The Mazda CX-5 is one of the best large SUVs you can buy. Why? Well, while it lacks the additional practicality of seven seats the Peugeot 5008 comes with as standard, it's well priced, very well equipped, safe and classy inside. The 2.0 petrol in entry-level SE-L trim offers the best value for money, but the diesels are well worth a look if you do above average mileage.
The most powerful petrol engine may have 191bhp but it's not that much faster than the entry-level engine. It does, however, drink more fuel so we don’t think it’s worth the extra investment. If four-wheel drive and the off-road mode are important to you, you’ll have to go with this one.
At What Car?, we believe that no one should overpay for their new car, which is why we created our free New Car Buying service. This links you with trusted local dealers who base their offers on prices haggled by our mystery shoppers.
