Mazda North American Operations (MNAO) today announces pricing and packaging
for the 2026 CX-5. Now in its third generation, the all-new CX-5 builds upon its standout values that have made it
Mazda’s best-selling vehicle in the U.S., with an emphasis on adept driving dynamics, a quiet, refined cabin; and
Mazda's unwavering commitment to vehicle and occupant safety.
Visually, the new CX-5 retains a familiar silhouette to previous CX-5 models, while also pushing the design forward.
The latest expression of Kodo design sees key elements like the Signature Wing front grille now flanked by LED
headlights with a two-tiered DRL lighting signature. Other elements, like the long 110-inch wheelbase, aggressive
front fascia and use of the new wide set ‘Mazda’ script in lieu of conventional badging telegraph a sense of visual
width and stability. Customers will also enjoy a curated color palette, which includes popular favorites, like the
available Soul Red Crystal and Polymetal Gray Metallic, along with a new standard color in Navy Blue Mica.
At launch, CX-5 will be powered by Mazda’s venerable SkyActiv-G 2.5L inline four-cylinder engine, which produces
187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque, and is paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission and standard i-Activ allwheel drive (AWD). The proven powertrain receives a string of updates engineered to provide an even more
intuitive interaction between driver inputs and vehicle response. Mazda Intelligent Drive Select (Mi-Drive) allows
the driver to choose between Normal, Sport and Off-Road drive modes, which can optimize the performance of
transmission and AWD system for varying driving conditions. Coupled with this is an improved ride and handling
package which sees new shock absorbers paired with a new wheel and tire setup, and the latest version of GVectoring Control Plus (GVC+) which now incorporates an electronic brake limited-slip differential to improve
traction in challenging conditions or on your favorite scenic drive.
Inside the cabin, CX-5 offers a sense of calm and reassurance. Not only is the new CX-5 quieter than the outgoing
model, but the interactions between the vehicle and occupants have been thoroughly considered to offer a simple,
streamlined experience. A key component of that experience for many customers is the technology suite, which is
comprised of features like a large driver’s display, an available head up display projected on the windshield and
12.9-inch or available 15.6-inch center infotainment display. This latest iteration of the Mazda Connect system
features an intuitive smartphone-like user interface based on Google built-in technology with the ability to handle
many in-car controls via voice command, which allows the driver to remain firmly focused on the road ahead with
reduced distraction.
All CX-5 models feature a comprehensive suite of standard safety and driver assistance features such as Mazda
Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) with Speed Limit Assist, Traffic Sign Recognition, Rear Smart Brake Support and Rear
Cross Traffic Alert with Pedestrian Detection, Smart Brake Support (SBS Front) and Turn-Across Traffic alert,
Emergency Lane Keeping (Blind Spot Assist, Road Keep Assist and Head-on Traffic Avoidance), Blind Spot
Monitoring, Vehicle Exit Warning, a Driver Attention Alert which can detect driver distraction of fatigue, along with
parking sensors (front and rear), and a rearview camera with dynamic lines and tow hitch guide for easier parking
and low speed towing maneuvers.
