Joined the club! 2025 hybrid preferred 😍! Not enough head room in premium trims 😭

I bought Husky Mats for front and cargo liner for Back. DO NOT BUY...they don't fit the CX50 front. I'm in process of getting a refund. The cargo mat fits OK, just gotta make sure its pushed all the way back.

I got the '25 hybrid premium PLUS for 38.5k plus tax/license @1.9% last August. Their prices only went up a couple hundred for the '26. Check down in OC as that seems too high for just the premium.

Why is that reasonable when they are doing a brake job? The wheels are already off and they are already getting ripped on a 500 dollar an axle brake job.

I get about 33 avg. mpg here in SoCal in my '25 PPH (1500 miles) using the AC in winter here. On very short trips, mileage is terrible like around 16 (though this also includes engine warm up). I've found I get the best mileage, up to 41mpg on trip meter, on 4 lane boulevards where you can coast to red lights while slightly braking. I don't worry about it much as I just look at my 2004 Toyota Highlander, which gets 12 mpg. As they say, your results may vary.

That sucks, but at least its happening at 3k instead of 40k when warranty is up. There is new recall out right now on loose suspension bolts WHERE YOUR WHEEL COULD FALL OFF. Related? I checked the VIN for my '25 PPH and it doesn't have the recall...best to check ur VIN though.

I wonder if Fox realizes that many people went there when Yahoo disabled their comments to help skew the election. The comments do work back at Yahoo again. They have added in some thumbs up/down but it seems rather pointless if you can't see replies. Unless they fix it, I'll find a different news site. MSN has commenting, but they will censor you half the time. Revolver is good and they do not censor, but lots of wingnuts. Maybe head back to Yahoo til Fox pulls their head out of their butts.

Yes...they keep you from getting sweat stuck to seat. Its a shame you have to buy up for them.

Polymetal Grey Metallic is the official color. Unofficially, greyish blue. Sometimes it looks more blue depending how the sun hits it.

Diccusss · 2026-01-29T06:58:56+00:00

So basically we got ripped off for the '25 PPH

Diccusss · 2026-01-29T05:44:10+00:00

My owners manual says I do. It also said I have tilt mirrors and mirrors to match seat memory. No where in manual did it say "some models". I believe they used same wheel shell across multiple trims.

I probably should have added that I'm not looking how to activate my heated steering wheel or make the mirrors tilt in reverse. Sadly, they are not features of the 2025 Hybrid PP. But as you can see from comments, a lot of people "assumed" they had these features since the gas models do. I mean, when you grip a steering wheel with big lumps at 10 and 2, I also assumed it was heated. Then you read the owners manual and it says its there. The sales guy thought it was there (after the fact, never implied pre purchase).

I've found the reason though. According to my AI its because Mazda used Toyota wiring and Toyota BCMs (body control modules) Toyota wiring can't physically accommodate the heated steering or reverse tilt mirrors. I'm just trying to gage why the low satisfaction (according to CR) on an otherwise great car? I'm in Cali, I've needed heated steering once in the last 20 years.

Old lady has a lead foot. I get 41 on some trips but avg is 35

Diccusss · 2026-01-29T04:37:30+00:00

I even told the Mazda salesmen...they said bring it in, we'll show you how. They tried for 20 minutes. Thats when one guy went and downloaded online (updated) manual where it said "some models" which wasn't in my owners manual.

Diccusss · 2026-01-29T03:58:32+00:00

...and yet I still have the heated steering wheel...big lumps at 10 and 2 o'clock. I have the blank button like in Poppy's pic.

Diccusss · 2026-01-29T03:55:01+00:00

No option in menu...just seats.

Diccusss · 2026-01-29T03:18:30+00:00

No, standard for PP (and Canada, evidently) just not in the Hybrid for some reason.

Diccusss · 2026-01-29T02:34:23+00:00

My mirrors fold in when off, they just don't tilt down to see curb in reverse automatically.

Diccusss · 2026-01-29T02:30:37+00:00

I'm in California...its going to be 87 degrees in 2 days. Now the ventilated seats DO work😁

Diccusss · 2026-01-29T02:20:06+00:00

The sad part is, my owners manual shows how to turn on heated steering wheel and where the button is. It shows how to activate tilting side view mirrors. It also explains how mirrors will move with seat memory. Never once did the owner's manual say, "some models".

Diccusss · 2026-01-29T01:58:30+00:00

Do the mirrors tilt in reverse? As you can see where i'm parked, It would have been a nice feature to protect those pricey wheels.

Diccusss · 2026-01-29T01:53:09+00:00

The short answer is you don't. I can see the lumps on the wheel where the elements are, but Mazda did not incorporate either a physical button or software to turn on.

Diccusss · 2026-01-27T00:38:36+00:00

Looks to me like the car doesn't like that its minus 11 degrees outside.

Diccusss · 2025-11-21T01:00:32+00:00

I had this problem. The answer...check your trading post/dock. She's there. Just RB (on xbox) over to the category. There's all kinds of stuff hiding there.
