The system also includes safeguards that cut engine power in the event that the driver panics and stomps the accelerator instead of the brake pedal. If the driver reacts too slowly, Smart City Brake can automatically grab the brakes in an attempt to prevent or reduce the severity of an imminent collision. If it detects that you're approaching a slowed vehicle too quickly, it will sound an alert and prep the brakes for faster response. The Smart City Brake Support also added as part of the Tech Package uses a laser sensor located behind the rearview mirror to monitor the CX-5's closing speed with the vehicle ahead. The navigation software lives on an SD card stored in a slot to the left of the steering wheel, which can be removed and plugged into an Internet-connected computer to periodically update the IQ Routes traffic algorithm. This is one thing that the TomTom-powered navigation system does extremely well, so take full advantage of it. Tap the microphone icon to initiate the voice command function, say "Drive to an address" and then "2300 Jackson Street, Gary, Indiana," and be on your way. On the bright side, I did enjoy using the TomTom system's voice-command system, which lets you search for points of interest by simply speaking a category name and enter full addresses in one go. So, a trip from point A to B planned at 8am could be different from the same trip planned at 5pm, if historically there's a significant difference between the traffic on that route - for example, it's rush hour on a weekday. Thanks for that.īeing TomTom-powered means the CX-5 uses the company's excellent IQ Routes trip-planning algorithms, which take into account historical and current traffic data supplied anonymously by other TomTom users to plan the best possible route specific to the time the route is being planned. Now tapping the physical NAV button takes you directly back to the live map. Mazda seems to have fixed my previous complaint about not being able to quickly jump back to the main map screen when burrowed deep into the menu structure. There are two different map screens: the live-updating Live Map that is used for navigation, and the second, browsable, scrollable map that is accessible via the menu screen.

For starters, it's more complex than it needs to be. Like every TomTom PND that I've tested, this interface does have its weakness.
