When you embark on your Cape Coral travels with the 2026 Mazda CX-5, you will quickly recognize that it’s no ordinary vehicle! This model stands out from the crowd with its vibrant energy, sophisticated cabin, and cutting-edge security measures. Our experts at Mazda of Port Charlotte are ready to show you the plentiful benefits offered by this compact SUV.
Performance
At the heart of the Mazda CX-5’s dependable operation is a standard SKYACTIV®-G1 2.5L 4-cylinder engine that supplies 187 horsepower and 186 lb.-ft. of torque. This strength is conveyed to the wheels through the standard SKYACTIV®-Drive1 6-speed automatic transmission, which incorporates a manual shift mode for active engagement. During your I-75 commute, this model’s standard fuel economy rating of 24/30 MPG city/hwy2 will enable you to cut down on pit stops. In addition to its efficiency, the standard i-ACTIV AWD®3 system boasts enhanced traction, allowing you to cross rough terrain with confidence. The standard MacPherson strut front suspension and multi-link rear suspension are each equipped with a stabilizer bar, so the Mazda CX-5 delivers a smooth and serene ride.
Interior
When you crown the 2026 Mazda CX-5 with an available power sliding-glass panoramic moonroof, you’ll be able to let in a cool breeze at the press of a button. Arguments over the air conditioning won’t put a damper on your trips to Fellowship Park, since the standard dual-zone automatic climate control system can satisfy each occupant of the front row. You can bask in this comfortable atmosphere from the optional 10-way power-adjustable driver’s chair. The pilot’s seat can be upgraded with available memory settings, making it easy to return to your preferred position after sharing the car with a loved one. Last but not least, the Mazda CX-5’s optional leather upholstery ensures that elegance doesn’t fall by the wayside.
Safety
The Mazda CX-5 prepares you to face potential challenges on the road by supplying you with a variety of advanced driver assistance tools. While the standard Blind Spot Monitoring4 alerts you to the presence of nearby cars before you merge, the Rear Cross Traffic Alert4 performs the same service when you are reversing in a busy area. For a helpful overhead image of your vehicle’s exterior and surroundings, refer to the available 360-Degree View Monitor5. Once you reach your destination, the standard Vehicle Exit Warning4 will prevent your passengers from opening the door if busy traffic makes it dangerous to do so.
