The 2026 Mazda CX-5 is the highly anticipated third generation of one of our favorite compact SUVs, and it's now bigger than before but thankfully still handsome.
The new CX-5 features more angular headlights that have a more integrated relationship with the reshaped grille.
It's hard to tell from these photos, but the new CX-5 is 4.5 inches longer than its predecessor, with a three-inch-longer wheelbase.
The CX-5 comes standard with a 187-hp naturally aspirated 2.5-liter four-cylinder paired with a six-speed automatic and all-wheel drive.
If you squint (or zoom in), you can see the new "MAZDA" logo that's spelled out on the ute's rear liftgate.
We love Mazda's rich Soul Red paint, and no one can argue that it looks great on the new CX-5.
The CX-5 now appears to have a taller roofline that tapers less over the cargo area, which is now bigger than before.
The 2026 CX-5 can be optioned with 19-inch wheels as well as a panoramic sunroof.
While the model pictured here has a gas-fed four-pot engine, a Mazda-made hybrid system is coming in 2027.
Take a breath and just appreciate the serenity of this photo: a 2026 Mazda CX-5 on a cobblestone driveway somewhere beautiful.
Mazda hasn't released pricing for the 2026 CX-5, but we will find out before it goes on sale early next year.
