#Nissan #Mazda #Comparison - Auta a dopravní prostředky
We own a 2017 CX5, plus a CX9 and an MX5, and I'm a firm believer in the better driving experience Mazda offers. Not the highest tech, but the Zoom-Zoom is still there.
Purchased a 2020 CX-5 for my wife 8 months ago and I'm a complete convert. I've never owned a vehicle that I enjoyed driving as much as that CX-5.
I bought a 2021 CX5 Carbon w/turbo. MPG sucks, but damn it's fun to drive!
I have the Turbo AWD Carbon Edition . I can afford the extra fuel costs . The Mazda puts a smile on my face everytime I drive it. I'll find almost any excuse to take it out !
I leased a Mazda CX-5 after looking and test driving several cars. After pricing it turned out that I got so much more in the Mazda then I did in a base model of all the other cars I looked at. I was coming out of a Mitsubishi Outlander and decided that driving experience and interior design where more important then space for me this around! So far I love it!!
Every time I see a Mazda CX-5, I think "I should already own one of those by now."
Do it! I just bought the 21 CX 5 Carbon Turbo w red interior and it is a KILLER vehicle. I've owned a BMW M3 & a BMW X5 and this Mazda is nicer and better built than either of them.
Their complaints on the Mazda controls are funny to me. After 2 days with the CX5 I ended up much much MUCH preferring the Mazda's control system over the touch screens.
Go check the Carbon Turbo w the red seats... It's BEAUTIFUL, unique, & fun to drive!
Purchased a 2020 Mazda CX-5 about 8 months ago and have not regretted that decision at all. Nissan Rogue wasn't even on my radar because of the CVT.
Nissan Rogue all the way. Much nicer, more well rounded car. The motor will certainly be followed by some sort of hybrid, which would be my choice. The CVT I don't mind at all, but I live in europe, and we seem to get different versions of the CVTs over here. They actually are awesome. I read a lot about CVT problems in America in the past, but we didn't have those problems over here. And the current CVT is super nice. It feels like a traditional auto, but smoother, much much quicker to react and with much more sophistication when driving off-road, on snow or in the mountains. It pairs perfectly with all wheel drive.
I had a 2012 Rogue SL that I just traded in Not one issue, CVT or otherwise. Loving my 2021 Platinum.
There is no comparison to be had. Easy victory for cx5
excellent review guys! thank you for sharing!
The Platinum Edition of the Rogue should have been used for interior comparison, not the SL model.
I test drove both for an hour each. No comparison. The Rogue LOOKS great, but the seats are thin and cheap feeling in comparison to the Mazda. The Rogue is just made/feels cheaper, but it does look great (they both do).
The Mazda (turbo) driving experience blows the Rogue away as well: Way quicker/faster and much better steering. The Mazda feels like driving a luxury sedan and with the Nissan it just felt bigger. With it, I could tell I was driving an SUV sized vehicle. With the body roll, break feel I felt as if I were dragging the Rogue around the road.
The Nissan had some nice interior storage, more rear seat leg room, a bit more (pracrical) cargo room, and a neat glass roof. Other than that, the Mazda was far nicer.
The seats are thin and cheap feeling? Funny that Nissan's Zero-Gravity Seats are thought of quite highly in the automotive industry.
And as far at the CVT issues? There are hundreds of thousands of Nissan (and Honda and Toyota) CVT engines on the road. As I mentioned previously, I never had one trans issue with my 2012 Rogue. But that's just me. I would ask that you point to stats that show CVT's fail at a higher rate over standard transmissions. Talking with service people, that does not seem to be the case. But I will defer if you show me.
Body roll? "break feel" (sic). What does that even mean?
I know nothing about Mazda, but evidently there are lots of fans out there. Good for you. I'll stand by my Rogues. 2012, and now 2021.
To each his own, but I have a TON of practical experience. Not an hour.
@@lindab2323 mazdas drive is specially tuned to be more refined than the standard car of its segment. thats where the heart vs brain part of this video comes in. the mazda drives handels breaks and feels better on the road than any toyota rav 4 nissan rouge or honda crv that being said that doesnt make the mazda the best car in this segment just particular catagory. where mazda excells it also lacks. it doesnt sell as much cars as the rest to have more refined robust infotainment systems and redesigns as often. is a nissan rogue a bad car not at all they are great cars its what your looking for that matters. some people want a comfortable ride good tech and a nice design and the rouge delivers on that others will sacrifice some tech for more refined and tuned suspension handeling and whatnot. its a subjective end point and there is no better than the other car its whatever you like best

This is not a review, this is just two guys telling you how much they love a CX-5

I just got the Mazda and agree if you don't need a big CUV and want to have some fun it's the one. I wish it had a touchscreen too, but otherwise no real complaints.

Mazda, better powertrain, no CVT, nice interior, and better reliability. Rogue is nice looking, but it's a dog with a CVT!
The old Rogue was more reliable than the CX-5 according to JD power 2020 list
@@ant208 you could be right. Nissan isn't getting good reviews lately. I don't think any SUV should have a CVT. I would NOt buy the Honda CRV/HRV either. I do own a Honda Ridgeline with the 6 speed.

I've been driving this extraordinarily beautiful Mazda CX5 with the the 2,2L Diesel for two years now and got 36,2mpg. Perfect engine for this car. But I guess you don't get this engine over there...
We had it for 1 model year, 2019. I own that version and I agree it's amazing. Makes it such a different car. And the mpg!! 😁
I got a diesel one as a loaner car for a few days, but I didn't notice a big mpg gain (I still love the diesel tho!)
@@brianpopelka3165 That's what my car was, former service loaner because they had trouble selling it 🤣. But $10K off msrp and certified works for me. Oh and for mpg I certainly don't get 36 but 29, 30 is reasonable average for me. Bit less now I do local roads.
US emissions standards killed it. But also the normal turbo is tuned with high torque to feel like a diesel. The 2 engines were too similar and nobody could justify spending so much more for the diesel for nearly the same performance.
@@TheAdventureAuto definitely agree. Makes a great used car buy though 😁
9:48 “for my big American Ass” 🤣🤣
I just got my Mazda CX5 Grand Touring Reserve last Friday and it was an easy choice over the Nissan and Toyota options. The fit and finish of the Mazda, although it was the oldest design amongst the 3, were better and more luxurious. I love how it felt on the road as well. I didn't mind that it had the least amount of space in the boot or back seats as I'm a single person.
If Nissan has figured out the CVT thing as far as reliability then I think the Rogue would be the far better choice for a family hauler.
Well we won't know for another 5 years so its best to assume it's still dog shit
and if Ford Explorer had figure out the roloover issuee... really?
I have the ultimate 2020 CX 5 in Soul Red with white leather and turbo. Replaced a 2016 CX 5. Never had a space problem. We love out annual three week road trips and we pack all luggage plus two full sets of golf clubs.
.
That Mazda engine and 6 speed is fabulous in our CX-9. Getting it in the lighter CX-5 is a no-brainer. That engine makes it feel like you've got a big block V-8 under the hood and the transmission is virtually unnoticeable. And no start-stop, at least in the CX-9.
We just purchased a 2021 CX5 signature love it😁
Tommy's wearing a subzero jacket, where's Nathan's comfortable in a tee lol
OH YEAH! I love my 2019 MAZDA CX-5 GT Reserve. SO many features and pretty quick as well, to match that good handling.
I went from an Acura TSX (rip) to the CX-5. Thought about another Honda product but really love the Mazda. Especially no CVT.
Are the zero gravity seats in the base model, or part of the SL trim?
I'm really enjoying the 2021 Rogue SL AWD premium, very comfortable and the sound system is amazing. I haven't had any issues with the CVT and I also have an Altima and also no CVT issues.
Rogue I’m ready for a couple of kids Mazda not yet zoom zoom 🏎 good video 👍🏼
I’m on my 3rd Nissan and I’m ready to jump to another brand after 5 years. I tested a Mazda CX-5 and loved it over the cx30. I got used to the info knob in seconds on the test drive. It’s either going to be a Mazda or Jeep when the time comes.
There's no comparison. Get the Mazda. You get much more bang for your buck compared to other brands, and everything is designed thoughtfully.
Jeep? Lol
We own a 2017 CX5. Love it. But it is kinda small for long road trips. If they bring back the CX7 size with the Turbo, I’d buy one.
Just purchased a Mazda C5 touring so far love it, I had a Nissan rogue hated how it drove but like the space but it's just me now don't need all that room.
Funny how vast majority of viewers here prefer Mazda, but Rogue still outsells CX-5 without even trying. Looks like there is a difference between youtubers and customers after all...
Agreed the Rogue out sell the CX-5 by a huge margin.
That's because you can get really aggressive discounts and financing or lease offers on nissan, so yeah. The msrp on rogue is not reflective of it's actual price OTD. Mazda on the other hand, not so much.
Because Nissan is a king of rentals and Mazda is not....
I went with the rogue.. it’s not slow lol it’s not a race car, but then I wouldn’t purchase either for that 🤷🏻♀️
CVT has come along way if you look after your vehicle it’s like anything.. you could get a lemon 🍋
So my takeaway is to go with the Rogue if you hate Van Halen and want a numb, boring drive. If you love Van Halen and want to have a little fun while driving go with the CX-5.
If you want better technology, equipment, practicality, space, comfort, convenience features and value, Nissan Rogue is a lot better.
@@rafaelg9016 *BUT THE TRANSMISSION SUCKS, After 60,000 miles*
I had a rogue with over 130,000 miles

The rouge and cx5 mid level are comparably priced. We rented a rouge over 7 days SV trim and here are our observations: great space overall. Eco mode really saves the fuel. Seats are very conformable. High tech with touch screen, push start with 360 views. Quiet ride with semi smart acc. Not a big fan of Nissan before but this new design did surprised us. The functionality is just there. Lots of small design that make sense and convenient. Like this video, if you are looking for fun to drive, go with cx5, that’s what they sell and what you should get, but everything else just lack a bit (the knob screen control kills the deal these days). If you are looking for a everyday car and sudden acceleration is not your thing or just want to get A to B comfortably, take the rouge and life will be easy and happy. We were looking at cx5 hard and after this trip, rouge got us. The comfy seats plus make sense design (storage) and new tech is the way to go. Last but not least, I do appreciate Mazda, you know what you get, and you know what you are giving up off.
Do a comparison with the Tucson. I am really curious to hear what you guys think @tflnow
I own a CX-5 and in the few years I have owned it I have never needed any extra power or AWD. I wish Mazda had the more squared back end that would increase cargo space and one has to be very cognizant of the road as Mazda does not have the best views for the driver, the lane departure warning system is nice. My wife has a Honda with the CRV and I am not sure I am a fan. The Rav4 has some issues as well.
My last Mazda caught 🔥. My last Nissan had a transmission issue. But my biggest issue was the Mazda gave me back problems and cost me dearly at the chiropractor and general health. I have heard Nissan has stepped up their quality on the transmissions. I'd go Nissan...I like my back too much and I won't need a fire extinguisher.
Where did you hear Nissan stepped up the quality of their transmissions? Is it the same place that says Subaru don't have head gaskets issues any more?
@@kevinstarski1598 It was recent but I can't remember exactly. The jist if the article was describing the enroads Nissan had made with the new leadership. Eg. less marketing, more engineering, design and quality.
I also own a Subaru Forester 2014, got it new and I just turned 200k miles and no head gasket issues. So I think they have that dialed in as well.
I'm gonna Suggest that You Buy a RAV4 Non-Hybrid, Simply for the Reliability. I'm Not Sure about the Hybrid...🤔🙂😷
@@stevewierzbicki2495 I recent got a Ford Escape hybrid Titanium for work and love it. I test drove the RAV and found it uncomfortable. The different height of the armrests were annoying.
@@nilsjohansson9739 That is AWESOME 😎, I Completely Forgot about the Escape Hybrid 🙂! Did You get FWD or AWD? My Little Brother is thinking about Buying One.... How many MPG are you Averaging, estimate??
both appeal to a very different customer groups, people who really like driving buy Mazdas, Nissan customers( aside from trucks and Z crowds) buy their cars like they buy appliances, shoes, furniture etc
The Mazda is a no brainer for me
Cannot say either I would go after. For long distance comfort ride, Rogue. Sportier, better design, CX-5.
Thanks for touching on the fuel consumption aspect. All too often reviewers completely ignore that part as if in's a non-issue to the average Joe.
Mazda. However I may be biased since I own an 2018 CX-5 and have enjoyed my experience with it so far. The disadvantage to the Mazda is cargo space is small in the class and the infotainment is okay at best and does not offer a huge moonroof. It's also not the most fuel efficient in the class either. However great steering with a somewhat stiffer sporty drive. Plus I love the exterior and interior design, although the front seats aren't amazing.
I really want a CX-5 but if the seats aren't comfortable, how can I buy this car? Lol I'm stuck
Im just little curious and a bit bothered by the walkie talkie radio. haha Could have used bluetooth in the audio? Just my nitpick about this video. But I love it overall! Great content :)
Mazda = great daily. Nissan = fleet/rental.
Got the CX5 sport 2021 no complaints
How are you enjoying it I’m thinking of buying one.
We love our 2018 rogue ❤️
only thing with the new rogues, have your dealership make sure the a/c works properly and doesnt blow in hot air before you take it home, otherwise perfect car. pray for me that they can fix it
Mazda for sure. Though the only cuv I would buy is the bronco sport.
MSRP for both as they stand would of been nice at the end
I love both of those recommended CX-5 for fun and reliability. I'd take the Rogue for new styling and lots of new features. Think Nissan improved the CVTs in later years early years wasn't reliable at all + reliability seems be better than average in early 2010s the brand had problems now after Ghosn left Nissan is trying come back as did in the 90s. I love Nissan's, Mazdas, Ford crossovers/pickups my favorites still never thought wanted chose another Rogue but this newer is better than the last generation while makes RAV4 and CR-V boring but CX-5 much more reliable and believe would last longer, Mazda is the most reliable behind Toyota I hope now since Nissan getting back on right track they be behind their cousin, all manufacturers has problems read last night on on some problems with Toyota's and Honda's few Toyota's had exploded sunroofs and Honda had problems with acceleration/electronic problems.
The Mazda has blind-spot monitoring, cross traffic alert, lane keeping assist, radar adaptive cruise control, automatic pedestrian braking, traffic sign alert, heads up display, front and rear parking sensors, adaptive LED headlights, heated and cooled front seats, heated rear seats, Napa leather interior with Abachi wood trim, heated automatic windshield wipers, and automatic high beams. The handling is very competent. The CX-5 Signature makes my heart happy as I look back at it when I walk away😊
CVT's are the reason i dont buy Subarus anymore. CVT ..Thanks but no thanks.
CVTs are the reason Subaru leasing is up and financing is down. Seriously.
The Rouge looks like somthing from the movie vacation...being a cx5 owner i am bias to the Mazda.
It's truly a exceptional drivers vehicle.
Where I live that Nissan does come with a turbo and a manual also 🤔
In my opinion the 2016 model looked the best from the outside, if they put this new interior in the 2016 shell it would be perfect lol
Is there a car that has the characteristics of both cars?
I'd get the Mazda that CVT I just don't trust it the qashqai in Europe is very good because I think you can get a manual witch then the cars are even.
The Mazda is fun to drive but you missed some elements of Rogue's interior that help it stand out. Like pass through and the split open console that allows access from the back.
Mazda is driver's vehicle but the new Rogue is leagues better than the old model.
The Nissan makes more sense, more space, more efficient but CVT is a letdown
Why?

Test the 2022 rogue with the vc turbo
Gotta love the “Zoom! Zoom!” that’s built into the CX-5 Turbo DNA. I’m in the market to get a SUV end of 2021/beginning 2022. I’m looking for fun to drive, mid-20’s gas mileage and practicality. The CX-5 is on my Top 5. 👍🏼
People say that they don’t buy Nissan because they use the CVT but they are crazy about Honda and Toyota CVT.
Maybe it's the quality of the CVT used by Nissan. I know that they make them themselves. My wife had a Murano and never had an issue with it. Traded it in with 130k miles on it.
This was one of those very chatty episodes without numbers. No 0-60 comparisons, no 60-70 roll on or quarter mile races. I would've liked to see how the Rogue's AWD system performed on the roller test since previous models underperformed in off road conditions. Not one of your better videos and I've watched many of them. Van Halen forever!
FYI. Mazda does have all the safety tech, lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control that stops and goes during traffic. 👍🏼 360 surround camera is also a plus.
I do care for bhp! That's why I'm buy cx5 turbo as my 2010 crv replacement when my crv is dead.
Mazda all the way! Maybe I'm partial as an owner.
The 2022 Rogue will get the Hybrid motor that's in the Qashqai.
I like the looks of the rogue but that transmission scares me. The mazda hasnt changed much. In recent data the Mazda brand has surpassed Nissan in overall quality and reliability. After Nissan ruined Mitsubishi they ruined themselves and it makes me sad. I hope they can recover. Anyways go Mazda for keeping things consistent and not putting unreliable technology in your vehicles.
Blaze did not get to chime in today
Recommend video right after watching a video of a 100k mile Rouge with a failing Cvt.
CVT? Mazda please.
Love the rugged look of the rogue especially in that white the Mazda getting a little bit stale in my opinion
No CVTs aloud in my driveway. Plus that Nissan reminds me of the only rental car(Hyundai Tucson) in recent years to ever break down on me. Nope.
Who makes the transmission for the Mazda?
I believe Mazda makes their own, although they have a partnership with Toyota so it could be Aisin.
@@marco.morel04 that's the answer I was looking for. That's The transmission I would want. Thanks
Wish you guys would do a real 0 to 60 in the rogue ,rav 4, mazda , crv so you guys keep saying rogue is underpowered i believe you will be shocked to see the results
Smiles Per Gallon over Miles Per Gallon for me!!!
We just checked out both. Traded in our old rouge. We bought the cx5. Biggest reason Nissan transmissions are garbage. Cx5 rates most reliable. Who cares about tech if your car leaves you stranded
Hate those screens that look like a afterthought. Put them in the dash. Why does anyone need or want a sunroof?
I get that in dash looks better, but from a manufacturing point the tablet style makes it a lot easier to incorporate different screen sizes based on trim level
The knob is so easy to use and then there’s no fingerprints.
I'll go Mazda, better looks, better reliability, better build quality, better drivetrain. I'd say it's better everywhere lol

Please be in more videos
"I hate Van Halen"🤨 Wow! Tommy really is 80 years old...
Mazda USED to look better than every other car in the segment. Now? Not so much. The suvs are becoming a lot more masculine looking (except for the escape) and having much nicer features standard.
I was in the market for one of these a few years ago and really really really wanted the Mazda. It was not only more expensive, but it was always the least well packaged.
Went with a forester that was amazing in the snow, and much better than any vehicle I’ve ever owned.
Mazda wins already because of reliability.

Nissan: Quantity vs Mazda: Quality.
Quality over quantity
That Nissan Rouge looks like it has tons of room, which is nice. Too bad it is just not screwed together as well vs. the Mazda. The Jatco CVT is also a major pain point for reliability. But, if I was shopping for an vehicle in this class, I would be looking at the RAV4 or possibly the CRV anyway.
Not a big fan of this trend of putting the headlights below the parking/fog lights like the rogue. Looks awkward to me even on the new Silverado 2500
You mean below the turning signal
If you shop both of these and take home a Rogue... I have to know why.
(Except for cargo necessity. I get that some people need the space.)
I test drove both and am actually going to be finally taking home my Platinum trim Rogue today! Much roomier and more spacious for us with 2 car seats; the heated back seats will be great for an additional backseat passenger; the cargo space was a nobrainer with needing to keep a double stroller in the back and still have room for groceries and other items. The platinum trim is exceptional and the moonroof makes the car feel huge and bright!
Rogue all the way. Their ProPilot L2 semi-autonomous driving experience kills Mazda. Mazda difficult to use "must use the stupid knob for anything on the screen tech is asinine. Mazda looks like a fluffy sedan, not a crossover ute. Rogue crushes mazda with creative storage space, touch screens, nearly 3 ft of digital infotainment, fully customizable digital dash, superior sound system, panoramic roof, heads up display in platinum model, two tone paint option, all new styling, go drive one, memory seats with seat slide back on key-off, immersive audio graphics, navigation system that is reactive and immersive, trizone hvac,......... Nothing else compares.
Hands down bought the Rogue Platinum. No comparison for me. I don't feel the need to comment more - those above
do the job just fine. Mazda fanboys are just that, I guess
@@tony69rocks I agree the Mazda tech is outdated and not the most user friendly but the driving makes up for it. All tech is outdated in a year but good driving dynamics will always be good.
I just bought a rogue. I recognize the Mazda engine is better but I’m not a fast driver and also working from home 50%. Rogue is more aggressive and different looking, love the interior better. Mazda is certainly a reliable brand though. The Nissan CVT issues are naught for people leasing (like me) if there were to be any issues - it’ll be with whoever buys the used version of my rogue when I bring it back to dealership 😉
I wouldn't touch the rogue with a 10 foot pole. Those tires will last longer than that cvt transmission.
I agree with the mazda design. i know people want a new look with new years but how do you improve on a perfect look. its very difficult.
Fun day in the canyons lol no one will pick the Mazda crossover for a fun day in the canyons lol . Hay salesman I want to have a fun day in the canyons and have hardly more room than a sedan and be underwhelmed by the power . Should I get a crossover
