Why Buy a Pre-Owned Mazda CX-5 Over a Honda CR-V

If you’re in the market for an SUV, you may be torn between buying a pre-owned Mazda CX-5 and a Honda CR-V. Both vehicles have many advantages to offer, but there are some key differences that make the Mazda CX-5 the better choice. Let’s break down why buying the Mazda CX-5 is the right choice for your needs.


Interior Features and Design

The interior of a Mazda CX-5 is designed to be both attractive and comfortable, with soft leather upholstery in the top trims, plenty of legroom, and enough cargo space for all your family’s needs. It also features a 10.25” infotainment display with access to SiriusXM satellite radio, navigation, as well as Bluetooth audio streaming and hands-free calling. The Honda CR-V has similar interior features but lacks some of the features offered in the CX-5.


Performance and Safety Features

The Mazda CX-5 is powered by a 2.5L Skyactiv G four-cylinder engine that produces 187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque. It also comes with Mazda’s i-ACTIV AWD system, which provides better traction and handling in all types of road conditions. The Honda CR-V has a 1.5L turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 190 horsepower, but its all-wheel-drive system is not as advanced as the CX-5’s.


In terms of safety features, the Mazda CX-5 comes equipped with a suite of advanced driver-assistance systems, including adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and more. The Honda CR-V also has some similar safety features but lacks some of the features offered in the CX-5.


Value and Reliability

In terms of value, the Mazda CX-5 is the clear winner. It provides more interior space than the Honda CR-V, better performance, and a host of advanced safety features at an affordable price. Although the Honda CR-V has a lower initial cost, it's missing some of the advantages provided by the Mazda CX-5.


Finally, when it comes to reliability, the Mazda CX-5 has consistently scored higher than the Honda CR-V in customer satisfaction surveys. This is likely due to its robust construction and dependable performance. Overall, buying a pre-owned Mazda CX-5 is the better value of the two SUVs and is sure to provide years of reliable service.


For those looking for an SUV that offers superior interior features, performance, safety, and value, the Mazda CX-5 is the clear choice. With its robust construction and dependable performance, it's sure to serve you well for years to come. So if you're in the market for an SUV, consider a pre-owned Mazda CX-5 - you won't regret it.
