Mazda CX8 Reviews:

Review 1:

Great for family transport with a third row. Economical on Deisel, service costs are great value for money. This car is a great all-round option, stylish yet full of features like Navigation, great sound system, mats, and comfortable seating for all passengers.

Purchased in May 2018 at Mazda Dealers for $60,000.00.

 

Review 2:

Mazda cx8 has everything we wanted and more. Plenty of space for our 3 kids and friends when needed. Extremely fuel-efficient - currently going at 7l to 100km. Has all the newest tech, and love the screen on the dash that gives you all the info you need. A great car - i highly recommend

Purchased in November 2019 for $45,000.00.

 

Review 3:

I have had this car for a month now and love it! It has loads of features that were extras on other vehicles we test drove. Great on fuel with around 6l/100 which is close to claimed.

Purchased in September 2019 at Mazda Dealers for $43,000.00.

 

Review 4:

The CX8 is so good in so many ways; easier to maneuver than CX9, third-row seats are a good size, comfortable, quiet, safe with all the new tech, airbags extend to 3rd row, good boot size with 5 seats up, good fuel economy, good price, and the heads up display is excellent from the perspectives of keeping eyes on road and keeping under the speed limit. As much as it ticks all the boxes, I would still prefer to drive a station wagon. There is nothing wrong with it, except it’s another SUV, albeit a very good one.

Purchased in July 2019 at MacCarthur Mazda for $43,500.00.

 

Review 5:

It has been nearly a year since we bought this car & it has been a wonderful experience until now. The car provides a LOT of extras, safety feature at quite competitive price. It is smaller than CX-9 which helps in maneuverability. The diesel engine has nice torque & car feels responsive. The diesel engine is quite frugal as well, returning good real-world mileage. All premium Mazda safety features like EBS, Adaptive cruise control, lane-assist are present in this car along with Heads-up display. Head up display is QUITE useful; & very happy that Mazda included it in the base model.

Overall very nice SUV! Purchased in March 2019 at Mazda Dealers for $42,600.00.
