What You Want | 2025 Mazda CX-50 Preferred in Ingot Blue

[@robertwelch4752]

I love your videos. I just picked up my CX-50 from Suburban Mazda Farmington Hills Michigan

[@RamonaSavana]

I pick up mine tomorrow morning! Super excited!

[@brasstime]

How is it ? now that you've had it a few weeks?

[@tynetteedwards349]

Reading some of the reviews I don’t understand people complaining about a four cylinder engine. If you want six or eight cylinders buy a car with that motor don’t buy a four cylinder and complain. I just purchased mine and coming from a 2018 Toyota Camry it’s a huge improvement on everything! Even my twenty something kids liked it’s interior retro feel and it has more power than my four cylinder Camry. So far it’s a great car! My husband even said I did a great job picking it out and he drives a Tundra with eight cylinders but definitely doesn’t compare them

[@MrMylil]

Love my 24 CX50 definitely a lot more room compared to the CX5. Both are gorgeous

Hey Jonathan! When do you think Mazda will update the gauge cluster to fully digital like the CX-90/CX-70?

[@marvinmejia8006]

Cant wait to see the hybrid, I think I might have to go see Jonathan rather than dealing with my local reps.

[@gregorskiff]

They got it a little better but they still have the piano black here and there. If they must have piano black they should make replacements pieces reasonably priced, easy to get and easy to replace. Dealers should have them out with the air fresheners 😆

[@jsz2619]

Jonathan, Mazda added a new interior color to the S Preferred and the S Premium trims. Ash Ochre.

[@tspidey007]

It’s a good looking blue, but Mazda needs a bright blue that pops such as the Reservoir Blue on the 2025 Camry.

[@overundersidewaysdown]

A nice green like Kia's JUNGLE GREEN, would be nice, too.

Hello, What is the name/ color of the indoor trim for the 2025 CX50 Blue ingot metallic/ preferred trim for this video ?

[@j8nkies20]

My 2024 cx50 was built in June. Were the newer dampers used before or after that month?

Excellent video, I just wish Mazda would LEAD the auto industry away from the dull, boring grey toned colors. Give me a blue that is as vibrant as the Soul Red, not that dead Ingot Blue or not one, but TWO different grays.

[@joeanunez]

The driving dynamics leave a lot to be desired compared to the CX-5.

[@t.k.morris]

I am shopping the two models for my wife. Can you please explain why you feel that way?

[@joeanunez]

@@t.k.morris the CX-5 has fun and engaging dynamics with Mazda’s zoom zoom feel. It drives unlike anything else in its class. The CX-50 feels boring. None of the fun zip you get from the CX-5. The 50 is made is the USA and the 5 is made in Japan, for what that’s worth.

I think their cylinder deactivation differs from other brands approach and way more durable. i personally haven’t heard of 2.5 Mazda skyactiv engines having issues due to cylinder deactivation.

[@dareeltoro6681]

I don’t like it. However, Mazda wouldn’t take such a huge risk adding this to all its vehicles on the one and only engine they use in the Mazda 3 CX5 and CX50 for years if they wouldn’t really be confident.

[@JM-vy5tl]

Thanks for the video! Do Mazda share vehicle collected data with data brokers such as lexis nexis?

[@honestabe1940]

That blue looks completely different in bright sunshine. Way lighter blue.

[@johnferri8456]

Does this one have remote start ?

[@thaleon1055]

I got the premium trim and it does with the my mazda app

[@GypsyRanger]

Beautiful SUV. I think it's by far the best looking vehicle in it's class. However, the dashboard design is uninspiring and the interior seats, door panels and vinyl trim all look very low grade. Finally, this vehicle needs a power boost, ideally from a PHEV setup.

[@JSS]

Do you like the 219 HP Hybrid powertrain coming at the end of the year?

[@GypsyRanger]

I’d like to see what that new drivetrain looks like and how it performs. However another 30 hps is really not going to make much of a difference. There should be a PHEV setup with 250+HPs and 225lbs of torque as a min.

[@dareeltoro6681]

This engine struggles in this car, very underpowered as a NA. It moves the CX5 better.

[@Beeranden]

What are the main differences between the 2025 and 2024? Is it worth going up to the 25 if considering the 24? Seems like updates are minimal.

[@NewYorkMan36]

The '24 and '25 models exhibit a few distinctions. I'm comparing the same trim because I own the same trim model '24 Firstly, the engine plastic cover differs between the two models, and I personally favor the one featured in the '24 model based on personal preference. Secondly, the presence of a rear seat alert in the '25 model is inconsequential to me as I habitually store items in the trunk or on the floor, rather than on the rear seats. Lastly, although the '25 model comes equipped with a wireless charger, its effectiveness is not particularly noteworthy.

[@johnsanford3596]

In addition to what NYM36 said, there is a Hybrid powertrain (Toyota's 4th generation system) coming to a dealer near you before years end.

[@t.k.morris]

@@NewYorkMan36 Does the 2024 model have cylinder deactivation or the start/stop annoyance?

[@NewYorkMan36]

@@t.k.morris Yes. The non-turbo engines come with cylinder deactivation, and the turbo ones come with i-stop.

Are heated mirrors available on the lowest trim? If not they should be, I'm not spending a couple grand for heated mirrors and things i don't want or need.

[@UncleWally3]

No. I’m in the market and I’m waiting to see what 2025 brings but I suspect it’ll be ‘26 until significant improvements are incorporated. That said, when the “new” model is released I may take advantage of incentives for ‘24 unsold vehicles. Besides,prices are going down, not up!

[@t.k.morris]

Does the CX-5 have a full height spare also?

[@lmills3211]

My 2024 CX50 is exactly the same as this... color, package and all. One thing... mine was over $40K.

@@JSS I think I would be happy with any of the three trims, mainly just looking for an nd2 for the upgraded engine. But it would have to be manual, that’s a deal breaker for me 😂. I’m not too picky on the color I’m just looking for the best price, but I really like the red, gray, and the deep crystal.

[@UncleWally3]

Factually, the ‘25 is pretty much identical to previous years; tells me to wait for a model change. Correct?

Yes, the Hybrid is the new thing for 2025. I expect a refresh or re-gen in a couple years.

More comfortable, in my opinion. I've always found mazda seats to be stiff and just all-around uncomfortable. The cx50 has the most comfortable seats out of all the mazdas I've been in. If I had to pick one out of the whole line up to take on a road trip based off of comfort, it would hands down be the cx50.

Less headroom, bit less back seat leg room, poor mileage, poor outward visibility etc..are the main issues for me.

Hey, the statement isn't totally on point. I've got the same trim 24, and I average 31 miles per gallon. How you drive really makes a difference in how much gas you use. When I'm on long road trips and I do the math, I get 37.5 to 39 mpg. That's after dividing the distance by how much gas I bought. I set the cruise control to 70 mph.
