2025 Mazda CX-70 vs. 2025 Mazda CX-90
Engine and Performance
The brand-new CX-70 and the popular CX-90 are two versatile midsize SUVs designed to power all your journeys, from morning commutes to outdoor adventures. They share the same mild hybrid powertrain, pairing a 48V M-Boost motor with a 3.3L inline-6 turbo engine in a system that produces 280 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque with the base equipment.
Performance upgrades are available, boosting the engine’s output to 340 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque in the 3.3 Turbo S lineup. If you have trailers to tow, each of the two models boasts a base towing capacity of 3,500 lbs and up to 5,000 lbs in the upper trims. Mazda’s rear-biased i-ACTIV AWD system is standard across all models, meaning you can enjoy exceptional traction and handling in all driving situations.

You can expect ample lounge spaces in both rows, with 41.7 inches of legroom at the front and 39.4 inches in the second row.
