2023 Mazda CX-5 2.5 S Preferred Package

The 2023 CX-5 is a compact SUV that aims for a more premium feel than the typical class leader, blending sharp styling with a driver-focused character. It squares off against the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, and Subaru Forester, offering a more engaging drive than most of them. The CX-5 steers with precision and holds its composure through corners, making it one of the most enjoyable compact SUVs to drive. Inside, the cabin uses upscale materials and a clean layout, with comfortable seats and a user-friendly infotainment system. Heated leather seats and the bigger moonroof set the 2.5 S Preferred Package apart from the S trim below it. Its 2.5L I4 makes 187 horsepower and pairs with a six-speed automatic and four-wheel drive, returning 26 mpg combined.
