2025 MAZDA CX-50 vs. The Competition

2025 Mazda CX-50 White

Having debuted in 2023, the Mazda CX-50 is one of the automaker’s newest models. But in two short years, it’s rocketed to the top of the compact SUV segment. The 2025 Mazda CX-50 has several rivals, but its performance, styling, and trim lineup place a rung higher than the rest. See it today at Peruzzi Mazda.

Performance

The Mazda brand’s world-class performance comes alive in the 2025 Mazda CX-50. While competitors such as the Hyundai Tucson and Honda CR-V are comfortable and pleasing to drive, this new Mazda vehicle combines these qualities with exhilarating steering and handling, plus performance enhancements such as i-ACTIV AWD® and Mazda Intelligent Drive Select.

The 2025 Mazda CX-50 also offers two powerful engines, including a turbocharged four-cylinder that achieves 256 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque. By contrast, the Toyota RAV4 offers just one engine choice, whose output of 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque falls well short of the Mazda CX-50. Additionally, the 2025 Mazda CX-50 offers an available hybrid powertrain – something you won’t find on a competitor such as the Subaru Forester.

Design

Mazda USA has mastered the art of designing automobiles that combine utility and attractiveness. From the cabin and the seats to the liftgate and the headlights, everything in the 2025 Mazda CX-50 is seamlessly interwoven into an appealing design language that’s unique to the brand. This takes decades to master, and it’s why newer models such as the Hyundai Tucson and Subaru Forester fall short of offering similar aesthetic appeal.

Trim Lineup

At our Mazda dealership serving Philadelphia, PA, you’ll have 10 2025 Mazda CX-50 trims to consider, giving you an extraordinary level of choice. Contrarily, the Honda CR-V lineup tops out at six trims, while the Toyota RAV4 roster is limited to four. With this many trims comes a wealth of diversity. For example, off-road fans will want to look at the Turbo Meridian Edition trim, while lovers of luxury can opt for Premium Plus trim. You might find the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V trim lineups to be homogenous by comparison.
