Mazda is the driver's pick on the used market. The interiors are a step above the segment, the steering and ride balance are notably sharper than competitors, and Mazda's reliability has caught up with Honda and Toyota in the post-2014 generations. The CX-5 in particular is one of the better-aging compact SUVs you can buy used in this price range.
We typically stock used Mazda models in the $9,000 to $15,000 range, focused on 2014 to 2018 model years with 80,000 to 130,000 miles. Skyactiv engines have proven reliable, the available all-wheel drive on the CX-5 and CX-9 is responsive, and the cabin feels current even on five-year-old examples.
Every used Mazda on our lot has been carefully selected and fully reconditioned before it is listed. On the CX-5 specifically we inspect the rear differential and the propeller shaft on all-wheel drive models, since Mazda specified service intervals that not every prior owner followed. We pull a free Carfax on every vehicle and confirm fluid services in the documented history before pricing.
The Mazda models we see most often: the CX-5 (the value play in the compact SUV segment), the Mazda3 (compact car with luxury-segment driving feel), the Mazda6 (mid-size sedan), and the occasional CX-9 for buyers who need three rows.
