Up front is a muscular fascia with a wide black front grille flanked by LED headlights. The proportions are perfectly executed with a wide stance, minimal overhangs, a blend of materials, and attention to detail that makes the CX-50 a unique offering. Mazda's expressive design language gets chiseled with a bolder and more rugged vibe. The exterior is both familiar, yet completely new. I spent a week in the CX-50 Turbo Premium Plus and here's what stood out. It's less traditional than the CX-5 and in my opinion competes more directly with vehicles like the Buick Envision, Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Edge, Nissan Murano, Subaru Crosstrek, Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport, and Volvo XC60. Competition is mixed as the CX-50 blends elements of the compact crossover with luxury and ruggedness, almost creating a new sub-class of crossovers. Pricing for the CX-50 starts at $26,800 for a base 2.5 S model and ranges to a starting price of $41,550 for a 2.5 Turbo Premium Plus. The CX-50 comes standard with i-Activ All-wheel Drive technology and Mazda's new Intelligent Drive Select.
Also available is 2.5L turbocharged option that produces up to 256 horsepower and is available in three trims (base, Premium, or Premium Plus). 2.5S models are equipped with a Skyactiv 2.5L naturally aspirated 4-cylinder that produces 187 horsepower and is available in six trims (base, Select, Preferred, Preferred Plus, Premium, and Premium Plus). It is available with two powertrains in a variety of configurations. The CX-50 is both wider and longer overall but has a shorter height and a taller ground clearance. The CX-50 is similar in size to the existing CX-5, but the proportions are different. It's the first model to be built at the new Mazda Toyota Manufacturing plant in Huntsville, AL. Mazda is expanding its lineup with the all-new five-passenger CX-50.
