Comparison: 2023 Mazda CX-50 vs 2022 Mazda CX-5
This summer we had the opportunity to get behind the wheel of the CX-50 and then right after, the 2022 CX-5 Sport. Under their shells, the two vehicles may seem identical, but we wanted to see if the CX-50 is more than just a disguised version of the already-very-good CX-5.Let's be clear, the CX-50 is not a bloated or modified CX-5 adapted for off-roading.
From a distance, the CX-50 looks pretty much like the CX-5; to the uninitiated eye, there’s not much difference. But the Mazda connoisseur will notice some extra curves above the wheels and the plastic that surrounds the entire lower body, as well as the headlights that adopt a new design specific to the newest crop of Mazda models.
And yes, we can consider the CX-50 the adventurous child of the Mazda family. Just like the Outback Wilderness from Subaru, the CX-50 was built to go off-road, within reasonable limits of course.
On the multimedia front, all base CX-50s come with a 10.25-inch widescreen display. Most functions, such as selecting a radio station, making a phone call or using the navigation system, are done through the control wheel on the lower portion of the centre console. This generally works well and helps keep your eyes on the road. Even Apple Carplay and Android Auto are now connected via Bluetooth and navigating within these applications is done very easily via this wheel.

Best SUVs of 2022Looking like a taller, more rugged Mazda 3 hatchback, the 2022 CX-30 snuggles up next to the CX-5 on the small end of the brand's SUV lineup. Its curvaceous exterior design and near-premium cabin give the CX-30 an upscale appearance that almost puts it in contention with subcompact luxury crossovers such as the Audi Q3 and the BMW X1, but its pricing is more aligned with mainstream subcompact SUVs such as the Hyundai Kona and the Volkswagen Taos. The entry-level engine is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder, which delivers tepid acceleration; hot-shoe drivers will find the optional turbocharged 2.5-liter far more desirable. Handling is agile and the CX-30's on-road demeanor is reminiscent of Mazda's sportier offerings, which we greatly appreciate; so much so, that we gave it an Editors' Choice award. A generous helping of infotainment and driver-assistance features is standard and, starting this year, so is all-wheel drive.Review, Pricing, and Specs
