2026 CX-5 Software Updates
I took delivery of the 2026 CX-5 back in May, and had the software updated 3 times already. The reason for the updates had all been because of the cellular data connectivity issues. My August 12 update finally fixed the data connectivity issue, but the hotspot still wouldn't work. My September 8 update still didn't fix the hotspot issue, BUT the engine performance seemed to have noticeable improvement. It used to be sluggish with acceleration from low speed, consistent with what I read -- that the redesigned model being bigger and heaver but still the same engine would compromise the performance. Now after this third update, I can feel the good old Mazda zoom-zoom again.
Has anyone experienced the same. Or was it just my imagination?
