HR-V or CX-5

**perfectstranger** · June 5th, 2016 07:07 PM

actually i was planning to get accent hb or jazz but flood might be a problem so i'm going for a crossover instead.

based on my budget, either HR-V E or CX-5 maxx would fit the bill. since i needed to save more, i'll probably buy around late 2016 or early 2017. kindly share your thoughts on which is a better buy between the two.

thanks!

2.0L skyactiv is worth the extra penny. And the yojin service package is good imo even though some say its abit too much. Ive seen the cx5 go thru 350mm water hehehe.

So many hr-v and vezels in kl malaysia. Its super popupar there. It looks small from the outside.

Mazda CX-5 would have the higher ground clearance than the Honda HR-V.

Bigger discounts for end of the year than start of the year

Power is adequate unless you're a speed freak ...

No contest, go for the CX5.

Does the CX-5 Maxx use the same deep cycle batteries as the Mazda 3 and higher end CX-5? If it does, malaking portion ng expense yan when the time comes to replace the battery. How's the feedback on the PMS cost after Yojin3? Kasi sa Honda mas mura ang PMS nila after 3-years, pwede na magtake advantage na ng mga promo nila. Just some thoughts to consider.

If really going for a Honda, it would be much better to get a CRV instead. Please take note that both Honda crossovers have lower ground clearance compared to the competition.

Same engine, same features i-Stop and all. Also 6 airbags, major difference would be fabric instead of leather seats, non-LED headlights, ordinary HU system instead of Mazda connect system.
