Description: Mazda added the CX-8 to its SUV line-up this year. It sits in between a five-seater CX-5 and the large seven-seater CX-9, in that it has seven seats but it's not as big as a CX-9. It's smaller, so a bit easier to manoeuvre.

Mazda added the CX-8 to its SUV line-up this year. It sits in between a five-seater CX-5 and the large seven-seater CX-9, in that it has seven seats but it’s not as big as a CX-9. It’s smaller, so a bit easier to manoeuvre.

It’s in the same category as the Tiguan Allspace and Hyundai Santa Fe because you would mainly use it as a five seater, with the two extra seats in the back only called into action when you need them.

I got to test the CX-8 Asaki which is the top of the range, on a week that we were driving two hours out of Sydney to stay with another family on a mini-break, so really got to see the full range (or limitations) of the car. Here’s how it did driving my family around in the country and the city, over the seven days of testing.
