My wife used to drive this CX5 on a more relaxed way, probably it got used to her way of driving it.

I'll be the first to admit I have a leadfoot. I used to work with w guy who marveled that he could leave work 5 to 10 minutes before me and I'd pass him on my motorcycle before he got to town. I've never felt a lack of power from the 2.5. However, I do work with traffic. With heavy cross traffic from two directions, I turn right, go down a bit then turn left at a light. Turn around in a parking lot then come out and turn right to go the way I originally wanted to go.

Otherwise Mazda can carry out a reset/relearn of the TCM using their MMDS scan tool.
