Every Mazda CX-50 comes standard with i-Activ AWD, so you get all-weather traction confidence built in, no upgrade required.

Every trim comes standard with a 10.25-inch full-color touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, four USB-C ports, and Alexa Built-In for hands-free voice commands. The interface is quick and easy to use, keeping your eyes where they belong.
Step into the upper trims and the experience gets even better. The Bose 12-speaker premium audio system, available on Premium and above, brings a genuinely impressive sound to both daily commutes and long road trips.
