Editor's notes
The Mazda CX-5 is all-new for 2026, marking its third generation. Some aspects are familiar, including the overall design and powertrain, but this new CX-5 is larger than its predecessor and features Mazda-first technology like an available 15.6-inch touchscreen and Google built-in. What remains unchanged is the CX-5’s fun-to-drive nature. Compared to rivals such as the Honda CR-V and also-new Toyota RAV4 in the cut-throat compact SUV segment, the CX-5 remains the one to pick if you favor athletic handling. As with all of Mazda’s SUVs, the 2026 benefits from standard all-wheel drive. A hybrid variant is in the works, but not until 2027.
We’ve logged hundreds of hours driving and evaluating this generation of compact SUVs, including the Mazda CX-5.
Pros
- Impressive tech
- Standard all-wheel drive
