Capabilities
Little will be able to stop the Mazda CX-5 from reaching its destination, as this model comes equipped with a vast sum of powerful mechanics. This includes the standard 2.5L 4-cylinder engine, which unveils up to 187 horsepower and 186 lb.-ft. of torque on your travels. To make sure this spirited energy is put to good use, know that this model also employs a standard 6-speed automatic transmission. That way, your handling is both smooth and responsive throughout Punta Gorda. And whenever you experience a brisk downpour, the standard i-ACTIV AWD® system will spring into action by dynamically applying torque to avoid a loss in traction. We’d like to add that there are standard MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspension systems with stabilizer bars as well, allowing you to endure uneven terrain with grace.
Comfort
There are few better ways to unwind than at the helm of the 2026 Mazda CX-5. The cabin has been thoughtfully crafted with a user-friendly design philosophy. One example of this is the standard dual-zone automatic climate control system, which allows for separate temperatures for you and your copilot. Your efforts toward maintaining a comfortable environment within the cabin can be further bolstered by the available heated and ventilated front-row seats. You’ll also surely love the look and feel of this cabin. That’s because the standard leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, alongside the optional leather-trimmed seating surfaces, will foster an elegant appeal. Clearly, you will not find yourself lacking in relaxation as you cross I-75.
Safety
The designers of the Mazda CX-5 did not think for a second to sacrifice on its protective qualities. This is why you’ll find a bevy of standard safety features in every facet. Within the interior, you will find LATCH rear seat, child-safety seat anchors and upper tethers to keep children in place on drives to Ponce De Leon Park. On the instrument cluster, you will find that there is a Tire Pressure Monitoring System, which helps you keep track of when you need to add more air to your wheels. And to help take some stress off of day-to-day piloting, you have the Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop and Go and Speed Limit Assist1 at your command. Fitting into tight parking spaces will also be no issue, especially with the use of the front and rear parking sensors2.
