PERFORMANCE
MAZDA CX-70

If you’re ready to support a greener tomorrow, the Mazda CX-70 can help. This model is available in two hybrid variants, providing the longevity between refueling you crave without compromising the power you know Mazda can deliver.

Mild Hybrid Magic

Let’s discuss the Mazda CX-70’s mild-hybrid powertrain first. It pairs a 3.3L e-Skyactiv®-G inline-6 turbo engine with an 11 kW M-Hybrid Boost system to produce up to 340 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. Every time you step on the gas, you’ll experience the best of what a turbocharged V6 engine and an electric motor can do.

This model's powertrain is bolstered by i-Activ AWD® and the e-Skyactiv®-Drive 8-speed automatic transmission. This combination offers slip-free, high-traction adventures and precision acceleration.

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. Conversely, this model achieves an EPA-estimated 24 city/28 highway MPG rating. *

Plug In to Play

Drivers interested in an electric vehicle but not ready to commit will enjoy the Mazda CX-70 plug-in hybrid! It blends a 2.5L e-Skyactiv® 4-cylinder engine with a rechargeable 68-kW e-Skyactiv®-PHEV 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 miles**
  • EPA-estimated total range of 490 miles**

The plug-in hybrid Mazda CX-70 has the same drivetrain and transmission but has a maximum towing capacity of 3,500 pounds.

INTERIOR
MAZDA CX-70

The Mazda CX-70 treats you to hybrid powertrains that keep your wallet happy and allow you more interruption-free fun. It also provides ample interior space and creature comforts that feel like home.

Crew and Cargo

The Mazda CX-70 can seat up to five passengers, allowing everyone to share up to 141.6 cubic feet of breathing room. 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

There’s accommodating room for your favorite people and their essentials! With all seats occupied, you’ll have 39.6 cubic feet of trunk space for handbags, groceries, golf clubs, luggage, and more! When you use the 60/40 split fold-down and reclining second-row seats, 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 creature comforts that put you in the literal lap of luxury. The Mazda CX-70 is not shy when it comes to its standard offerings. Enjoy these luxuries:

  • 3-zone automatic climate control
  • Moonroof
  • Heated front seats
  • Leather upholstery

You can double down on your comfort when you upgrade to a higher trim level, which welcomes the following amenities:

  • 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with power lumbar support and 2-position memory
  • Ventilated front seats
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Nappa leather upholstery
  • Heated rear seats

You deserve to treat yourself. Go wild with the Mazda CX-70.

TECHNOLOGY
MAZDA CX-70

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.

Cockpit Convenience

The Mazda CX-70 comes standard with the Mazda Connect™ infotainment system, which features a 12.3-inch touchscreen. This screen can be utilized via touch, voice command, or the Multifunction Commander control.

Pairing your smartphone to the multimedia setup is easy with wireless Apple CarPlay™, Android Auto™, and Bluetooth®. Alexa Built-In also comes standard, allowing you to bring Alexa on your commutes and command her as you would at home!

You can upgrade your cockpit with two unique features. The Mazda Navigation System is one option, and it includes an off-road navigation feature. The other is the 12-speaker Bose® Centerpoint® surround sound system with AudioPilot®, which will rouse audiophiles near and far!

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 mitigate and help prevent accidents, keep you in your lane, take the edge off long commutes, and watch you behind the wheel. Some 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

When you upgrade your Mazda with the available Secondary Collision Reduction System, Front Cross Traffic Alert and Brake, and Turning Across Path Alert and Brake, you get even more protection.
