Thinking of buying a 2017/18 CX5 GT
So the details on 2018 updates are not yet clear - at least to me.
Its down to a Forester Touring (coming out of an Outback) or the CX5 GT with Premium pack.
I want the rear sensors but most GT's in stock locally don't have them - it it possible to retrofit them?
Does the "hold" button near the gear selector lock the gear its in or the AWD ratio. I want to be able to hold in AWD going down my local icy roads.
As I read the brochure / spec sheet the transmission is not CVT is that correct?
Thanks for any input

In my market all CX-5's have rear park sensors. I suggest ringing your local dealer & see if sensors are an option.
The hold button holds the brakes on when i-stop kicks in. Nothing to do with AWD.
AWD has a six speed Auto, no CVT ****.

Copied from Australian Owners manual
The AUTOHOLD function automatically holds the vehicle stopped, even if you take your
foot off the brake pedal. This function can be best used while stopped in traffic or at a traffic
light. The brakes are released when you resume driving the vehicle such as by releasing the
clutch pedal with the shift lever shifted to a position other than the neutral position (manual
transaxle vehicle) or depressing the accelerator pedal (automatic transaxle vehicle).
