What’s hiding under the 2026 Mazda CX-5 hood? 🚗👀 The all-new CX-5 is powered by a 2.5L SkyActiv-G four-cylinder engine producing 187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque, paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission and now featuring standard i-Activ AWD on every trim.
Mazda recalibrated this engine for smoother throttle response and quieter cruising — delivering a more refined driving experience while maintaining its signature balance of comfort and engagement.
⛽ Fuel Economy:
• ~26 MPG combined (U.S.)
• ~9.0L/100km combined (Canada)
• Real-world test: ~8.7L/100km (27 MPG)
⚡ Turbo is gone for 2026, but Mazda has confirmed a new hybrid powertrain arriving in 2027, bringing SkyActiv-Z technology and improved efficiency.
Beyond what’s under the hood, the 2026 CX-5 is also:
✔ 4.5 inches longer for more rear seat space
✔ Equipped with a 15.6-inch touchscreen with Google Built-In
✔ Offering improved cargo space (964L / 33.7 cu.ft. seats up)
✔ Updated with enhanced i-Activsense driver-assist features
So while power stays familiar, refinement and future electrification are the real story.
Would you prefer the current gas model — or wait for the hybrid? 🤔👇
