About the Mazda CX-5
The Mazda CX-5 is a compact crossover SUV that has gained popularity in Kenya for its blend of style, practicality, and driving dynamics. Primarily available in AWD with a 5-seat configuration, it suits urban families and professionals seeking a comfortable yet capable vehicle for both city and occasional upcountry travel. The model years 2016 to 2019 are commonly found, offering a balance of modern features and affordability.
Pros
- Stylish design
- Comfortable ride
- Strong diesel economy
- Good AWD capability
- High safety ratings
Cons
- Diesel maintenance costs
- Petrol fuel consumption
- Limited rear legroom
- Infotainment quirks
- Higher initial cost
Reliability
The CX-5 is generally reliable, with the diesel engines praised for their longevity if well-maintained. However, diesel models require attentive maintenance of the DPF and turbo systems. Petrol engines are simpler and less prone to specific issues, making them a safer choice for those concerned about long-term reliability.
Maintenance
Routine maintenance is straightforward, with oil changes and regular checks being key. Diesel engines need more frequent attention to the fuel system and turbo components. Service intervals are typically every 10,000 km, and while costs are moderate, diesel-specific parts can be pricier. The automatic transmission is robust but requires periodic fluid changes to ensure longevity.
Parts availability
Parts for the CX-5 are fairly accessible in Nairobi's Kirinyaga Road and Grogan areas, with a mix of genuine and aftermarket options. Diesel-specific components might be harder to find and more expensive. Mazda's authorised service centres can provide genuine parts and handle complex repairs, though at a premium.
Fuel economy
Diesel variants, featuring engines like the 2.2L Skyactiv-D, are notably more economical, especially on highways, but can be slightly thirstier in urban traffic. The petrol models, often equipped with the 2.0L Skyactiv-G, provide smoother performance but tend to consume more fuel, particularly in stop-and-go city conditions.
What to check before buying
- DPF clogging in diesel models
- Turbocharger wear in high-mileage diesels
- Suspension bush wear
- Infotainment system glitches
- Brake pad wear
- Rear camera faults
