A New Era for an American Favorite
The original Mazda CX-5 helped establish Mazda’s reputation for building compact SUVs that feel premium, drive with precision, and deliver genuine reliability. Since its debut, the CX-5 has been one of Mazda’s best-selling and most beloved models globally — and this 4th of July, the all-new sixth-generation 2026 CX-5 arrives as a worthy successor to that legacy.
This isn’t a refresh. This isn’t a facelift. The 2026 CX-5 is a ground-up redesign — longer wheelbase, completely new interior, a massive new touchscreen, the first-ever Google built-in technology in a CX-5, and an all-new suite of standard safety features that set a new benchmark for the brand.
Like the American spirit this holiday celebrates, the new CX-5 is a bold reimagining — built on a strong foundation, ready for whatever the road ahead holds.

- Rear Cross Traffic Braking
- Forward Turn-Across Traffic Braking
- Emergency Lane Keeping
- Blind Spot Assist

2026 Mazda CX-5 Trim Levels & Pricing
The all-new CX-5 is available in five trim levels, all with AWD and a 6-speed automatic transmission:
| Trim | Starting MSRP | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 2.5 S | ~$29,990 | Best value entry point |
| 2.5 S Select | ~$31,990 | Adds leatherette, wireless CarPlay/AA |

At just under $30,000 to start — with AWD standard — the 2026 CX-5 is one of the most competitive entries in the compact SUV class.
Engine & Performance: The Mazda Driving Feel You Love
The 2026 CX-5 carries forward the proven 2.5-liter SKYACTIV-G four-cylinder engine, producing 187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission and standard i-ACTIV AWD® on every trim.
Fuel Economy: approximately 24 MPG city / 30 MPG highway / 26 MPG combined (based on prior-generation estimates with same powertrain; 2026 EPA ratings pending)
Towing capacity: up to 2,000 lbs when properly equipped
Drive modes: Normal, Sport, and Off-Road via Mazda’s Mi-Drive system — toggle between them to optimize the CX-5’s character for whatever El Paso road you’re on
What separates the CX-5 from competitors isn’t just the specs — it’s how it feels to drive. Mazda has engineered a level of steering precision, body control, and road feedback into the CX-5 that most compact SUVs simply don’t offer. On the highway, on mountain curves, or in the city, the CX-5 responds like a driver’s car — not just a transportation appliance.
Note: A Mazda Hybrid powertrain is confirmed for the CX-5 and is expected to launch in 2027. If you want a CX-5 with hybrid efficiency today, ask your Viva Mazda team about the CX-50 Hybrid.
Interior: Mazda’s Most Spacious CX-5 Ever
The 2026 redesign addressed one of the few criticisms of the previous CX-5 — rear seat room. The results are significant:
- Rear passengers now have comfortable adult-sized legroom thanks to the longer wheelbase
- Expanded cargo space for real-world family use
- Dual-zone automatic climate control standard
- Leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob standard from base
- Available leather upholstery (Premium and above)
- Available ventilated front seats (Premium and above)
- Available heated rear seats (Premium and above)
- Available heated steering wheel (Premium and above)
- Sunshade and ambient lighting available on upper trims
The cabin maintains Mazda’s signature clean, driver-focused aesthetic — no cluttered dash, no overwhelming button arrays. Just a well-designed space that puts you first.
Technology Deep Dive: 15.6 Inches of Innovation
The biggest single upgrade in the 2026 CX-5 is its technology leap. The all-new infotainment system is a complete overhaul:
The standard 12.9-inch touchscreen (Select and above) handles:
- Navigation via Google Maps (Google built-in)
- Voice commands via Google Assistant
- Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Climate control (via persistent bottom row of touch controls)
- Audio, media, and vehicle settings
The available 15.6-inch touchscreen (Premium Plus only) is the largest display ever offered in a Mazda — genuinely comparable to luxury brands at twice the price.
Google built-in® means you’re not mirroring your phone — Google services run natively on the car’s own system, with updates that improve over time. Just say “Hey Google” to get directions, make calls, adjust the cabin temperature, or play music — all without touching the screen.
Also available: Mazda Driver Personalization — a system that uses an interior camera to automatically adjust your seat, mirrors, head-up display height, and instrument cluster to your preferred position every time you get in.
Safety: A New Standard for the CX-5
The 2026 CX-5’s safety package is the most comprehensive Mazda has ever offered in a CX-5:
Standard across every trim — including the base 2.5 S:
- Smart Brake Support (Front collision avoidance)
- Rear Automatic Emergency Braking (new — standard on all trims)
- Rear Cross Traffic Braking (new — standard on all trims)
- Forward Turn-Across Traffic Braking (new — standard on all trims)

Does the 2026 Mazda CX-5 have a hybrid option? Not yet — Mazda has confirmed a hybrid powertrain for the CX-5, expected in 2027. If you want hybrid efficiency in a Mazda SUV today, the CX-50 Hybrid delivers 38 MPG with e-AWD standard, and Viva Mazda has it in stock now.
