The 2024 Mazda CX-50 is available in ten trims: S Select Package, S Preferred Package, S Preferred Plus Package, S Premium Package, S Premium Plus Package, Turbo, Turbo Meridian Edition, Turbo Premium Package, and Turbo Premium Plus Package. Mazda keeps things pretty simple with two powertrain options for the CX-50. Power comes from a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine making 187 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque. The second engine is a turbocharged version of the 2.5L that produces 256 horsepower. Both engines are mated to an efficient Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). The CX-50 comes standard with all-wheel drive.
The base model CX-50 is more basic than other versions but is still equipped with plenty of nice features. Air conditioning, cruise control, power door locks and power windows are all generally expected, and all are present. However, more upscale items that come standard on the S include 17-inch wheels, a 10.25-inch touchscreen display, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, rearview camera, LED daytime running lights and audio controls on the steering wheel.
The mid-grade S Preferred Plus adds a power liftgate, heated front seats, a 10-way power driver seat, automatic dual-zone climate control, an HD radio, 4 USB ports, and push button start.
The Premium Plus takes the equipment to another level with black exterior accents, auto-high beams, a power sunroof, heated and ventilated front seats, leather upholstery, satellite radio, a premium 12-speaker sound system, head-up display, and a leather wrapped steering wheel.
The Turbo trim features the more powerful engine with auto-start stop, paddle shifters, 20-inch wheels, leather seats, driver seat memory, and a garage door opener.
The Turbo Premium Plus trim sits at the top of the lineup and includes directionally adaptive headlights, heated rear seats, voice activated navigation, real-time traffic and weather, hands-free liftgate, wireless device charging, front and rear parking sensors, and a surround view camera system.
Numerous safety systems come standard 8 airbags, adaptive cruise control, active lane departure, blind spot warning, forward collision mitigation, rear collision warning, front pedestrian detection, and a driver attention alert.
