The 2026 MAZDA CX-50: A Versatile, Enhanced Off-Roader

You could consider the 2026 Mazda CX-50 as the rugged sibling of the Mazda CX-5. Both boast exceptional performance, styling, and sophistication, but the Mazda CX-50 has a more aggressive body and stance that it complements with off-road-oriented features. Like the Mazda CX-5, the 2026 Mazda CX-50 also boasts a spacious, upscale cabin and offers a pair of sterling engine choices for Basney Mazda buyers - and you can experience both of them today.

Power and Performance

If you've spent any time around Mazda automobiles, you'll probably recognize the two available engines for this new Mazda SUV. The standard engine, which powers the "2.5 S" trims, is a SKYACTIV®-G 2.5-liter four-cylinder rated at 187 horsepower and 185 lb-ft of torque. Meanwhile, the "2.5 Turbo" trims add a Twin-scroll Turbocharger that increases output to 256 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque.

Both engines match with a six-speed automatic transmission and i-ACTIV AWD® (all-wheel drive). Plus, for even more capability, the 2026 Mazda CX-50 offers several drive modes, including Sport, Off-Road, and Towing.

Towing and Cargo

When properly equipped with a genuine Mazda Tow Hitch, the 2.5S trims can tow up to 2,000 lbs. For the turbocharged trims, towing capacity increases to 3,500 lbs when Towing Mode is activated.

In the cargo category, the 2026 Mazda CX-50 boasts 56.3 cubic ft of stowing space with the rear seatback down, and 31.4 cubic ft with the seatback up. Also, this SUV's cargo hold is deeper than it is wide, which helps with stowing items lengthwise. We recommend adding the available rear power liftgate, which lets you customize its height so you can more easily unload in places with a low ceiling.

Safety

Whichever trim you choose at our South Bend, IN Mazda dealership, you'll be protected by the exceptional i-Activsense® suite of advanced safety features. Smart Brake Support, Mazda Radar Cruise Control, and Blind Spot Monitoring are just a few examples of the suite's standard systems.
