The Mazda CX-5 comes with hill launch assist, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, and advanced smart city brake support with pedestrian detection.

The base model Mazda CX-5 2.5 S comes standard with push-button start, a remote keyless entry system, and 12-volt power outlets. It also features a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a leather-wrapped gear selector, and a 10.25-inch infotainment system display.

The 2023 Mazda CX-5 uses a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine to make 187 horsepower. The small SUV achieves 24 miles per gallon in the city and 30 miles per gallon on the highway. The Mazda CX-5’s power output is similar to most small SUVs in its vehicle segment. Its fuel economy isn’t great compared to many of its rivals.
