The Mazda CX-5 combines practicality and simplicity with stylish design and has resulted in it being one of their more popular models currently. We calculate the estimated repayment on each of the derivatives.
The Mazda CX-5, currently in its second generation, has garnered much attention and success globally. The model arrived locally in 2017 and in 2019 saw updates applied to bolster the product offering even more. Currently, the Japanese manufacturer offers seven derivatives locally, with three engines servicing the range.
Entry-level to mid-range models come with a 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder petrol motor coupled to a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission. This combination is capable of 121 kW and 213 Nm of torque, while the 2.5-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine in the Individual trim offers 143 kW and 258 Nm and the 2.2-litre, turbocharged diesel unit in the flagship Akera variant develops 140 kW and 450 Nm of torque.
While performance and frugality figures can be found in the related articles listed below, we will investigate the estimated monthly repayment in this article.
Parameters
We will use the AutoTrader Car Finance Calculator to calculate the monthly instalment on a new Mazda CX-5. We have set the terms to 72 months at a 12% interest rate for a more realistic result. We added a 10% deposit and kept the balloon payment residual payment to zero. Please note that this is a mere estimation and that this calculation does not include any bank fees.
Your individual credit record will also significantly affect the monthly repayment and the interest rate provided by the bank. We advise that you apply for finance from various banks to see which one will provide you with the best deal.
Monthly instalments
First up is the entry-level Mazda CX-5 2.0 Active; the model comes fitted with a 6-speed manual transmission and will cost the owner R524 600. Using the formula above, you can expect to pay around R9 230 each month, with the total repayment sum being R664 591 due to the interest accumulated. The automatic iteration of the Mazda CX-5 2.0 Active will set you back R540 200.00, which calculates to a slightly higher monthly sum of R9 505.
The next tier up in the range is the automatic Mazda CX-5 2.0 Dynamic, which will set owners back R575 000. On a monthly basis, the model will cost owners an estimated R10 117.
Early in 2021, the Japanese automaker added a Mazda CX-5 2.0 Carbon Edition, priced at R651 800.00, making a monthly instalment of R11 469. The only 2.5 model in the range is the 2.5 AWD Individual, which retails for R742 300, making its monthly instalment R13 061.
The flagship offering, the Mazda CX-5 2.2DE AWD Akera, comes with a retail price of R778 700, which, if you want to pay it off over 72 months, will result in an instalment of R13 701.
