With its classic styling and sport-focused performance, the 2019 Mazda CX-5 is one of the most compelling buys in the crowded crossover segment. It’s available in five different trims, with all trims able to seat five passengers. In addition, all models come with a four-cylinder engine and a six-speed auto transmission. Read on for more details on the new CX-5, which is available at our Mazda dealership in Lockport.
Exterior Styling
The Mazda CX-5’s styling is luxurious but not overly gaudy. It starts out with a trapezoidal grille and slitted headlights, which flow into two substantial character lines that flank the vehicle. A wide rear end culminates in narrowed taillights and a creased liftgate. The base model gets 17-inch wheels and LED lights. Options include 19-inch wheels, auto windshield wipers, and a sunroof, among others.
Interior
With a look inside the CX-5’s cabin, it’s easy to forget that you’re not in a bonafide luxury SUV. All trims are upscale, and you’ll find great touches such as chrome-surrounded climate vents. The gauges, knobs, and buttons are concentrated in the driver info center, giving the interior a cockpit-esque feel. You’ll get manual-adjustment front seats and a leather-covered steering wheel. Optional choices include leather upholstery, heated seats, and much more. Get additional info at our Mazda dealership in Lockport.
Performance
The Grand Touring, Touring, and Sport versions get a 2.5L four-cylinder engine with 187hp and 186 lb. ft. of torque. The top-level trims come with a turbocharged unit that offers 227hp and 310 lb. ft. of torque; both engines are matched to a six-speed automatic. Front-wheel drive is standard on lower trims, and all-wheel drive is standard on upper-level models.
When you’re looking for a reliable small SUV with good acceleration and a long list of features, it’s tough to beat the Mazda CX-5.
