2017 Mazda CX-5

The 2017 Mazda CX-5 is available in three different trims Sport, Touring and Grand Touring. Each trim has its particular merits and pricing. The Grand Touring version has the most advanced features. The Sport version has slightly fewer niceties than the Touring. Each of the trims is equipped with the SKYACTIV®-G engine with 2.5 liters, 187 horses and 185 pound feet of torque and a 6-speed SKYACTIV®-Drive automatic transmission. Each trim level also provides front-wheel drive.

Mazda’s widely lauded predictive i-ACTIV AWD® is available on all trims. Let’s take a look at the nuances of each Mazda CX-5 trim to help auto-seekers make an informed decision.
