Engine Options

The 2025 CX-5 offers two engine choices to suit different driving preferences. The standard 2.5L four-cylinder engine puts out 187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque. Higher trims come with a 2.5L four-cylinder turbocharged engine that generates 227 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque.

Both engines are paired with a smooth-shifting six-speed automatic transmission. The standard engine provides plenty of power for everyday driving, while the turbo option adds an extra dose of excitement for those who crave more performance.

Performance and Handling

The 2025 CX-5 continues Mazda's tradition of creating vehicles that are enjoyable to drive. The standard i-ACTIV AWD system provides excellent traction in various weather conditions. G-Vectoring Control Plus technology enhances handling and stability, making the CX-5 feel nimble and responsive.

For those who want a more engaging driving experience, some trims offer a Sport mode. This adjusts the vehicle's settings for more spirited driving, perfect for when you want to have a bit of fun on a winding road.

Fuel Economy

The CX-5 offers respectable fuel economy for its class. Here's what you can expect:

• Non-turbo models: 23 mpg city/29 mpg highway
• Turbo models: 22 mpg city/27 mpg highway

While not class-leading, these numbers are competitive, especially considering the standard AWD. The slight dip in efficiency for the turbo models is a fair trade-off for the boost in performance.
