Comparison of Pros & Cons
Pros

  • 2022 Mazda CX-8 brings an additional turbocharged petrol variant into the local line-up while keeping the rest of the pre-update range
  • Driving ergonomics on the Mazda CX-8 are excellent, from steering and pedal positioning, to the weight of the instruments
  • Second-row seats are as comfortable as the first-row, and third row seats are some of the most best around

Cons
  1. Price - The sole 2.5-litre variant is priced from RM 215,664, which is a little bit expensive. For comparison, the 2.5 L turbocharged Mazda CX-5 is RM 40,000 cheaper.
  2. Design - The boxy and polygonal design may not be up to everyone’s taste.
  3. Infotainment- While Apple Car Play and Android Auto is a welcomed inclusion, the 7-inch touch screen is disproportionately small in comparison to the unnecessarily bulky head unit that houses the touch screen. Most consumers can do without a DVD player today and display resolution on both the digital screens leaves much to be desired.

  • Keyless function on the doors are still buttons as opposed to sensors, and on a car costing around 200 grand, this is unacceptable
  • Interior space is generous as far as Mazdas go, but competitors are noticeably roomier inside
  • Braking performance is only average when the car is empty, and expedient stopping would be a hairy experience when fully occupied
