For 3-4 years
Tesla Model 3
Cx5
Mazda would be most fun to drive. Volvo for safety & comfort. Merc for showing off money
XC40 š
I own a GLA and although for 2 people itās been great, when I have folks in the back seats, they find it not super comfy, esp on Coast Hwy
Volvo
Volvos are great.
All are great cars. I am in the similar process myself. My shortlist is xc40, mazda, bmw x2 and range rover evoque. I am leaning towards Mazda GT version as the cheapest of these. It still offers great handling and is sweet looking. It also seem to offer best reliability and tco (had one mazda and one bmw before, mazda was much more reliable). If it had 30hp more I wouldnāt even think about anything. else. X2 and xc40 are close contenders though. I really like volvo styling and interior. X2 is also a pleasure to drive. Last argument I have for Mazda is that I am taking my cars for little off-road every now and then and this is the one that I would cry the least when scratching.
Mazda CX-5 is the only vehicle that is ranked IIHS Top Safety Pick + Also, top 3 finalist for World Car of the Year
Pretty sure the volvo is better than mazda for safety.
Pretty sure because you have unconscious brain response conditioned by brand marketing or is there also some actual data behind that?
