2013 Mazda CX-5 2.2L Diesel · AY62 FZD

As a 2.2L diesel, the CX-5 is designed for efficiency on longer journeys, though running costs will be influenced by its weight and engine size. You should expect moderate fuel economy typical of a mid-sized SUV. Tax and insurance groups will vary depending on the specific trim level, but the 2191cc engine generally places it in a mid-range bracket.

Maintenance costs for a vehicle of this age and mileage should be budgeted for more frequently. Expect to encounter costs related to wear-and-tear items such as brakes, tyres, and suspension components. An estimated annual running cost, covering fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, is approximately £1,800-£2,400 depending on annual mileage.

Based on aggregate data for this model, pay close attention to the suspension system, specifically looking for worn suspension arms or broken coil springs, which are frequent MOT failure reasons for the CX-5. Even though this specific vehicle has had no recent failures, these components are subject to significant wear on high-mileage SUVs.

Additionally, inspect the tyres for even wear, as tyre defects are a top reason for failure in the wider Mazda CX-5 sample. Given the diesel engine and the 125,774 miles recorded, a thorough check of the underside for any signs of oil leaks or exhaust corrosion is highly recommended during a test drive.
