And no CVT in any mazda either.
beautiful car but I chose the Subaru Outback 😊
Uh Oh mistake
Subaru owners are so annoying.
@@2004cyrus that's true
Extremely disappointed with the CX-50 Turbo. Punishingly harsh ride on uneven driving surfaces. You're jarred by every bump and pothole in the street. Pronounced road noise at highway speeds. Shockingly sluggish brakes. And the steering wheel isn't uniformly round and smooth.
Was so disappointed by this vehicle, I terminated my lease early. Shame on Mazda for manufacturing such a subpar SUV.
That beeep is annoying lol
256 hp lame
That color is awful
Has to be one of the worst colours ever
Is it Safe to say this Vehicle is Handsome and Beautiful at the same time. That is how i see it
