On the performance front, the 2023 Mazda CX-70 will likely offer two hybrid engine options. The first option is an inline-six gasoline engine with a 48-volt hybrid system, which generates 300 hp. The second option is a plug-in-hybrid powertrain with a 2.5-liter inline-four engine. It produces 323 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque, with the ability to drive on electric-only power for up to an estimated 39 miles.
The CX-70 features an all-new platform that has a longitudinal engine layout. Advantages of this layout include better performance, handling, and refinement — similar to what one might find in a luxury SUV from Mercedes or BMW, not a typical mainstream SUV model. Also, while the new platform could be configured for either a rear-wheel drive or an all-wheel drive system, the CX-70 will likely come standard with all-wheel drive.
