Though the Subaru Forester is undeniably a market legend in its own right, there’s no denying the serious upper hand that the CX-5 holds over any competition. Its turbocharged four-cylinder engine pairs quite nicely with an available all-wheel drive system, complete with Torque Vectoring Control to keep you safe and sound on any terrain, rain, snow or shine. Inside, Mazda Connect infotainment and premium leather seating are both yours for the taking, allowing you and your passengers to ride forward in confidence and assurance for the ride ahead.  

We say all this without even mentioning the safety and driver assistance features that the 2019 CX-5 has in store, which have allowed it to achieve IIHS Top Safety Pick designation - that's unmatched by the Forester. We’ve listed the CX-5's top innovations below:

Many more!
