The industry is in flux, it is dynamic, and by general agreement the cars it produces are better than ever!

2019 COMPACT SUV OF THE YEAR: Mazda CX-5
Finalists: Toyota RAV4 – Honda CR-V

"Its driving dynamics are positive, its braking sharp, and its interior is comfortable and noticeably improved this year."

- Marc Bouchard, Auto123.com

"The second-generation CX-5... delivers an excellent driving experience, in fact it’s dynamic like no other model in it segment. Then there’s the impressive interior roominess of the CX-5, and its ability to sip gasoline in comparison with its rivals.

- Daniel Rufiange, Auto123.com

"It has the best steering of the bunch, the best looks and more interior room than previous, made all that more accessible by the 40/20/40 split folding rear seat."

- Dan Heyman, Auto123.com
