Power & Performance
At the moment, these two eye-catching Mazda SUVs carry the same powerful engine options, including a 187-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder and a 250-horsepower turbocharged version. However, as we approach the Mazda CX-50 model's much-anticipated release, you'll likely hear news of an additional hybrid powertrain. No matter which model or engine you choose, you'll find smooth and responsive shifting from a six-speed automatic transmission.
The new Mazda CX-50 showcases a new focus on adventure-ready capability with standard i-ACTIV® AWD and access to a new off-road driving mode with Mazda Intelligent Drive Select (Mi-Drive). You can tackle rougher terrain with additional off-roading performance, higher ground clearance, and a firmer suspension. Although the Mazda CX-5 impresses with a towing capacity of 2,000 pounds, you can expect to haul heavier loads with the Mazda CX-50.


Design
Although the Mazda CX-50 rides on the same platform as the Mazda CX-5, its longer dimensions provide additional legroom for your rear-seat passengers. Plus, it adds extra width to accommodate even more cargo. Meanwhile, the Mazda CX-5 offers a more aggressive aesthetic sure to turn heads around Wiscasset with black wheel cladding and unique front and rear bumpers. You'll also want to keep an eye out for the all-new Meridian Edition that offers a more rugged design with 18-inch wheels, all-terrain tires, and distinctive hood graphics.
Similar to the rest of the lineup, you can expect the Mazda CX-50 to offer a luxurious interior with the same two-row, five-seat layout as the Mazda CX-5. As you explore the trims, you'll find eye-catching design features, including leather upholstery, an all-new panoramic sunroof, and a convenient roof rack.
Tech & Safety
Although much of the technology and safety updates haven't been released just yet, you can expect the new Mazda CX-50 to offer similar, if not more advanced, connectivity features as the latest Mazda CX-5. This will most likely include a user-friendly infotainment system displayed on a large interface and equipped with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. Plus, you'll find other convenient features, including a subscription-based Wi-Fi hotspot and Mazda Connected Services.
Whether you choose to bring home the Mazda CX-50 or Mazda CX-5, you'll have access to a wide range of advanced driver-assistance features. These helpful systems use a variety of cameras, sensors, and radars to help you keep track of the world around you. Plus, they can make your morning commutes and long road trips more convenient while keeping you and your family safe from potential hazards or collisions. Some of these intuitive features include Automated Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Lane-Departure Warning with Lane-Keeping Assist, and Adaptive Cruise Control.
