New Crossover SUV in San Juan Capistrano, CA

Excellent Handling

Handling is the Mazda wheelhouse. Each and every Mazda vehicle handles better than anything in its price range. The 2020 Mazda CX-5 fits nicely into this tradition. The CX-5 steering is responsive and pleasantly weighty. But that would mean nothing if the handling couldn’t keep up. Whether you have the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine or the turbocharged version, the CX-5 is sharp and poised. It handles hairpin turns as effortlessly as it does putzing around a parking lot looking for a spot. Above all, the CX-5 is fun to drive. The RAV4 just can’t compare.

Upscale Cabin

The 2020 RAV4 isn’t bad. It doesn’t feel poorly made, but it certainly won’t wow you. The CX-5, on the other hand, will certainly surprise. At its price point, few would expect it to be as refined as it is. It looks clean, showing a sense of restraint and class that's absent from all but luxury vehicles. At higher trim levels, the CX-5 is almost identical to a luxury vehicle, with premium leather, wood accents, and the like all over the cabin. The CX-5 gets the details right.
