The trailer didn't interest me at all with the overuse of CGI
It is typical for trailers to be released while production is still in progress. Fury road had a TON of CGI, but it's impossible to tell because by release the work was completed. People don't realize how much CGI goes into movies these days and assume it's all practical FX.
Fury road had a lot of practical effects though. Obviously there's still a lot of cgi of shots that is either impossible to do for real, or to enhance the effects and the scene, but almost all the action was all done the same way the originals were done in the 80s.

It's a mix of practical and VFX. The VFX production team on Fury road was huge. The reality is good CGI is impossible to discern from practical. There's more to VFX than green screens.
No CGI is just invisible CGI
