I returned my 2013 CX-5 this morning (lease was up in 5 weeks) and picked up a 2016 CX-5.
So far, I'm vey pleased with all the minor changes Mazda has made since the car was released.
The cabin does sound quieter and the new infotainment unit is so much better than the crappy old one.
One thing I've noticed is that the steering seems more assisted than on the 2013 model.
I really like the Soul Red Mica colour, but I'm still not convinced I like the pure white interior. It'll have to grow on me. We picked it because the seats would get crazy hot in the summertime when the car would sit in the driveway. Also not sure I like the new 19" rims. Used to really like the old ones.
Anyway, here are a few pics. I'll add to the review after I've played with it a bit more.
