2025 Mazda CX-50 S Preferred Package

The CX-50 is Mazda's rugged-styled compact crossover, slotting between the CX-5 and CX-30 with a wider stance and more adventurous look. It takes on the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, and Subaru Forester, but with sharper steering and a more premium cabin than any of them. The CX-50 feels planted and eager through corners, with quick, precise steering that makes it the most engaging drive in its class. The ride is firm and controlled, which pays off in handling but means you'll feel sharper bumps more than in softer rivals. Inside, the cabin uses high-quality materials and a clean design, with comfortable seats and a straightforward infotainment system. Stepping up from the base S Select Package adds heated front seats, a power-adjustable driver's seat, a wireless phone charger, and dual-zone automatic climate control. The 2.5L I4 produces 187 horsepower and 185 lb-ft of torque, routed through a six-speed automatic to standard all-wheel drive, earning 28 mpg combined. Mi-Drive offers Sport and Off-Road modes, letting you sharpen throttle response or improve traction on loose surfaces.
