I own a 2016 CX-5 and am still discovering more features built into this great car.

And this video is so helpful since I want my next car to be this!! Please make more CX 5 news and videos please!! Especially about the awaited facelift for the CX 5 🤩

Thanks Jon, this was very helpful

I don't live in Alabama, but Johnathan was the main reason why I decided to pulled the trigger on a 2021 CX5 GTR. I have no complaints and his reviews explaining the car has been on point!! You rock my brother and continue your great work. We all appreciate it big time!! Ant from NYC

Absolutely beautiful. It makes Toyotas and Hondas look amateurish. Is it a Mazda or an Audi? You have to look at the badge to be sure! Good luck with your sales. I appreciate your enthusiasm.

Wow. You know Mazda. Love the details you give on how everything works.

Thank you Jonathan for all your great and informative videos about the CX-5! Thanks to your videos, we are now the very happy owners of new 2021 CX-5 Grand Touring, with the Premium package. Very fun and responsive car to drive.... perfect for our needs!I had a hip replacement surgery two weeks after purchase so, for the time being, my wife is the only one driving it. Can’t wait to get cleared to drive again!

Very useful and informative and the CX-5 is a vehicle I'm cross-shopping right now.

Just came across this video and it is very informative. I have the 2021 CX-5, Signature model in the awesome red and love it. I’ve subscribed and look forward to more of your videos.

Very beautiful and informative video. Thanks a lot.

I love my 2023 Soul Red CX-5 select, still learning the new features from my previous Sport CX-5. The fit & finish is very nice. The Soul Red is beautiful. Thanks for your very informative videos. Loved your sons' comments about the Mazda that you did a video on.

Bought my 2021 CX5 Grand Touring Reserve (and we bought the Navigation chip) a month ago. It’s easier to view your vlogs than read the book. I’m learning more about my car here than I ever thought I would. Thanks.

My wife purchased the 2022 CX-5 Signature about 2 weeks ago in that beautiful red color. We are still working on the learning curve and enjoying this ride. Thank you for the information and demonstration Jonathan. Greetings from the Sooner State……🏈

My local dealer doesn't know this, but although you are half a country away, you sold me on the Mazda CX-5. I've also learned more about the vehicle and even taught my dealer a thing or two that you showed me. I LOVE my CX-5!

Big fan here from up in Prince Edward Island, Canada. Was at my local dealer this morning and he had two 2021.5 Signatures on the lot. Small price increase ($600 Cdn), but we finally get the 10.25” screen and newer software that you guys have had for a while. Looks like we lost the wireless Apple CarPlay connectivity with this upgrade, but I can’t wait to go visit the dealer when they’re open and take a look at this new screen! Mazda Canada put out a press release about a month ago, where they announced the new screen, and also mentioned that coming in the fall would be the Mazda Connected Services, which would allow remote starting, among other things, from an app for the CX-5 and CX-9. Good times ahead!

I'm into my third CX-5. I love it. Fully loaded with all of the goodies. Dayuum is it quick! All of the things that you have mentioned was never conveyed to me by the dealer. Thanks for an eye opener!

Grat video, couple of things I didn't know since buying my 2021 CX-5 Touring back in May. I knew the was some sort of radar, didn't know about the emblem, and the grill shutters blew my mind!

Great informative video! I’ve had a 2021 CX-5 Signature for a year and a half. Love it! Especially the turbocharged engine, the 360 degree camera, and the ventilated seats. The car has so many features, I’m still learning about stuff it can do. This video taught me a few things I was unaware of. Thanks!

Great review 👏 Jonathan.

Thanks Johnathan! This video saves so many hours I would've had to spend perusing through the Owner's Manual.

Thanks. I've had my 2021 CX9 for a few months and still learning stuff. Live in TN now but used to live in Enterprise.

Great suv CX5 2021 for Boston, Miami and Colombia… cool video …. U own me test drive dude..

I already own a 2021 CX-5 GT and yet watch all your videos. I guess they continue to confirm I bought the right vehicle. Love your videos and your intro can’t be beat. 👍 You have a fan in the Twin Cities!

I am new here on your vlog.. nice review, clear enough, and now you are in my list to watch about car review. Anyway, i love Mazda 5 and cx 9. 👌

Thanks for making these helpful videos Jon!

My favorite setting is the lock when driving. I have mine set to lock when going into drive and unlock when going into park. You pull up to drop someone off and the regular passengers expect to hear the unlock, they aren’t tempted to get out before you are ready.

Another great video Jonathan!

I have a 2016 CX-5 GT and I LOVE ITTTT. The 2021 is so nice!!

Just boight a grand touring so pumped ! 12600 miles and its a 2021 ! Great deal. So excited , thank u for the good video

Tried one yesterday, loved it. Going to be my next ride.

Great Video Jonathan. I bought the cx5 carbon edition turbo in April. Only drawback is the radio seeking. Is there a way to just turn the knob and go through different stations? It defaults to favorites which is limiting.

You got me with 2 and 7. Cool facts!

This is a Jonathan top 10 video. There were a couple I didn’t know. The best was the way to get to old fashioned cruise control. While I can’t imagine why anyone would want it, I have been asked how to do it several times. I have to see if works like that on my Mazda3.

Hi Jon, thanks for the review. Am living the dream in Melbourne, Australia and waiting on the shipment of new CX-5's to arrive as I've got mine all picked out. Great video and appreciate the level of detail in your review. Regards, Billy

Johnathan, you are a great guy! Thank you so much for posting this and responding to my text. Now I know more ❗

Im based in the UK but your videos of the CX5 is what prompted me to order one yesterday! A nice Soul Crystal Red with White leather interior and all options! I think its equivalent to the US Signature model. Exciting times ahead!

That was awesome information! I work for Toyota and this still is my favorite vehicle. In spite of the generous employee discount that we receive this is still my next vehicle of choice.

Just purchased My 2021 Cx5.... In Love ❤

Thank you so much for the video! I got a 2021 Mazda cx5. I'm wondering how do I open the trunk from inside the vehicle. For now I always have to get out off the car to open it for groceries curbside pick or people not familiar with my car... Thank you

Great video as always. Informative even for veteran Mazda owners. One feature that’s rarely mentioned that I use often on my CX-9 is the rear request switch. I think I spied it on the CX-5’s hatch in the video. This might only be for the Advanced Keyless Entry ....To the right of the outside lift gate open button (just above the license plate), is a third request switch in addition to each front door handle. You can tap it to lock the car and engage the security system. Handy after the entire family gets out. We always seem to gather behind the car before waking into a store. I can tap the rear request switch to lock the car rather than pull out the fob or walking to a front door.

Thank you sir,appreciated

Great video! Got a Carbon Turbo Edition and turning off the Radar Cruise Control is a huge tip. Those radar cruises are frustrating and sometimes dangerous

Woohoo new intro!! 🎶 More 🎵 🚙 🎶 Vids

Nice Video Jonathan.

Thanks Jonathan for the cool and helpful video. I have had the GTR for 2 months now and already racked up 4000 miles on it.

Sweet baby Jesus, thank you! I'm a new Mazda/21 CX5 lady, this was so helpful and I love my car so much! 😍

Thanks! I only knew about half of that. 👍

I still have the 2012 CX5 and working in top condition 👌

Thank you very quik referance for us guys i appreciate it .

I’ve had my Mazda for 4 months and I love it

Last week I just bought Cx 5. Thanks for your help.

Great video! I own a CX-5 and it's a really great vehicle. Stylish, quiet, comfortable and reliable. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Absolutely informative video.Thanks and much appreciated your job. My Mazda CX-5 2021 Grand Touring GT Premium plus does not show the reverse assist line. Is there any setting there to make that work and also a 360 degree camera as well.

Outstanding job on this Jon. Just bought a 2021 and took delivery two days ago. Great car. This was useful information much of which I didn't know.

I just hit 2500 miles on my 2021 Touring, and these are exactly the type of videos I'm looking for. Thanks for doing what you do!

Had a 2021 CX5 as a rental, early July 2021. One unnerving & potentially dangerous quirk was the COAST feature on cruise control. After driving many cars equipped with cruise control over many years, this is the first I encountered that if you hold down the COAST button continuously more than a couple seconds, the vehicle actually applies the brakes & quickly slows down by 10-20 or more(!) mph. Instead of normally killing the throttle to coast, slowing gradually you risk getting rear-ended. I didn't use the cruise very much on that trip!

Thank You that was very informative. i did not realize the hatch height was adjustable. Iam still learning all the features. i just ordered a nav sd card. i hope its as simple as it sounds to install myself. i may need to contact you. 2020 CX 5 GTR

Such GREAT INFORMATION We purchased new '23 CX 5 last week, the dealer had little time to go over features. Not being tech savey we immedieatly became flustered. The Owners manual is huge and terrible IMO and the illustrations are tiny. Your video eventhough being a couple years older was very helpful. If I can only determine if we have the "A" or "B" dashboard to help us get started. This was our first video, we hope to find more YT CZ 5 instructionals. 👍 Thank You!!!

Hi Jon, thanks for your excellent videos on the 2021 Mazda CX5. I just bought the Signature trim in Soul Red and love it. I have one question that may seem silly. When starting up the Mazda is there any musical tone to hear? My husband's Ford F150 makes a nice sound when starting and I wondered if that was available on my Mazda. Silly I know but would be a nice added touch.

Great series. Teaching us how to use our new 2022 Mazda CX-5 Signature (everything) (Soul Red) We are stumbling with adding Android Auto but will get there. We really miss having an AUX radio input to play our aging two Ipod Classics that have everything we listen to. If you have an idea surely there is a secure way to give you my credentials so you can contact me.

Just got the GTR yesterday and LOVE IT!!!

Thanks for the info. This video is need of the hour. #6 , #10, and #14 are helpful for me. I got one CX-5 leased three weeks ago. Cool features Loved it. one thing i am missing is the digital speedometer. Can you pls tell me how to answer the phone, I have connected Bluetooth and set up audio and phone.

I drove this model as a rental and although it had some things to get used to, the radio and gas thingy and the push start engine, I always wondered about the key. I didn't know it was in the fob lol. I also didn't know about the pull down cup holders and charger in the back seat. This car was very cool to drive. I may even get one in the near future 😏

Got my carbon edition yesterday, AWD Turbo, what a beauty

Thank you from the UK. Purchased my 1st CX5 today (GT Sport). Lovely car and you have made it easier for me to understand how certain things work. Great video

I wondered why the key fob was so fat 😆 Now I know, thanks for the tip!

Would be nice to go over programing by key fob, eg driver 1 and driver2

Thanks so much for this! I learned some new things about my Mazda No. 5!

That key part blew my mind... you know when you've had something in your bag, for the past few months, and you didn't know what it was capable of. The height setting for the trunk/boot was also an eye opener...I am 5ft 1in. Thank you!

Thank you I just purchased my cx5 Milwaukee,, you really helped me learn stuff !!! Need to install a SD do u have a video on how tooo?? What about seat protection in Parchment

I notice there's a button on the right of the rear tailgate release. My Subaru Forester it's used as a 5 digit pin code so for example if you want to go kayaking and leave your keys in your car you can do that. At the dealer on the 2022, I saw the same button (probably the same Subaru uses on their car (both made in Japan). Does it have pin code access?

Thank you. That was very helpful for someone considering a CX-5

Just got a 2023 Mazda CX-5 Signature model. I am finding your tips helpful. Re the Bose sound settings, on my car, the center point was already on 3. Unless someone at the dealership changed it before I got there, that must be the new default setting.

Love my 2019 Mazda CX-5. Only complaint is I wish I had turbocharged cuz it's a little slow off the get. But everything is so user-friendly and the vehicle is super durable. This is the third one I've owned. I put on 100,000 miles a year

Another terrific and informative video. I think I've watched most of your videos about the CX-5 , as I'm hoping to buy a Grand Touring soon. Literally every other vehicle make and model have received enough owner complaints about problems to make me very leery. I do not find that to be the case with the CX-5. Your videos have definitely helped in steering me in the CX-5 direction. Seemingly the only occasional complaint is owners feeling that the front seat bottoms are short and uncomfortable. I'll be test driving one this week. Any advice or comment on the seat "issue"?

Thanks!

Thank you Jonathan! That was a very informative video. I have always wondered if the Mazda CX-5 has the "hold a button down on the keyfob to roll down all the windows" function. I had this in my older cars but can't figure out if this is possible with the CX-5. Do you know the answer?

Great video thanks My dad just got his 21 cx5

My Name is Jonathan Jewell, we are one letter off and WOW that this video came up I'm actually giving serious consideration of buying a new CX-5, and never ever considered a Mazda before. I'll take this as a good sign.

Dont forget the new keys can be deactivated to save battery life and in the UK we get NAV as standard on all models and specs, great video glad it's not just me with all this mazda stuff in my head

I just leased a 21’ CX-5 GT w Performance Pack in snowflake white pearl, 1 week ago. I like it pretty well except the brakes are soft, no dead pedal cover, No backlit turn/wiper stalks, and the seats hurt my butt after half hour drive. It’s a smooth refined vehicle tho. The dealer was charging MSRP on all of their vehicles due to limited inventory (chip shortage). I’m in Oklahoma City

Hi Jonathan, is their a way to turn the lane assist steering wheel vibration off?

I really like the cx5 except for the placement of the rear USB ports. When the rear seats are folded down how do you access those ports without crimping cables? Am I missing an easy fix?

Great vid once again Joh, it’s amazing how the functions differ between countries as our Touring comes with a lot more. Thou we get 7 variants with a choice of 4 engines 2ltr, 2.5ltr, 2.5T & 2.2 twin turbo diesel The entry model Maxx is available in FWD with a 6spd manual. Also in 9 colours. 🇦🇺

Does it provide auto-dimming exterior and interior mirrors?

Just bought the wife a 2022 Carbon Edition. We’re loving it. The damn thing is just so nice. She had an Acura prior to this. I’m very impressed with what you get for the money with these Mazda’s

can you do one of these about the mazda3 turbo

Hi Jonathan, Does the 2022 Mazda CX-5 come with fog lamps?

How can you turn the scream to touch screen ? Thanks

Just bought this beauty 😍

Thanks for the info. I have a mazda cx 5 2021.5. Different dash, probably because of Canadian market. First time ever of owning a mazda. I like it for many reasons but I hate the temperature controls. It is either too hot or cold .very frustrating to adjust even on long trips. Seems as the air is poorly distributed. The radio controls should have a seek option. Again very frustrating 😑. It's a nice car that has great features but improvements will be needed before we purchase another one.

Do you think Mazda will fix the satellite radio steering wheel control issue with a software upgrade ? You can’t scroll channels on satellite radio through the steering wheel buttons. It works with regular radio just not satellite radio.

Hi, does this have a tire pressure monitor? Can it show you what tire is low? Can't seem to find anything on that. As well is there a way to turn off the loud annoying beep sound when you open and close the trunk? Thanks.

how do u fold the side mirror?

I got a 2021 CX5 Signature after watching your videos and loving the 2016 CX5 my wife now drives. I have a problem with the Navigation as it works poorly. My 2016 recognized my voice and I was able to get directions, BUT not this 2021 Signature. It will get music off my USB drive from my voice but NOT navigation. The dealer can't seem to make it work either. Do you know the trick? Pete Long Island

Hey Jonathan, is it possible to show the current speed in digital letters?

We have a 2014 CX5 Grand Touring we bought new. In 2014 I was amazed that a “factory” remote engine start key fob was not available on any mazda. We got the dealer remote start installed and not only was it extremely complicated, it worked about 3 months. After one unsuccessful attempt to have dealer repair it we gave up and it hasn’t been used since. Also ridiculous to have two fobs on keyring. So now we are in process of attempting to get a new suv to replace CX5. Has been a good car after 8 years. To my amazement though still can’t get a remote start factory keyfob on any new model CX5! Remote start key fobs are practically standard equipment on most new cars now. Yes it now has the Mazda connect that means can start engine with cell phone, but that’s not the same. I also have a 2021 Ford F150 with ability to start engine on my IPhone. But it’s not practical for everyday use. Have to get phone out and start app and there is about a 20 second delay. Does not take place of a quick remote start key fob. Just shocked that Mazda is so behind on something so simple and basic now days. It’s keeping us from buying another Mazda.

Hey thx so much for mentioning about how to activate the ‘regular’ cruise control. I’ve been wondering about that. My gf doesn’t like the radar cruise control and I was hoping there was a way around that. Lots of little things to learn. I remember it was a year after owning my first CX5 and I accidentally found out about auto-high beams. I thought that was cool!

I had no ideaI could "STOP" the radar ACC function!!! I had a Mazda 6 and sometimes that distance sensor drove me bonkers. It's a fabulous safety feature, but annoying at times. I had no idea. 😮 Still not paying $500 for the navigation SD card though. That's ridiculous

Can you open the windows with your remote? I could with my old Mazda6, but not the new Cx5? I missed this feature during hot summer days....
