The 2025 Mazda CX-5: High-Performance Engineering for the Modern Canadian Road
January 05 2026,
True performance isn't just about 0–60 times; it’s about how a vehicle handles the chaos of real-world driving. The 2025 Mazda CX-5 uses sophisticated G-Vectoring Control Plus to subtly shift weight and grip as you steer, making every corner feel smoother and every passenger feel more secure.
Where Power Meets Control

The 2025 Mazda CX-5 is built for drivers who want more than basic point-A-to-B transportation. Under the hood, the available Skyactiv-G turbocharged engine delivers up to 256 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque, giving the CX-5 strong, smooth acceleration that feels confident when merging, passing, or heading up long highway stretches. Even the naturally aspirated engine feels responsive, thanks to Mazda’s focus on real-world drivability rather than just numbers on paper.
Standard i-Activ AWD Confidence
One of the standout performance features of the 2025 Mazda CX-5 is standard i-Activ all-wheel drive on every trim. Instead of reacting after traction is lost, this system constantly monitors road conditions and driving inputs to adjust power proactively. That means better grip during wet roads, snowy mornings, and unpredictable Ontario weather, without the driver needing to think twice.
Mi-Drive That Adapts to You
Mazda Intelligent Drive Select, better known as Mi-Drive, lets you tailor the CX-5’s behaviour to match the moment. Normal mode keeps things balanced and efficient, Sport mode sharpens throttle response for more engaging drives, and Off-Road mode optimizes traction for rougher conditions. It’s a subtle feature that makes a noticeable difference behind the wheel.
G-Vectoring Control Plus Stability

Mazda’s G-Vectoring Control Plus works quietly in the background to improve stability and cornering confidence. By making small, precise adjustments to engine torque, the CX-5 feels more planted through turns and smoother on long drives. It’s one of those features you don’t see, but you definitely feel.
