Yes the title is correct and immediately think unfair! We don&#8217;t think so because they are very similar in terms of size and price. So the the new Qashqai better when compared to the CX-5?<\/p>\n<p>Nissan Qashqai Vs Mazda CX-5 exterior comparison: The new Qashqai is a combination of all the latest styling elements and it works well. However being essentially generic means it blends in with it competitors. We are calling it the new conservative look for 2023. In comparison the CX-5 still looks pretty good being sporty and more premium than the Qashqai and this is regardless of model grade.<\/p>\n<p>Nissan Qashqai Vs Mazda CX-5 interior comparison: The Qahqai has a nice interior that looks and most feels pretty good. However the design is generic so it could belong to any number of brands. The Mazda interior is the same but different and the most obvious difference are mostly physical gauges rather than a full display screen, until the next model gets released. Although a few years older it honestly flees and feels like a Japanese luxury interior in some models without the price tag.<\/p>\n<p>Nissan Qashqai Vs Mazda CX-5 engine and technology comparison: Mazda designs and manufactures the most advanced non-turbo engines in the world. The engines make the most power and the most fuel efficient for their type. They have also equipped them with conventional but updated automatic and manual gearboxes. The CX-5 is a nice drive just like the entire and current Mazda model range. \u00a0In comparison Qashqai has borrowed the Renault Nissan Mitsubishi group carry over engines and a CVT but hopefully they will be more reliable than the last generation. I guess we are saying the the drive experience is quite ordinary.<\/p>\n<p>The conclusion and winner of the Nissan Qashqai Vs Mazda CX-5 comparison is the CX-5. For the price in 2023 the CX-5 is the better and cheaper option for many model grades. The selling point of the CX-5 is the driving experience. It is more connected and adjustable handler than most competitors &#8211; this factor is the selling point. Many self proclaimed professional reviews say or dishonestly claim that the the Mazdas are noisy, drone etc.. \u00a0&#8211; however we know that&#8217;s not true and they aren&#8217;t silent but they aren&#8217;t noisy either. Go for a test drive and see what you think. Another myth due to the lack of english vocabulary or bias the Mazda CX-5 suspension works really well. Sure it&#8217;s firmer than most but it not harsh and it truly absorbs bumps and handles corners where as other models like the Qashqai crash through or see saw on the bumps. Finally there is the unreasonable pricing of the Qashqai which is expensive for it&#8217;s size and performance. The CX-5 is a nicer and faster drive that looks and feels premium &#8211; dependent on model grade.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<table style=\"width: 700px;\" border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><span style=\"color: #446d8c;\"><b>Nissan Qashqai<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><span style=\"color: #446d8c;\"><b>Mazda CX-5<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-12055 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/dixonarchive.com\/motorblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/22_nissan_qashqai_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"260\" height=\"170\" \/><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7649\" src=\"http:\/\/dixonarchive.com\/motorblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018_cx5_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"260\" height=\"170\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><span style=\"color: #446d8c;\"><strong>Engines<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\">4 Cylinder Petrol (95 Octane)<br \/>\nDOHC EFI VVT Turbo<br \/>\n1.3 Litre (1332cc)<br \/>\nClaimed 110Kw @ 5500RPM<br \/>\nClaimed 250Nm @ 1600RPM<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\">IL4 Cylinder Petrol<br \/>\nDOHC EFI VVT<br \/>\n2.0 Litre (1996cc)<br \/>\nClaimed 114Kw @ 6000RPM<br \/>\nClaimed 200Nm @ 4000RPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\">IL4 Cylinder Petrol<br \/>\n2.5 Litre (2488cc)<br \/>\nDOHC Engine EFI<br \/>\nClaimed 138Kw @ 5700RPM<br \/>\nClaimed 250Nm @ 4000RPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\">IL 4 Cylinder Twin Turbo Diesel<br \/>\nDI CR EFI<br \/>\n2.2 Litre (2191cc)<br \/>\nClaimed 129Kw @ 4500RPM<br \/>\nClaimed 420Nm @ 2000RPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\">IL4 Cylinder Turbo Petrol<br \/>\n2.5 Litre (2488cc)<br \/>\nDOHC VVT EFI IC<br \/>\nClaimed 170Kw @ 5000RPM<br \/>\nClaimed 420Nm @ 2000RPM<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><span style=\"color: #446d8c;\"><strong>Weight<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\">Kerb weight FROM 1452 Kg<br \/>\nTowing capacity up to 1500kg<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\">FROM 1511 Kg<br \/>\nTowing capacity up to 1800kg<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" width=\"288\"><span style=\"color: #446d8c;\"><strong>Fuel capacity &amp;
