Suiting the needs and styles of a broad range of customers, the new Mazda CX-5 is available with two powertrain configurations. The Select, Preferred, Carbon Edition, Premium, and Premium Plus trim levels come standard with a 2.5-liter engine that generates 187 horsepower and 185 pound-feet of torque. The Carbon Turbo, Turbo Premium, and Turbo Signature models, on the other hand, feature a 2.5-liter turbocharged unit that pumps 256 horsepower and 320 pounds of torque.

While the new CX-5 is an excellent vehicle to drive around the city, its standard i-ACTIV AWD system makes it perfect to go on off-road adventures.
