The Mazda CX-5 has long been celebrated for its captivating design and engaging driving experience, establishing itself as a top-selling model for the brand in the United States. Building upon this success, the 2020 Mazda Cx-5 arrives with a host of refinements across all trim levels, promising an even more premium and peaceful ride. From performance enhancements to an expanded suite of standard safety features, the 2020 Mazda CX-5 is set to impress.
Mazda’s commitment to providing a premium ownership experience is evident right from the start with a redesigned key fob. Stepping inside the 2020 Mazda CX-5 Sport trim, it’s clear this is far from a basic entry-level SUV. Mazda has made its full suite of i-Activsense safety features standard across the range. This comprehensive safety package includes Mazda Radar Cruise Control with stop and go, Advanced Smart City Brake Support with pedestrian detection (day and night), Smart Brake Support with Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning with Lane-Keep Assist, and High Beam Control. Further enhancing convenience and safety, automatic on/off headlights and rain-sensing windshield wipers are also now standard.
Subtle yet sophisticated updates are found throughout the vehicle, including a refreshed font for badging and displays. The seven-inch touchscreen display featuring Mazda ConnectTM now includes a Cylinder Deactivation System display, providing real-time feedback on fuel efficiency when the Skyactiv-G 2.5 engine is utilizing cylinder deactivation. This naturally aspirated engine delivers 187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque and is paired with a responsive six-speed automatic transmission. The 2020 Mazda CX-5 comes standard with front-wheel drive, with i-Activ all-wheel drive available. Other standard features include G-Vectoring Control Plus, Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, electronic parking brake, leather-wrapped steering wheel, rearview camera, LED headlights, and 17-inch alloy wheels.
Moving up to the CX-5 Touring trim adds even more desirable features. Smartphone integration becomes seamless with standard Apple CarPlayTM and Android AutoTM. Audio enjoyment is enhanced with a six-speaker system, and Mazda Advanced Keyless Entry adds convenience. Heated front seats and leatherette seating surfaces with suede inserts elevate comfort, while rear passengers benefit from a center armrest with USB charging ports and dual-zone automatic climate control.
For those seeking more luxury, the Touring Preferred Package offers a Bose® premium 10-speaker audio system, a power moonroof, a rear power liftgate, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror with Homelink®.
The CX-5 Grand Touring trim level makes a bolder statement with 19-inch Bright Silver Finish alloy wheels, LED lighting, and a power moonroof. Paddle shifters are added for a more engaging driving experience, and both driver and front passenger enjoy power-adjustable seats. Leather-trimmed seats create a premium ambiance for all occupants, and SiriusXM® radio is included for entertainment.
Opting for the Grand Touring Premium Package brings further enhancements such as a windshield-projected Active Driving Display, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats and steering wheel, and automatic folding door mirrors, ensuring maximum comfort and convenience in various climates.
The CX-5 Grand Touring Reserve truly stands out with its turbocharged Skyactiv-G 2.5T engine and i-Activ all-wheel drive system. This potent engine delivers up to 250 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque on premium fuel, offering exhilarating performance. Even on regular fuel, it produces a robust 227 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. For 2020, the turbo engine receives an Engine Harmonics Enhancer for a more refined sound, and emissions are improved to ULEV70 standards. A brand-new feature for the 2020 Mazda CX-5 is off-road traction assist. This system enhances capability on uneven terrain by optimizing torque and braking to maintain traction when diagonal wheels lose contact with the ground.

The Grand Touring Reserve also boasts an upgraded eight-inch touchscreen display and includes features from the Premium Package such as the Active Driving Display, ventilated front seats, and heated rear seats.
At the pinnacle of the range, the CX-5 Signature represents the ultimate expression of Mazda’s craftsmanship. Building upon the Grand Touring Reserve, the Signature trim adds Traffic Sign Recognition to the Active Driving Display when equipped with navigation. The interior is lavishly appointed with Caturra Brown Nappa leather seats, genuine layered wood trim, and ambient LED lighting. A 360° View Monitor with parking sensors, 19-inch Dark Silver finish wheels, and Signature badging complete the sophisticated package.
