Skyactiv-G 2.5L with Cylinder Deactivation

For starters, the 2023 Mazda CX-5 comes standard with Mazda’s Skyactiv-G 2.5L engine featuring cylinder deactivation technology.

i-Activ All Wheel Drive (AWD)

The i-Activ AWD system is also now included as a standard feature on all Canadian market 2023 Mazda CX-5 models. This innovative AWD system uses 27 sensors to monitor road conditions in real-time and can adjust power delivery between the front and rear axles as needed for enhanced traction and performance on wet, icy, or snowy roads.


Rhodium White Metallic Paint Option

The new Rhodium White Metallic paint option is also offered for the first time ever in the Canadian market with the 2023 Mazda CX-5 models. Not only does this colour look great, but it was born from Mazda’s exclusive Takuminuri painting technology – which expertly blends high-quality paints with precision application techniques for a luxury finish that lasts over time.


Enhanced Safety Features

The CX-5 has earned a great reputation with numerous top industry and safety awards, including the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) Top Safety Pick+. It was the first vehicle to earn a Good rating in IIHS's tougher side impact test and currently remains the only small SUV to have done so.


All of the engineering and safety features that contributed to these awards are now standard on the 2023 model year, such as Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop and Go, Smart Brake Support Front and Rear, Pedestrian Detection with forward sensing, Advanced Blind Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, and Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist. With these cutting-edge safety features, CX-5 drivers can feel confident no matter where they're driving.


With its standard Skyactiv-G 2.5L engine featuring cylinder deactivation technology, i-Activ AWD system, and unique Rhodium White Metallic paint option – produced using Takuminuri painting technology – the 2023 CX-5 has something exciting for everyone!
