Unmatched Performance and Efficiency 

The 2024 Mazda CX-5 compact SUV offers two engine options depending on the trim you choose. The standard 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine makes 187 horsepower and 185 lb-ft of torque and goes from zero to sixty in a flat 8.0 seconds. Not bad for a naturally aspirated compact SUV, especially when you consider the CX-5 comes with standard AWD in all trims. CX-5 SUVs with the standard engine yield an impressive 26 mpg city and 31 mpg highway, thanks to Mazda’s i-Stop technology. 

Available Mazda Intelligent Drive Select technology (Mi-Drive) allows you to customize your drive modes along various roads and surfaces.

Trims with “turbo” in their name, received a turbocharged version of the 2.5-liter four-banger and delivers a grin-inducing 256 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque when fueled with 93-octane premium gas. Regular fuel produces 227 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, which is plenty powerful by itself. Fuel Economy comes out to 22 mpg city and 27 mpg highway. Good numbers considering its ample power and AWD nature.
