If youre into MPG and keeping your car for a long time, def check out the RAV4 Hybrid. More of an “appliance” feel imo when driving but depends on what your main requirements are.

The RAV4 Prime Hybrid can also be used to go up to 42 miles on electric power if that works for you, meaning you may never need to pay for gas again lol.

Talk to your local dealership. The one near me had 0.9% finance rates for all turbo models of the CX-5. Huge!

You could wait for the next CX-5 redesign. Not 100%, but it might be revamped in a year.

I tried driving the CX-50 and the ride quality is much stiffer than the CX-5. CX-5 felt fantastic.

Just some thoughts.

I had a light blue Mazda Demio in Japan. I loved it. Fit in super super well with the rest of the boxy cars, making it actually one if the sleeker cars on the road hahaha.
