The 2025 Mazda CX-5 is a stylish and highly desirable compact crossover SUV that offers a driving experience that sets it apart from the competition. If you’re searching for a new crossover SUV with impeccable style, quality, advanced technology, and engaging driving characteristics, the 2025 Mazda CX-5 could be your ideal choice. Its striking design is easily recognizable whether you’re cruising around Oxnard or commuting to Venture, Camarillo, Port Hueneme, Santa Paula, or any California destination.
Unlike many rival vehicles that limit you to just two or three trims, the 2025 Mazda CX-5 lineup offers a variety of options to match a huge variety of tastes and budgets. The range begins with the entry-level 2.5 S and reaches up to the luxurious 2.5 Turbo Signature trim at the top of the line. If the Turbo Signature is beyond your budget, but you want more than the entry-level 2.5 S offers, the lineup has no fewer than six others to consider. In ascending order, those trim levels are the 2.5 S Select, 2.5 S Preferred, 2.5 S Carbon Edition, 2.5 S Premium Plus, 2.5 Carbon Turbo, and 2.5 Turbo Premium.
The 2025 Mazda CX-5 offers two engine choices. The standard 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine delivers 187 horsepower and 186 lb.-ft. of torque, providing ample power for most driving situations. The turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, standard for all “Turbo” models, is a substantial upgrade for those seeking more performance. It generates 227 horsepower and 310 lb.-ft. of torque on regular fuel, but with premium 93 octane, it boosts output to 256 horsepower and 320 lb.-ft. of torque. Both engines pair with a six-speed automatic transmission featuring manual and sport modes, ensuring a responsive and engaging driving experience. Additionally, G-Vectoring Control Plus comes standard, enhancing handling by adjusting power distribution to the wheels for optimal traction and stability.
The interior of the 2025 Mazda CX-5 can be said to genuinely rival many luxury SUVs, offering high-quality materials and outstanding craftsmanship that make every ride an event. The suspension is tuned to be comfortable and responsive, like the Goldilocks of suspension setups. Models like the 2.5 Carbon Turbo add a sporty touch with features like a black headliner, terracotta leather-trimmed seats with black suede-like inserts, and contrasting seat and door panel stitching. On the other hand, the Turbo Signature trim is fully loaded with luxurious touches like Caturra Brown Nappa leather, wood and chrome accents, and ambient lighting. The tech suite is equally impressive, with features like on- and off-road navigation, a surround-view camera system, front and rear parking sensors, and heated and ventilated front seats. Safety is also a priority, with the latest i-Activsense features, including Smart City Brake Support Reverse and Driver Attention Alert.
The 2025 Mazda CX-5‘s exterior styling will always capture your attention, but the interior features, quality, and driving dynamics will truly impress you and your passengers.
