When it comes to vehicle types, the SUV is way ahead of the game in terms of popularity, and for good reason. An SUV provides unparalleled flexibility and an elevated seating position, enhancing your confidence on the road and offering an engaging experience from one mile to the next. However, that same popularity means there are a lot of SUVs to choose from, and finding the right one for your needs can be challenging. The good news is that our team here at Parkway Family Mazda is up for the challenge and ready to help by offering a good selection of SUVs to consider, including the 2025 Mazda CX-50.

With this in mind, you can rest assured that we will take the time to answer any questions you have to ensure you have the information you need to choose the right CX-50 for your everyday life. If you’ve not considered an SUV from Mazda before, keep reading to see what the CX-50 has to offer.

A Newer Arrival to the Lineup

First, the Mazda CX-50 is a fairly new arrival to the lineup, debuting for the 2023 model year. Since that time, it has made waves with individual drivers and families alike, offering a number of amenities and a smooth ride. It also adds some zest to your drive, especially when opting for the more-than-capable turbocharged engine. Add that to the brand’s reputation for manufacturing vehicles with responsive handling, high-quality materials, and a long list of technology and safety features, and it’s easy to see why we think it’s a strong contender when looking for a new vehicle. Additionally, you can tow up to 3,500 lbs, which means you can enjoy the CX-50 for both work and play, making it even more versatile than you might have initially imagined. A deeper dive into some of the SUV’s features is offered below.

Power and Performance

You might be wondering why we would start with power and performance. After all, the CX-50 is a compact SUV—and while that class of SUVs has a lot going for it, power and performance aren’t typically at the top of the list. However, the 2025 CX-50 stands out with its standard Mazda Intelligent Drive Select (Mi-Drive) modes, standard i-ACTIV AWD, and powerful engine options, including a 2.5L turbocharged option that delivers up to 256 hp.

As mentioned, Mazda is known for delivering vehicles with responsive handling. The Mi-Drive technology contributes to this. Essentially, you’re able to instantly select the drive mode of your choice, ensuring a smooth and natural drive from start to finish. Those drive modes include Normal, Sport, and Off-Road. When selecting the turbocharged engine, you’ll also gain access to a Towing mode.

Regarding Mazda’s i-ACTIV system, you’ll enjoy the advanced, predictive technology it offers, improving confidence and offering stability and efficiency in a variety of road and weather conditions. Unlike standard AWD systems, which react only when wheel slip occurs, i-ACTIV AWD continuously monitors real-time data from 27 sensors, including wheel speed, steering angle, and outside temperature, to forecast and avoid traction loss before it occurs. The technology also enhances grip and control by evenly distributing torque between the front and back wheels, ensuring seamless performance throughout. Additionally, it works in tandem with Mazda’s SKYACTIV technology to optimize fuel efficiency, providing you with an intuitive and responsive driving experience without sacrificing performance or economy.

A Technology-Driven Vehicle

In our digitally driven world, there are very few spaces left that technology hasn’t touched. For the 2025 CX-50, that means advancements such as the seamless connection between compatible phones and Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, as well as push-button start, a standard 10.25-inch full-color display, Alexa Built-in, Bluetooth hands-free capabilities, and available wireless charging.

Technology is also found when exploring the safety side of things. For instance, you’ll enjoy the convenience of Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop and Go, which is useful when navigating traffic around Tomball, as it uses radar and sensors to maintain a set speed while also monitoring the distance to the car ahead. When it senses a change in traffic flow or a slower-moving vehicle, it automatically reduces your vehicle’s speed to ensure a safe following distance. At the same time, it can accelerate to get you back on pace when traffic gets going again. Ultimately, the system improves driving safety and reduces stress.

Other safety features you’ll find in the 2025 CX-50 include Blind Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, High Beam Control, Smart Brake Support, a Lane Departure Warning System with Lane-keep Assist, and an optional 360-degree View Monitor. 

Comfort and Convenience

Beyond performance, connectivity, and safety, it’s essential to choose a vehicle that is both comfortable and convenient, whether you typically stick to the Tomball area or drive beyond. The CX-50 checks these boxes as well, offering ample head and leg room regardless of your position in the SUV, as well as available features like heated and ventilated seats, power lumbar support for the driver’s seat, a power sliding-glass panoramic moonroof, and a rear power liftgate with programmable height adjustment. Our team can explore each of these features with you to help determine which trim level works best for your everyday needs.

Trim Options

Speaking of trim levels, the Mazda CX-50 offers several options, which is another reason to rely on our team. We can walk you through each one—as well as the available accessories—to ensure you get everything on your must-have list, along with a few things on your wishlist. The base 2025 CX-50 is the Select, followed by the Preferred, Premium, Premium Plus, Turbo Meridian Edition, Turbo Premium, and Turbo Premium Plus. For each trim, you’ll find a variety of accessories to level up your experience. Either way, it’s hard to go wrong when choosing the CX-50, especially given its solid history since it was introduced and the brand’s focus on delivering quality vehicles that last.
