Why Pick the 2019 Mazda CX-5?
After reviewing this comparison sheet, there is no denying the impressive specs of the Rav4, Rogue and the Mazda CX-5, each claiming a few wins over the other. The Rav4 is tuned a bit more “rough and tumble” for off-roading adventures, while the Rogue comes in underpowered in comparison. Note that the Mazda CX-5 finds that perfect middle ground with a slew of standard interior comfort and convenience features that are either unavailable on the Rav4 and Rogue or are optional. Add just a few of those options to the already more expensive RAV4 or Rogue and the price tag escalates quite fast. For your urban Long Island lifestyle, the 2019 Mazda CX-5 is your clear choice!
