2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid Delivers 6.2 L/100km Efficiency With AWD
November 19 2024,
Mazda's newest addition to the CX-50 lineup brings hybrid efficiency to the adventure-ready crossover segment. The 2025 CX-50 Hybrid combines Mazda's signature driving dynamics with advanced electrification to deliver an SUV that excels in both city commutes and weekend escapes.
The Evolution of Efficient Power
The CX-50 Hybrid introduces a sophisticated powertrain that pairs a 2.5L naturally-aspirated engine with three electric motors to produce a combined 219 horsepower. This system delivers responsive acceleration while achieving an estimated 6.2 L/100km combined fuel economy rating. The advanced hybrid technology means fewer stops at the pump and more time enjoying the journey.
Beyond raw numbers, the CX-50 Hybrid maintains Mazda's vow to drive engagement. Engineers have carefully calibrated the accelerator response and power delivery to provide the connected feeling drivers expect from a Mazda, while the hybrid system works seamlessly in the background to optimize efficiency.
Smart Technology for Modern Living
At the heart of the CX-50 Hybrid is the proven Toyota Hybrid System, featuring an electronic continuously variable transmission and standard electric AWD. The e-AWD system automatically adjusts torque distribution between front and rear wheels, providing confident handling in varying conditions from snow-covered roads to light trails.
The modern driving experience extends to the cabin, where Amazon Alexa integration allows voice control of navigation, climate settings, and vehicle functions. The available 10.25-inch center display supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while Mazda Connected Services provide remote vehicle monitoring and control through the MyMazda app.
Daily Versatility Meets Weekend Freedom
The CX-50 Hybrid excels in practical utility. Its 826-litre cargo space behind the rear seats expands to 1,594 litres with the 60/40 split seats folded. A power liftgate comes standard, making cargo loading effortless. The hybrid powertrain doesn't compromise capability, maintaining a 1,500-pound towing capacity for weekend toys and small trailers.
Urban dwellers will appreciate the compact exterior dimensions and parking sensors, while the increased ground clearance and Mi-Drive modes with Trail setting support weekend adventures. The panoramic moonroof opens the cabin to the outdoors, perfect for both city skyline views and starlit camping nights.
Premium Features for Every Journey
Available in GS-L, Kuro, and GT trim levels, the CX-50 Hybrid offers premium appointments including leather seating, heated and ventilated front seats, and a Bose premium audio system. The GT trim adds luxuries like a 360-degree camera system and advanced driver assistance features including Traffic Sign Recognition and Front Cross Traffic Alert.
Safety comes standard with Mazda's i-Activsense suite, featuring Smart Brake Support, Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Speed Limit Assist, and Lane Keep Assist. New for 2025, Private eCall and Stolen Vehicle Assistance provide additional peace of mind through connected services.
The 2025 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid starts at $42,950 for the GS-L trim, representing strong value in the premium compact SUV segment. Thanks to its mix of efficiency, capability, and refinement, the CX-50 Hybrid is positioned to meet modern families seeking daily practicality and weekend adventure potential.
