I have the 2015 maxsport (Australia) and it does, and I did the upgrade to get android auto working. I too was looking for this specifically and was using photos on the car sale websites to spot it. what I looked for was the electric hand brake, and if there was the dials and buttons for the infotainment system near that. why I was looking for these is that the touch screen version need sto Anything and Everything Mazda CX-5. Place for CX-5 owners to discuss their cars, modifications, support, etc. a custom firmware to enable touch screen while in Mazda CX-30 safety features. The 2021 Mada CX-30 is praised for coming with a long list of standard safety features that work well. Standard features include lane departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, driver attention alert, radar cruise control with stop and go, and high beam control. 2020 CX-5 Gnd T. Nov 28, 2021. #11. Since this thread began, the infotainment system in my CX-5 has gone mute a few times while using CarPlay with no explanation. One time all audio sources lost audio (USB, FM. you-name-it). Restarting the car didn't fix it. Restarting the phone has fixed it but not all the time. The vehicle is making a sharp turn. Strong light reflects off the road. A traffic sign is in a position which makes it difficult to reflect the light from the vehicle's headlights, such as when the vehicle is driven at night or in a tunnel. The vehicle is driven under weather conditions such as rain, fog, or snow. Mazda's website seems to suggest that the preferred plus has a touch screen. 2. Sort by: alltheseposes. • 51 min. ago. Touch screen is available with CarPlay or Android Auto. It’s disabled when moving by default but that can be toggled off, though you’ll still have to use the knob for the Mazda menus. r/CX5. If you buy a 2021.5 or 2022 CX-5 you benefit from a bigger infotainment screen and newer software. Cheers! SaulTNuhtz • 1 yr. ago. For 2017-2020 models the infotainment is touchscreen. Touchscreen is only enabled while stopped. 2021 through current removes touch capability, screen is wider, and UI has been refreshed. My girlfriend just bought a 2021 Mazda CX-5 and we would both prefer that the touchscreen was functional. Wherever we look online it was stated that it had a touch screen but really it’s just a display screen which was very misleading. It really wouldn’t be all that bad, but the control knob and volume knob are just in an awful position. VtEv.
