The 2025 Mazda CX-5 continues to impress despite its age. It seamlessly blends elegant styling with a near-luxury interior and class-leading driving dynamics. Standard all-wheel drive, two available four-cylinder engines, and engaging handling make this compact crossover a driver’s delight that rivals can’t match.
The 2.5 S Select trim, positioned second in the comprehensive eight-trim lineup, builds thoughtfully upon the base 2.5 S model with enhanced comfort and convenience features. Leasing the 2025 CX-5 Select delivers a premium experience without the hefty price tag of upscale trims, striking the perfect balance of refinement, practicality, and value for everyday driving.
Engine and Transmission
Like other Mazda Crossovers, the CX-5 Select delivers an engaging driving experience with its naturally-aspirated 2.5-liter four-cylinder producing 187 horsepower and 186 lb-ft of torque. While not blistering quick (0-60 mph in 8.1 seconds), its responsive throttle makes city driving feel surprisingly spirited. The six-speed automatic and standard all-wheel drive work harmoniously with the precise steering to create a composed, confidence-inspiring ride. What truly sets the CX-5 apart is its sophisticated suspension, absorbing road imperfections with premium-level refinement while maintaining exceptional cornering dynamics.
Fuel Economy
The CX-5 offers two engine choices, each with its own fuel efficiency figures. However, the Select trim uses the standard 2.5-liter engine, which achieves 26 mpg in the city, 30 mpg on the highway, and 28 mpg combined.
Interior and Tech
The CX-5 S Select creates a near-luxury atmosphere with meticulous craftsmanship that challenges German premium brands. The leatherette-trimmed cabin features ergonomic perfection, from the floor-hinged pedals to the perfectly positioned steering wheel and uniform armrest heights.
Tech amenities abound, including a crisp 10.3-inch display controlled by an intuitive rotary knob, complete with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. The 6-speaker audio system with automatic level control delivers balanced sound, while dual-zone climate control with pollen filter and rear vents ensures comfort. Convenience shines through heated front seats, a power driver’s seat, dual USB charging ports, and Mazda’s Advanced Keyless Entry System.
Safety and Driver Assistance Features
The latest CX-5 flaunts a myriad of Mazda’s high-tech safety and driver assistance technologies, such as:
- Active Blind Spot Detection
- Frontal Collision Warning
- Lane Departure Warning System
- Lane-keep Assist
- Speed Limit Information
- Automatic High Beams
