EFFICIENCY
If you’re ready to support a greener tomorrow, the Mazda CX-70 is here to help with two fuel-efficiency configurations: a standard mild hybrid and an optional plug-in hybrid (PHEV). Regardless of which configuration you choose, you’ll enjoy the longevity between refueling without compromising the power you know Mazda can deliver.
Mild Hybrid Magic
Every Mazda CX-70 is engineered with the environment in mind. It pairs a 3.3L e-Skyactiv®-G turbocharged engine with a 48V Mild Hybrid (M-Boost) system to produce up to 280 horsepower (HP) and 332 lb-ft of torque.
With the Mazda CX-70, your daily commute feels effortless. The i-Activ AWD® system offers traction-boosting control for added stability on low-friction surfaces and when tackling tight turns. Coupled with the advanced 8-speed automatic transmission, the Mazda CX-70 delivers smooth acceleration with less hesitation.
The Mazda’s versatility is shown through its strength and endurance. The Mazda CX-70 can tow up to 5,000 pounds with the proper equipment. Yet, this model achieves an EPA-estimated 24 city/28 highway MPG rating.1
Plug In to Play
Drivers interested in an electric vehicle but not ready to commit will enjoy the available Mazda CX-70 plug-in hybrid (PHEV) configuration. It blends a 2.5L e-Skyactiv® engine with a rechargeable 68-kW electric motor, producing a mighty 323 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. With this powertrain equipped, the Mazda CX-70 achieves:
- EPA-estimated EV range of 26 miles2
- EPA-estimated total range of 490 miles2
The plug-in hybrid Mazda CX-70 has the same drivetrain and transmission, delivering the same smooth control, but has a maximum towing capacity of 3,500 pounds.
INTERIOR
Within your dynamic life, you spend a lot of time behind the wheel of your SUV. The Mazda CX-70 makes every moment feel effortless, thanks to its premium amenities. From ample space to home-like features, there’s a lot to love about the Mazda CX-70.
Room to Grow
The Mazda CX-70 is the type of SUV that grows with your needs. Riders will appreciate the 141.6-cubic-foot passenger volume, since it provides plenty of space for up to five passengers to stretch out during the ride. What does that look like between the two rows? We took out the tape measure to find out:
- Headroom (front/rear): 39.7/39.3 inches
- Legroom (front/rear): 41.7/39.4 inches
Even with all seats occupied, there’s still room for everyone’s belongings. The minimum 39.6 cubic feet of trunk space offers space for handbags, groceries, golf clubs, luggage, and more! With the rear seats folded, you’ll gain up to 75.3 cubic feet of space, perfect for longer cargo.
Luxury at Your Fingertips
Space is a hot commodity, and so are premium amenities that put you in the literal lap of luxury. The Mazda CX-70 is not shy when it comes to its standard offerings. The seats are adorned with premium leather upholstery, and the front seats include heated/ventilated.
Additional standard amenities include:
- 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with power lumbar support
- 3-zone automatic climate control
- Heated and ventilated front seats
- Heated rear seats
- Heated steering wheel
Across both rows, the Mazda CX-70 creates a space where everyone can sit back, relax, and enjoy the commute ahead.
INNOVATION
As the driver, the cockpit is your domain. The Mazda CX-70 treats you to high-definition displays, a user-friendly infotainment system, and wire-free connectivity, making this SUV a master of convenience. Speaking of which, protecting you is second nature, thanks to its standard safety suite.
Every Commute, Simplified
Life moves fast, but the Mazda CX-70 helps keep you connected. This luxury SUV comes standard with an intuitive infotainment system, which features a 12.3-inch touchscreen display and wireless Apple CarPlay®/Android Auto™. These features help keep you connected and entertained across every mile.
Beyond traditional infotainment, the Mazda CX-70 aims to make every moment feel seamless. It achieves this with a standard wireless phone charger to keep devices powered up, as well as an optional Mazda Online Navigation system, which provides turn-by-turn directions.
One of the most helpful features is standard Alexa Built-in. This advanced system brings the innovation of your home device with you on the road. Simply state your commands and marvel at the responsiveness of Alexa. From behind the wheel, you can even access compatible smart home devices to let your family know you’re bringing pizza home for dinner or to turn on the front lights remotely.
Enhanced Safety Senses
Every trim level of the Mazda CX-70 has i-Activsense®, Mazda’s driver-assistance suite. It includes several features designed to work alongside your safe driving habits to monitor and alert you to hazards you may have missed. When certain conditions are met, these features may assist with braking or steering to help avoid a collision. Notable features include:
- Blind Spot Monitoring
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert
- Lane-keep Assist and Lane Departure Warning System
- Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go
- Driver Attention Alert
For even more visibility, upgrading to a higher trim level grants access to the available 360° View Monitor with See-Through View and Trailer Hitch View. This cutting-edge system turns the hood of your SUV invisible, making it easy to see curbs or objects that would otherwise be hidden from sight.
