What tech is new ?
It's a great, reliable car. At this price, I don't think there's anything better in the new car market
Is it? even the base model seems well equipped.
Dated but proven and will be low maintenance and reliable in the long run.
Let me guess - 8GB of RAM?
Well played sir.
Great for picking up soccer mums ;) ;)
This isn't a Tesla
if only it was then it would be decent tech in it.
Best 7 seater car around $40/50k mark? Non EV. Non battery.
Honda CRV?
Outlander?
I have a 2021 cx8, which is a 7 seater. Our next option was outlander. We like Mazda's though, and service is always excellent.
Base model is around 45 I think, new.
Honda odyssey too bad Honda doesn't make them anymore
I would recommend importing a Toyota Noah 2022 S-Z.
I prefer Honda, but have to consider parts availability.
Mahindra xuv700
lol you wouldn't be able to buy an EV with 7 seats for 40 to 50k anyway 7 seater ev's start from 100k. do they still make the kia carnivals? they were about that price range from memory many years ago.
Wrong. There are 7 seater EVs under $100k. As a matter of fact, Mercedes EQB250+ is under the FBT threshold for novated lease. Same with the VW ID Buzz LWB. So in theory if you take up novated lease on them, the real out of pocket cost after tax is $50-60k.
Kia Carnival
Minivans need more love.
More utility than SUVs (and that was the point of SUVs right?)… just not as cool as it looks like a bus, rather than an offroader.
Yep, hand 3 different 7 seater before I got a carnival. Wish I found it 1st.
Dont know if there is still any stock for the last batch of CX-9
It is pretty solid as a non-EV 7 seater.demo/1-2yo Kluger
Old Prado
Kia Sportage
Nobody vouch for SsangYong? Rexton
Good price for what it is. As long as you are aware the design dates back to 2017 and a new design coming in 12 months. Engine, handling and physical look are still pretty good for its age though.
12 months in europe prob means 2 years in AU, we often get trickle down leftovers after EU & NA have plenty
Edit: it's a valid point though as it's such a popular SUV in Australia no doubt all dealerships have a lot of stock to move
I dont think EV is woth buying in current climate as the depreciation is so much that savings are negated.
I was comparing corolla and MG EV for leasing through salary sacrifice.Savings are good for EV as you will be able to salary sacrifice 100%
But end of lease balloon payment is much higher than antcipated market value of the car.
On ther hand it is better value for Corolla.It says hybrid/PHEV, not EV- quite different
Are Tiguan and Kodiaq both getting facelift in ‘25?
Don't know if VW will be around in 25 sacking 30k workers & closing 10 plants.
I bought a brand new Tiguan in 2018 and is religiously maintained by our dealer.
In early 2024, while driving, I got the dreaded "Gearbox in Emergency Mode. You can drive on." message.
I took it to our dealer, who arranged for a rental for our use, while sorting out the issue. It took our dealer six weeks to get our gearbox fixed. Because our Tiguan was still under dealer warranty, we did not have to pay the $7,100 to get the gearbox replaced.
Four days later, the message "Gearbox in Emergency Mode. You can drive on." returned. I drove the Tiguan back to the dealer and walked across the street to Mazda and placed a down payment for a CX5.
When the Tiguan was fixed 4 weeks later, I sold it back to the dealer.
Google "Gearbox in Emergency Mode." and you will see many VW owners (plated 2016 up to 2022) having this same issues.
Yep, exact same thing happened to a person I work with. They were about 1 month inside the warranty period. They're now terrified at what else may go wrong and the potential bill.
Yes
Found a demo car from their dealership for 35880 .. should I go with it? Been looking for a car for some time and it’s going to be my first car ..
Ask them for the walk away price.
Should that be lower than this? The price he said is a drive away price
walk away is the price they give when you are walking away from the dealership and they run after you
Can’t go wrong with the petrol versions, see if you can get the 2.5L over the 2L if possible
Thats around $5000 more I believe
Odo ?
1000-2000km I believe not more ..
Demo is actually used
Ask them to see what the 'red book' value is - as that's what the car is worth when you tried to trade it in to any dealer
Don't be conned that Demo = near new. It's been registered, and driven so for my money it's a used car - regardless of how many km's, who's driven it etc
32k nothing more than that
I wish
$37k finally no hub caps!
lol for $37k, who in the right mind would charge that and use steel + hubs
Wil you drive them simultaneously?
That‘s their RRP…and 2024 plates only go cheaper from now on.
Yeah and watch all these gullible people who don't do research upvote this. Look there's even some idiot downvoting you.
Price has been this for almost half a year.
Beat me to it..
2023s were $30,990+ORC new same time last year…
Can not recommend Mazda. Expensive servicing. Average tech. And too pricey. These should be early 30k if they want to move stock
Their genuine Mazda parts are a rip-off. Ask your mechanic for after market parts
Don't bother with dealers servicing
Remember do not get conned by that pretty chic trying to sign you up on paint protections and add on. It's everywhere
I know she is hot just don't do it, it will do you more harm than good. She is there for sales not interested in you blokes
They've sold a few…
What brand do you think is better in the way you mentioned?To counter this I can recommend a CX5. Plenty of toys for the money, decent to drive for a family wagon, looks good and solid reliability.
Not sure about this price. Think I only paid about 8000 more for a GT-SP (second from top spec at the time) with a whole load of extra bits ‘worth’ another few K in 2021 brand new from City Mazda in Melbourne.
Also isn't this quite an old model now? Must be due a major refresh soon
Used to work at a dealership that did Toyota and Mazda. Holy shit the pricing on Mazda parts were off the charts mental, I remember this one small plastic bit was like $400.
My friend has CX-5, fuel average around 8L/100KMs.
"a fuel economy range from 6.9L/100km to 8.2L/100km, depending on the model badge."
I pay $300-400 for service a year. The European suv is about 900-1000.
Fake manual or auto transmission?
Autos have been around for more than half a century, what are you talking about?
95%+ of new cars are auto.
Toyota barely has any models left that still have manual options. You living in the past mate
Time machine took the wrong turn?
It is a good car for a good price this will last you 2 decades if you look after it
Good deal but spending a little extra on a RAV4 seems like a much better deal. Especially long term in running costs and resale.
Folks are looking at late model rav4, maybe 22 or 23. Any advice for buying them?
Good cars but Mazda is so overrated.
Good resell value just like Apple.
I have 2016 CX-5 Petrol 2.5L AWD. Very reliable and I still love it. Service's once a year and it's still very zippy to drive. It may be basic tech, but can give competition to most cars in the price range in agility and pick-up. Fuel consumption is slightly higher though.
It has CarPlay. That’s all the tech you really need.
that plus a good set of cameras is really all the tech i care for, everything else that beeps at you it just annoying.
how much will this sell for after 1 year with 10-15k km? 30?
Nah. China finally putting good pressure and hopefully this will come down another 10K.
This is obviously better than an MG ZS petrol (or whatever the cheap 20K Chinese SUV is) but it sure as hell isn't nearly $15K better.
Not so good fuel economy.. takes more than 9l/100k in local driving
Buy the naturally aspirated 2.5L + 6AT + AWD without Cylinder Deactivation. Don't get turbo if you don't need the power and drive short distances. It's well put together machine, old school but functioning but space is a downside… fuel efficiency is never Mazda's key competency (Skyactiv-G engine has very high thermal efficiency though - car is heavy and don't work well in start/stop traffic and hilly areas…)
If taken care of with regular maintenance, this car can last well over 400,000KMs with original transmission (change the transmission fluid, it has a dipstick), saw some in US east went over 1M KMs…
Mazda = Goood cars. I got my CX-8, 7-seater, brand new, for $42k in Feb 2024.
Hmmm these models are pretty dated tbh
Very basic tech
