2025 MAZDA CX-50

Overview
Explore further and feel confident doing it in the stylish 2025 Mazda CX-50. It’s a crossover SUV that doesn’t feel like a compact vehicle when it’s out on the open road. The engine is responsive and downright perky, getting you going faster so you don’t lose out on a closing gap. Some people consider it a luxury entry-level option, but the model is also quite athletic and sporty. Straddle the line between youthfulness and mature style with an exterior look that will draw attention. Like Mazda’s smaller vehicles are famous for, the CX-50 has advanced maneuverability and the finely tuned suspension that makes this brand so popular. It’s also packed with fun and functional tech features that will keep you and your passengers happy on long road trips.
Who's It For?
Drivers who want more seating than the smaller side of the Mazda lineup can offer, but without giving up the fun of driving. A range of trim levels and options allow you to add as much luxury as you want or strip it down to the bare necessities. If you like to adventure outside of the city and need to tow along a few thousand pounds of gear, the CX-50 has you covered. There’s no need to settle for a less-than-inspired interior either just to get the compact space of a crossover SUV. This Mazda features plenty of legroom and head space while keeping the footprint small for easy parking in tight spaces. If you need an all-around daily driving vehicle that is showy enough to make a good first impression, consider the CX-50.

Real World Performance
A four-cylinder 2.5-liter engine is the standard option for the Mazda CX-50 this year. It produces 187 horsepower, but the higher-level engine is a better choice for more drivers. It’s turbocharged and produces 256 horsepower instead. You’ll get the best possible driving experience with the engine upgrade, along with the optional all-wheel drive. Zooming around town in the Turbo trim package will also unlock the highest possible towing capacity for when you want to head out to the mountains or the lake. The interior upgrades like leather upholstery and a panoramic sunroof don’t hurt either.
