Now is your chance to add the 2026 Mazda CX-50 to your daily travels without having to pay for the vehicle’s total cost. Learn why leasing may be the right choice for you from our Finance Department at Mazda of Port Charlotte, conveniently located near North Port.
Leasing
Getting a lease for a Mazda CX-50 presents you with a variety of benefits, starting with a higher level of flexibility than with buying. After all, when the 2- to 4-year contract ends, you can lease another vehicle from us, turn in the car you’ve been driving, or buy out the remaining value of the compact SUV. This sort of agreement has more direct advantages for drivers as well, including lower monthly payments and the opportunity to drive a factory-fresh vehicle in superb condition by submitting a lower down payment. Aside from your agreed-upon installments, you’re responsible for bringing in the car for routine maintenance and staying under the mileage limit you decide upon with our team.
Performance
Moving on to why the 2026 Mazda CX-50 outshines other vehicles, look no further than the engine bay. Tucked inside is a standard SKYACTIV®1-G 2.5L 4-cylinder unit that makes 187 horsepower and 185 lb.-ft. of torque. If you feel the need to have even more output at your command, upgrade to the available SKYACTIV®1-G 2.5L twin-turbo 4-cylinder engine, which can produce 256 horsepower and 320 lb.-ft. of torque when using premium fuel blends. Every trim includes a standard i-Activ AWD2 drivetrain to maximize the vehicle’s grip on I-75, even when it’s raining. You’ll also have the standard SKYACTIV®1-Drive 6-speed automatic transmission with a manual shift mode to help this vehicle rapidly gain speed, so you can pass slower drivers when the need arises. Taking a trailer full of camping gear is also within the realm of possibilities delivered by this SUV by way of its 3,500-lb. maximum towing capacity3
Technology
Every time you travel, the tech features in this vehicle will give you the balance of information, connectivity, and entertainment you require. The standard wireless Apple CarPlay®4 and Android Auto™4 compatibility lets you or one of your passengers link a smartphone to the Mazda CX-50. The apps on that device can then play music through the available Bose® 12-speaker surround sound system with Centerpoint® and AudioPilot®, providing a lively atmosphere for your travels to Myakka State Forest. Finding your way to your next destination is as simple as using the apps on your phone to activate your preferred navigation tools, and the directions will appear on the standard 10.25-inch full-color infotainment display on the vehicle’s dashboard. Don’t worry about draining the battery in your device, though, since this model comes with four standard USB charging points as well as a standard wireless phone charger5!
