Looking for a compact SUV <$40k (all incl). Don’t like RAV4 so that’s out of the equation. Open to other ideas but reliability and low maintenance costs are utmost priority Tc - 320k Yoe - 10 #cars #mazdamotor #honda #kiamotors #toyota #car
Go take a test ride and decide for yourself. It should be your choice. All three are good for different kind of ppl.
Did a test drive and Mazda was the best one to drive but felt very cramped at the back. CRV felt the roomiest and wasn’t bad to drive.
Cx-5 is good but depreciates quickly within the first 2 years, but Mazda always does deals so better to wait until end of year
Honda I know holds its value the best but does Mazda depreciate more than Kia ??
So is it a good idea to buy Mazda 2-3 years old so that actual depreciation doesn't hit ?
I love my Kia Sportage Hybrid top trim! Ventilated seats, car play, adaptive cruise, lane assist, remote start, remote parking from key fob, panoramic view.
Model Y like rest of the blind
Not an SUV. A Nissan Versa, which is considered a subcompact car, has higher ground clearance and more interior capacity. The Teslas are pathetic.
What Y has plenty of interior space
Toyota Sienna
Spend lil more and get a family car.. Acura is the best. U can make more money in future but u can not bring back time.
What is a family car and why are the above options not family cars ?
Cx-5 passenger row is squished. You can’t fit car seat easily.
You mean CX-50 right ? Mazdas are a delight to drive for the price. CR-V is reliable car that can hold value. Sportage has amazing interiors and tech compared to other cars (also costly). If you want fun - get CX-50 If you want a car that can carry you without issues - CR-V If you want to show off your cozy interior - Sportage At that price range, you should also check Subaru Forester or Outback.
How is cx50 a fun compared to CRV?
Just drive and you will know. I have owned both cars and one was nimble and really responsive and other was just a normal car that refuses to die.
Can’t go wrong with a Honda
My crv’s AC went wrong and I had to replace it, fortunately, under warranty. My driver side power seat was broken by my foot kicking accidentally and the dealer said that they can’t fix it.
O wow… I guess I was wrong. 😅 Anyway, in my experience Honda cars are in general incredibly reliable.
Cx5 all the way of you don't want hybrid.
I am also in a similar boat. Am going with Crv, due to it's low maintenance and high resale price.
