2026 Mazda CX-5 First Drive: All The Details

The 2026 Mazda CX-5 is an exercise in not messing too much with a winning formula. This compact crossover accounts for about one-third of global Mazda sales, so it is vital that the company doesn’t mess it up. As a result, the all-new CX-5 feels familiar. It is new inside and out, and there are some big changes, including the removal of the 2.5 turbo engine and the addition of an available 15.6-inch Google-based infotainment screen, but the new car feels more like evolution, not revolution.
