Is the Mazda CX-5 a small SUV?

My lease is almost up on my large SUV and it’s too big for me. I need to downgrade to a smaller model but want to stick with Mazda. I really like the CX-5. Is the Mazda CX-5 a compact SUV?

The
Mazda CX-5
is a compact SUV. In fact, it’s considered by many to be one of the best small SUVs on the market. The 2022 CX-5 received some upgrades and something of a refresh:
  • Updates to its transmission, suspension, and seats
  • A new 2.5 L four-cylinder engine produces a more responsive driving experience
It has a fuel economy of 24 mpg, which isn’t overly impressive but good enough for the average driver. It also features an elegant interior, lots of standard safety features, and excellent handling. Higher trims come with a more turbocharged engine that generates greater power.
On the downside, the exterior design reduces rear and side visibility. Some owners have noted that he infotainment system needs some getting used to.
If you’re shopping for a compact SUV, the 2022 CX-5 is a great choice for most people, families, and driving styles. And going from a large SUV to a compact model is the perfect time to review your
