Mazda’s popular SUV has undergone a few styling modifications over the course of 2017, including thinner, more discrete headlights and taillights. The G-Vectoring Control system is now standard on all versions. Available in three trim levels, the CX-5 offers two engines including a 2.5L four cylinder paired with an automatic gearbox. All-wheel drive is also available as an option. The GT comes standard with a panoramic sunroof and 19-inch wheels.

Cons
- Underwhelming 2.0L engine

- Nothing good to say about the navigation system
