I am getting one. One the first test drive, I noticed a little lag when smashing the gas pedal. On the second test drive, I told the salesman about it, he said to put it in "Sport" mode. No lag. Immediate smash and go. As for the cruise control, lane departure, etc...my GMC Sierra has that and does the same thing. You can disable it all or "adapt" to it. It's all nice with safety in mind, but I learned to actually drive in the 1970s before all this technology and we had longer attention spans

Handsome manly styling. Look ma, no CVT!

Great vid. What’s up with the two watches tho? Lol

I have those issues on my wife's 2019 CR-V with the Adaptive Cruise and Lane Keeping Alert (doesn't "assist," just shakes the steering wheel). After the Lane Keeping shook the steering wheel a couple of times when I got close to the center line on a deserted country road the first time I drove it, I turned it off and have never turned it back on. I just found it annoying and unnecessary. (I sometimes wonder if some of these so-called safety systems just simply promote bad driving habits.) I also turned the adaptive cruise off and usually just use the standard cruise for the very same reasons you give. The CR-V's ACC will even start to brake on a multi-lane roadway straightaway if the car to my right and ahead of me gets a little too close to the line. So I would end up hugging the line to my left so that wouldn't happen. Not sure that's a safe practice. Granted, I live in a rural area and drive over 50% rural two-lane roads, but I appreciate being able to choose to turn off these features if I want to. One other thing I do really appreciate about the CR-V (1.5T) is that we regularly average around 34 mpg on round trip road trips (several hundred miles) while driving between 60 and 75 mph. (Of course my 2014 Accord 2.4L will do at least that good, too.)

Thanks for this video. I was looking for the feedback on this exact thing on Mazda cx-50 and you have made it. This would probably be the deal breaker for me to get a cx-50. Any clue if this is improved in the newer 2024 models?

@@edschobs5204 Would have been nice if Mazda included a dash switch to disable this feature, like they did with the iStop switch.

any significant cuves on freeways i just turn off cruise because the system always thinks other people are in your lane (since the sensor just sees straight). The other annoyance is when people overtake you and they are going faster the system still breaks. very annoying. overall a fine system though >90%. Also never turn on lane keep, it's horrendous on mazda

For the auto breaking, have you confirmed or not if there are other settings to tweak the sensitivity of the trigger? I currently have a Subaru, not a Mazda (although i used to have a miata pre tech safety stuff), and for the longest time I didn’t realize I could change the sensitivity of when the breaks engage due to distance of a car in front while on cruise control. There are three dashes that indicate how close is tolerable, pretty close, medium close, wide birth type of thing (there is no feet/km shown so i assume it’s really approximately one car length, two car length, three car lengths). Maybe there is something similar on the Mazda, I don’t know. I usually keep it at the default of three since I don’t want to ride to close to others, but to each their own. On three it does engage the breaks when non-necessary sometimes. I can see why some would be irked by that.

I agree with all the points in the video. I also experienced those problems with safety in mazdas, they keep improving them with time. (I owened 2019 cx5 GT, have 2021 cx30 natural aspirated and 2022 cx9 GT) I also learned that you can override the breaking or slowing down of the radar cruise using accelerator pedal. Manual controls always take priority. Also there are some twicking available under safety settings. Nothing is perfect in this world... I tried Toyota safety 2.0 in 2019 highlander and it was Bad comparing with Mazda cx9 at that time, lane keep was beeping too much telling everyone in the car I was doing somthind wrong where mazda just qwietly vibrated my steering wheel for me and moved it in the right direction so no one noticed, etc. Also BSM in 2019 cx5 was too agressive, but they fixed it fast in the later models becouse everyone was complaining, try to find enother car company that listens to its customers. Yes, lane centering would be nice, it will come soon, remember mazda is a small company... Also want to say about MPG, it's the 6-speed tranny problem. Once they upgrade to 8-speed it will be better especially on the highways. They already have it in cx90...

I have not found the safety assists to be a problem in my CX-50. I have had it all summer in SC with temps up to about 105f, not LV hot but hot and I haven't seen a hit on mileage (24.5 around town and 27 HW). I will see how it does in cold weather. You adjusted your driving in other cars, why not this one when driving where you need more smash? Use the sport mode, manual shift using the paddles or stick to get the TQ/HP you want. The 320 ft/lb of torque is great for me. My complaint? Damn Meridian Falken tires are loud on rough surfaces and the Apex roof rack adds to the wind noise.

I need help with Road noise on passenger seats. Mazda CX5 Turbo Signature vs Honda Sports L Hybrid AWD? Which had better sound deadning?

I just ordered a 2024 CX-50 Turbo Premium...should be in any day now. I don't plan on using the radar cruise control...staying with the tried and true...I don't want to rely on a computer to speed up or slow down the vehicle...I'd prefer to be in control as much as possible. There are some bells and whistles I don't need, and this is one of them. I can also do without i-stop, but at least that can be disabled.

I owned a '23 CX50 Turbo and I hated all these things you mentioned in this video! So much I got rid of the car and got a Volvo V60. Immediately noticed how bad the CX50s Cruise Control/Lane Keep was, Gas Mileage, and also felt it was pretty slow altogether. There's pros to the cx50, especially the looks...looks frkn great, but there's just some things like these that were so annoying to me.

I had one of these as a loaner when my 3T was in and I struggled to get more than 19-21mpg just putting around. In the 3 I get 26avg with lots of city driving, 30 hwy on road trips and 24 if I'm late for work. I hate driving road trips during the day due to the crappy road etiquette you noticed so I either gap them way before they can respond or only road trip at night. The 2.5T in the 3 is much better tuned for higher RPMs. I noticed the CX50 is in 5th at 35 and it really lacks high speed acceleration due to weight and its low torque focus.

Expecting Delivery at end of August for my CX50 Turbo Ingot Blue with terracotta interior. Can't wait! Any suggestions on the first 3 things I should do for the first few months? Does the car need a break in period? Thanks Great videos by the way. Keep up the good work!

It was misty out, first 2/3 of the 1 hour drive were fine, then out of nowhere it just shut the entire cruise control off completely saying front sensor blocked. It was quite a quick deceleration before I could get my foot back on the gas, thankfully no vehicles following closely behind or it could have been rear ended.

How could it be a quick deceleration? Did it take you 30 seconds to move your foot? If the radar’s visibility is affected it won’t be reliable and is therefor dangerous. It’s a system designed to protect the driver and cause them to focus more vividly. If you get rear ended by a car for slowing down 1km/r every 5 seconds, they shouldn’t have a license.

Question. On really hot days, how long does it take your CX-50 to start blowing cold air? Mine is a good 10 minutes.

How is the highway Road noise for passengers in rear seats in Mazda CX50 GT Non-Turbo in Canada, and in USA called CX50 Premium Plus Non-Turbo? How noise compares to Honda CRV Hybrid 2024?

I bought my naturally aspirated premium Plus back in July 2022. I have over 12K on it now, average miles says 20.8 because I do way too much city driving. That being said, I get on average 30 mpg on the highway. The problem is I believe this car is tuned for a 45-55 MPH highway and not 65+. Taking route 78 in NJ I averaged 26 because of the higher speed, on route 22, even with lights, I was at 31.5 when I took my time. It's also a slower road, top speed usually is 50.

Well you expect technology to work perfectly. I learned to drive in a 56 Chevy Belair. No lane keep, no lane centering, no cruise control, no turbo, no rearview camera. no power steering, no power locks, no power windows. heck not even seat belts. No radio, No A/C! The dash was metal. You drove the car, you controlled the distance between you and other cars. You kept the car centered in the lane. The transmission was 3 on the tree manual. Some older cars on the road did not have turn signals. We were just glad to be mobile. Today's technology is amazing! with so many distracted drivers the car itself is trying to keep you safe. And someday soon you may get in and tell the car where to take you. For now however, you are the driver.

I really like the CX-50, but I do hope it gets a hybrid option in the future. Fuel economy is a problem for me, having 20 mpg and maybe lower is quite concerning.

Get rid of the stock air filter in your engine replace with and oil based filter also remove the charcoal filter in your engine air filter box car will have more power using 91/93 octane. For better gas mileage get a 3/8 drill bit for metal. Put a 3/8 hole in the exhaust pipe where it's connected to the muffler. It will sound better and more powerful. That small hole in the exhaust makes a whole lot of differens. It releases some back pressure on the engine. In about a week of driving your mpg will be way up. Don't be scared nothing is going to break. 👍

lol what

Of course you'll have an undesirable gas mileage. You are turbo that's one and second it's because your wheels are 20s and heavy. Go put a light and nice looking aftermarket 17s

I have a question: What exactly are you relying on Lane Keep Assist to do? Just shut it off. And yes, the Radar Cruise overworks the brakes. To the point that I hate it in my 2018 Mazda6. Be that as it may, Mazda is amazing and it's not Mazda's fault that American drivers are morons.

Watching crash videos I'd say many drivers all over are subpar. At least in America the vehicles have to pass inspection of some sort and aren't ready to fall apart as they go by.

Mazda doesn’t have the same idiotic philosophy of their autos being self driving. They are drivers autos as such their Variable cruise controls give subtle clues if your crossing over lanes rather then jerking the wheel out of your hands. This calibration is what sets Mazda apart from all of the mindless electronics jamming up every automobile on the planets for the sake of novelty, rather than actual safety margins. Most of them overly react to outside road perturbations. If you consider everyone on the road behind the wheel are watching every other cars positioning and driving styles . And if you consider being in line at a grocery store and someone takes cuts w/ out asking you first, it becomes very frustrating. The same phenomena happens on the road way, often I find if I need to get over I’ll make eye contact w/ driver and give them a thumbs up and a smile. 9 out of 10 drivers will nod for me to move in front of them. The key is not slowing other drivers down by slick cut off maneuvering techniques. It’s when you’re sneaky about it and brazenly aggressive towards others that will often cause them to speed up. Driving is like skiing, subtle smooth moves creates a very fluid experience while moving forward. Considering we are all “ Bozo’s on this Bus” leave room for all of us Bozo’s to move and groove 😎 w/ minimal drama. It’s a Win~Win.

this is a misleading video... Just saying.

In what way? Give examples or I will assume your comment is misleading, not the video.

Anyone who is willing to sacrifice 25 bhp in exchange for saving a few pennies on gasoline doesn't deserve such a fine automobile. If you don't want to use all 256 ponies, then you should be driving the non-turbo version. This vehicle and turbocharged engine are intended for driving enthusiasts. If you don't know what driving enthusiasm is, and have no appreciation for the performance the turbo brings, then you should be driving a Chevy Trax or other pos which is suited to you. The car is not the problem. You are.

He's owns a gr86 I'm pretty sure he enjoys driving. When Mazda claims 29 on the highway you would expect at least 25 of that not 16.
