A real stunnerThe [/roadshow/make/mazda/model/cx-5/ Mazda CX-5] is far from the newest small crossover around, but it sure is pretty. Like the larger, three-row [/roadshow/reviews/2020-mazda-cx-9-signature-awd-review/ Mazda CX-9,] this utility vehicle is swaddled in elegant styling including a broad, kynghidongduong.vn smiling grille, clean flanks and a perky rear. It's easily one of the best-looking models in its bustling vehicle segment, which includes rivals like the [/roadshow/reviews/2019-toyota-rav4-review/ Toyota RAV4,] [/roadshow/reviews/2020-honda-cr-v-touring-awd-review/ Honda CR-V] and [/roadshow/reviews/2020-ford-escape-se-awd-review/ Ford Escape.]

Reinforcing its upscale appearance, my tester rolls on comely 19-inch rims that feature a dark-gray finish. They fill the body's wheel openings quite nicely and don't degrade over-the-road refinement. Unfortunately, lower portions of this CX-5 are trimmed in black plastic cladding, which looks completely out of place on such a tastefully styled machine.
























Appealing to a broad range of customers, the CX-5 is offered in five trim levels. There's Sport, Touring and Grand Touring, as well as Grand Touring Reserve and Signature. For added appeal, all-wheel drive is offered across the range, but it's standard on the two top models.
