2025 Mazda CX-5 G35 Akera review
The turbocharged engine in the CX-5 Akera brings a bit more life to Mazda's popular mid-size SUV, but it probably isn't the best choice.

2025 Mazda CX-5 review
The CX-5 remains an old faithful for Aussie buyers, and the G35 Akera is a punchy and luxurious flagship – if a little dated and thirsty now.

2024 Mazda CX-5 G25 Touring review
The mid-spec Mazda CX-5 G25 Touring AWD has been given a mild spruik for 2024 but it's not necessarily the pick of the range.

2024 Mazda CX-5 review
The current Mazda CX-5 is getting a little long in the tooth now, but its zesty turbo-petrol engine is addictive enough to forget that.

2022 Mazda CX-5 GT SP 2.5T AWD review
The CX-5 GT SP is Mazda's take on the ubiquitous 'black pack' design treatment with a few extra goodies thrown in – but is the flagship Akera a better bet?

2022 Mazda CX-5 review
The Mazda CX-5 mid-sized SUV has been refined again. The latest update improves on a good thing, especially at the top end.

2021 Mazda CX-5 Touring review
Does the mid-spec Touring trim with all-paw diesel motivation make for a well-balanced and evenly tempered variant in the CX-5 stable?

2021 Mazda CX-5 GT SP review
Want a mid-sized SUV that's actually powerful and fun-to-drive? The Mazda CX-5 GT SP fits the bill, at least when you opt for the turbo.

2021 Mazda CX-5 review
A few updates ensure Mazda's top-of-the-range CX-5 grade keeps up with the Joneses. It still feels a notch above many more utilitarian competitors., but there are trade-offs.

The Mazda CX-5 has been relegated to second spot on the SUV sales charts lately, but in many areas it's still a cut above most competitors.
