For 2019, the Mazda CX-5 gets new appointments, new trims, and a 2.5-litre turbocharged engine under the hood of select trims. These improvements make the CX-5 a great choice in its segment. The 2019 Mazda CX-5 is available in the GX, GS, GT, and Signature trim.

Two Great Engine Options Under the Hood of the 2019 Mazda CX-5

Powering the GS, GX, and GT variants are the superbly efficient 2.5-litre SKYACTIV-G powerplants that offer 187 hp and 186 lb-ft of torque. This engine is paired to a seamless six-speed automatic transmission that can be hooked up to an FWD or the i-ACTIV AWD system for better control.

The new 2.5-litre turbocharged engine is available as an option on the GT model but is standard on the Signature variant, attracting buyers looking for a more upscale CX-5. This engine is also mated to a six-speed automatic transmission that in turn feeds the i-ACTIV AWD system.

Other interesting systems included with the 2019 Mazda CX-5 are the G-VECTORING CONTROL and G-VECTORING CONTROL PLUS systems that optimize handling and braking when this compact SUV comes in and out of corners, increasing the overall driving dynamics and confidence behind the wheel.
