RICHMOND
HILL, ON, July 9, 2024 /CNW/ - Mazda Canada Inc.
(MCI) today announces pricing for the 2025 Mazda CX-50. This
dependable compact SUV is purpose built for the active lifestyles
of our customers.
2025 is an exciting year for CX-50 with the introduction of
CX-50 Hybrid, which broadens the compact SUV's appeal to a wider
audience in the compact SUV (C-SUV) segment by combining Mazda's
design and driving dynamics with greater fuel efficiency and the
ability to go further and engage with outdoor activities.
Electrification comes in different forms, and Mazda offers a
variety of choices to best suit customer needs. Returning an
estimated 6.2 litres per 100 kilometres (L/100km) combined, CX-50
Hybrid offers significantly improved driving range compared to the
standard CX-50 2.5L models based on the combined fuel economy
rating from NRCan.
The 2025 CX-50 is available in eight packages across three
capable, confidence-inspiring powertrain choices with standard
all-wheel drive (AWD), allowing customers to find the right CX-50
model for them, and for the adventures that lie ahead.
CX-50 GS-L
CX-50 GS-L models are powered by a
Skyactiv-G 2.5L naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine with
cylinder deactivation and i-stop, producing 187 horsepower and 185
lb-ft of torque on regular 87-octane fuel. This engine is paired to
a Skyactiv-Drive six-speed automatic transmission.
The CX-50 GS-L comes standard with i-Activ All-Wheel Drive and
Mazda Intelligent Drive Select, or Mi-Drive, with Sport and
Off-Road modes. Drive modes can be selected with the Mi-Drive
control and will help the SUV perform naturally and confidently in
a wide variety of driving conditions, or while towing up to 907 kg
(2,000 lb) when equipped with Mazda genuine towing accessories.
New for 2025, all CX-50 models now benefit from the inclusion of
Alexa Built-in, allowing the driver to make certain hands-free,
voice commands for prompts like changing the temperature, or radio
station, to controlling their smart home devices while in the
vehicle. The CX-50 GS-L serves as an impressive entry point to the
CX-50 line-up, offering a wide array of standard safety,
convenience, and technology amenities. This includes a 10.25-inch
full-colour center display with HD Radio™ and four
USB-C ports, 8-speaker audio system, wireless Apple
CarPlay™ and Android
Auto™ integration with touchscreen functionality,
Mazda Connect™ infotainment system, Mazda Advanced
Keyless Entry with push-button start, a 7-inch TFT LCD instrument
panel display, dual-zone automatic climate control with rear
passenger vents, a leather-wrapped shifter and steering wheel,
leatherette seating, heated steering wheel, LED interior lighting,
among many other standard features.
Moving to the exterior of the CX-50, standard features include
unique 17-inch Black Metallic alloy wheels, tinted privacy glass,
LED headlights, rear roof spoiler, roof rails, black power
side-view mirrors with LED turn signal indicators, and dual exhaust
outlets, High Beam Control, and rain-sensing wipers.
As with any Mazda vehicle, safety is a priority for the CX-50,
whether on the road or venturing out into nature. For 2025, Mazda
has enhanced the standard driver assistance and vehicle safety
technology in CX-50 with the inclusion of vehicle exit warning and
an improved version of Smart Brake Support that includes provisions
for nighttime pedestrian detection and head-on collision
mitigation. Additional standard active and passive safety features
carryover to all CX-50 packages and include Mazda Radar Cruise
Control (MRCC) with Stop and Go, Smart Brake Support with
pedestrian detection, Blind Spot Monitoring, Driver Attention
Alert, Lane Departure Warning System, Lane Keep Assist, and Rear
Cross Traffic Alert.
CX-50 also receives two new features for Mazda to help in
emergency situations, called Private eCall and Stolen Vehicle
Assistance. Private eCall is a connected vehicle feature that
initiates a call to connect vehicle occupants to an emergency call
centre when emergency services are required. Calls can also be
initiated with a button inside the vehicle. Stolen Vehicle
Assistance is also available in the MyMazda app and can help
authorities track and retrieve the vehicle in the event of vehicle
theft.
The CX-50 GS-L provides customers an additional level of
convenience features by offering heated side-view mirrors and
windshield wipers, power rear liftgate with programmable height
adjustment, ten-way power adjustable driver's seat with power
lumbar support, heated front seats, and a power-sliding panoramic
moonroof with one-touch open and close feature. For 2025, the CX-50
GS-L also sees the inclusion of wireless phone charging, bringing
the technology into CX-50 at a more accessible price point.
CX-50 GT
Building upon the GS-L trim, the CX-50 GT distinguishes itself
visually by offering 20-inch aluminum-alloy wheels with machine-cut
black metallic accent and automatic power folding side-view
mirrors. Inside the CX-50 cabin, the GT provides the addition of
ventilated front seats, a six-way power adjustable front passenger
seat, black leather seating with premium camel stitching trim
inserts, two-position driver seat memory, and a frameless
auto-dimming rear-view mirror with HomeLink®. Driver and
passengers will enjoy a Bose® 12-speaker premium audio
system with Centerpoint® 2 Surround Technology and
AudioPilot® 2 Noise Compensation Technology, along with
SiriusXM satellite radio with three-month trial subscription.
Additional safety and security features include a head-up Active
Driving Display projected on the windshield with Traffic Sign
Recognition, Emergency Lane Keeping with Blind Spot Assist, a 360°
view monitor with a new See-Through View function, front and rear
parking sensors and Emergency Lane Keeping – Blind Spot Assist
technology. Further enhancements include a new Front Cross Traffic
Alert as well as rear Smart Brake Support, and enhancements to
Smart Brake Support, which now includes Turn-Across Traffic and
Front Crossing detection, as well as Cruising & Traffic Support
(CTS) technology. CTS is Mazda's most advanced form of active
driving assistance, providing highway speed lane centering and
adaptive cruise control for confident, hands-on driving.
CX-50 HYBRID MODELS
CX-50 Hybrid models are distinguished from other CX-50 models
with subtle styling cues, inside and out, including unique wheel
designs, a different lower front bumper design, and the
availability of a new Garnet Red
leather interior option.
The CX-50 Hybrid platform has been designed around the Toyota
Hybrid System (THS), a powertrain package that is comprised of a
2.5L naturally-aspirated four-cylinder engine, hybrid EV battery,
three electric motors, electronically-controlled Continuously
Variable Transmission (eCVT), and standard electric AWD (eAWD).
This powertrain combination produces 219 horsepower and 163 lb-ft
of torque on regular 87-octane fuel. CX-50 Hybrid has an
estimated combined fuel economy rating of 6.2 litres per 100
kilometres, which is over 40% improved compared to the CX-50
2.5L.
Mazda engineers have calibrated even the finest details of the
hybrid powertrain, such as the accelerator pedal response to offer
the connected, responsive driving dynamics that CX-50 is known for.
Additionally, the availability of tuned drive modes, such as Power
or Trail, allow drivers to tailor their experience behind the wheel
to match the situation at hand. Enough for hauling a pair of most
kinds of jet skis or other smaller weekend toys, towing capacity is
rated at 680 kg (1,500 lbs) on all Hybrid trims when equipped with
Mazda genuine towing accessories.
With incredible chassis rigidity, deft steering and handling,
and a keen emphasis on noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH)
attenuation, the CX-50 Hybrid offers a refined, smooth drive with
great dynamics in the compact SUV hybrid segment.
Like other CX-50 models, CX-50 Hybrid places great emphasis on
supporting the active lifestyles of the driver. To that end, the
cargo area has been optimized around the placement of the hybrid
battery in the rear section of the floor, maximizing available
storage volume and the ability to fit large objects, like bicycles,
inside. Combined with the generous list of available Mazda genuine
accessories, CX-50 Hybrid can be the catalyst to going further and
doing more.
Likewise, interior comfort is a strong focus on CX-50 Hybrid,
with high quality materials, invigorating design, supportive
seating front and rear, and a robust suite of features that
customers will appreciate on both the everyday drive and during
road trips and other excursions.
CX-50 Hybrid GS-L
Kicking things off is the CX-50 Hybrid GS-L model, which is
similarly equipped to the 2.5L GS-L, and features a robust list of
equipment, including unique 17-inch Hybrid wheels finished in
black, 10.25-inch infotainment display with wireless
CarPlay® and Android Auto® connectivity, an
8-speaker audio system, four USB-C ports, wireless phone charging,
Alexa Built-in integration, power rear liftgate, and a one-touch
power sliding panoramic moonroof, amongst many other niceties.
CX-50 Hybrid Kuro
Building off the CX-50 Hybrid GS-L, the Hybrid Kuro model
features unique design upgrades, like black roof rails and black
exhaust pipes, as well as other black exterior accents.
Additional design and convenience upgrades occur inside, where
CX-50 Hybrid Kuro Edition offers leather seating available in black
or a Garnet Red colour that is
unique to Hybrid models. From there, features found on other CX-50
GT models can be found inside CX-50 Hybrid, including a 6-way power
passenger seat and 2-position memory setting for the 10-way power
driver seat.
CX-50 Hybrid GT
The range topping Hybrid model, the CX-50 Hybrid GT,
incorporates unique 19-inch Hybrid wheels in a split black and
machine polished finish that feature an aerodynamic
turbine-inspired design, bright roof rails and exhaust pipes,
automatic power-folding side mirrors, an auto-dimming rear view
mirror with HomeLink®, black metal painted interior trim
inserts with available camel stitching on the black interior,
ventilated front seats and a full-color Active Driving Display that
is projected onto the windshield.
CX-50 GT Turbo
Standard on all GT Turbo models is Mazda's Skyactiv-G 2.5L
turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 256 hp and 320
lb-ft of torque on premium 93 octane fuel, 227 hp and 310 lb-ft of
torque on regular 87 octane fuel. This engine is mated to a
responsive Skyactiv-Drive six-speed automatic transmission with
manual shift mode through the steering wheel-mounted paddle
shifters for a more engaging drive.
CX-50 GT Turbo also come standard with the i-Activ AWD system
with Mi-Drive with Sport and Off-road modes, and adds a Towing mode
exclusive to the Turbo. Towing capacity is rated at 1,588 kg (3,500
lbs) for GT Turbo models when equipped with Mazda genuine towing
accessories.
CX-50 GT Turbo models can be denoted by their unique Turbo
badging, larger exhaust pipes, and silver accents on the front and
rear lower bumper.
CX-50 Meridian Edition
Paired with the 2.5L Turbo, the CX-50 Meridian Edition offers a
higher level of all-terrain performance and styling, emphasizing
CX-50's adventurous spirit by offering exclusive 18-inch alloy
wheels with all-terrain tires, side rocker garnish, distinctive
hood graphics, and a host of available outdoor-specific accessories
to allow customers to take CX-50 confidently and conveniently into
the wild.
The Meridian Edition is not without creature comforts. Inside,
like the GT trim, drivers will enjoy powered side mirrors with
memory adjust, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear
seats, a heated steering wheel, and Mazda Online Navigation which
offers expanded route guidance with select off-road trail mapping,
and the ability to do over-the-air (OTA) updates1.
