The 2026 Mazda CX-5 engine specs are officially revealed 🚗💨 In this performance test, we break down the 2.5L SkyActiv-G engine producing 187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission and standard i-Activ AWD across the lineup.
Mazda recalibrated the naturally aspirated 2.5-liter engine for smoother throttle response and quieter cruising — giving the new CX-5 a more refined and balanced driving experience. Sport Mode sharpens response off the line, while Mazda’s Intelligent Drive Select system helps tailor performance to your conditions.
For 2026, the turbo engine has been discontinued, but Mazda has confirmed a new hybrid powertrain arriving in 2027, featuring SkyActiv-Z technology and Mazda Hybrid System integration ⚡
Additional consumer highlights:
✔ Standard AWD on every trim
✔ Improved cabin noise insulation
✔ 15.6-inch touchscreen with Google Built-In
✔ Larger body dimensions for more interior space
✔ Competitive compact SUV pricing in the U.S. & Canada
So while power stays familiar, refinement and future electrification are clearly the focus.
Would you miss the turbo — or wait for the hybrid? 👇
